The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical compression and sterilization, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
No.
The primary purpose of this device is to provide mechanical compression for hemostasis, not to diagnose, treat, or prevent a disease or condition through biological, pharmacological, or immunological means, which is typical of therapeutic devices. It acts as an aid for pressure application.
No
This device is a compression element designed to provide hemostasis (stop bleeding) at a vascular access site, not to diagnose a medical condition.
No
The device description explicitly states it is an "adjustable metal compression device" constructed of "high strength stainless steel," indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The description clearly states that the Bookwalter Gordon Adjustable Compression Element is a mechanical device used to apply external pressure to a vascular access site to achieve hemostasis (stop bleeding). It does not analyze any biological samples.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to provide hemostasis during and after catheterization procedures, which is a physical intervention, not a diagnostic test.
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a surgical or procedural device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Bookwalter Gordon Adjustable Compression Element is an adjustable metal compression device that provides an alternative to applying direct hand pressure to obtain hemostasis during vascular catheterization procedures. The device is secured to a surgical table by means of a compatible clamp which supports an articulating arm that allows positioning of the "metal hand" over the vascular access site. The hand has "fingers" that can be adjusted separately to apply compressive pressure to particular locations around the vascular access site. Once in place the Adjustable Compression Element remains securely in position thereby providing ongoing compression without intervention by the surgical staff although it can be adjusted at any time if so desired. The device is reusable and can be cleaned and sterilized in the hospital setting. The Adjustable Compression Element is constructed of high strength stainless steel for rigidity and durability during use. The system also has an available sterilization container to ensure effective reprocessing.
The Bookwalter Gordon Adjustable Compression Element consists of a Left Finger Subassembly, a Right Finger Subassembly, and a Center Block Subassembly which can be mounted onto an adjustable table mounted arm. The principal material of construction is 17-4 PH SS, which is hardened stainless steel. The adjustable arm and finger paddles can be positioned independently and locked into place to achieve the correct level of compression. Hemostasis is achieved through mechanical compression.

Intended Use:
The Bookwalter Gordon Adjustable Compression Element is indicated for use to provide hemostasis of the femoral vascular access site, during and following catheterization or cannulation procedures.
Technological Characteristics:
The Bookwalter Gordon Adjustable Compression Element consists of a Left Finger Subassembly, a Right Finger Subassembly, and a Center Block Subassembly which can be mounted onto an adjustable table mounted arm. The principal material of construction is 17-4 PH SS, which is hardened stainless steel. The adjustable arm and finger paddles can be positioned independently and locked into place to achieve the correct level of compression. Hemostasis is achieved through mechanical compression.
In comparison to the predicate device, the use of mechanical compression for hemostasis is the same. Both devices are mounted on an arm and feature adjustable height and pressure settings. The arm components are constructed of rigid materials and table mounted at the patient's side. The Bookwalter Gordon Adjustable Compression Element has a re-usable finger assembly as compared to a disposable circular disc or finger assembly on the predicate device.
The product has been evaluated to ensure that it meets mechanical requirements, biocompatibility needs, cleaning, sterilization and drying time.
Testing included the following:
Mechanical Performance, including:
- . Maximum compression force
- Expanding & contracting under full load .
- 2X force load ●
Steam Sterilization Efficacy Validation Dry Time Validation Cytotoxicity
The mechanical performance testing for maximum compression force, expanding and contracting under full load, and 2X force load test demonstrate that the subject device is capable of continuous compression without bending, or loosening. This testing demonstrates that the product is capable of performing compression and thereby hemostasis in the same manner as the predicate device.

Substantial Equivalence:
The design and function of the Bookwalter Gordon Adjustable Compression Element has been determined to be substantially equivalent to the CompressAR SuperComfort Disc and StrongArm SuperComfort System from Advanced Vascular Dynamics (K040615). Both products have the same indications for use and perform in a similar manner.
Conclusion:
Based on results of mechanical testing, basic design and function, the Bookwalter Gordon Adjustable Compression Element has been determined to be substantially equivalent to the CompressAR SuperComfort Disc and StrongArm SuperComfort System. The device provides sufficient compression to achieve hemostasis and can be mounted, positioned, and adjusted in a manner similar to the predicate. Validation testing for sterilization of all re-usable components has been completed successfully and cleaning rationale provided. Instructions provide user information for use, cleaning, and re-use.
