Intended Use
The CAPIOX Cardioplegia is cardiopulmonary bypass heat exchanger consisting of a heat exchange system used in extracorporeal circulation to warm or cool the blood or perfusion fluid flowing through the device for periods up to 6 hours.
Device Description
CAPIOX® Cardioplegia consists of heat exchanger pipes, filter screen, casing, ports, screw ring, O-ring and potting material. A thermistor probe is located on the blood outlet port which can be connected to temperature monitoring equipment. The water ports can be connected to 1/2" inner diameter water tube or coupler (e.g. Hansen-quick connect). This device provides high heat exchanger performance and air trapping function. Blood (or perfusion fluid) flows through the heat exchanger pipes and water flows outside the pipes. Blood (or perfusion fluid) flow is counter-current to the water flow.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on the physical components and function of a heat exchanger, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is used to warm or cool blood or perfusion fluid during extracorporeal circulation, which is a therapeutic intervention to maintain physiological function.

No
Explanation: The device is a heat exchanger used during extracorporeal circulation to warm or cool blood, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one. While it has a thermistor probe for temperature monitoring, monitoring is part of treatment delivery, not diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly lists physical components such as heat exchanger pipes, filter screen, casing, ports, screw ring, O-ring, potting material, and a thermistor probe, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is used in extracorporeal circulation to warm or cool blood or perfusion fluid. This is a therapeutic/supportive function performed outside the body, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a heat exchanger system for managing temperature of fluids flowing through it. This aligns with the intended use and does not involve analyzing biological samples for diagnostic purposes.
  • 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 condition.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. This device does not fit that description.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Comparison of the CAPIOX® Cardioplegia and Sorin BCD Vanguard performance was conducted. A comparison of the Sarns Conducer was compared with the CAPIOX Cardioplegis for the water compartment pressure drop.

In summary, some differences in performance were observed between the CAPIOX Cardioplegia and the Sorin BCD Vanguard, however, these differences are not clinically significant nor do they raise new issues of safety or effectiveness.

SUMMARY OF SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS INFORMATION PERTAINING TO SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

Proprietary Device Name: CAPIOX® Cardioplegia

Classification Name: Cardiovascular heat exchanger

Reason for Submission:

New device.

Intended Use:

The CAPIOX Cardioplegia is cardiopulmonary bypass heat exchanger consisting of a heat exchange system used in extracorporeal circulation to warm or cool the blood or perfusion fluid flowing through the device for periods up to 6 hours.

Description

CAPIOX® Cardioplegia consists of heat exchanger pipes, filter screen, casing, ports, screw ring, O-ring and potting material. A thermistor probe is located on the blood outlet port which can be connected to temperature monitoring equipment.

The water ports can be connected to 1/2" inner diameter water tube or coupler (e.g. Hansen-quick connect).

This device provides high heat exchanger performance and air trapping function.

Blood (or perfusion fluid) flows through the heat exchanger pipes and water flows outside the pipes. Blood (or perfusion fluid) flow is counter-current to the water flow.

Substantial Equivalence

The CAPIOX® Cardioplegia is substantially equivalent to Sorin BCD Vanguard and the Sarns Conducer. The discussion and table below compare the CAPIOX® Cardioplegia with the Sorin BCD Vanguard cleared under K934847 and the Sarns Conducer (K923311).

1

Intended Use

All the devices are cardiopulmonary bypass heat exchangers consisting of a heat exchange system used in extracorporeal circulation to warm or cool the blood or perfusion fluid flowing through the device.

Design and Materials

All three devices are designed for blood/fluid flow into the lower portion of the device and exit at the top. The water flow enters the top and exits the bottom. The blood flow is counter current to the water flow.

The Sarns Conducer shares some generic blood contact materials with the CAPIOX Cardioplegia. The materials that are different are commonly present in devices used in the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit. (No information was available for the Sorin Vanguard materials).

The CAPIOX Cardioplegia is designed with straight stainless steel pipe blood conduits. The Sorin Vanguard uses pleated plate epoxy-coated stainless steel and the Sarns Conducer uses bellows.

Technology and Principles of Operation

All three devices receive blood/fluid which is pumped through tubing into the device. The water flow in counter current to the blood flow in all three devices. The water temperature is controlled separately from the cardioplegia device. The water either heats or cools the blood/fluid based upon the water temperature entering the device and the blood/fluid entering the device as shown in the following formula:

Heat exchanger performance factor: Tbo-Tbi
