This intrauterine pressure monitoring catheter (IUPC) is for use on patients requiring intrapartum intrauterine pressure monitoring. Additionally it may be used for amniofusion and of Amniotic fluid sampling
This disposable device is a catheter with a pressure transducer located at the distal tip to monitor the intrauterine pressure. The sensor/transducer is a thick film/ceramic strain gage connected via 4 leads to a connector in proximal end. This end connector interfaces with a reusable cable designed for the proper connection to the monitor in use. The IUPC has a separate fluid infusion and sampling lumen with three holes near the distal end that terminates at the proximal end with a luer fitting/cap. Incorporated in the connector housing at the proximal end is a switch for electronic zeroing of the transducer. This switch can also be used for periodic rezeroing of the system during use without the need for removal and replacement of the catheter. The distal end of the catheter holding the sensor is rounded and blunt while the catheter is soft, flexible polyurethane. The introducer, is designed to ease the insertion of the flexible catheter and is of a split sheath design for easy removal from the catheter after insertion. A Velcro attachment devise is supplied to attach the catheter firmly in place on the patients thigh to prevent inadvertent slippage or dislodgment during use.
The provided 510(k) submission for the "Easy Trans Tip" Intrauterine Pressure Transducer Catheter (IUPC) does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets specific performance metrics.
The document is a summary of safety and effectiveness, focused on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than providing detailed performance data from a specific study.
Therefore, I cannot populate the requested tables and sections. The submission primarily addresses:
- Device Information: Trade name, common name, classification, and product description.
- Equivalent Devices: Lists predicate devices with 510(k) numbers.
- Intended Use: Specifies the medical applications of the device.
- Comparison to Predicate Devices: Asserts substantial equivalence based on intended use, materials, dimensions, and mechanical properties.
To answer your request, the following information is not present in the provided text:
- Acceptance Criteria Table: No specific performance thresholds are mentioned.
- Reported Device Performance: No test results or performance metrics are provided.
- Sample Size for Test Set: No testing of the device performance is described.
- Data Provenance: Not applicable as no test data is presented.
- Number of Experts/Qualifications for Ground Truth: Not applicable.
- Adjudication Method: Not applicable.
- MRMC Comparative Effectiveness Study: No such study is mentioned or referenced.
- Standalone Performance Study: No specific performance study (beyond the claim of substantial equivalence) is documented.
- Type of Ground Truth Used: Not applicable.
- Sample Size for Training Set & How Ground Truth Established for Training Set: Not applicable, as this is related to studies validating specific performance metrics which are not present in this submission.
This 510(k) is a substantial equivalence submission, which means the manufacturer is asserting that their device is as safe and effective as existing legally marketed devices, primarily based on design and intended use similarities, rather than presenting a performance study with detailed acceptance criteria and results.

Product Description:
This 510(k) Notification is being submitted prior to the marketing introduction. This disposable device is a catheter with a pressure transducer located at the distal tip to monitor the intrauterine pressure. The sensor/transducer is a thick film/ceramic strain gage connected via 4 leads to a connector in proximal end. This end connector interfaces with a reusable cable designed for the proper connection to the monitor in use. The IUPC has a separate fluid infusion and

sampling lumen with three holes near the distal end that terminates at the proximal end with a luer fitting/cap.
Incorporated in the connector housing at the proximal end is a switch for electronic zeroing of the transducer. This switch can also be used for periodic rezeroing of the system during use without the need for removal and replacement of the catheter.
The distal end of the catheter holding the sensor is rounded and blunt while the catheter is soft, flexible polyurethane. This design minimizes the possibility of perforating the uterus while at the same time providing maximum comfort to the patient.
The introducer, is designed to ease the insertion of the flexible catheter and is of a split sheath design for easy removal from the catheter after insertion. A Velcro attachment devise is supplied to attach the catheter firmly in place on the patients thigh to prevent inadvertent slippage or dislodgment during use.
Intended Use:
The intrauterine pressure catheter is for use on patients requiring intrapartum intrauterine monitoring, amniofusion and amniotic fluid sampling.
Comparison to Predicate Device:
This catheter is substantially equivalent to numerous currently marketed IUP devices with regard to:
- a) intended use, b) materials, c) dimensions, d) mechanical properties. Predicated devices include those made by Scientific Device Manufacturer (SDM), Utah Medical, Hewlett Packard, Graphic Control. No significant changes or modifications are being made from those predicate devices. Therefore, this device is substantially equivalent in safety and effectiveness to these devices and should be allowed to market this device.

Mr. Carl Shuh 10915 Lurline Avenue Chatsworth, CA 91311-1638 Re: K982565 Easy Trans Tip (IUPC) Dated: August 31, 1998 Received: September 4, 1998 Regulatory Class: II 21 CFR 884.2700/Procode: 85 KXO
Dear Mr. Shuh:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the clevice referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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). 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 III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (OS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 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 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrb/dsmaldsmamain.html".
