The device description and intended use clearly define a physical container for sharps disposal, with no mention of any computational or analytical capabilities.
No.
The device is a sharps collector and is intended to provide a receptacle for used, contaminated medical sharps, acting as a waste container rather than a device for treating or diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device is a sharps collector container, designed for the disposal of contaminated medical sharps. It does not perform any diagnostic function.
No
The device is a physical container made of plastic, designed to hold medical sharps. It is described as being blow molded and having specific dimensions and weight. There is no mention of any software component.
Based on the provided information, the PureWay® Sharps Collector container is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use of the PureWay® Sharps Collector container is to provide a receptacle for used, contaminated medical sharps and for enclosure during transport to ultimate disposal. This is a containment and disposal function, not a diagnostic function.
- Device Description: The device is described as a container made of plastic with features for safe disposal of sharps. It does not contain reagents, instruments, or software intended for the examination of specimens derived from the human body.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze or test any biological samples or provide information about a patient's health status.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) to diagnose, monitor, or screen for diseases or conditions. The PureWay® Sharps Collector container does not perform any such function.

Device Description
The PureWay® Sharps Collector container is blow molded with High Density Polyethylene plastic and is available in 1.2 Gallon and 3 Gallon sizes. The containers are identical except for capacity. The device has a circular opening at the top with an insert to prevent hand access and items from falling out. The insert is made of Low Density Polyethylene plastic, is also circular limiting the opening to 1.25 inches. The opening allows for a vertical sharps drop. Once the PureWay® Sharps Collector container is full, the cap is placed on top of the opening and screwed close for a tight seal.
Each container is non-sterile, single use, disposable infectious waste container).
The containers are designed to contain and hold sharps such as angio-caths, blood needles, lancets, cap needles, and various sized syringes. The shape of the container will be rectangular and the only access to the container is through the screw top opening or aperture.
In summary, all PureWay® Sharps Collector containers are blow molded using High Density Polyethylene plastic, non-sterile, disposable, sharps containers (infectious waste container). All the devices allow for onehanded disposal of sharps and offer a means of closure.

Non-Clinical Performance Data
The PureWay® Sharps Collector container has been performance tested and demonstrates compliance with the recognized consensus standard, ISO 23907 First edition 2012-09-01 Sharps injury protection – Requirements and test methods - Sharps containers (Stability, Handle Strength, Penetration, Handling and Leak Resistance). In addition, the FDA Guidance Document "Guidance on the content of Format of Premarket Notification (510(k)) submission for Sharps, dated October 1993, was used to help identify applicable physical and mechanical features of the subject device.
Testing was conducted in accordance with:
- ISO 23907 First edition 2012-09-01 Sharps injury protection Requirements and test methods Sharps ● containers (Stability, Handle Strength, Penetration, Handling and Leak Resistance)
- CSA Z316.6-07 Evaluation of single-use and reusable medical sharps containers for bio hazardous and ● cytotoxic waste - Fill Capacity
- ASTM F2132-01
The performance testing demonstrates compliance with all the recognized consensus standards listed above. Testing results show the PureWay® Sharps Collector containers (sizes 1.2, 2 and 3 qallon) pass all applicable and required tests. An independent testing laboratory performed all the test listed in this section according to the standards requirements. Additional testing data is presented in the performance testing section. In addition, the FDA Guidance Document "Guidance on the Content of Premarket Notification (510(k)) submissions for Sharps, dated October 1993, was used to help identify applicable physical and mechanical features of the subject device.
i. Conclusion
The subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
