No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and pressure-based functionalities, with no mention of AI or ML terms or concepts.

No.
The device is used to create, maintain, and monitor pressure in a balloon catheter during cardiovascular procedures, which is a functional role for a medical device rather than a direct therapeutic intervention.

No
The device is described as an "inflation device" used to "create, maintain and monitor pressure in the balloon catheter" during cardiovascular procedures. It is a tool for therapy delivery, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly lists physical components like a barrel, plunger, locking button, rotating handle, manometer, and high pressure tube, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "to create, maintain and monitor pressure in the balloon catheter during cardiovascular procedures." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) to manipulate a medical device (a balloon catheter) during a procedure.
  • Device Description: The description details mechanical components like a barrel, plunger, manometer, and high-pressure tube. These are typical of devices used for delivering pressure or fluids in vivo.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is purely mechanical and procedural, not diagnostic.

Summary of Performance Studies

The technological differences between the subject and predicate devices have been evaluated through bench tests to provide evidence that the modified Fluent inflation device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. The modified Fluent inflation device is substantially equivalent to the specified predicate device based on comparisons of the device functionality, technological characteristics, and indications for use. The modified device design has been verified through the following tests:

  • Pressure (hand pressurization, repeat hand pressurization, static pressure)
  • Force (button lock and unlock)
  • Plunger Torque
  • Ease of Use
    The results of the verification tests met the specified acceptance criteria and did not raise new safety or performance issues.

Dear Ms. Vite:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices. good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical devicerelated adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

General Information

Trade NameFluent inflation device
Common / Usual NameInflation device
Classification Name21 CFR 870.1650, MAV – Syringe, balloon inflation
Predicate DeviceK152387 - Fluent inflation device (Vascular Solutions, Inc.)

Device Description

The Fluent inflation device consists of a barrel with a plunger, locking button, rotating handle, manometer, and high pressure tube with a rotating luer lock. The manometer is graduated between vacuum and 30 atm.

Intended Use

The Fluent inflation device is intended for use during cardiovascular procedures to create, maintain and monitor pressure in the balloon catheter.

Technological Characteristics Comparison

The Fluent inflation device is similar in design and identical in intended use to the predicate device as they are both single-use, sterile inflation devices used to inflate, deflate, and measure the pressure in angioplasty balloon catheters. Both devices are manually operated by manipulation of a rotating handle, and both include a locking mechanism to maintain pressure or achieve rapid deflation.

Substantial Equivalence and Summary of Studies

The technological differences between the subject and predicate devices have been evaluated through bench tests to provide evidence that the modified Fluent inflation device is substantially

equivalent to the predicate device. The modified Fluent inflation device is substantially equivalent to the specified predicate device based on comparisons of the device functionality, technological characteristics, and indications for use. The modified device design has been verified through the following tests:

  • . Pressure (hand pressurization, repeat hand pressurization, static pressure)
  • Force (button lock and unlock)
  • Plunger Torque
  • . Ease of Use

The results of the verification tests met the specified acceptance criteria and did not raise new safety or performance issues. Therefore, the Fluent inflation device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
