No
The device is a physical container for sharps and the description focuses on its material properties and structural integrity, with no mention of software, data processing, or AI/ML terms.
No
The device is a sharps container, intended for the safe disposal of medical sharps, and does not provide any therapeutic effect to a patient.
No
Explanation: A diagnostic device is used to diagnose a medical condition. This device is described as a receptacle for contaminated medical sharps, an enclosure for transport, and is made of puncture-resistant, leak-proof polypropylene. Its purpose is to safely contain and dispose of sharps, not to diagnose.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical container made of polypropylene with mounting accessories, indicating it is a hardware device, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to provide a receptacle for used medical sharps and act as an enclosure during transport for disposal. This is a physical containment function, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the physical characteristics of the container (material, size, lid style, mounting). It does not mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information.
- Lack of IVD Indicators: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing information about a patient's health status, disease, or condition
- Reagents, assays, or analytical methods
- Calibration or quality control procedures related to diagnostic testing
The device's function is purely for the safe handling and disposal of medical waste, which is a different regulatory category than in vitro diagnostics.

Device Description
Medline Sharps Containers are two-piece conventional, disposable sharps containers. The base container and its lid are made of puncture resistant, leak proof polypropylene. These containers are offered in various volumes, sizes, and lid styles. Mounting accessories (brackets) are available for use with 1g and 2g containers in locking and non-locking variations. The device is intended to be used by qualified personnel in health care facilities and other facilities in which medical sharps may be used. The device is not in contact with or available to the patient in normal use.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The safety and effectiveness of the Medline Sharps Containers are adequately supported by the substantial equivalence information, materials information, and Design Control activities referenced within this Premarket Notification.
Summary of Performance Testing:
- Container Stability: Meets ISO 23907 Requirements - Specimens were placed on a surface with an inclination of 15° in the most adverse position for toppling with no more than 0 failures per container.
- Handle Strength: Meets ISO 23907 Requirements - The sharps containers were filled to 50% of the fill line with de-ionized water and were then suspended by the handles for a period of at least 60 minutes; no failures were observed.
- Puncture Resistance: Meets ASTM F 2132 Requirements - Container was secured to the test apparatus using a specimen support plate with a 6mm diameter hole. The inside surface of the container was facing towards and perpendicular to the 21 gauge, 1 inch long needle. The needle was lowered vertically towards the test specimen at a rate of 100 mm/min, and was allowed to penetrate the test specimen; the puncture force was recorded. Per the acceptance criteria the average force was required to be greater3.4 lbf (15 N), and no single value from any region was allowed to be below 2.8 lbf.
- Resistance to Damage (Drop/Impact Test): Meets ISO 23907 Requirements – Drop tested at height of 1m per test standard. Testing resulted in no evidence of leakage or damage resulting in a breach of the sharps containment area. As such, all Medline products were found to meet the acceptance criteria for resistance to damage from a vertical drop. Additional 1m drop testing was conducted using subject containers with a 40 lb. load or capacity load (23 lbs for smaller sharps container), intended to simulate OSHA safe lifting limits. Five containers were used for each test orientation for each tested model. The test allowed only a single failure per test condition. The containers passed this test.

Summary of Technological Characteristics
The subject device and predicate device differ in container dimensions; sharps aperture features; use of mounting accessories and container capacities. The differences in design are intended to address specific site and user needs. Any risks resulting from design differences from the predicate device have been adequately mitigated with the performance testing, site-of-use labeling, and use with appropriate mounting accessories. The differences in technological characteristics do not impair the subject device models from their intended functions of disposal and storage of sharps waste.
