More Information

No
The summary describes a system of tubing and connectors for cardiopulmonary bypass, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The performance studies focus on material properties and mechanical performance.

No
Explanation: The device is tubing and connectors used in extracorporeal support systems during surgery. While part of a system that supports life functions, the tubing and connectors themselves do not directly treat or cure a disease or condition; they facilitate the operation of other therapeutic components.

No

The device is described as "tubing and connectors" for "extracorporeal support" during surgery requiring "cardiopulmonary bypass." Its function is to facilitate the flow of fluids, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is "tubing and connectors," which are physical hardware components, not software. The performance studies also focus on physical properties and testing of these hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "surgical procedures requiring extracorporeal support for periods of up to six hours." This describes a device used during a surgical procedure on a patient, not a test performed on a sample from a patient to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The device is described as "part of the Heart/Lung Perfusion Pack... designed for use during surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass." This further reinforces its use in a surgical setting.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information. The testing performed is focused on the physical and biological compatibility of the tubing and connectors with blood flow, which is typical for devices used in extracorporeal circulation.

IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device does not fit that description.

Indications for Use Comparison21 CFR 807.92(a)(5)
-------------------------------------------------------

The SMARxT Tubings and Connectors (modified device) are substantially equivalent to its cleared predicate device. SMARxT Tubing and Connectors (modified device) and its cleared predicate device have the same indication for use. Minor wording updates do not change the intent and scope of the indication for use.

Technological Comparison21 CFR 807.92(a)(6)
-------------------------------------------------

4

The SMARxT Tubing and Connectors subject device has the same principles of operation and design as the SMARxT Tubing and Connectors unmodified device.

The SMARxT Tubing and Connectors modified device and the SMARxT Tubing and Connectors unmodified device share the same fundamental technological characteristics except for the surface treatment that does not affect the basic device function. Teqomer additive material is changing from Tegomer H-Si6441 P blended into a polymeric resin for connectors and in polyvinylchloride (PVC) tubing which are components used in cardiopulmonary surgery perfusion circuits.

The two Tegomer products behave similarly when blended with PVC tubing.

Chemical analysis indicates that the two materials are chemically equivalent, and this is confirmed also by the performance testing and toxicological assessment.
