Intended Use
The BARD® DigniShield™ Stool Management System is intended for fecal management by diverting and collecting liquid or semi-liquid stool to minimize skin contact in bedridden patients.
Device Story
The BARD® DigniShield™ Stool Management System is a single-use, non-sterile rectal catheter kit used for fecal management in bedridden adult patients. The system consists of a retention cuff, a trans-sphincteric zone, and a drainage tube, all constructed from Styrenic-based Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE). A collection bag, also made of TPE, interfaces with the catheter to collect fecal matter. The kit includes a syringe for inflating the retention cuff and lubricating jelly to facilitate insertion into the rectal vault. The device features self-sealing mechanisms on both the catheter and the collection bag that engage when disconnected to minimize leakage. The system is operated by healthcare providers in clinical settings to divert liquid or semi-liquid stool, thereby protecting the patient's skin from contact with fecal matter.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Functional and structural integrity testing (tensile strength, dimensional, cuff inflation) and biocompatibility testing in accordance with ISO 10993 were performed to demonstrate safety and substantial equivalence.
Indicated for fecal management in bedridden adult patients to divert and collect liquid or semi-liquid stool to minimize skin contact.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A gastrointestinal tube and accessories is a device that consists of flexible or semi-rigid tubing used for instilling fluids into, withdrawing fluids from, splinting, or suppressing bleeding of the alimentary tract. This device may incorporate an integral inflatable balloon for retention or hemostasis. This generic type of device includes the hemostatic bag, irrigation and aspiration catheter (gastric, colonic, etc.), rectal catheter, sterile infant gavage set, gastrointestinal string and tubes to locate internal bleeding, double lumen tube for intestinal decompression or intubation, feeding tube, gastroenterostomy tube, Levine tube, nasogastric tube, single lumen tube with mercury weight balloon for intestinal intubation or decompression, and gastro-urological irrigation tray (for gastrological use).
Special Controls
*Classification.* (1) Class II (special controls). The barium enema retention catheter and tip with or without a bag that is a gastrointestinal tube and accessory or a gastronomy tube holder accessory is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.(2) Class I (general controls) for the dissolvable nasogastric feed tube guide for the nasogastric tube. The class I device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 876.9.

Device Description: The BARD® DigniShield™ Stool Management System is sold as a tray (kit). The catheter portion of the system consists of a retention cuff, a trans-

sphincteric zone and a drainage tube which are constructed from a Styrenic-based Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) material. The system includes a collection bag which is also manufactured from the same TPE material. Additionally, the tray (kit) contains stand alone finished components, a syringe, lubricating jelly, and an odor eliminator. The collection bag interfaces with the catheter and allows for the collection of the fecal matter. The syringe is used to facilitate the inflation of the retention cuff portion of the catheter. The lubricating jelly is provided to minimize patient discomfort and irritation of the rectum while the device is being inserted into the rectal vault.
The catheter is connected to a collection bag. When the catheter is disconnected from the collection bag, the self-sealing mechanisms of both the catheter and collection bag are engaged. This minimizes the leakage of fecal matter from either the catheter or the collection bag.
The device is single-use, non-sterile, and has no components made of natural rubber latex.
Intended Use: The BARD® DigniShield™ Stool Management System is intended for fecal management by diverting and collecting liquid or semi-liquid stool to minimize skin contact in bedridden patients.
Adult Use Only
Technological Characteristics Summary: The subject BARD® DigniShield™ Stool Management System has the same intended use, similar indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as the predicate devices. The only technological difference between the subject device and the DigniCare™ predicate device is that the catheter and collection bag material composition of the subject device is TPE and the predicate device catheter is silicone with a low density polyethylene collection bag. The use of the TPE material does not raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness. Therefore, the BARD® DigniShield™ Stool Management System is substantially equivalent to currently marketed fecal management systems.
