The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and material properties, sterilization, and biocompatibility. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data-driven performance metrics.
No
The device is a syringe used for fluid aspiration and injection, which are procedures for administering or withdrawing substances, not for treating a disease or condition itself.
No
This device is a syringe for fluid injection and aspiration, primarily used for therapeutic purposes, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components (barrel, stopper, plunger rod, needle) and the performance studies focus on physical and material properties, not software validation.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is used for "aspiration of fluids from vials and ampoules and a variety of fluid injections below the surface of the skin". This describes a procedure performed on a patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from a patient to diagnose a condition.
- Device Description: The description details a syringe, which is a tool for administering or withdrawing substances from the body. It does not describe a reagent, instrument, or system used for testing biological samples.
- Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "Below the surface of the skin," indicating direct interaction with the patient's body. IVDs typically interact with samples like blood, urine, or tissue outside the body.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies listed (ISO standards for syringes, biocompatibility, sterilization, packaging, shelf life) are relevant to a medical device used for injection/aspiration, not an IVD.
In vitro diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens, such as blood, tissue, or urine, that have been taken from the human body to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. This device does not fit that description.

Device Description
The Sterile Auto-Disable syringes with/without needle for single use is a syringe with or without needle, sterile, single use hypodermic syringe with a 6% (Luer) male connector/lock fitting in various sizes. The syringe assembly consists of a lubricated polypropylene barrel with a graduated scale, a lubricated synthetic rubber stopper and a polypropylene plunger rod. The plunger rod is pulled back to aspirate fluids or depressed to inject or expel fluids. The main principle of the syringe is that after the injection is completed, the device automatically locks the plunger to prevent reuse.

Comment #1
The subject device and the predicate device have the same intended use, to aspirate and inject fluids into a patient. The predicate device has a needle safety feature which after use allows the needle to be encapsulated into the plunger rod of the syringe to prevent needle sticks, thus preventing re-use of the syringe. The subject device does not have a needle safety feature but has a disc on the plunger which could be stuck by the buckle of the syringe to prevent re-use of the syringe. The subject device and the predicate device both have the same intended use, this difference does not affect the clinical safety of the subject device.
Comment #2
The subject device and the predicate device are both syringes that render the syringe unusable after injection, the predicate device also has a needle safety feature.
Comment #3
The subject device is available in gauges 18g-30g and the predicate device is available in Performance testing was done per ISO 9626 and ISO 7864 done to 21g-28g. demonstrate that the differences in needle gauges do not affect the clinical safety or effectiveness of the devices.
Comment #4
7
The bevel of subject device is different from the predicate device. However, this difference does not affect intended use. The difference was addressed through ISO 9626 and ISO 7864. Therefore, the differences on bevel do not raise different question of safety and effectiveness.
Comment #5
The material of subject device is different from the predicate device. The piston of subject device is silicone rubber while the predicate device is isoprene rubber. The configurations of subject device do not include Needle Sheath compared with predicate device, which was not affect intended use and did not introduce new materials. However, the materials of subject device were demonstrated to be equivalently biocompatible by the biocompatibility tests done. Therefore, the differences on materials do not raise new questions about safety and effectiveness.
