This device is an insulin pen needle, which is used for subcutaneous injection of insulin. It facilitates the delivery of medication but does not itself provide a therapeutic effect. Its primary function is to enable the administration of a therapeutic substance (insulin) and to minimize the risk of accidental needlestick.
No.
The device is an insulin pen needle, used for subcutaneous injection of insulin, and designed to minimize accidental needlesticks. It is not used to diagnose a medical condition.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components like needle tube, trigger shield, spring, fixer, needle hub, needle container, UV glue, and silicone oil, indicating it is a hardware device.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to diagnose, monitor, or screen for health issues.
- Device Function: The Verifine Safety Type Insulin Pen Needle is a device used for the subcutaneous injection of insulin. It is a delivery mechanism for a medication, not a test performed on a sample from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "for subcutaneous injection of insulin" and focuses on the safety feature to prevent needlestick injuries. This is a therapeutic delivery function, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details the physical components and how the needle is used for injection and then safely covered. There is no mention of analyzing a biological sample.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the physical characteristics of the needle and its safety features (ISO standards related to needles and sharps injury protection), as well as biocompatibility. These are relevant to a device used for injection, not for in vitro testing.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the Verifine Safety Type Insulin Pen Needle is a medical device used for drug delivery and safety, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
Verifine Safety Type Insulin Pen Needle is manufactured by Promisemed Hangzhou Meditech Co., Ltd, which is designed for use with a pen injector for the subcutaneous injection of insulin.
The Verifine Safety Type Insulin Pen Needle consists of needle tube, trigger shield, spring, fixer, needle hub, needle container, UV glue and silicone oil. UV glue is used to glue needle tube and needle hub and the silicone oil is used to needle tube lubrication.
The user proceeds with inserting the needle into the skin manually. Verifine Safety Type Insulin Pen Needle is designed to reduce occurrence of accidental needle sticks from patient end of the needle by providing a shield that covers and locks the needle after use. As the user proceeds with inserting the needle into the skin the shield will retract. After the injection is completed and needle is removed from the skin, the shield will automatically extend to cover the needle and lock in place. Once the Safety Type Insulin Pen Needle is in the locked mode, it can no longer be used.
Verifine Safety Type Insulin Pen Needle is sterile with a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10-6, non-pyrogenic and single-use devices. It is supplied with several models. Different models are distinguished by needle gauge and length.

Justification for the differences: の
1) Different Sterilization
The proposed sterilization method for the subect device is Ethylene Oxide sterilization as opposed to the predicate device which is sterilized by Gamma Irradiation. This difference in sterilization does not raise any additional concerns of safety or effectiveness because the proposed device met the necessary biocompatibility and sterility testing requirements per ISO 10993.
-
- Different Biocompatibility
In addition to the Biocompatibility testing of the predicate device, the subject device was tested for Repeated Exposure Systemic Toxicity due to the nature
- Different Biocompatibility

of the device and the possibility of inadvertant reuse. This additional testing does not raise any additional concerns of safety or effectiveness.
10 Conclusion
Based on the information provided within this 510(k) submission, proposed Verifine Safety Type Insulin Pen Needle is substantially equivalent to the predicate device (K161950) and is as safe, as effective and performs as well as the legally marketed predicate device.
