Intended Use
Provide tracheal access for airway management and subglottic secretion management in adult patients. It is also intended for use with percutaneous dilatational tracheotomy (PDT) procedures.
Device Description
The subject device is a single patient use tracheostomy tube that features an outer cannula with a radiopaque line alonq its length and a standard 15mm connector for direct connection to standard ventilation and anesthesia equipment. It has an integrated evac suction line in the outer cannula for suctioning of subqlottic secretions that may pool above the cuff. It is available in three configurations: single cannula (no inner cannula), disposable inner cannula (DIC) and single patient use reusable inner cannula (RIC).
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical characteristics and standard testing of a tracheostomy tube, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No.
The device is a tracheostomy tube for airway management, not for treating a disease or condition. While it aids in patient care, it does not provide therapy itself.

No

Explanation:
The device description and intended use clearly state that the device is a tracheostomy tube designed for airway management and subglottic secretion management. It is a tool for treatment and management, not for diagnosing a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "single patient use tracheostomy tube" with physical components like an outer cannula, integrated evac suction line, and available in different configurations (single cannula, DIC, RIC). The performance studies also include physical testing like biocompatibility, sterilization, and bench testing.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to provide tracheal access for airway management and subglottic secretion management. This is a therapeutic and procedural use, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device is a tracheostomy tube, which is a medical device used to establish an airway. It does not perform any in vitro testing on biological samples.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or to provide diagnostic information about a patient's condition.
  • Anatomical Site: The device interacts directly with the trachea, an anatomical site within the body, rather than being used to test samples outside the body.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This tracheostomy tube does not fit that description.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

§ 868.5800 Tracheostomy tube and tube cuff.

(a)
Identification. A tracheostomy tube and tube cuff is a device intended to be placed into a surgical opening of the trachea to facilitate ventilation to the lungs. The cuff may be a separate or integral part of the tracheostomy tube and is, when inflated, intended to establish a seal between the tracheal wall and the tracheostomy tube. The cuff is used to prevent the patient's aspiration of substances, such as blood or vomit, or to provide a means for positive-pressure ventilation of the patient. This device is made of either stainless steel or plastic.(b)
Classification. Class II.

VII Performance Data

The following performance testing was performed in support of the substantial equivalence determination:

Biocompatibility testing

The biocompatibility evaluation was conducted in accordance with FDA Guidance "Use of International Standard ISO-10993, 'Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 1: Evaluation and Testing'" May 1, 1995, and International Standard ISO 10993-1 "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices – Part 1: Evaluation and Testing Within a Risk Management Process," recognized by FDA.

Testing included cytotoxicity, sensitization, acute systemic toxicity, genotoxicity, subchronic toxicity implantation, chemical characterization, and risk assessment. The subject device met all biocompatibility requirements for its intended use.

Sterilization and Packaging Validation

The subject device is provided sterile via ethylene oxide sterilization and was validated to ensure sterility in accordance with ISO 11135-1 and ISO 10993-7. A packaging validation was conducted accordance with ISO 11607-1. The reusable inner cannula cleaning validation was performed in accordance with the AAMI TIR30:2011.

Bench Testing

Bench testing on the subject device was conducted in accordance with ISO 5366, ISO 5361, ISO 5356-1 and ISO 18190. In addition, internal bench testing was conducted to assess cuff performance, suction performance and evac lumen patency.

MRI Testing

MRI safety and compatibility testing and MR compatibility labeling for the subject devices comply with FDA quidance "Establishing Safety and Compatibility of Passive Implants in the MR Environment", and ASTM F2503-13.

Human Factors Testing

Human Factors testing was conducted in a simulated environment with 15 participants in accordance with FDA Guidance 1757 Applying Human Factors and Usability Engineering to Medical Devices.

VIII Substantial Equivalence

Intended Use

The subject device and predicate devices share similar intended uses. The subject device provides tracheal access for airway management and subglottic secretion management in adult patients while the predicate K173384 is for airway maintenance of tracheostomised patients and the aspiration of contaminated mucous and subglottic secretions that collect and build up between the tracheostomy tube cuff and the glottis.

9

Image /page/9/Picture/2 description: The image contains the word "COVIDIEN" in bold, dark blue letters. To the left of the word is a square logo that is also dark blue. The logo is divided into smaller squares of varying shades of blue.

Additionally, the subject device is also intended for use with percutaneous dilatational tracheotomy (PDT) procedures. PDT is an alternative to the surgical placement of a tracheostomy tube and has been shown to be cost-effective and safe. (Najmuddin et al, 2014) 3. The subject device is designed with a tapered tube tip identical to that of the predicate K150844 and the reference device K142296. PDT procedure compatibility does not impact the safety or effectiveness of the subject device.

Technological Characteristics

All patient contacting components of the subject and predicate devices are made with similar materials and plasticizer (PVC with DEHT). The inner cannulas of the subject device are made of polyethylene, and the material of the reusable inner cannula is identical to the RIC of predicate K150844, whereas the inner cannula of predicate K173384 is made of PVC with DEHT.

Both the subject and predicate devices comply with ISO 10993 for material biocompatibility and bench testing on the subject device was conducted per ISO 5366, ISO 5356-1, ISO 5361 and ISO 18190.
