More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical device that delivers a hemostatic powder. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven decision-making components.

Yes
The device is used for hemostasis (stopping bleeding) in nonvariceal gastrointestinal bleeding, which is a therapeutic action.

No

The device is used for hemostasis (stopping bleeding), which is a treatment function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states it is composed of physical components: Absorbable Modified Polymer (AMP®) particles, a PE bellow, and an EndoClot® Applicator. This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "hemostasis of nonvariceal gastrointestinal bleeding". This describes a therapeutic intervention performed in vivo (within the body) to stop bleeding.
  • Device Description: The device is a system for delivering particles to a bleeding site. This is consistent with a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples (like blood, tissue, etc.) in vitro (outside the body) to provide diagnostic information about a patient's condition.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is to directly treat a condition (bleeding) within the body.

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

Performance tests, biocompatibility tests, chemical characterization, sterility test and in vivo animal studies were conducted to demonstrate that Endoclot® PHS and the predicate devices are substantially equivalent.

According to the performance tests, the properties (Pressure of Gas Source, Spray Pattern, Delay Time and Powder Feeding Rate, Water Absorbency and pH) of EndoClot® PHS are similar to or better than the predicate device Hemospray®. The results demonstrated that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device for these performance measures.

The biocompatibility tests (Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Intracutaneous Reactivity, Acute Systemic Toxicity, Pyrogen, Systemic Toxicity, Genotoxicity, Hemocompatibility and Endotoxins), chemical characterization and sterility test in accordance to Food and Drug Administration related guidance and recognized international standards (ISO10993-5:2009, ISO10993-10:2010, ISO10993-11:2017, ISO10993-18:2020, OECD 471:1997, OECD 473:2016, OECD 474:2016, ASTM F756-17, USP42_NF37 and ISO11737-2:2009/(R)2014), indicated that Endoclot® PHS is substantially equivalent to the predicate.

In vivo animal studies have also been conducted to support the substantial equivalence claims of our product as compared to the predicate device Hemospray®. The objective of the study was to validate the efficacy and safety of EndoClot® PHS (compared to the predicate device) in a swine model for gastrointestinal bleeding control. The results demonstrated that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate.

Dear Mr. Hu:

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.

5. Description of the Device

EndoClot® Polysaccharide Hemostatic System (EndoClot® PHS) is a sterilized single use medical device that is composed of Absorbable Modified Polymer (AMP®) particles in a PE bellow and an EndoClot® Applicator (K162197). The device contains no human or animal components. AMP® particles are biocompatible, non-pyrogenic and derived from plant starch.

6. Intended Use/Indication for Use

EndoClot® PHS is used for hemostasis of nonvariceal gastrointestinal bleeding, excluding Forrest la classification of bleeding.

7. Technological Characteristics

EndoClot® PHS is composed of Absorbable Modified Polymer (AMP®) particles in a PE bellow and an EndoClot® Applicator (K162197). AMP® particles are delivered through a catheter inserted through the working channel of an endoscope which provides access to the bleeding site.

When compared with Hemospray® (DEN170015), EndoClot® PHS has the same intended use but with reduced indications for use. They are with the same classification and same application technique that the particles are delivered by gas source and through a catheter inserted through the working channel of an endoscope which provides access to the bleeding site. Yet, there are also multiple dimensions are different, which are hemostatic particles and packaging. However, these different parts have been verified to be substantial equivalent.

When compared with EndoClot® Applicator (K162197), the applicator of EndoClot® PHS is identical with EndoClot® Applicator (K162197).

8. Performance Data

Performance tests, biocompatibility tests, chemical characterization, sterility test and in vivo animal studies were conducted to demonstrate that Endoclot® PHS and the predicate devices are substantially equivalent.

According to the performance tests, the properties (Pressure of Gas Source, Spray Pattern, Delay Time and Powder Feeding Rate, Water Absorbency and pH) of EndoClot® PHS are similar to or better than the predicate device Hemospray®. The results demonstrated that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device for these performance measures.

The biocompatibility tests (Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Intracutaneous Reactivity, Acute Systemic Toxicity, Pyrogen, Systemic Toxicity, Genotoxicity, Hemocompatibility and Endotoxins), chemical characterization and sterility test in accordance to Food and Drug Administration related guidance and recognized international standards (ISO10993-5:2009, ISO10993-10:2010, ISO10993-11:2017, ISO10993-18:2020, OECD 471:1997, OECD 473:2016,

OECD 474:2016, ASTM F756-17, USP42_NF37 and ISO11737-2:2009/(R)2014), indicated that Endoclot® PHS is substantially equivalent to the predicate.

In vivo animal studies have also been conducted to support the substantial equivalence claims of our product as compared to the predicate device Hemospray®. The objective of the study was to validate the efficacy and safety of EndoClot® PHS (compared to the predicate device) in a swine model for gastrointestinal bleeding control. The results demonstrated that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate.

9. Conclusion [21 CFR 807.92(b) (3)]

EndoClot® PHS has a reduced scope of intended use, with the same classification and application technique compared with Hemospray® (DEN170015). The applicator of EndoClot® PHS is identical with EndoClot® Applicator (K162197).

A series of tests were conducted to verify the safety and efficacy of Endoclot® PHS:

  1. The performance tests demonstrated that the proposed device meets the design specifications and is suitable for the intended use.

  2. The biocompatibility tests, chemical characterization and sterility test indicated that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate.

  3. The in vivo animal studies demonstrated that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate.

In accordance with the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, 21 CFR Part 807 and based on the information provided in this premarket notification, EndoClot Plus Co., Ltd. concludes that EndoClot® PHS is substantially equivalent to predicate devices.
