Intended Use
The Perineologic Access Needle is intended for use as a guiding needle in obtaining core biopsy samples from soft tissue and tumors of such organs as liver, kidney, spleen, lymph nodes, prostate, lung and various soft tissue lesions.
Device Description
The Perineologic Access Needle is a sterile, single use, disposable, hollowed/tubular, stainless steel needle that is sharpened at one end and blunt on the opposing end while containing a polymeric hub with a female luer-lock style fitting to accept a male luer lock syringe. The polymeric hub contains a female luer fitting on the proximal end, a protruding, elongated rectangle for gripping, and a distal circumferential tubular lip that protrudes approximately 1 cm along the axis of the stainless steel needle. The protruding rectangle in the middle of the polymeric hub has 2 opposing and equal sides in the shape of a tapered rectangle containing ribs for gripping. The remaining 2 sides of the tapered rectangle are hollowed. The Perineologic Access Needle is provided in various lengths and diameters as required for particular biopsy procedures. The Perineologic Access Needle is provided in lengths ranging from 7cm to 20cm and inner diameters ranging from 14 gauge to 20 gauge.

No
The device description and intended use describe a purely mechanical biopsy needle. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any components that would suggest AI/ML capabilities. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

No.
The device is used for obtaining biopsy samples, which is a diagnostic procedure, not a therapeutic intervention.

No

Explanation: The device is a guiding needle used to obtain core biopsy samples. Biopsy samples are collected to be analyzed, but the needle itself does not perform the diagnostic analysis.

No

The device description clearly details a physical, sterile, single-use needle made of stainless steel and polymeric materials. There is no mention of software as a component or the primary function of the device.

Based on the provided information, the Perineologic Access Needle is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to obtain core biopsy samples from soft tissue and tumors of various organs. This is a procedure performed on the patient's body to collect a sample.
  • Device Description: The device is a needle designed for physical access and sample collection from within the body.
  • Lack of In Vitro Activity: There is no mention of the device being used to examine or test samples outside of the body (in vitro). IVD devices are typically used to analyze biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue) in a laboratory setting to diagnose or monitor conditions.

The Perineologic Access Needle is a medical device used for a biopsy procedure, which is an in vivo (within the living body) process of sample collection. The subsequent analysis of the collected biopsy sample would likely involve IVD devices and procedures, but the needle itself is not an IVD.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION

Design Characteristics

The Perineologic Access Needle is a sterile, single use, disposable, hollowed/tubular, stainless steel needle that is sharpened at one end and blunt on the opposing end while containing a polymeric hub with a female luer-lock style fitting to accept a male luer lock syringe. The polymeric hub contains a female luer fitting on the proximal end, a protruding, elongated rectangle for gripping, and a distal circumferential tubular lip that protrudes approximately 1 cm along the axis of the stainless steel needle. The protruding rectangle in the middle of the polymeric hub has 2 opposing and equal sides in the shape of a tapered rectangle containing ribs for gripping. The remaining 2 sides of the tapered rectangle are hollowed.

The Perineologic Access Needle is provided in various lengths and diameters as required for particular biopsy procedures. The Perineologic Access Needle is provided in lengths ranging from 7cm to 20cm and inner diameters ranging from 14 gauge to 20 gauge.

PERFORMANCE TESTING

The Perineologic Access Needle was tested against the following standards: ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11135:2014 - Sterilization of Health Care Products - Ethylene Oxide - Requirements for the Development, Validation and Routine Control of a Sterilization Process for Medical Devices, ISO 10993-1 - Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices, and ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11607-1 Packaging for Terminally Sterilized Medical Devices Part 1: Requirements for Materials, Sterile Barrier Systems and Packaging, ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11607-2 Packaging for Terminally Sterilized Medical Devices Part 2: Validation Requirements for Forming, Sealing and Assembly Process.

Design and Materials

The material and design principles of the Perineologic Access Needle and the predicate devices [Bard TrueGuide ™ Coaxial Biopsy Needle Guide (K936194) and the PFM Medical Biopsy Needle System (K140137)] are substantially equivalent, consisting of sterile, single-use fabricated from a medical grade polymeric material and stainless steel. All devices also share the common design principles of being composed of materials that are intended for transient use with soft tissues.

The Perineologic Access Needle and the predicate devices [Bard TrueGuide™ Coaxial Biopsy Needle Guide (K936194) and the PFM Medical Biopsy Needle System (K140137)] are substantially equivalent as the needles are all fabricated from substantially equivalent, medical-grade, stainless steel and the opposite end of the needle is fabricated from substantially equivalent, medical-grade, polymeric material to a polymeric syringe.

The Perineologic Access Needle and the predicate devices [Bard TrueGuide™ Coaxial Biopsy Needle Guide (K936194) and the PFM Medical Biopsy Needle System (K140137)] are substantially equivalent as they all share the same design of a polymeric female luer lock hub that is designed to attach to a luer style syringe.

The Perineologic Access Needle and the predicate devices [Bard TrueGuide]10 Coaxial Biopsy Needle Guide (K936194) and the PFM Medical Biopsy Needle System (K140137)] are substantially equivalent as they all share the same design of a hollowed, stainless steel tube sharpened at one end and blunt at the other end with a polymeric hub attached to the blunt end.

The Perineologic Access Needle and the predicate devices [Bard TrueGuide™ Coaxial Biopsy Needle Guide (K936194) and the PFM Medical Biopsy Needle System (K140137)] are substantially equivalent as they all share the same design principals of puncturing tissue to guide the position of a biopsy needle and to create a passage for another needle of smaller diameter to pass through and obtain a biopsy sample.
