Intended Use

Enteral Pump Syringe delivers nutritional formula to the gastrointestinal system of a patient who is physically unable to eat and swallow.

Enteral Pump Syringe is intended to be used in clinical or home care settings by users ranging from laypersons (under the supervision of a clinician) to health care professionals, to administer nutritional formula. In particular, these syringes can be connected with enteral infusion pump.

Enteral Pump Syringe is intended for neonatal, pediatric and adult use.

Enteral Pump Syringe is single use device.

Device Description

The proposed device is modified device of K190502(ENFit Oral/Enteral Syringe,cleared July 2, 2019) according to 21CFR 820.30. The change is a operation mode change from manual use to use with infusion pump.

The proposed device is a disposable enteral feeding syringe provided in a variety of sizes from 1ml to 60ml. The ENFit enteral feeding syringe consists of moveable plunger, piston, calibrated hollow barrel and tip cap(not necessary). At the distal end of the barrel is a female connector, designed according to ISO 80369-3 (often referred to as an ENFit connection). The tip is designed to mate only with enteral administration devices and is incompatible with Luer connectors. The device is used to deliver fluids into the body enterally by connected to an enteral access device with male ENFit connector. The syringes (size 6ml to 60ml) incorporate a female Standard ENFit connector; the syringes (size 1ml and 6ml) incorporate a female low dosing ENFit connector.

There are 2 types of ENFit connector ENFit syringe and central connector ENFit syringe. The sizes of the Side connector ENFit syringe range from 12ml to 60ml; and The sizes of the central connector ENFit syringe range from 1ml to 60ml. The syringes are provided with transparent or amber color barrel.

The material used of deviec are Polypropylene. Polyisoprene rubber, Polydimethysiloxane(inside surface coating of barrel ). Amber additive(for used amber color barrel only), which are also patient-contacting materials for the proposed devices. The time of contact duration is less than 24 hours. The contact level is mucosal membrane, indirect.

The proposed device is sterile or non-sterile, single use. The sterilized by Ethylene Oxide Gas to achieve a SAL of 10-6 and supplied sterility maintenance package which could maintain the sterility of the device during the shelf life of five years.

The proposed device intended to be used in clinical or home care settings by users ranging from laypersons (under the supervision of a clinician) to health care professionals. The device has no energy in itself. But the syringe works with infusion pump and extension sets.The syringe is aspirated nutritional formula liquid, connected the extension set. Then user installed it on the infusion pump, and pump fluids into a body enterally in a controlled manner for administer enteral nutrition. The accuracy of graduations for enteral syringes is +/- 4% of expelled volume.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for an "Enteral Pump Syringe." It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than proving a medical device meets specific performance acceptance criteria through the kind of study described in the prompt. This device is a syringe, not an AI or imaging device, so the requested information regarding AI performance metrics, expert adjudication, MRMC studies, and ground truth establishment is not applicable.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information for an AI/imaging device. However, I can extract the information relevant to the performance and testing of this specific medical device, the Enteral Pump Syringe, as presented in the document:

Device: Enteral Pump Syringe

Context: This document is an FDA 510(k) submission, aiming to demonstrate "substantial equivalence" of the proposed device to an already legally marketed predicate device. It is not a clinical study report for an AI or imaging device.
