Intended Use
The Sterile syringes for single use with/without needle is intended to be used for medical purposes to inject fluid into or withdraw fluid from body.
Device Description
The Sterile Syringes for Single Use with/without Needle is a three-piece, 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.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and sterilization of a standard syringe, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is described as a "Sterile syringe for single use with/without needle" intended "to inject fluid into or withdraw fluid from body," which performs a therapeutic function by delivering substances (like medication) or removing substances (like blood for diagnostic purposes, although the primary function for therapeutic devices is often the former) for the treatment, mitigation, or prevention of disease.

No

Explanation: The device description states its purpose is to inject or withdraw fluids, which is a treatment or collection function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components (polypropylene barrel, synthetic rubber stopper, plunger rod) and performance studies relate to material properties, sterilization, and physical testing, indicating a hardware device.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "to inject fluid into or withdraw fluid from body." This describes a direct interaction with the body for therapeutic or diagnostic purposes in vivo (within a living organism).
  • Device Description: The description details a syringe, which is a tool for administering or collecting substances from the body, not for testing those substances outside the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not perform any such examination of specimens.

The device described is a standard medical device used for administering or withdrawing fluids, which falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs.

Dear Esther Zhang:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

Discussion:

Different 1

The syringe volume, needle gauge and length of subject devices are different from the predicate device. The differences do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.

Different 2

The material of subject device is similar as predicate device. However, the

7

subjected products were tested and demonstrated that they complied with ISO 10993 series standards. The differences on material does not affect substantially equivalence on safety and effectiveness.

VIII Performance data

The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.

Biocompatibility testing

IX Conclusion

The predicate device submission was cleared with Sterile Hypodermic Syringe for Single use with/without Needle, Sterile Insulin Syringe for single use, with needle and Sterile Hypodermic Needle for single use. The subject device is being compared to only the predicate Sterile Hypodermic Syringe for Single use with/without Needle. The subject device, Sterile Syringes for Single Use with/without Needle, is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices (Sterile Hypodermic Syringe for Single use with/ without Needle). The non-clinical testing demonstrates that the device is as safe, as effective and performs as well as the legally marketed device. Therefore, it is substantially equivalent.
