More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a standard medical device (Foley catheter) and does not mention any AI or ML components or capabilities.

Yes.
The device is a Foley Catheter used for routine drainage of the bladder, which is a therapeutic function.

No

Explanation: The device description and intended use clearly state that the Foley catheters are for "routine drainage of the bladder" and "bladder irrigation," which are therapeutic or supportive functions, not diagnostic ones. There is no mention of the device being used to identify or analyze a condition.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical medical device (catheter) made of latex with various physical components (funnel, valve, balloon, channels). There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for routine drainage of the bladder and bladder irrigation. This is a direct therapeutic or management function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical catheter designed to be inserted into the body for drainage and irrigation. It does not describe any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological sample to provide diagnostic information. The device's function is purely mechanical and related to fluid management within the body.

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 does not fit that description.

Dear Angela Bouse:

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).

Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97).

As evidenced by the above table, both the subject and the predicate devices have similar intended use, but the subject and predicate devices have different technological characteristics. The differences in technological characteristics between the subject and the predicate does not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness.

7. SUMMARY OF NONCLINICAL TESTING:

Below is a list of the tests that were performed and successfully completed for the subject device per the specified guidance and standards:

  • . Biocompatibility was conducted per ISO 10993-1:2018- Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices -Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process and Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff: Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, "Biological evaluation of medical devices--Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process", issued September 2023. The following tests were conducted in the biocompatibility assessment of the device:
    • o Cytotoxicity per ISO 10993-5:2009.
    • Sensitization per ISO 10993-10:2021. O
    • Irritation per ISO 10993-23:2021. O
    • Acute Systemic Toxicity per ISO 10993-11:2017. O
    • Subacute Systemic Toxicity per ISO 10993-11:2017. O
    • Material Mediated Pyrogenicity per ISO 10993-11:2017. O
    • Implantation per ISO 10993-6:2016. O

The results of biocompatibility testing demonstrate that the subject device is biocompatible.

  • . Sterilization validation was conducted per the following FDA-recognized standards:
    • ISO 11137-1:2006 (R)2015 Sterilization of healthcare products Radiation Part 1: O Requirements for development, validation and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices.
    • ISO 11137-1:2013 Sterilization of healthcare products Radiation Part 2: Establishing the o sterilization dose.

7

  • Accelerated aging was performed in conformance with ASTM F1980-16, Standard Guide for ● Accelerated Aging of Sterile Barrier Systems for Medical Devices to support the shelf life of the device. The results of accelerated aging testing demonstrate that the subject device maintains its function performance and that its packaging maintains the sterility of the device over the duration of its shelf life via bench testing and transportation simulation and package integrity testing, respectively.
  • . Performance/Functional testing was conducted per ASTM 623-19 Standard Performance Specification for Foley Catheter. The subject device met the acceptance criteria outlined in the standard.

8. CONCLUSIONS

Based on the information presented in this submission, it can be concluded that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
