The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical and material properties of a pen needle, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
No.
The device, pen needles, is used for the administration of fluids like insulin, but it does not treat or cure a disease itself; it facilitates the delivery of therapeutic substances.
No
The device is a pen needle intended for the subcutaneous injection of fluids, not for diagnostic purposes. Its function is to administer substances, not to detect or analyze medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical medical device (pen needles) and its mechanical function. There is no mention of software as the primary component or function.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the subcutaneous injection of fluids (like insulin and exenatide) using a pen injector. This is a direct administration of a substance into the body, not a test performed in vitro (outside the body) on a sample from the body.
- Device Description: The description details a needle designed to facilitate the delivery of medication from a pen injector into the patient's tissue. It does not describe any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
- Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions
The device is clearly designed for drug delivery, which falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The pen needles are intended for use with pen injector devices for subcutaneous injection of fluids, including insulin and exenatide.

Device Description
All of the subject device pen needles are sterile, non-pyrogenic, single use needles designed to be used with commercially available pen-injectors for the administration of prescribed fluids. Each needle is individually packaged in a sealed protective container with a peel tab. The subject device pen needles are used by peeling back the peel tab. The hub of the currently marketed Clickfine Pen Needle is snapping or screwing onto the threaded end of the pen injector. The modified Penfine Classic Pen Needle is attached to pen injectors with only a "screwing" motion. For all needles the back end of the cannula punctures the rubber injection port of the drug reservoir in the pen-injector. The outer protective cap is then removed. The inner protective cap will remain over the needle until the fluid is ready to be injected. When the injection is needed, the inner protective cap is removed and the needle is inserted into the chosen site. The pen-injector automatically delivers the fluid through the needle. The protective cap is replaced and the needle is then unscrewed for the pen injector, discarded and replaced with a new needle before the next injection.

Summary of Performance Studies
As part of the Design Control Activities, Ypsomed evaluated the potential risks, hazards or hazardous situations, potential clinical impact on the patient, identified the appropriate risk control measure and acceptability criteria associated with each change in the modified devices. Then, each risk was mitigated through appropriate verification and/or validation activities which were determined to be the testing specified in the following international and internal standards and protocols. This testing confirmed that the subject devices are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
All Subject Device Pen Needles have met the requirements of the relevant sections of the following standards:
- . ISO 11608-2:2012 Needle based injection systems for medical use – Requirements and test methods – Part 2: Needles
- . ISO 9626:1991/Amd.1:2001 Stainless steel needle tubing for the manufacture of medical devices
- ISO 7864:1993 Sterile hypodermic needles for single use
The verifications have shown evidence that the subject device pen needles meet the acceptance criteria of these standards. Based on the results it can be concluded that the device performance is acceptable for the product.

Dear Mr. Leichter:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

8.5 Predicate Device: K131125 Clickfine Pen Needles
- Purpose of Submission: To add a second product line of needles (Penfine Classic Pen 8.6 Needles) that are attached to pens by using only a "classic" screwing or twisting action in addition to the existing Clickfine Pen Needle line that can also be "clicked" or "snapped" onto the pen. The submission also includes other minor changes to both product lines, including the addition of needle point geometry with 6-bevels (in addition to the existing 3-bevel geometry), changes to the needle hub, labeling and sterilization cycle.

8.7 Device Description
All of the subject device pen needles are sterile, non-pyrogenic, single use needles designed to be used with commercially available pen-injectors for the administration of prescribed fluids. Each needle is individually packaged in a sealed protective container with a peel tab. The subject device pen needles are used by peeling back the peel tab. The hub of the currently marketed Clickfine Pen Needle is snapping or screwing onto the threaded end of the pen injector. The modified Penfine Classic Pen Needle is attached to pen injectors with only a "screwing" motion. For all needles the back end of the cannula punctures the rubber injection port of the drug reservoir in the pen-injector. The outer protective cap is then removed. The inner protective cap will remain over the needle until the fluid is ready to be injected. When the injection is needed, the inner protective cap is removed and the needle is inserted into the chosen site. The pen-injector automatically delivers the fluid through the needle. The protective cap is replaced and the needle is then unscrewed for the pen injector, discarded and replaced with a new needle before the next injection.
- 8.8 Intended Use
The intended use of the modified device remains the same as the predicate device -Clickfine Pen Needles (K131125):
The pen needles are intended for use with pen injector devices for subcutaneous injection of fluids, including insulin and exenatide.
- 8.9 Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence Discussion The technological characteristics have not changed. All of the materials, processes and operating principles of the modified needles are identical to the currently marketed needles. The Penfine Classic Pen Needle has a modified interface to only allow attachment to compatible cartridge holders through a twisting or screwing motion, while the current device can be snapped, or "clicked" onto the cartridge holder. The only other change is a different grinding of the needle point to produce six, rather than three surfaces. Otherwise the needles have the same design and intended use as the currently marketed product and are compatible with the same injection pens. As such, the subject needles are substantially equivalent to the predicate Clickfine Pen Needles (K131125).

As part of the Design Control Activities, Ypsomed evaluated the potential risks, hazards or hazardous situations, potential clinical impact on the patient, identified the appropriate risk control measure and acceptability criteria associated with each change in the modified devices. Then, each risk was mitigated through appropriate verification and/or validation activities which were determined to be the testing specified in the following international and internal standards and protocols.
