Intended Use
The RyMed Technologies SLAV™ Injection Port Systems are intended for single patient use in intravenous and blood administration.
Device Description
The RyMed Technologies SLAV™ Injection Port Systems are composed of either a Heparin Lock Injection Port, or a Y-Injection Site Port that contain a specialized two piece valve made from a medical grade clear plastic and a medical grade Slicone material. This specialized valve completely eliminates the use of Needles forcing compliance with the new OSHA standards of safety avoiding accidental needle stick injuries, the valve also provides excellent fluid Flow Rates, requires very low Priming Volumes, and it eliminates "dead spaces" that could entrap blood. This valve has the ability to activate injection ports a minimum of 100 times without leaking or change in its performance.

No
The description focuses on the mechanical design and performance characteristics of a valve-based injection port system, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
The device description indicates its purpose is for intravenous and blood administration and to prevent needle stick injuries, not to treat any specific medical condition.

No

The device is an injection port system for intravenous and blood administration, designed to facilitate fluid flow and prevent needle stick injuries. Its intended use and description do not involve diagnosing any medical conditions; rather, it is a tool for drug and fluid delivery.

No

The device description clearly states it is composed of physical components (plastic and silicone valve) and is intended for intravenous and blood administration, indicating a hardware-based medical device. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "for single patient use in intravenous and blood administration." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for delivering fluids and blood, not for testing samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical components and function of an injection port system used for administering fluids, not for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information.

Therefore, the RyMed Technologies SLAV™ Injection Port Systems are medical devices used for fluid administration, not IVDs.

§ 880.5440 Intravascular administration set.

(a)
Identification. An intravascular administration set is a device used to administer fluids from a container to a patient's vascular system through a needle or catheter inserted into a vein. The device may include the needle or catheter, tubing, a flow regulator, a drip chamber, an infusion line filter, an I.V. set stopcock, fluid delivery tubing, connectors between parts of the set, a side tube with a cap to serve as an injection site, and a hollow spike to penetrate and connect the tubing to an I.V. bag or other infusion fluid container.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for pharmacy compounding systems within this classification is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Pharmacy Compounding Systems; Final Guidance for Industry and FDA Reviewers.” Pharmacy compounding systems classified within the intravascular administration set are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of this part and subject to the limitations in § 880.9.
