Intended Use
The 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP, BD PosiFlush™ SF Syringes are intended to be used only for the flushing of indwelling vascular access devices.
Device Story
The 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP, BD PosiFlush™ SF Syringe is a sterile, single-use, three-piece syringe prefilled with 0.9% sodium chloride injection, USP. It features a 6% (luer) connector and is sealed with a tip cap. The device is used in clinical settings to flush indwelling vascular access devices to maintain patency. It is provided externally sterile for use on a sterile field. The device functions as a manual delivery system for the saline solution. The primary modification from the predicate is a change in primary packaging materials from Tyvek to medical-grade paper and multi-layer film.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by bench testing, including functional testing (container closure, break loose/out force, sustaining force, pump force, dead space, reflux), USP testing for saline solution (endotoxin, particulates, assay, heavy metals, pH), and biocompatibility testing (ISO 10993 series).
Technological Characteristics
Three-piece, sterile, single-use syringe with 6% (luer) connector. Prefilled with 0.9% sodium chloride injection, USP. Sterilized via moist heat. Primary packaging: medical grade paper and multi-layer film. Complies with ISO 11607 for packaging and various USP standards for saline solution.
Indications for Use
Indicated for flushing indwelling vascular access devices.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An intravascular catheter is a device that consists of a slender tube and any necessary connecting fittings and that is inserted into the patient's vascular system for short term use (less than 30 days) to sample blood, monitor blood pressure, or administer fluids intravenously. The device may be constructed of metal, rubber, plastic, or a combination of these materials.

Dear Mr. Blewitt:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA), 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical devicerelated adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
