No
The device is a simple empty fluid container for IV administration and the description focuses on its physical properties, materials, and ports. There is no mention of any computational or analytical capabilities.
No.
Explanation: The device is described as an "Empty Fluid Container" used to hold an admixture of fluids for intravenous administration. It does not exert any therapeutic action on the patient but rather serves as a containment and delivery system for therapeutic agents. Its function is to facilitate the administration of medication, not to directly treat a condition.
No
Explanation: The device is described as an "Empty Fluid Container" used to hold an admixture of compatible fluids for intravenous administration. Its function is to contain and facilitate the transfer of fluids, not to diagnose medical conditions or analyze patient health.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical, single-use, sterile, nonpyrogenic flexible IV container/bag made of non-PVC materials with ports and integrated components. This is a hardware device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "hold an admixture of compatible fluids for intravenous administration to a patient." This describes a container for delivering substances into the body, not for testing samples from the body to diagnose or monitor a condition.
- Device Description: The description details a flexible bag with ports for filling and administration of fluids. This aligns with a container for IV therapy, not a device for performing diagnostic tests on biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any components or functions related to:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring specific analytes (markers of disease, etc.)
- Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
The device is clearly designed for the preparation and administration of intravenous fluids, which falls under the category of medical devices used for treatment, not diagnosis.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use

Device Description
The eZSURE™ Empty Fluid Container (EFC) devices are empty single-use, sterile, nonpyrogenic flexible IV container devices/ bags. These are discarded after use. The Subject EFC is made of non-PVC materials. The Nexcel Film for IV bag of the Subject EFC device is composed of a flexible plastic film bag and the device is provided in a two-port configuration with closures.
A closed system inlet-/ entry-/ additive- port is used for filling one or more compatible fluid(s) into the bag by a transfer set/ syringe without needle with the ProSeal™ Injector or ProSeal™ Injector Plus (cleared K240171) attached, and another port, the spiking/ administration port, is used for accessing the infusate in the bag with a standard bag spike in an IV therapy administration from the EFC. The transfer device with a male Luer lock attached with the ProSeal™ Injector (or ProSeal™ Injector Plus) is used to connect to the filling-/ additive- port for filling. The additive port incorporates a ProSeal™ Injection Site (cleared K240433) as its integrated subcomponent; hence no other injection needle/ cannula is needed. The transfer device is removed at the end of the preparation step, and the self-sealing additive-/ injection-/ filling- port secures the admixture contents until their administration.
The closed transfer of liquid that takes place with the use of the ProSeal™ CSTD system (K240433) as follows:
- A double membrane septum design utilizing self-sealing elastomeric membranes tightly fit together when the system components engage. A cannula within the ProSeal™ Injector (or ProSeal™ Injector Plus) housing perforates the double membrane for the transfer of liquid. When the cannula is retracted, the membranes seal off the transfer of environments into the system and/or escape of drug or vapor concentrations outside the system, thereby minimizing the individual and environmental exposure to drug vapor, aerosols, and spills, and also minimizing the risk of microbial contamination.
For administration to a patient, the device is then connected to an external IV set /IV line, via a bag spike. The IV bag is piped by inserting the spike point of a bag spike into the spiking-/administration- port of the IV bag, doing this by performing a twisting motion. When the bag is already filled, other medications can be added using the additive/ injection/ filling port, even during administration. Medication transfer in and out of the container is done using aseptic technique. The bags range in volume capacities of 100 mL, 250 mL, and 500 mL.
The EFC sub-components are externally communicating devices with no contact to the blood path. Contact duration is categorized as B-prolonged, (>24h to 30d), per ISO 10993-1: 2018 biocompatibility guidelines.

IV. Device Description
The purpose of this Special 510(k) Submission is to seek FDA clearance prior to the introduction in the US, of a modified design of the existing eZSURE™ Empty Fluid Container - the Subject eZSURE™ Empty Fluid Container with ProSeal™ Injection Site. This device is an addition to the ProSeal™ CSTD system of devices (cleared K240433). The existing device, and also the nominated Predicate device, is the eZSURE™ Empty Fluid Container (cleared K223674).
The eZSURE™ Empty Fluid Container (EFC) devices are empty single-use, sterile, nonpyrogenic flexible IV container devices/ bags. These are discarded after use. The Subject EFC is made of non-PVC materials. The Nexcel Film for IV bag of the Subject EFC device is composed of a flexible plastic film bag and the device is provided in a two-port configuration with closures.
A closed system inlet-/ entry-/ additive- port is used for filling one or more compatible fluid(s) into the bag by a transfer set/ syringe without needle with the ProSeal™ Injector or ProSeal™ Injector Plus (cleared K240171) attached, and another port, the spiking/ administration port, is used for accessing the infusate in the bag with a standard bag spike in an IV therapy administration from the EFC. The transfer device with a male Luer lock attached with the ProSeal™ Injector (or ProSeal™ Injector Plus) is used to connect to the filling-/ additive- port for filling. The additive port incorporates a ProSeal™ Injection Site (cleared K240433) as its integrated subcomponent; hence no other injection needle/ cannula is needed. The transfer device is removed at the end of the preparation step, and the self-sealing additive-/ injection-/ filling- port secures the admixture contents until their administration.
The closed transfer of liquid that takes place with the use of the ProSeal™ CSTD system (K240433) as follows:
- · A double membrane septum design utilizing self-sealing elastomeric membranes tightly fit together when the system components engage. A cannula within the ProSeal™ Injector (or ProSeal™ Injector Plus) housing perforates the double membrane for the transfer of liquid. When the cannula is retracted, the membranes seal off the transfer of environments into the system and/or escape of drug or vapor concentrations outside the system, thereby minimizing the individual and environmental exposure to drug vapor, aerosols, and spills, and also minimizing the risk of microbial contamination.
For administration to a patient, the device is then connected to an external IV set /IV line, via a bag spike. The IV bag is piped by inserting the spike point of a bag spike into the spiking-/administration- port of the IV bag, doing this by performing a twisting motion. When the bag is already filled, other medications can be added using the additive/ injection/ filling port, even during administration. Medication transfer in and out of the container is done using aseptic technique. The bags range in volume capacities of 100 mL, 250 mL, and 500 mL.
The EFC sub-components are externally communicating devices with no contact to the blood path. Contact duration is categorized as B-prolonged, (>24h to 30d), per ISO 10993-1: 2018 biocompatibility guidelines.

Discussion of differences in technological characteristics
Comment #1
The membrane material of Subject device's closed system ProSeal™ Injection Site Extended Male Luer Lock (model 422140) (ProSeal™ Injection Site) is made of polyisoprene rubber (IR), the same as the IR present in Epic Medical Pte Ltd's cleared K240433, ProSeal™ Injection Site, in the same design configuration and it had been biologically evaluated to have conformed with ISO 10993-1: 2018. Therefore, biocompatibility testing was leveraged from K240433. Moreover, the functional performance of the assembled ProSeal™ Injection Site in the Subject device, had been adequately evaluated and as such, performance testing was leveraged form K240443. In additional bench top performance verification testing of the subject device over the shelf life was conducted to the standards listed in section VII.A second paragraph, hereunder, to demonstrate that the difference in technological characteristics do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness.
Comment #2
The 2024-03-28 cleared ProSeal™ Injector Plus (cleared K240171), a modified version of ProSeal™ Injector, is another option of an Injector available for users to use with the Subject Emptv Fluid Container devices. This difference does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness of the Subject device.
