Intended Use
The NovoPen Echo® is a re-useable pen injector designed for single patient use by diabetics for the self-injection of a desired dose of insulin. The pen injector uses PenFill® 3 mL cartridge of NovoLog®, 100 units/mL (U-100) finsulin aspart (rDNA origin) injection] and a single use detachable and disposable pen needle (supplied separately). The pen injector allows the user to dial the desired dose from 0.5 to 30 units in 0.5 unit increments.
Device Description
The NovoPen Echo® (STJ) is a reusable mechanical pen-injector capable of injecting a dose of up to 30 units of insulin, in 0.5 unit increments, from a PenFill® 3 mL cartridge of NovoLog®, 100 units/mL (U-100) [Insulin aspart Injection (rDNA origin)] . The memory function enables the user of the device to see the quantity of last given dose and hours that have passed since last dose. The operation of the pen-injector for the injection of insulin is entirely independent of the operation of the memory function. The intended dose is mechanically set by rotating a dose button. The insulin is injected by depressing the dose button which via mechanical coupling causes the piston in the insulin cartridge to move forward thereby expelling the intended dose. The device has a memory function and liquid crystal display that allows the user to review the units of the last dose and the number of hours that have elapsed since the last dose was taken. Rotation of the dose button during dose setting causes a sensor to rotate within a coded cylinder. The movement detected by this sensor is stored for later display on the liquid crystal display in the dosage selector module as the number of units injected. The pen-injector is intended for use with PenFill® 3 mL cartridge of NovoLog", 100 units/mL (U-100) [Insulin aspart Injection (rDNA origin)] and a single-use, detachable and disposable pen needle (supplied separately by Novo Nordisk ).
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description details a mechanical pen injector with a memory function for tracking dose and time since last dose. The mechanism for dose setting and injection is described as entirely mechanical, and the memory function relies on a sensor detecting rotation, not AI/ML algorithms. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts in the document.

No.
A therapeutic device is one that treats a disease or condition. This device is an insulin pen, which is used to administer insulin, but the device itself does not contain the therapeutic agent (insulin), nor does it treat the condition; it is an administration device.

No

The device description indicates it is a pen injector for insulin, with a memory function for dose history, but it does not analyze patient data or provide medical diagnoses.

No

The device description clearly details a mechanical pen injector with a memory function and liquid crystal display, indicating it is a hardware device with integrated software, not a software-only device.

Based on the provided text, the NovoPen Echo® is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the self-injection of insulin by diabetics. This is a therapeutic delivery device, not a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.
  • Device Description: The description details a mechanical pen-injector for delivering insulin. While it has a memory function for tracking doses, this function is related to the delivery of the therapeutic agent, not the analysis of biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information
    • Using reagents or assays
    • Measuring biomarkers

The NovoPen Echo® is a drug delivery device.

Date: Version: Status: Page:

In order to improve manufacturability, production automation, and to align manufacturing with other devices within the NovoPen® family, the following changes have been implemented to NovoPen Echo®.

  • Update of software to support manufacturing automation as well as including other minor changes
  • . Update of selected components and component material changes for a small number of components
  • Labelling changes

The above changes do not affect intended use, indications for use, technological characteristics, functionality of components, principle of operation, shelf life, biocompatibility and device user interface. Therefore, NovoPen Echo® (manufactured in Novo Nordisk (NN), Site Tianjin, China) is substantially equivalent to Novo Nordisk's NovoPen Echo® (manufactured in NN, Site DMD, Denmark), cleared under 510(k) K123766 in August, 2013.

The term "substantial equivalence" as used in this 510(k) notification is limited to the definition of substantial equivalence as found in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as amended and as supplied under 21 CFR 807, Subpart E under which a device can be marketed without pre-market approval or reclassification. A determination of substantial equivalency under this notification is not intended to have any bearing whatsoever on the resolution of patent infringement suits or any other patent matters. No statement related to, or in support of substantial equivalence herein shall be construed as an admission against interest under the US Patent laws or their application by the court.

number of units injected. The pen-injector is intended for use with PenFill® 3 mL cartridge of NovoLog", 100 units/mL (U-100) [Insulin aspart Injection (rDNA origin)] and a single-use, detachable and disposable pen needle (supplied separately by Novo Nordisk ). NovoPen Echo® (STJ) is substantial equivalent to the primary predicate device NovoPen Echo® (DMD)

  1. Intended Use including Indication for Use:The Intended Use including Indication for Use for the modified device are as follows:

The Novo Pen Echo® is a re-usable pen injector designed for single-patient use by diabetics for the self-injection of a desired dose of insulin. The pen injector uses PenFill® 3 mL cartridge of NovoLog", 100 units/mL (U-100) [ [Insulin aspart Injection (rDNA origin)] and a single use detachable and disposable pen needle (supplied separately). The pen injector allows the user to dial the desired dose from 0.5 to 30 units in 0.5- unit increments.

6. Technological Characteristics:

The NovoPen Echo® (STJ) is considered substantially equivalent to the predicate device in intended use, principle of operation, materials, energy source and performance.

The injection technique used to administer insulin is the same as predicate device, NovoPen Echo® (DMD). Both devices require a needle to penetrate the subcutaneous layer of tissue, an insulin source and a plunger to push the insulin from the source, through the needle and into the subcutaneous layer of tissue. Both devices are capable of multiple injections from a single insulin source (cartridge).

Both devices have the same 0.5 increment dosing capability and comply with requirements specified in ISO11608-1:2012 Needle-based injection systems for medical use - Requirements and test methods - Part 1: Needle-based injection systems.

CONFIDENTIAL

Software verification and validation regression testing all static, unit, integration and system, tests as well as additional tests for the changes and related risk control measures was conducted and all tests passed.

Shelf Life:

The NovoPen Echo® has an in-use lifetime of 5 years provided that the pen is taken into use within two years of the production date. The NovoPen Echo® informs the user via the memory display when the pen has reached its end of life.

Conclusions:

In conclusion, the results of the testing demonstrate that NovoPen Echo® (STJ) is as safe and effective and performs as well as the predicate device.

The results of the testing to standards provide additional evidence that NovoPen Echo® (STJ) is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, NovoPen Echo® (DMD).

The differences between NovoPen Echo® (STJ) and the predicate device, NovoPen Echo® (DMD), do not raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness.
