Intended Use
The ONECATH Catheter System is designed for use when patient therapy requires repeated venous access or prolonged intravenous administration of fluids, medications, and/or nutritional solutions as prescribed. The catheter is designed to be inserted in a peripheral vein. While any vessel suitable for insertion may be used; the basilic vein is the most commonly used vein.
Device Description
The ONECATH Catheter System consists of a SafeSide DEVICE DESCRIPTION: II® introducer and a radiopaque single lumen polyurethane catheter with a clear tip. The SafeSideII introducer consists of a stainless steel needle and a two-part locking needle protection device with a flashback chamber and introducer protector. The 60, 50 and 20 cm catheters are marked in 5cm increments, in a linear tear protective sleeve. For the 60, 50 and 20 cm catheters a stylet is pre-inserted through the Y-site injection port that is connected to the catheter. A vent plug is inserted in the side port of the Y-site. The SafeSide II introducer is pre-inserted in the catheter through an aperture approximately 2cm from the tip. The ONECATH catheter system is available in various lengths of 60. 50 and 20 cm and is packaged in a two-part tray in a pouch. The ONECATH 5cm catheter is packaged in a pouch with a hemostasis valve. The product contains no DEHP or latex. The female luer is lipid resistant. Non serrated forceps are included.
More Information

No
The provided text describes a standard catheter system and its components. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML applications in medical devices. The description focuses on the physical characteristics and intended use of the catheter.

No.
The document states that the device is "designed for use when patient therapy requires repeated venous access or prolonged intravenous administration of fluids, medications, and/or nutritional solutions." It facilitates the delivery of therapy but is not a therapeutic device itself.

No.
The device is described as a catheter system for repeated venous access or prolonged intravenous administration of fluids, medications, and/or nutritional solutions, which indicates it is used for therapy and delivery, not diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components such as a catheter, introducer, needle, stylet, and packaging, indicating it is a hardware medical device.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • ONECATH Function: The ONECATH Catheter System is designed for direct insertion into a patient's vein for the administration of fluids, medications, and nutritional solutions. It is a device used on the patient, not for testing specimens from the patient.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples. It focuses on the physical components for venous access.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the ONECATH Catheter System is a medical device used for patient therapy, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 880.5970 Percutaneous, implanted, long-term intravascular catheter.

(a)
Identification. A percutaneous, implanted, long-term intravascular catheter is a device that consists of a slender tube and any necessary connecting fittings, such as luer hubs, and accessories that facilitate the placement of the device. The device allows for repeated access to the vascular system for long-term use of 30 days or more, and it is intended for administration of fluids, medications, and nutrients; the sampling of blood; and monitoring blood pressure and temperature. The device may be constructed of metal, rubber, plastic, composite materials, or any combination of these materials and may be of single or multiple lumen design.(b)

60, 50 and 20 cm catheters a stylet is pre-inserted through the Y-site injection port that is connected to the catheter. A vent plug is inserted in the side port of the Y-site. The SafeSide II introducer is pre-inserted in the catheter through an aperture approximately 2cm from the tip. The ONECATH catheter system is available in various lengths of 60. 50 and 20 cm and is packaged in a two-part tray in a pouch. The ONECATH 5cm catheter is packaged in a pouch with a hemostasis valve. The product contains no DEHP or latex. The female luer is lipid resistant. Non serrated forceps are included.

The basic device is essentially the same as the original SUMMARY: ONECATH with a minor change in tip configuration. There is no change in intended use.

SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE: The ONECATH has been marketed since 1994 with no reported adverse effects.

The modification poses no additional risks or potential questions of efficacy.

The results of use of this catheter system indicates that it is acceptable for human implant.

Based on the proposed modification and the device similarity to the original in material, design and intended use the device is considered to be substantially equivalent.

Extensive studies are available in the scientific literature to POTENTIAL COMPLICATIONS: address the known complications from the insertion of The types and causes of safety and/or catheters. effectiveness problems that have been reported in use of infusion catheters are well known.

The potential exists for serious complications, some of which are as follows:
