No
The description focuses on the mechanical and software controls for automated contrast media administration using a peristaltic pump, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities for decision-making, image analysis, or adaptive control.
No
The device is a contrast media management system used for diagnostic examinations, not for treating a disease or condition.
No
This device is a contrast media management system used to administer contrast media and saline during diagnostic examinations; it does not perform the diagnostic examination itself.
No
The device description clearly states that the ulricheasyINJECT Max device consists of a terminal, injector, and tubing system, and describes physical components like a mobile pedestal device, peristaltic pump, spikes, cassette, and patient tubing. It also mentions hardware controls. This indicates it is a hardware device with integrated software, not a software-only medical device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The ulricheasyINJECT Max is a contrast media management system used for the administration of contrast media and saline into the human body during diagnostic imaging procedures (MRI). It does not perform any tests on samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for the "controlled, automatic administration... to human subjects undergoing diagnostic examinations." This describes a therapeutic or procedural function, not an in vitro diagnostic function.
Therefore, the ulricheasyINJECT Max falls under the category of a medical device used for administering substances to a patient, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
ulricheasyINJECT Max is a syringeless contrast media management system that is designed for the controlled, automatic venous administration of contrast media in conjunction with physiological saline solution to human subjects undergoing diagnostic examinations in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI or PET MRI).
The ulricheasyINJECT Max device consists of a terminal, injector, and tubing system. The injector is a mobile pedestal device that consists of an injector base with rechargeable battery. The tubing system is the only component that comes in contact with the patient and has indirect contact with the blood path of a patient for a limited duration (few minutes). The tubing system consists of the following three components:
- Spikes,
- Easy-Click-Cassette flex
- Patient Tubing
The ulricheasyINJECT Max uses a peristaltic pump as part of the injector which is designed to transport the media fluid through the tubing system (spikes, cassette, and patient tubing). ulricheasyINJECT Max is intended to be used with the following components that are not supplied with the system:
- Saline containers.
- Single-dose contrast media bottles,
- IBP contrast media containers, and
- Cannula.
ulricheasyINJECT Max is equipped with multiple hardware and software controls that work together for the safe operation of the intended use of the system. Controls include air detectors to detect the presence of air in the tubing system without direct contact with the medium, pressure controls to manage and regulate pressure inside the tubing system, and check valves to prevent backflow of media and avoid retrograde contamination.
The ulricheasyINJECT Max is provided in three models:
- ulricheasyINJECT Max 2M (XD 10140),
- ulricheasyINJECT Max 3 (XD 10150), and
- ulricheasyINJECT Max 3 (XD 10180).
The Max 3 models have 3 media connection points: 1 NaCl and 2 Contrast Media connections. The Max 2M has 2 media connection points: 1 NaCl and 1 Contrast Media connections. Max 2M and Max 3 are technically identical except the different available media connection points.

Non-Clinical Testing
ulricheasyINJECT Max system and software were validated in accordance with a Verification & Validation plan to ensure conformance with established performance criteria.
Software
Software verification and validation was performed as part of K233737 and has been repeated for the software updates made as part of this submission.
Electromagnetic Compatibility / Electrical Safety Testing
Electromagnetic compatibility and electrical safety testing was performed in accordance with the following standard as part of K233737:
- IEC 60601-1:2005, AMD 1:2012, AMD 2:2020 and under compliance with the FDA recognized . standard ANSI AAMI ES60601-1:2005/(R)2012 & A1:2012, C1:2009/(R)2012 & A2:2010/(R)2012 (Cons. Text) [Incl. AMD2:2021] Medical electrical equipment - Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance (IEC 60601-1:2005, MOD) [Including Amendment 2 (2021)].
Sterilization Validation
The ulricheasyINJECT Max System is ethylene oxide (EtO) sterilized and was validated to a sterility assurance level of 10-6 as part of K233737.
Shelf Life and Transport Validation
Real-time aging and accelerated aging studies were performed as part of K233737. The ulricheasyINJECT Max tubing system is sterilized and its packaging was validated.
ulrich performed transport validation on the ulricheasyINJECT Max tubing system, injector, and terminal as part of K233737.
Chemical Compatibility
In addition to Chemical Compatibility testing performed in support of K233737, additional Chemical Compatibility testing was performed to support the material compatibility of the ulricheasyINJECT Max tubing system with the following contrast media:
- . Gadobutrol single dose bottle,
- . Gadavist™ (gadobutrol) IBP,
- Gadobutrol IBP.
Contamination Control and Rinsing
ulrich performed Contamination Control and Rinsing Studies for the ulricheasyINJECT Max as part of K233737.
- A microbial ingress study demonstrated the ability of the ulricheasyINJECT Max system to ● prevent the ingress of microorganisms during use.
- . A cross contamination study demonstrated the effectiveness of the tubing system in preventing contamination from one patient to another.
- . A rinsing study demonstrated that the residuals of the single active compounds after rinsing the system with physiological saline solution are within the defined limits.
15
Biocompatibility
The ulricheasyINJECT Max tubing system indirect patient contact materials were verified in accordance with the following standards as part of K233737:
- . ISO 10993-1, Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process.
Verification results indicated that the materials comply with the standard.
Performance – Bench
The ulricheasyINJECT Max tubing system was tested for performance and verified in accordance with the following standard as part of K233737:
- . ISO 8536-4:2010, Infusion equipment for medical use - Part 4: Infusion sets for single use, gravity feed
ulricheasyINJECT tubing system is not a gravity feed device; therefore, only the applicable requirements from ISO 8536-4 were tested.
Test and verification results indicated that the ulricheasyINJECT Max tubing system conforms to its predetermined specifications and the applicable standards.
Extractables and Simulation
Testing included extractables and simulation testing for leachable compounds as part of K233737.
Human Factors / Usability
A usability study was performed as part of K233737 to confirm that the ulricheasylNJECT Max is safe and effective for use by its intended users.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the intended use of the ulricheasyINJECT Max is the same as that of the predicate device (K233737). The differences between the predicate and subject device do not raise any new or different questions of safety and effectiveness. The non-clinical testing has demonstrated that the ulricheasylNJECT Max is substantially equivalent to the predicate device (K233737).
