Device consists of two rectangular polymeric sides connected by a hinge. Clinician positions protector over port access wings; activates by snapping hinged sides closed to enclose and shield needle. Unlike predicate device, which requires needle removal from patient before insertion into safety device, this protector is folded over and closed around needle during removal from patient. Output is a shielded needle tip, reducing risk of accidental needlestick injuries to healthcare providers. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. A successful simulated use study was conducted to determine the device's acceptability for minimizing accidental needlestick injuries. ## Technological Characteristics Non-sterile, single-use accessory device; polymeric material construction; hinged, two-sided rectangular form factor; mechanical activation (manual snapping). ## Regulatory Identification A subcutaneous, implanted, intravascular infusion port and catheter is a device that consists of a subcutaneous, implanted reservoir that connects to a long-term intravascular catheter. The device allows for repeated access to the vascular system for the infusion of fluids and medications and the sampling of blood. The device consists of a portal body with a resealable septum and outlet made of metal, plastic, or combination of these materials and a long-term intravascular catheter is either preattached to the port or attached to the port at the time of device placement. The device is available in various profiles and sizes and can be of a single or multiple lumen design. ## Special Controls *Classification.* Class II (special controls) Guidance Document: “Guidance on 510(k) Submissions for Implanted Infusion Ports,” FDA October 1990. ## Predicate Devices - Portex Point-Lok Sharps Safety Device ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

Name of Device: Antineedle Stick Protector for Use with Port Access Infusion Sets Common Name: Needle stick protector - 3. Predicate Device: Portex Point-Lok Sharps Safety Device - 4. Description of the Device: The Antineedle Stick Protector is a non-sterile, single use, active accessory device manufactured from polymeric material. The protector has two rectangular sides connected by a hinge. It is positioned over the port access wings, and is activated by snapping closed the hinged sides that will enclose and shield the port access infusion set needle within the protector. - 5. Intended Use: The Antineedle Stick Protector is a non-sterile, single use accessory device intended to minimize accidental needle stick injuries when used an an active safety device to shield port access needles. - 6. Technological Characteristics: The Antineedle Stick Protector is shaped differently than the predicate device and is activated in a different manner to achieve the same result. That is, the Antineedle Stick Protector is folded over and closed around the entire needle as it is removed from the patient. Use of the predicate device requires that the needle first be removed from the patient, and then the tip of the needle subsequently will be pushed into the device. In both devices, the needle tip is protected inside the device after use. - 7. Performance Data: Kawasumi Laboratories has conducted a successful simulated use study to determine the acceptability of this device for use to minimize accidental needlestick injuries. Kawasumi Laboratories believes the successful simulated use study shows the device is suitable for its intended use and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. - 8. Conclusions: The device is as safe as the predicate device and performs as well as the predicate device. {1}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/1/Picture/1 description: The image is a black and white logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.

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 II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls.
