More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a device that captures and transmits dosing information. There is no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The focus is on data capture, transmission accuracy, and physical interaction with the pen.

No.
The device is indicated for the capture and wireless transmission of dosing information from compatible pen injectors, and performance studies confirm it does not affect the dose accuracy of the pen. It does not actively treat or diagnose a condition.

No

The device is described as capturing and transmitting dosing information from pen injectors. Its function is to monitor and record drug delivery, not to diagnose a medical condition. Performance studies focus on the accuracy of data capture and transmission, not on the identification of diseases or conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is made of a cap and includes a USB cable for charging, indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, the SoloSmart Injection Pen Adapter is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to capture and transmit dosing information from injection pens. This is related to drug delivery and patient adherence, not to performing tests on biological samples to diagnose or monitor a medical condition.
  • Device Description: The device is an adapter that attaches to an injection pen. It doesn't contain reagents, test strips, or other components typically associated with IVD devices.
  • Lack of IVD-Specific Information: The description does not mention any biological samples, analytical methods, or diagnostic purposes.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the device's ability to accurately record and transmit dosing information, its physical interaction with the pen, biocompatibility, and electrical safety. These are not typical performance metrics for IVD devices, which would focus on analytical accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, etc.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. The SoloSmart Injection Pen Adapter does not perform any such function.

Dear Alexia Garin:

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 (the 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 available 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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).
