Intended Use

SafePort(TM) Manifold (or Stopcock) is a one or more multiple ports product, which is indicated to serve as a flow control and a conduit device for I.V fluids delivery to the patient's vascular system. The product is intended for delivering I.V drugs or fluids, allowing gravity feed, sampling, transfusion, bolus injection and elimination of reflux of fluids during operation.

Device Description

Elcam modified SafePort™ Manifold (also identified as SafePort™ Manifold) is used in Operating Room (OR) and Intensive Care Unit (ICU) to assist the physician and mainly the anesthesiologist in delivering IV drugs and fluids during and after operation.

Elcam's SafePort™ Manifold is designated for single use only (disposable) and its recommended maximal use duration is up to 24 hours.

Liquid compatibility: Elcam's SafePort™ Manifold is compatible with common fluids used in I.V. therapy, anesthesia and monitoring, including blood transfusion. The SafePort™ Manifold is made of a body with 1-5 side ports and 1-5 handles (depends on the number of ports).

Each port has a male or female connector (luer). Male connectors also include a nut (rotator) for locking over the female luer of the connected component. A small amount of lubricant is applied on the handle stem before placing it in the Stopcock/Manifold body.

Operating mechanism is manual and simple operated by twisting the handle position to determine fluid direction.

Between each handle and port housing an Elastomer may be placed to function as a pressure Luer Activated Valve (LAV) as an option to standard open female luer. The LAV is welded to the manifold body's fluid line at the female side port(s) in order to avoid back flow (reflux) and to serve as closed port. A rotator is assembled on the proximal male port (which is connected toward the patient) in order to enable connection locking. The distal female port is connected to the I.V Set to accept the delivered drug or fluid. Open ports (female and male) may be provided with or without covers.

Design wise, the modified SafePort™ Manifold relies on Elcam legally marketed SafePort™ Manifold cleared under K111016 that was modified as follow:

The SafePort™ Handle was modified for better producibility: Elastomeric material was changed, a cone-shape was added to the handle stem at the sealing area, as well as "door" shape fluid entrance added instead of around the entire stem. Cosmetic/visual non-functional changes were also implemented. The SafePort™ Body was changed to fit the handle changes: The stopper, dimensions luer compliance with ISO 80369-7, side port LAV female thread connection improvements and cosmetic/visual changes. Additional green colorant was added to the existing Caps' colorants.

Transfusion use was added to the SafePort™ indications for use statement to align Elcam SafePort™ with all other Stopcock and Manifold products (as in the primary predicate device cleared under K060231) that share the same indications for use, basic fluid path design and material types. Labeling materials were revised to include the additional transfusion claim.

All modifications were evaluated using well-established tests' methods previously utilized by Elcam or conducted per FDA recognized consensus standards and provided as summary tabulated in a risk analysis format.

Substantial Equivalence Discussion and Conclusion:

The above comparison table demonstrates that Elcam's modified SafePort™ Manifold (or Stopcock) is the same as the primary predicate device in all key features and therefore, it was concluded by Elcam that it is substantial equivalent to the predicate device. In terms of the design changes, it should be noted that all changes to the SafePort™ took place to fit production processes and marketing preferences. No changes took place to the subject device's basic specifications and testing methods. Acceptance criteria of all tests but one remained the same. A difference of 1.5 PSI in the upper limit of the handle door burst pressure was concluded as non-sensible during clinical use and therefore does not affect the device safety and effectiveness and does not alter substantial equivalence criteria.

Like the primary predicate device, the subject device has the same indications for use, including the transfusion which was added to the modified SafePort™. Both devices rely on same or highly similar technology and are classified under same classification.

Certain differences between the subject device and the primary predicate device, do not affect the device safety and effectiveness and have been further supported by the above identified reference device. These differences are hereby discussed:

The handle elastomer exist in the modified SafePort™ does not exist in the primary predicate device. While the subject device contains side female port(s) with or without swabable port(s), the primary predicate device contains only swabable side port(s). The reference device was used to leverage test methods for these features.

To the right of the "E" is the text "Elcam" in a dark gray sans-serif font, with the word "MEDICAL" below it in a smaller font. Below the text is the tagline "Where everything connects" in a smaller, lighter font.

The subject SafePort™ raw materials change (different elastomer grade and additional green colorant), and the design changes to the body, handle and LAV's cap, do not alter the basic shape of the device, did not raise new risks and were validated accordingly within the existing well-established specifications, test methods and acceptance criteria as discussed and presented in the 510(k) submission. Therefore, it was concluded that these changes do not affect the safety and effectiveness of the modified SafePort.

In terms of shelf life, so far, Elcam has validated the modified SafePort™ for three years which is less than the predicate device that was validated for 5 years. This difference narrows the claimed shelf life and therefore does not alter the safety and effectiveness of the modified device.

All other features as indicated in the comparison table, remains exactly the same as the predicate device.

In light of the above, it was concluded that the modified SafePort™ Manifold is substantially equivalent to its primary predicate device.

8. Non-Clinical Performance Testing

Performance tests were conducted successfully by Elcam in order to validate the changes presented in this 510(k) Submission using well established methods based either on recognized consensus standards or Elcam's internal existing test methods previously utilized for legally marketed devices. No deviations took place during the tests. The tests were as follows:

  • 8.1. Biocompatibility tests were performed according to ISO 10993-1:2018 recognized consensus standard and additional parts for each test in conjunction with most current FDA's Guidance for Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, "Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process".

10. Substantially Equivalent (SE) Conclusion

After discussing substantial equivalency of the modified SafePort™ with its predicate device in terms of similarities and differences, intended use, and technological characteristics, it was concluded that none of the changes altered the device safety and effectiveness and that the criteria of substantial equivalence is met. The evaluation of the subject device performance tests also demonstrated that it is as safe and as effective as the legally marketed predicate devices and therefore substantial equivalent.
