Intended Use
The TurboSEAL™ Nasogastric Aspiration Tube (NGAT) is intended for gastric lavage and the administration of nutritional supplements through the distal tube port. It is also indicated for the aspiration of refluxed gastric fluid from the distal esophageal aspiration areas.
Device Description
The TurboSEAL™ Nasogastric Aspiration Tube (NGAT) is a typical Nasogastric Tube (NGT) allowing for enteral feeding, gastric decompression and gastric lavage. Connection of the device to standard hospital suction enables the application of suction to two separate locations (the Distal and Proximal Aspiration Areas) located at the distal end of the device. Aspiration at these sites allows for the removal of gastric fluid that has entered the esophaqus. Aspiration is limited to one aspiration site at a time, for a maximum duration of 5 hours at each site.

Yes
The device is used for medical purposes such as gastric lavage, nutritional administration, and aspiration of gastric fluid, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The device is described as a nasogastric tube for gastric lavage, administration of nutritional supplements, and aspiration of gastric fluid. These are therapeutic and interventional uses, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly indicates it is a physical tube (Nasogastric Aspiration Tube) and the performance studies describe physical testing (Biocompatibility, Sterilization, Packaging, Tensile Strength Testing, etc.), not software validation.

Based on the provided information, the TurboSEAL™ Nasogastric Aspiration Tube (NGAT) is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for gastric lavage, administration of nutritional supplements, and aspiration of gastric fluid from the esophagus. These are all procedures performed on the patient's body, not on samples taken from the patient's body for diagnostic purposes.
  • Device Description: The description details a tube for insertion into the body to manage fluids and provide nutrition. It doesn't mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information
    • Using reagents or assays
    • Measuring biomarkers

Device Description:

The TurboSEAL™ Nasogastric Aspiration Tube (NGAT) is a typical Nasogastric Tube (NGT) allowing for enteral feeding, gastric decompression and gastric lavage. Connection of the device to standard hospital suction enables the application of suction to two separate locations (the Distal and Proximal Aspiration Areas) located at the distal end of the device. Aspiration at these sites allows for the removal of gastric fluid that has entered the esophaqus. Aspiration is limited to one aspiration site at a time, for a maximum duration of 5 hours at each site.

Intended Use. Indications for Use. Contraindications:

The TurboSEAL™ Nasogastric Aspiration Tube (NGAT) is intended for gastric decompression, gastric lavage and the administration of nutritional supplements through the distal tube port. It is also indicated for the aspiration of small quantities of refluxed gastric fluid from the distal esophaqeal aspiration areas.

The TurboSEAL™ NGAT is contraindicated for pregnant women, pediatric, and neonatal use.

Comparison of Indications for Use / Intended Use:

  • . Intended Use Comparison
    • The TurboSEAL™ NGAT and the predicate Davol® Nasogastric Sump Tube O have similar intended uses. Both devices are intended for gastric decompression, gastric layage, and the administration of nutritional supplements,
    • The TurboSEAL™ NGAT and the predicate Moss Mark IV Nasal Tube have O similar intended uses. Both devices are intended for gastric decompression, administration of nutritional supplements, and gastric fluid aspiration.
  • Indications for Use Comparison .
    • The TurboSEAL™ NGAT and the predicate Davol® Nasogastric Sump Tube o have similar indications for use. Both devices are indicated for gastric decompression, gastric lavage, and the administration of nutritional supplements.
    • The TurboSEAL™ NGAT and the predicate Moss Mark IV Nasal Tube have O similar indications for use. Both devices are indicated for gastric decompression, enteral feeding (je administration of nutritional supplements), and gastric fluid aspiration. Although the cleared indications for the Moss Mark IV Nasal Tube do not specifically state that the device is indicated for gastric fluid aspiration: the cleared instructions for use for the product specifically point to a number of aspiration areas on the device diagram. The aspiration areas are described as the "Esophageal [Aspiration] Orifices," "Gastric Aspiration Orifices," and "Duodenal Aspiration Orifices." Therefore, the Moss Mark IV Nasal Tube is also indicated for gastric fluid aspiration within the Instructions for Use cleared for the device.
    • The TurboSEAL™ NGAT is substantially equivalent to the indications for use of o both predicate devices. The TurboSEAL™ NGAT has no additional indications for use beyond those of the predicate devices.

Comparison of Technological Characteristics:

The TurboSEAL™ NGAT has similar technological characteristics as compared to its identified predicate devices. All are multilumen nasogastric tubes that allow of the bidirectional movement of fluids in and out of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.

  • . Gastric Decompression
    • o Gastric decompression involves the removal of fluids and/or gas from the stomach to relieve excess gastric pressure. Gastric decompression is indicated by all three devices, and is achieved by using a lumen within the tube to vent excess pressure.
  • . Gastric Lavage
    • Gastric lavage is the process of introducing and subsequently removing fluids o from the stomach to cleanse the contents of the stomach. Both the TurboSEAL™ NGAT and the Davol® Nasogastric Sump Tube are indicated for gastric lavage.

7

  • Administration of Nutritional Supplements ●
    • All three devices are indicated for the administration of nutrition. Nutrition is o administered through the use of valves and polymeric tubing providing a direct fluid path between the nutritional supplement source (eg feeding bag or feeding pump) and the GI tract of the patient.
  • . Gastric Fluid Aspiration
    • Gastric fluid aspiration is the process of removing air and/or fluid from the GI tract o using a negative pressure source. Both the TurboSEAL™ NGAT and Moss Mark IV Nasal Tube are indicated for gastric fluid aspiration. Gastric fluid aspiration is achieved in both devices by applying negative pressure to the tube, causing the aspiration of fluid at various aspiration areas (ie aspiration orifices) along the length of the tube. The Moss Mark IV Nasal Tube contains esophageal, gastric, and duodenal aspiration areas. The TurboSEAL™ NGAT has nearly identical esophageal aspiration areas, and does not contain gastric or duodenal aspiration areas.

Summary of Performance Testing:

TurboSEAL, L.P. has performed extensive verification and validation testing to demonstrate the substantial equivalence of the TurboSEAL™ NGAT to the Davol® Nasogastric Sump Tube and the Moss Mark IV Nasal Tube. The TurboSEAL™ NGAT has been subjected to safety, performance, verification and validation testing to ensure that the device meets all of its functional requirements and intended uses. Testing has been performed to ensure that the device complies with all applicable industry and safety standards. The following list summarizes the testing performed on the TurboSEAL™ NGAT:

  • Biocompatibility
  • Sterilization ●
  • Packaging ●
  • Shelf Life
  • . Dimensional Inspection
  • Liquid Leakage Testing
  • Visual Inspection
  • Tensile Strength Testing
  • Simulated Use

  • Gastric Fluid Compatibility
    • Porcine Animal Study
      • o Visual Examination (Gastroscopy)
      • o Histology
      • Human Factors/Usability o

As demonstrated by the results of the verification and validation testing, the minor differences in technological characteristics between the TurboSEAL™ NGAT and its predicate devices do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness.
