The description focuses on the mechanical safety features of a needle guard and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.
No
The device is described as a "safety guard" for a pre-filled syringe, designed to reduce accidental needle sticks during disposal, rather than providing or facilitating a medical treatment.
No
The device, an UltraSafe® Injection System Needle Guard, is described as an accessory for pre-filled syringes, designed to prevent accidental needle sticks. Its function is to cover the needle after use, not to diagnose medical conditions or analyze biological samples for diagnostic purposes.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical needle guard accessory for a syringe, not a software application.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to reduce accidental needle sticks during disposal of a pre-filled syringe used for parenteral administration. This is a safety feature for the user, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample from the patient.
- Device Description: The device is described as a "safety guard" that covers the needle after use. It's an accessory to a pre-filled syringe, not a device that analyzes biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health condition.
The device's function is purely mechanical and related to user safety during the disposal of a used syringe.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Each UltraSafe® Injection System Needle Guard is attached to an ISO standard glass syringe that is pre-filled and equipped with a shield that covers the needle during disposal intending to reduce the occurrence of accidental needle sticks to users. This device is used for a wide range of patients from children to adults and parenteral methods of administration.

Device Description
The UltraSafe® Needle Guerd is an accessory to the ISO 11040-4 standard glass syringe that is pre-filled. The device is totally disposable. It is a safety guard that can be mated with a pre-filled syringe of the same size. After use of the syringe, the guard is activated covering the needle and thus protecting the caregiver by eliminating the need to recap the needle and minimizing accidental needle stick injuries during disposal of the syringe/needle.

Comparison to Predicate Devices/Equivalence 9.5
Descriptive Comparison to Legally Marketed Devices The Needle Guard requires a two-handed action in order to cover the needle point after use.
The Needle Guards have been tested and found to have considerably greater strength than the predicate device. The Guard is easy to assemble and use with a prefilled syringe.
With the Needle Guards in the "ready-to-use" position, they provide the same useable needle length as an unguarded needle. The user can perform typical hypodermic procedures equivalently to standard, unguarded needles.
9.6 Comparison of Materials
The UltraSafe® Injection System Needle Guards are made of K-Resin KR03 and KR01, which are the same materials as the Safety Syringes predicate device.
9.7 Safety and Efficacy Information
Biocompatibility:
The UltraSafe® Injection System uses the same material as the Safety Syringes predicate device. The material has passed biocompatibility tests.
Labeled Warning Statements: Hands must remain behind the needle at all times during use and disposal.
