More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical characteristics and mechanical performance of a simple medical device (insulin pen needle) and do not mention any computational or data-driven capabilities.

No
A therapeutic device is one that treats a disease or condition. This device, an insulin pen needle, is used for the administration of insulin, which is a therapeutic agent, but the needle itself does not have a therapeutic effect; it is a delivery mechanism.

No
The device is an insulin pen needle, which is used for the subcutaneous injection of insulin. It is an accessory to an insulin pen injector and does not perform any diagnostic function.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components (needle container, needle shield, needle tube, needle hub, UV glue, silicone oil) and manufacturing processes, indicating it is a physical medical 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 for the subcutaneous injection of insulin using a pen injector device. This is a direct administration of a substance into the body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device is a needle designed to facilitate the delivery of insulin. It does not perform any diagnostic testing or analysis of biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any components or functions related to analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological sample for diagnostic purposes.

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 purely for drug delivery.

Discussion:

The Promisemed Insulin Pen Needle has the same intended use and technological characteristics as the predicate device. The basic technological and operating principles are the same for both devices. Both the subject and predicate devices are disposable, sterile, single patient use devices.

The difference in gauge size and material of needle shield does not affect the substantially equivalence on the safety and effectiveness. The Needle length of 3.5mm with tightened tolerance limits (±0.4mm), is within the same needle length range as the predicate 4mm (±1.20 mm), both meet the requirement of ISO 11608-2 to a 95%/95% C/R and substantially equivalent. The subject device has raised no different questions of safety and effectiveness.
