Intended Use

The SIGMA Spectrum Infusion Pump with Master Drug Library is intended to be used for the controlled administration of fluids. These may include pharmaceutical drugs, blood, blood products and mixtures of required patient therapy. The intended routes of administration consist of the following clinically accepted routes: intravenous, arterial, subcutaneous, or epidural. The SIGMA Spectrum Infusion Pump with Master Drug Library is intended to be used in conjunction with legally marketed and compatible intravenous administration sets and medications provided by the user.

The SIGMA Spectrum Infusion Pump with Master Drug Library is suitable for a variety of patient care environments such as, but not limited to, hospitals and outpatient care areas.

The SIGMA Spectrum Infusion Pump with Master Drug Library is intended to reduce operator interaction through guided programming, thereby helping to reduce errors. The SIGMA Spectrum Infusion Pump with Master Drug Library is intended to be used by trained healthcare professionals.

Device Description

SIGMA Spectrum is a large volume pump within the SIGMA Spectrum infusion system used by clinicians at the patient bedside to control the delivery of medications from a bag. The pump moves fluid from the bag to the patient via specified administration sets using a peristaltic pumping action. The pump offers various programmable delivery modes to address specific patient care needs. The delivery modes available to support the patient are determined by how the pump and its associated drug library are configured.

The pump provides delivery of fluids into a patient in a controlled manner, as identified in 21 CFR 880.5725. The system includes a software controlled, electromechanical pump used for the controlled administration of fluids including pharmaceutical drugs, blood, blood products, and mixtures of required patient therapy through administration sets at clinician's selectable rates and volumes.

The pump is intended for the controlled administration of fluids through the following clinically accepted routes of administration: intravenous, arterial, subcutaneous, and epidural. The pump is intended to be used in conjunction with legally marketed and compatible administration sets, as indicated in the device labeling, and medications provided by the user. The subject device is suitable for patient care in hospitals and outpatient health care facilities.

The Master Drug Library (MDL) is a stand-alone (not embedded in the pump) software application installed on a hospital-provided computing platform and used to create a drug library file. MDL facilitates the generation, configuration, and management of a facility-specific drug library file for dedicated infusion pumps. The drug library file is intended to be distributed to all compatible infusion pumps in the hospital.

This submission includes software design and labeling changes to address the issues leading to recalls Z-0530-2022 and Z-2103-2023.

AI/ML Overview

This FDA 510(k) clearance letter pertains to an infusion pump, not an AI/ML powered medical device. Therefore, many of the requested categories in your prompt (such as "Number of experts used to establish the ground truth," "Adjudication method," "MRMC study," "Standalone performance," "Type of ground truth," and "Training set sample size/ground truth establishment") are not applicable to this type of medical device submission.

The document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device through a comparison of technical characteristics and verification of performance against established requirements.

Here's an analysis based on the provided document:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document does not explicitly state "acceptance criteria" for the overall device in a quantifiable manner that would typically be found in an AI/ML context (e.g., specific sensitivity, specificity, or AUC targets). Instead, it demonstrates compliance with a range of technical specifications, which inherently act as acceptance criteria for the design and performance. The "Reported Device Performance" is implied by the statement that "Non-clinical testing met all acceptance criteria."

Below is a table summarizing key technical characteristics that function as performance criteria for the infusion pump. Since the subject device is deemed "substantially equivalent" to the predicate, and no new performance claims are made that deviate from the predicate, their performance characteristics are identical as presented.

§ 880.5725 Infusion pump.

(a)
Identification. An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
