Intended Use
The BD Vacutainer® UltraTouch™ Push Button Blood Collection Set is a sterile, multi-sample, single-use fixed winged blood collection set intended to be used by trained healthcare professionals for venipuncture to obtain blood specimens from patients, including those patients with difficult vein access who may have small, fragile, and/or non-palpable veins, into evacuated blood collection tubes and/or blood culture bottles. When used without the male adapter, the device allows the clinician to obtain a blood specimen from the female hub with a syringe, if necessary. The device can be used for short-term, single infusions with consideration given to patient size and appropriateness for the solution being infused. The device is not to be left in place and is to remain under the direct supervision of a clinician. The recommended use of the device is to activate the needle safety feature prior to removal from the venipuncture site. The retraction of the intravenous (IV) end of the needle aids in the prevention of accidental needlestick injury.
Device Description
The BD Vacutainer® UltraTouch™ Push Button Blood Collection Set is a winged blood collection set with flexible tubing, a female luer connector and a male luer adapter. The BD Vacutainer® UltraTouch™ Push Button Blood Collection Set also contains a needle protector. The BD Vacutainer® UltraTouch™ Push Button Blood Collection Set models available consist of a combination of different needle gauges (21G, 23G, 25G), tubing length (12-inch, 7 inch), and are available with or without a pre-attached holder.
More Information

No
The device description and intended use are purely mechanical and do not mention any computational or analytical capabilities. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".

No
Explanation: The device is primarily intended for obtaining blood specimens and short-term, single infusions, not for treating a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: This device is explicitly described as a "blood collection set" intended for "venipuncture to obtain blood specimens." Its purpose is to collect samples, not to analyze them or provide diagnostic information.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like needles, tubing, connectors, and a needle protector, indicating it is a hardware device.

Based on the provided text, the BD Vacutainer® UltraTouch™ Push Button Blood Collection Set is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The primary intended use is for venipuncture to obtain blood specimens from patients. While these specimens are used for in vitro diagnostic testing, the device itself is the tool for collecting the sample, not for performing the diagnostic test on the sample.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical components of a blood collection set (needles, tubing, connectors, holder). It does not describe any components or functions related to analyzing or testing the blood sample.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any features or processes related to:
    • Analyzing biological samples in vitro.
    • Detecting or measuring substances in the blood.
    • Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health.

The device is a blood collection device, which is a tool used in the process of obtaining samples for IVD testing, but it is not an IVD device itself.

Predicate Device(s)

BD Vacutainer® UltraTouch™ Push Button Blood Collection Set (K153309)

Device Description

The BD Vacutainer® UltraTouch™ Push Button Blood Collection Set is a winged blood collection set with flexible tubing, a female luer connector and a male luer adapter. The BD Vacutainer® UltraTouch™ Push Button Blood Collection Set also contains a needle protector.

5

The BD Vacutainer® UltraTouch™ Push Button Blood Collection Set models available consist of a combination of different needle gauges (21G, 23G, 25G), tubing length (12-inch, 7 inch), and are available with or without a pre-attached holder.

Indications For Use

The proposed indications for use, are similar to the predicate indications for use, except for the inclusion of both healthy patients with vascular anatomy and/or co-morbidities which may cause difficulty in locating a vein. Healthy patients and patients with these conditions often exhibit small, fragile, non-palpable veins, commonly referred to as difficult vein access (DVA). The addition of DVA in the revised indications for use statement does not significantly change the intended use as butterfly needles have historically been used on patients with small veins and similar statements were included for previous device iterations and were inadvertently removed in subsequent submissions. BD believes that the addition of specific reference to patients with DVA does not raise new questions of safety/effectiveness.

Substantial Equivalence Discussion:

Comment #1

The subject device indicates that the intended population is for general use, including a subset of patients who may have difficult veins, whereas the predicate device population is general use. Both devices are used on all patient populations regardless of their vein status. Adding a reference to patients with difficult veins has no effect on clinical safety or effectiveness.

Comment #2

The subject device is available in models with and without a pre-attached holder. The predicate device is only available in models without the pre-attached holder and requires the user to add a holder in order to use the device for blood collection. Adding models with the pre-attached holder to the subject device is a user convenience and does not affect clinical safety or effectiveness.

Technical Performance Summarv

The sponsor has determined that since the subject and predicate blood collection sets are the same, and the BD Vacutainer® Brand Holder is unchanged from clearance under K181730, new performance testing is not required. Specifically, because there has been no significant change to design, product materials, packaging materials, processing/assembly, packaging, or manufacturing that would affect device performance no new performance testing is provided in support of this submission.

Conclusion

The technical performance characteristics of the subject device are unchanged. The clinical literature, BD's sponsored studies, and Investigator sponsored studies sufficiently support the determination that patients with Difficult Vein Access (DVA) is a subset of the current patient population for the BD Vacutainer® UltraTouch™ Push Button Blood Collection Set. The risk profile of patients with DVA is not substantially different from that of the general patient population and is supported by the extensive clinical literature evidence presented under this submission. Based on information provided in this submission the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
