The device description and intended use clearly describe physical medical devices (syringes, LOR devices, needles, filters, caps, adapters, catheter feeder) and their physical characteristics and functions. There is no mention of software as a component or the primary function of the device.
Based on the provided text, none of the described devices are IVDs (In Vitro Diagnostics).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use of all the devices is for the administration of neuraxial medication, locating the epidural space, guiding needle placement, sealing syringe tips, drawing up medication, filtering medication, providing compliant connections, mixing/transferring medication, sealing needle hubs, and assisting catheter insertion. These are all procedures performed in vivo (within the body) or directly related to preparing substances for in vivo use.
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices intended to be used in vitro (outside the body) for the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.
The devices described are primarily used for delivering substances into the body or facilitating procedures related to that delivery. They do not involve the analysis of biological samples in vitro.

5.6.2 Testing in Support of Substantial Equivalence Determination
All necessary bench testing was conducted on the DASH 6° Family of devices to support a determination of substantial equivalence to the (primary) predicate and the associated accessories. Testing included biocompatibility, sterilization validation, shipping and packaging, accelerated aging, and design verification testing. Design verification testing included the following:
- Visual inspection
- Dimensional verification
- Physical testing
Performance testing was conducted to confirm compliance to the design specifications of ISO 80369-6; all functions have been verified to operate as designed. The DASH 6 Syringe device family, its male NRFit connector and its accessories (with female NRFit connectors) have met all acceptance criteria, as described in Section 18.

Dimensional analysis was conducted for critical dimensions of the DASH 6® NRFit Syringe device family and its accessories (with NRFit connectors), in accordance with the criteria in ISO 80369-6.
Device Verification Testing for the piston syringe was conducted in accordance with ISO 7886-1 (Capacity Tolerance, Leakage Testing Side Force, Leakage Testing Axial Force). Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, and Extractables and Leachables testing was also done per ISO 10993-5, 10993-10, and 10993-18 and 10993-19, respectively.
The DASH 6 NRFit plastic LOR device itself did not undergo testing according to due to its intended use. The LOR device is a low friction device and it is used to locate the epidural space. The requirement for low friction and integrity of the seal from the gasket to the barrel is therefore compromised to produce the required clinical function to enable the physician to locate the epidural space. As such, to test the performance for "leakage and resistance" for the LOR device will not be testable under the regime of ISO 7886-1 as it is not applicable.
Design verification testing for the needles were conducted in accordance with ISO 7864-1 but only in certain respects (i.e. Needle to Needle Hub bonding, dimensions tolerances and blockages within the needle). The reason for this is that the DASH 6 NRFit needles are not intend for administering medication. Therefore, certain characteristic aspect of specified in ISO 7864-1, were taken into account for these needles.
Design verification testing were completed on the filter device to ensure that the device is also functioning according to it requirement. This includes the bubble point test, flow-rate and filtration efficiency.
The risk associated with misconnection of the NRFit connector has been assessed and the process captured in the following documents:
- FMEA (Design, User, Process)
- Risk Management Report
The collective results of the testing demonstrate that the DASH 6® NRFit Syringe device family and accessories meet specifications and perform as intended. In addition, the collective bench testing demonstrates that the DASH 6® NRFit Syringe device family and accessories do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness as compared to the predicate or the associated accessories.
5.7 CONCLUSION
The DASH 6 ° NRFit Syringe family and accessories have the same intended use and similar technological characteristics as the predicate devices. The DASH 6 NRFit Syringe family and accessories have been tested to ensure that they perform as intended and do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. As such, the DASH 6 NRFit Syringe device family and accessories are substantially equivalent to the predicate and the associated accessories.
