Intended Use
The Becton Dickinson SafetyGlide™ Syringes are used for a variety of injections and aspirations of fluid from vials, ampules and parts of the body below the surface of the skin. The insulin syringe has scale lines in insulin units and is typically used for insulin injections. The allergy syringes come in test and treatment versions. The allergy test syringe has an intra-dermal bevel for intradermal injections. The allergy treatment syringe has a regular bevel which is typically used for subcutaneous injections. The tuberculin syringe has a regular bevel which can be used for any of the 3 types of common injections (intradermal, intra-muscular or subcutaneous). The SafetyGlide™ Syringe contains a mechanism that covers the needle point after use. In the activated position the needle cover guards against accidental needle sticks during normal handling and disposal of the used needle/syringe combination.
Device Description
Single-use syringe with needle protection system. Syringes sizes: .3, .5, & 1 ml. Function: Syringes are used for aspiration/injection of fluids. The device contains a mechanism that covers the needle point after use. In the activated position the needle cover guards against accidental needle sticks during normal handling and disposal of the used need as syringe combination.

No
The document describes a mechanical syringe with a safety feature and does not mention any AI or ML components.

No.
The device is a syringe used for fluid injection and aspiration, with a safety mechanism to prevent needle sticks; it does not directly treat a disease or condition.

No

The device is described as a syringe used for injections and aspirations of fluid, and a needle protection system. There is no mention of it being used to diagnose conditions or diseases.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "Single-use syringe with needle protection system," which is a physical hardware device. The summary describes the function of the syringe and its needle cover mechanism, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states the device is a syringe used for "injections and aspirations of fluid from vials, ampules and parts of the body below the surface of the skin." This involves introducing or removing substances from the body, not analyzing specimens outside the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use focuses on delivering or withdrawing fluids directly to or from a patient.

The device is a medical device, specifically a syringe with a safety feature, but it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Summary of Performance Studies

The sharps injury prevention feature was compared to the predicate devices using the following criteria: activation forces, security of assembly, safety barrier resistance, impact resistance. The Becton Dickinson SafetyGlide™ Syringe performed in a similar manner to the predicate device.

4. Product Description/Function:

4.1 Description: Single-use syringe with needle protection system. Syringes sizes: .3, .5, & 1 ml.

4.2 Function: Syringes are used for aspiration/injection of fluids. The device contains a mechanism that covers the needle point after use. In the activated position the needle cover guards against accidental needle sticks during normal handling and disposal of the used need as syringe combination.

5. Comparison of Modified & Predicate Devices:

5.1 Descriptive Comparison to a Legally Marketed Device The Safet™Glide™ Syringe can be used in the same fashion as standard insulin / allergy / tuberculin syringes. When the SafetyGlide™ Syringe is in the "ready-to-use" position it provides the same usable needle length as standard insulin / allergy / tuberculin syringes.

Comparison has been made to the standard insulin / allergy / tuberculin syringes. The product is intended to be used for the same general injection and aspiration of fluids. The sharps injury prevention feature of the syringe contains a mechanism that covers the needlepoim after use. In the activated position the spool of the pushrod guards against accidental needle sticks during normal handling and disposal of the used syringe.

5.2 Material Changes: The only significant change in the materials is the use of a more rigid plast x resin in the sharps injury prevention feature of the SafetyGlide™ Syringe.

5.3 Manufacturing Process Changes: The manufacturing processes are being modified for the addition of the sharps injury prevention feature.

5.4 Manufacturing Site Changes: No manufacturing site changes are being made.

5.5 Packaging Component Changes: The package design is being modified to accept the larger size of the sharps injury prevention feature.

6. Equivalence:

The sharps injury prevention feature was compared to the predicate devices using the following criteria: activation forces, security of assembly, safety barrier resistance, impact resistance. The Becton Dickinson SafetyGlide™ Syringe performed in a similar manner to the predicate device.
