Intended Use
The device is indicated for use as a dispenser, a measuring device and an oral fluid transfer device. It is intended to be used to deliver fluids into the body orally or enterally. It is intended to be used in clinical or home care settings by operators ranging from qualified medical practitioners to laypersons (under the supervision of a qualified medical practitioners) in all age groups.
Device Description
The proposed device is a disposable enteral feeding syringe provided in a variety of sizes from 0.5ml to 60ml. The enteral feeding syringe consists of plunger, piston, barrel and tip cap, and used to deliver fluids into the body orally or connected to an enteral access device with male tapered connector.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical and mechanical properties of a syringe, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No

The device is a dispenser, measuring device, and fluid transfer device, but it does not directly treat or diagnose a disease or condition; it is used for delivery of fluids.

No
The device is described as a dispenser, a measuring device, and an oral fluid transfer device used to deliver fluids into the body. This functionality aligns with therapeutic or delivery purposes, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description clearly states it is a disposable enteral feeding syringe, which is a physical hardware device. The performance studies also focus on physical, mechanical, and biocompatibility testing of the syringe.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "deliver fluids into the body orally or enterally." This describes a device used for administering substances directly to a patient, not for examining specimens in vitro (outside the body) to obtain information about a physiological state, health, or disease.
  • Device Description: The description details a syringe used for dispensing and transferring fluids into the body. This aligns with a device for direct patient care, not laboratory testing.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue), reagents, or diagnostic tests.

IVD devices are typically used to perform tests on samples taken from the body to diagnose, monitor, or screen for diseases or conditions. This device's function is purely for delivering substances to the body.

Different 1- Regulation Number and Product Code

The regulation number and product code of the proposed device and primary predicate device are same, but regulation number and product code of the proposed device and secondary predicate device are difference.

The product code and the regulation number are different because the PNR code was assigned for the Oral/Enteral Syringe by the FDA in recent years. The secondary predicate device that

10

cleared in 2012, so it was classified under the FMF code. This caused the difference between the product code and the regulatory number of the proposed device and secondary predicate device. This difference between the product code and the regulatory number will not affect the safety and effectiveness.

Different 2- Indication for Use

The indication for use of the proposed device and primary predicate device are same, with only slightly different in the verbal descriptions. The indication for use of the proposed device and secondary predicate device are not exactly the same. The proposed devices and secondary predicate device are indicated for use as a dispenser, a measuring device and an oral fluid transfer device. However, the applicable people of the proposed devices and primary predicative device are same, and the applicable people of the secondary predicate device are neonatal and small pediatric patients. This product is only for delivering liquids to the human body, so different applicable people will not affect the intended use of the product. Now, many oral/enteral syringe that have been marketed are suitable for people of all ages groups.

The use environment of the proposed devices and primary predicative device are same, and the indication for use of the secondary predicate device does not clearly state the use environment. Many of the oral/enteral syringe that have been marketed for indication for use claim that the product can be used in clinical or home care settings. In addition, laypersons are required to use under the supervision of medical practitioners in the indication for use.

In summary, this difference does not raise new safety and effectiveness issues for the device.

Different 3- Configuration

The primary predicate device has not tip cap, which is used to prevent fluid loss and contamination of contents until ready for use and seal the device after using. This difference does not affect intended use. The configuration of the proposed device and secondary predicate device are exactly the same, but the name is different. The secondary predicate device used the tip as a component, but the design of the tip of the proposed device and the secondary predicate device is exactly the same. Therefore, different configuration names do not raise new safety and effectiveness issues for the device.

Different 4 - Product Size

The product size for proposed device is different from primary predicate device and secondary predicate device. The proposed device includes 8 sizes, 0.5 ml, 12ml, 20ml, 35ml, 60ml, all of which are covered by secondary predicate device and the product size is similar to the primary predicate device. In addition, this difference is just in infusion capacity and dose not effect indication for use, and the physician can select by per patient's condition. Therefore, this difference does not raise new safety and effectiveness issues for the device.

Different 5- Product Performance

11

The product performance of proposed device and secondary predicate device are same, and the biocompatibility of proposed device and primary predicate device are similar. ISO 80369-1 is a general standard. Therefore, this difference does not raise new safety and effectiveness issues for the device.

Different 6- Material

The material for proposed device is different from primary predicate device and the material for the secondary predicate device is unknown. However, the biocompatibility test has been performed on proposed device according to ISO 10993, the result does not show any adverse effect which can demonstrate the safety of proposed device. Therefore, this difference does not raise new safety and effectiveness issues for the device.

Different 7- Biocompatibility

The biocompatibility of proposed device and primary predicate device are same, and the biocompatibility of proposed device and secondary predicate device are different. But both of them comply with standard ISO 10993, the result does not show any adverse effect which can demonstrate the safety of proposed device. Therefore, this difference does not raise new safety and effectiveness issues for the device.

Different 8- Sterilization

The proposed device is available in sterile and non-sterile two types. The proposed sterile method is same as the primary predicate device and secondary predicate device. Whether the device is sterilized or not does not affect the indication for use of the device and its performance. Therefore, this difference does not raise new safety and effectiveness issues for the device.

9. Conclusion
