More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a physical blood filter and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

No.
The device is described as a filter for removing particulate and gaseous microemboli during cardiopulmonary bypass procedures, which is a supportive function during a medical procedure, not a device that directly treats a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device is an arterial filter used during cardiopulmonary bypass procedures to remove particulate and gaseous microemboli. Its function is to filter and remove substances from the blood, not to diagnose a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "single use device designed to filter microemboli from the blood," indicating a physical hardware component. The performance studies also focus on physical and performance characteristics of a filter.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Arterial Filter described is a mechanical device used during a medical procedure (cardiopulmonary bypass surgery) to physically remove particles and air from blood circulating outside the body. It does not analyze a sample to provide diagnostic information.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states its purpose is for "removal of particulate and gaseous microemboli" during a surgical procedure, not for diagnosing a condition.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Arterial Filter is a medical device used in a surgical setting, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 870.4260 Cardiopulmonary bypass arterial line blood filter.

(a)
Identification. A cardiopulmonary bypass arterial line blood filter is a device used as part of a gas exchange (oxygenator) system to filter nonbiologic particles and emboli (blood clots or pieces of foreign material flowing in the bloodstream which will obstruct circulation by blocking a vessel) out of the blood. It is used in the arterial return line.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Guidance for Cardiopulmonary Bypass Arterial Line Blood Filter 510(k) Submissions.”

STATEMENT OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS COMPARISON

Information regarding technological characteristics comparison is provided in the following section. "Determination of Substantial Equivalence".

DETERMINATION OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

This "SPECIAL 510(k)" is being submitted for a modification to the AFFINITY® Arterial Blood Filter. The modification is to change only the filter pore size and market both a 38 u and 20 u Arterial Blood Filter.

The AFFINITY® 20 u Arterial Blood Filter is being "compared to the following Marketed Devices":

  • · AFFINITY® 38 µ Arterial Blood Filter (K952532)
  • INTERSEPT® 20 µ Arterial Blood Filter (K926413) .

The AFFINITY® 20 u Arterial Blood Filter has the "same indications statement and intended uses" as the:

  • AFFINITY® 38 µ Arterial Blood Filter (K952532) .
  • INTERSEPT® 20 µ Arterial Blood Filter (K926413) .

The AFFINITY® 20 u Arterial Blood Filter has "new technological characteristics (e.g., design)" from the AFFINITY" 38 u Arterial Blood Filter. The new technological characteristic is solely the pore size of the micron filter:

  • . 20 μ
    The technological characteristic of the 20 u screen is common to other arterial blood filters currently in commercial distribution as follows:

  • · INTERSEPT® 20 µ Arterial Blood Filter (K926413)
    This technological characteristic "could affect the safety and effectiveness of the device". However, these "new technological characteristics do not raise new types of safety or effectiveness questions". In addition, "there are accepted scientific methods which exist for assessing effects of these new technological characteristics.

"Performance data to assess the effects of these new technological characteristics" has been performed. These "performance data demonstrate" that the AFFINITY® 20 u Arterial Blood Filter is substantially equivalent to other marketed arterial filters.
