Intended Use
The Baxa Corporation MicroFuse™Dual Rate Infuser is intended to be used for the intermittent administration of I.V. medication.
Device Description
The Baxa Corporation MicroFuse Dual Rate Infuser, is a battery powered, portable device that automates the injection of the contents of a syringe into a patient. Each MicroFuse has two pre-determined rates that are be preset at the manufacturing facility. These preset rates can not be modified by the user or patient. The MicroFuse is used with a sterile administration set for injecting the medication into a patient. It depresses the plunger of the syringe at a controlled, pre determined rate, delivering the dose in the syringe over an extended period of time. The MicroFuse is offered in a standard dual rate model. Some custom dual rate models with the only difference being the pre-determined infusion rates are also offered. The MicroFuse System consists of the MicroFuse Dual Rate Infuser and a syringe and administration set. Both syringe and administration sets are sterile and disposable. Since only the accessory syringes and administration sets are in the fluid path, the MicroFuse has no patient contact materials. This also means the device is not provided sterile, nor is it sterilized in the field. The accessories have been previously cleared with the predicate device in K933506.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description focuses on pre-determined, fixed infusion rates and mechanical automation, with no mention of adaptive learning, data analysis for decision-making, or any terms associated with AI/ML.

Yes
The device is used for the "intermittent administration of I.V. medication," implying it's used to deliver substances that treat or prevent disease, which is the function of a therapeutic device.

No

The device is described as an "Infuser" intended for "intermittent administration of I.V. medication," which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one. It automates the injection of contents from a syringe into a patient, implying drug delivery rather than disease detection or analysis.

No

The device description clearly states it is a battery-powered, portable device that automates injection and depresses the plunger of a syringe, indicating it is a hardware device with mechanical components.

Based on the provided information, the Baxa Corporation MicroFuse™ Dual Rate Infuser is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the "intermittent administration of I.V. medication." This describes a device used to deliver substances into a patient's body, not to test samples from a patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description clearly states it "automates the injection of the contents of a syringe into a patient." This is a drug delivery device.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring analytes
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening

The device's function is purely mechanical and related to controlled delivery of medication.

(a)
Identification. An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.(b)
