Intended Use
The Remington Medical Disposable Surgical Extension Cable is an electrical excesson cable. used to transmit signal from, or power or excitation signal to patient-connected electrodes. The cable is bipolar, providing alligator clips at the end of the cable that will be attached to the patient's lead, and a safety plug at the other end that allows electrical connection to the external pacemaker or testing device (i.e. analyzer). The alligator clips are color coded and imprinted with the polarity: The red clips are positive (+) and the black clips are negative (-). The cable is designed to carry a maximum electrical load of 300 volts, and will be compatible with most external pace makers, pace analyzers, and patient pacing leads currently on the market. The cable is a sterile, disposable device.

No
The device description is for a simple electrical extension cable and there is no mention of AI or ML in the provided text.

No
The device is an extension cable used to transmit signals or power from external pacemakers or testing devices to patient-connected electrodes; it does not directly provide therapy.

No

Explanation: The device is an extension cable used to connect patient leads to external pacemakers or testing devices. It transmits signals or power but does not perform any diagnostic function itself.

No

The device is described as an electrical extension cable with physical components (alligator clips, safety plug) designed to transmit electrical signals and power. It is a sterile, disposable hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device function: The Remington Medical Disposable Surgical Extension Cable is described as an electrical extension cable used to transmit signals or power to patient-connected electrodes. It connects to external pacemakers, pace analyzers, and patient pacing leads.
  • Lack of in vitro testing: The description focuses on electrical connections and signal transmission within the context of a patient's body (connected to leads). There is no mention of analyzing biological specimens or performing tests outside of the body.

Therefore, the device's function and intended use clearly fall outside the scope of In Vitro Diagnostics.

Trade/Device Name: Safe Connect Surgical Cable Regulation Number: 21 CFR 870.5550 Regulation Name: Patient transducer and electrode cable (including connector) Regulatory Class: II Product Code: DSA Dated (Date on orig SE ltr): July 23, 1997 Received (Date on orig SE 1tr): May 28, 1997

Dear Mr. Rosvold:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of July 23, 1997.

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to continue marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0120.
