Intended Use
The PowerMidline™ Catheters are indicated for short term access to the peripheral venous system for selected intravenous therapies, blood sampling, and power injection of contrast media. These catheters may be used for any patient population with consideration given to adequacy of vascular anatomy and appropriateness of the procedure. The PowerMidline™ Catheters are suitable for use with power injectors.
Device Description
Bard Access Systems, Inc.'s (BAS) PowerMidline™ catheters are a family of peripherally placed catheters made from radiopaque body-softening polyurethane materials. Each PowerMidline™ catheter is designed with kink-resistant, reverse taper design. The PowerMidline™ catheters are offered in a 3 F Single Lumen (SL) and 4 F Single Lumen (SL) configuration for reliable short term (less than 30 days) vascular access. These catheters are offered in 20 cm trimmable lengths. The PowerMidline™ catheters are suitable for use with power injectors.
More Information

No
The summary describes a physical medical device (catheter) and its intended use, materials, and performance testing, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

No.
The device description and intended use indicate it is a catheter for vascular access and power injection, not for treating a disease or condition. While used in therapies, it is an access tool rather than a therapeutic agent itself.

No

The device is a catheter used for vascular access, not for diagnosing medical conditions. Its primary functions are for intravenous therapies, blood sampling, and contrast media injection.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical catheter made from polyurethane materials, which is a hardware component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "short term access to the peripheral venous system for selected intravenous therapies, blood sampling, and power injection of contrast media." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for accessing the circulatory system and delivering substances or drawing blood.
  • Device Description: The description details a catheter made from materials designed for insertion into the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnostic purposes. IVDs typically involve reagents, test strips, analyzers, etc., which are not described here.

Therefore, the PowerMidline™ Catheters are a medical device used for vascular access, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

The indications for use statement is different between the subject device and predicate device. Specifically, the subject device indications for use includes a statement indicating that the device may be used with any patient population when consideration is given to adequacy of vascular anatomy and appropriateness of the procedure, whereas the predicate device indications for use does not include this statement. This difference in the indications for use does not alter the intended use of the device (i.e., access to the vascular system for administration of fluids intravenously, blood sampling, and power injection of contrast media). The purpose of this information is to specify that prior to use of the subject device, the user should consider the patient's vascular anatomy and appropriateness of using the subject device for the intended procedure. The statement does not prescribe a different general purpose or function of the device, nor does it prescribe a different patient population, therapeutic or diagnostic use of the subject device compared to the predicate device. Therefore, this difference in indications for use between the subject and predicate devices does not raise different questions of equivalence.

Performance Tests

The performance tests completed on the subject device were limited to those tests required to support a determination of substantial equivalence to the predicate/reference devices. Additionally, when technological characteristics between the subject and predicate/reference devices were found to be identical, results of performance testing conducted on the predicate/reference devices were applied to the subject device. The following table identifies the performance tests completed on the subject device, including the standards associated to each test.
