Discussions of differences in technological characteristics

  • . Comment #1 Medline also has MEG as a product code since the proposed devices make an anti-stick claim. Both of these product codes are defined by the same FDA requlation number (21 CFR 880.5860), and this difference does not impact Medline's ability to claim substantial equivalence.
  • Comment # 2- Reference device cleared TB syringe 1mL with needle, 27Gx ½", Insulin syringe 1mL with needle 31G x 5/16″ and 0.5ml, 31Gx5/16" (K153537). Reference device cleared 1mL syringes with needle in 31Gx 6mm (K220061). The addition of 27Gx1/2", Insulin syringe 1mL with needle 31G x 5/16 including the 1ml with needle in 31Gx6mm does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness than the predicate device.
  • . Comment #3-The TB syringe cap colors are different among the proposed device and predicate device. Biocompatibility on the caps was conducted and supports that this difference does not impact the safety and effectiveness of the device to claim substantially equivalent to the predicate.
