More Information

Not Found

No
The device is a chemical indicator tape that changes color based on exposure to hydrogen peroxide, a purely chemical reaction. There is no mention of any computational or algorithmic processing, let alone AI/ML.

No
Explanation: This device is an indicator tape used to differentiate between processed and unprocessed items in sterilization systems. It does not provide therapy to a patient.

No

This device is an indicator tape used to confirm that items have been exposed to a sterilization process, not to diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device is a physical tape with chemical indicator stripes, not a software program.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to secure packs and act as an external process indicator for sterilization cycles. It indicates whether an item has been exposed to vaporized hydrogen peroxide, not to diagnose a condition or analyze a biological sample.
  • Device Description: The device is a tape with a chemical indicator that changes color based on exposure to a sterilizing agent. It does not involve the analysis of biological specimens.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or other biological samples, or providing information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.

The device is a chemical indicator used in the sterilization process, which falls under the category of medical devices but not specifically In Vitro Diagnostics.

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

Non-clinical testing was performed in accordance with the FDA Guidance for Industry and Staff: Premarket Notification [510(k)] Submissions for Chemical Indicators, issued December 19, 2003.
Tests completed in the V-PRO® s2 Low Temperature Sterilization System (Lumen, Non-Lumen, Flexible, and Fast cycles):

  • Color Change in Health Care Facility Cycle: Demonstrated the color change of the device when used in the V-PRO® s2 Low Temperature Sterilization System. Result: Pass (Color change from blue toward pink).
  • Minimum Exposure Parameters: Determined the minimum time required for the color change of the device when used in the V-PRO® s2 Low Temperature Sterilization System. Result: Pass (Determination of the minimum time for color to change from blue toward pink).
  • End Point Color Stability: Demonstrated the post-sterilization color stability of the device after use in the V-PRO® s2 Low Temperature Sterilization System. Result: Pass (No significant color change after exposure to fluorescent light for a minimum of twelve (12) months).

§ 880.2800 Sterilization process indicator.

(a)
Biological sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A biological sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor adequacy of sterilization. The device consists of a known number of microorganisms, of known resistance to the mode of sterilization, in or on a carrier and enclosed in a protective package. Subsequent growth or failure of the microorganisms to grow under suitable conditions indicates the adequacy of sterilization.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).(b)
Physical/chemical sterilization process indicator —(1)Identification. A physical/chemical sterilization process indicator is a device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor one or more parameters of the sterilization process. The adequacy of the sterilization conditions as measured by these parameters is indicated by a visible change in the device.(2)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Dear Mary Fretland:

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.

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

1

requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.
