No
The device description and performance studies focus on the chemical composition and storage properties of a solution, with no mention of AI or ML.
Yes.
The device is intended for the cold storage and flushing of organs in preparation for transplantation, which is a therapeutic intervention.
No
The device is described as a solution for flushing and cold storage of organs for transplantation, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly indicates it is a sterile solution for organ preservation, packaged in bags, and requires chilling. This is a physical product, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is NOT an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the flushing and cold storage of organs (kidney, liver, pancreas) for transplantation. This is a procedure performed on the organ itself outside of the body, not on a sample taken from a patient to diagnose a condition or provide information about a patient's health.
- Device Description: The description details a solution used for preserving organs, not for analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health
- Using reagents to detect or measure substances in a sample
- Performing tests to identify diseases or conditions
The device is clearly intended for the preservation and preparation of organs for transplantation, which falls under the category of medical devices used in surgical and transplantation procedures, not in vitro diagnostics.

Device Description
Servator B SALF Solution is a clear to light yellow, single use only, sterile (by steam sterilization) and non-pyrogenic for hypothermic flushing and preservation of organs.
The formulation includes soluble colloids, buffers, sodium and potassium salts, redox stabilizers, and phosphoric compounds to aid tissue viability by enabling regeneration of adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
The primary containers used for the device are PVC free bags 1000ml and 2000ml; therefore, they are free of phthalates. The bags must be chilled to between 2° and 6° C (36° to 43° F) prior to use. The solution may be used without any point of use filtration.
The Servator B SALF Solution is intended for perfusion and flushing donor kidneys, liver and pancreas immediately before or immediately after removal from a dead donor or immediately after removal from a living donor. The solution remains in the organ vessels during hypothermic storage and transportation. Servator B SALF Solution is meant for the cold storage of the organ and is not indicated for hypothermic preservation with continuous mechanical perfusion.

§ 876.5880 Isolated kidney perfusion and transport system and accessories.
(a)
Identification. An isolated kidney perfusion and transport system and accessories is a device that is used to support a donated or a cadaver kidney and to maintain the organ in a near-normal physiologic state until it is transplanted into a recipient patient. This generic type of device may include tubing, catheters, connectors, an ice storage or freezing container with or without bag or preservatives, pulsatile or nonpulsatile hypothermic isolated organ perfusion apparatus with or without oxygenator, and disposable perfusion set.(b)

Dear Joyce St. Germain:
This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of June 29, 2018.
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.

The above comparison shows the subject and predicate devices are substantially equivalent in technology characteristics. The differences are highlighted and those differences do not make the subject device any less safe and effective as the predicate device. The differences are due to different manufacturers with different model numbers and the subject device has additional configuration of packaging that the predicate doesn't have.
Non-Clinical Performance Data
The following performance data is provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination. All tests performed are included in this submission.
Biocompatibility... is required for this device. The Cytotoxicity, Irritation, System Toxicity and Haemocompatibility tests were all performed of the ISO 10993 series and all are listed above in the Table of Comparison. The subject device passed all biocompatibility test standards.
Sterilization and Shelf Life . . . is required for the subject device. The Validation of Sterility was performed and the results passed according to ISO 17655-1 and ASTM F1980-16. Shelf life for the subject and predicate device is the same at 24 months.
Electrical Safety and EMC . . . testing was not applicable for this device.
Software ... was not applicable for this device.
Performance Testing...was completed as a direct comparison between the subject and predicate device. The chemical comparisons and leachables performance testing demonstrated the substantial equivalence of this device to the predicate.
Conclusion
The subject and predicate devices have the same indications for use and the same intended use. Both devices are substantially equivalent in design, materials, packaging and other technological characteristics and performance (since they have, in fact, the same chemical composition). The Servator B SALF Solution does not raise any questions regarding safety and effectiveness and is equivalent to the predicate device. The non-clinical data supports and demonstrates the safety of the device.
9
The conclusion is that Servator B SALF Solution warrants a finding of substantial equivalence to the legally marketed CoStorSol® by Preservations Solutions, Inc., and therefore, should have clearance for premarket activities in the United States.
