Device Description
The meso-relle® needles are single lumen needle intended to inject fluids intradermally. The device consists of a metal tube that is sharpened at one end and at the other end joined to a female connector (hub) designed to mate with a male connector (nozzle) of a piston syringe. Needles have different length, which make them suitable to inject fluids intradermally. The meso-relle are not intended for injection in the bloodstream. The devices do not contact the central nervous system. The meso-relle® needles are suitable for administration of fluids intradermally. Each needle is provided with a protective cap (cover is rigid and not colored. The dimensions are suitable to accommodate the corresponding needle and vary according to the dimensions of the needle. The meso-relle® needles are disposable single use devices, sold sterilized by ethylene oxide.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical characteristics and sterilization of a simple needle, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing.

No
The device is a needle intended to inject fluids intradermally, which is an administration tool, not a device that provides therapy itself.

No.
The device description states its purpose is to "inject fluids intradermally," and its "Intended Use / Indications for Use" is "to inject fluids intradermally." There is no mention of diagnosing conditions or analyzing data to provide diagnostic information.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical medical device (needles) made of metal, with a hub and protective cap. The performance studies focus on biocompatibility, sterility, and functional testing of the physical needle, not software validation.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "inject fluids intradermally." This is a direct medical intervention on a patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a needle designed for injection.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.

IVD devices are used to test samples (like blood, urine, tissue) outside the body to diagnose or monitor conditions. This device is used inside the body for therapeutic or other purposes involving fluid injection.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

All materials used for the meso-relle needles have a long history of safe use for the same or equivalent intended use. Biocompatibility has been tested according to the requirements of ISO 10993-1. In consideration of the International Standard ISO 10993-1, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices, Part 1: Evaluation and Testing, following biocompatibility tests were performed on the final finished device to evaluate: Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Intracutaneous reactivity, Systemic toxicity and Haemolysis.

The sterility of the meso-relle Needles is assured by using a validated sterilization method which complies with the requirements of the Recognized Consensus Standard: AAMI / ANSI / ISO 11135-1:2007, Sterilization of health care products - Ethylene oxide - Part 1: Requirements for the development, validation, and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices. Ethylene oxide (EtO) and Ethylene Chlorohydrin (ECH) residuals were tested according to UNI EN ISO 10993-7: 2008 - Method K.4.3.+ HRGC/MS Detection for EtO and Method K.4.8+ HRGC/MS Detection for ECH and met the acceptance criteria.

Meso-relle Needles were tested according to ISO 7864:2016 "Requirements and test methods Sterile hypodermic needles for single use", ISO 9626:2016 "Stainless steel needle tubing for the manufacture of medical devices. Requirements and test methods" and ISO 594-1.1986 "Conical fittings with a 6 % (Luer) taper for syringes, needles and certain other medical equipment -- Part 1: General requirements" in order to demonstrate that the proposed device is substantial equivalent to the predicate in safety and performance.

The test results and comparison results show that the subject device is substantial equivalent to the predicate in performance.

The shorter length of the subject device do not raise new issues of safety or effectiveness; shorter lengths are even more suitable for intradermal use as they are less invasive. This difference does not affect the substantial equivalence of the subject device.

The test results and comparison results show that the subject device is substantial equivalent to the predicate in performance.

NON-CLINICAL PERFORMANCE DATA

All materials used for the meso-relle needles have a long history of safe use for the same or equivalent intended use. Biocompatibility has been tested according to the requirements of ISO 10993-1. In consideration of the International Standard ISO 10993-1, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices, Part 1: Evaluation and Testing, following biocompatibility tests were performed on the final finished device to evaluate: Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Intracutaneous reactivity, Systemic toxicity and Haemolysis.

The sterility of the meso-relle Needles is assured by using a validated sterilization method which complies with the requirements of the Recognized Consensus Standard: AAMI / ANSI / ISO 11135-1:2007, Sterilization of health care products - Ethylene oxide - Part 1: Requirements for the development, validation, and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices. Ethylene oxide (EtO) and Ethylene Chlorohydrin (ECH) residuals were tested according to UNI EN ISO 10993-7: 2008 - Method K.4.3.+ HRGC/MS Detection for EtO and Method K.4.8+ HRGC/MS Detection for ECH and met the acceptance criteria.

Meso-relle Needles were tested according to ISO 7864:2016 "Requirements and test methods Sterile hypodermic needles for single use", ISO 9626:2016 "Stainless steel needle tubing for the manufacture of medical devices. Requirements and test methods" and ISO 594-1.1986 "Conical fittings with a 6 % (Luer) taper for syringes, needles and certain other medical equipment -- Part 1: General requirements" in order to demonstrate that the proposed device is substantial equivalent to the predicate in safety and performance.

CONCLUSION:

The subject and the predicate devices have the same indications for use and they have same technological characteristics. The test results and comparison results show that the proposed device is substantial equivalent to the predicate in performance.

Based on the intended use, technological characteristics and performance testing, the proposed product meso-relle Needles is considered to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
