No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and physical properties, safety features, and compliance with standards, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
A pen needle is a delivery device for medication, not a therapeutic device itself. Its function is to facilitate the subcutaneous injection of insulin, which is the therapeutic agent.

No

Explanation: The device is an insulin pen needle, intended for the subcutaneous injection of insulin. It is an administering device, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like needles, caps, hubs, and protective covers, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the subcutaneous injection of insulin. This is a direct administration of a substance into the body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a needle and its components for injection, not equipment or reagents used for testing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device's function is purely for drug delivery.

Different Analysis - Configuration

The configuration of the Safety Pen Needle for Single Use is similar to the configurations of predicate device. Although the components of the proposed device and the predicate device are not identical, this difference does not affect the indication for use of the device. In addition, a series of performance tests have been conducted on the proposed device to demonstrate that the proposed device meets the requirements of the relevant standards. Therefore, it can be considered that the minor differences in the components will not affect the Substantial Equivalence (SE) between the proposed and predicate device.

Similar Analysis - Safety feature activation forces

The activation force of the Safety Pen Needle for Single Use is similar to the predicate device. The activation force difference between the two devices is 0.02N. In addition, activation force met the acceptance criteria. Therefore, the minor difference in activation force will not affect the Substantial Equivalence (SE) between the proposed and predicate device.

Different Analysis -Material

The materials for Safety Pen Needle for Single Use is different from the predicate device. However, biocompatibility testing has been performed on the proposed device and the results do not show any

12

adverse effect. Therefore, this difference will not affect the Substantial Equivalence (SE) between the proposed and predicate device.

Table 2 Comparison of Insulin Pen Needle

13

Different Analysis -Configuration

The components of Insulin Pen Needle are different to that of predicate device. The proposed device does not have a safety mechanism; however, the presence or absence of a safety mechanism does not affect the indication for use and the performance of the device. In addition, a series of performance tests have been conducted on the proposed device and the results showed that the product meets the requirements of the relevant standards. Therefore, this difference does not affect the Substantial Equivalence (SE) between the proposed and predicate device.

Different Analysis – Needle Gauge

The needle gauge of Insulin Pen Needle is different from predicate devices. The proposed 33G and 34G can be covered by the predicate device, while the proposed 28G is out of the specification range of predicate device. However, all the needle size of proposed device has been tested. The test results comply with ISO 7864 and ISO 9626 standards requirements. Therefore, this difference does not affect the Substantial Equivalence (SE) between the proposed and predicate device.

Different Analysis - Needle length

Compared with the predicate device, the Insulin Pen Needle has the additional 10mm and 13mm length specifications. However, these two additional length specifications have been tested. The test results comply with ISO 7864 and ISO 9626 standards requirements. Therefore, this difference does not affect the Substantial Equivalence (SE) between the proposed and predicate device.

14

Different Analysis -Material

The material for Safety Pen Needle for Single Use is different from the predicate device. However, biocompatibility testing has been performed on the proposed device and the results do not show any adverse effect. Therefore, this difference will not affect the Substantial Equivalence (SE) between the proposed and predicate device.

    1. Substantially Equivalent (SE) Conclusion
      The non-clinical tests demonstrate that the Safety Pen Needle for Single Use and Insulin Pen Needle are Substantially Equivalent (SE) to the legally marketed predicate device cleared under K181447.
