Intended Use
BD Nexiva Closed IV Catheter System - Single Port with MaxZero Needleless Connector devices are intended to be inserted into a patient's vascular system for short term use to sample blood pressure, or administer fluids. These catheters may be used for any patient population with consideration given to adequacy of vascular anatomy, procedure being performed, fluids being infused, and duration of therapy. The 22-18 GA (0.9-1.3 mm) devices are suitable for use with power injectors set to a maximum pressure of 300 psi (2068 kPa) when access ports not suitable for use with power injectors are removed.
Device Story
Over-the-needle intravascular catheter system; includes radiopaque polyurethane catheter, needle, needle shield, septum, stabilization platform, extension tubing, clamp, Luer adapter, vent plug, and MaxZero needleless connector. Closed system design contains blood during insertion; septum wipes blood from needle surface upon withdrawal; passive needle tip protection reduces needlestick risk. Features BD Instaflash technology for immediate blood return visualization. Used by clinicians in clinical settings for vascular access. MaxZero connector provides zero-reflux valve mechanism to prevent fluid displacement upon disconnection. Device configuration facilitates fluid administration or blood sampling; benefits include reduced blood exposure and accidental injury risk.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance testing included insertion force, droplet size, high back pressure, droplet separation, flow rate, plug retention, packaging integrity, and device damage. Biocompatibility testing for the EtO-sterilized MaxZero connector included cytotoxicity, sensitization, intracutaneous reactivity, systemic toxicity, haemocompatibility, and pyrogenicity (LAL and material-mediated). All tests met predetermined acceptance criteria.
Indicated for any patient population requiring short-term vascular access for blood pressure sampling or fluid administration, contingent upon vascular anatomy, procedure, fluid type, and therapy duration.
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.

| Reason for<br>Submission | | The reason for this submission is the addition of a MaxZero Needleless Connector<br>to the BD Nexiva Closed IV Catheter System - Single Port unit package. | |
| Device<br>Description | BD Nexiva Closed IV Catheter System - Single Port with MaxZero Needleless<br>Connector devices are over-the-needle, intravascular catheters. These devices<br>have a radiopaque BD Vialon catheter, needle, needle shield, septum, stabilization<br>platform, integrated extension tubing, clamp, Luer adapter, and vent plug. The<br>needle and catheter are protected by a needle cover. A MaxZero device with<br>protective cover is provided in the unit package. | | |
| | The closed system is designed to keep blood contained within the device<br>throughout the insertion process. The septum is designed to wipe visible blood<br>from the needle surface as the needle is withdrawn from the catheter, further<br>reducing the risk of blood exposure. The needle tip is passively protected when<br>the needle is removed, reducing the risk of accidental needlestick injury. | | |
| | These devices have BD Instaflash needle technology, allowing for immediate<br>visualization of blood return along the catheter. Continuous blood return is seen in<br>the extension tubing. The vent plug prevents blood leakage from the extension<br>tubing during insertion. Both the stabilization platform and Luer connector are color<br>coded to indicate catheter gauge size (24 GA (0.7 mm)=Yellow, 22 GA (0.9<br>mm)=Blue, 20 GA (1.1 mm)=Pink, 18 GA (1.3 mm)=Green). | | |
| Indications for<br>Use<br>(21 CFR<br>§807.92(a)(5)) | The subject device Indications for Use is the same as the predicate BD Nexiva<br>Closed IV Catheter System - Single Port device (K16177), with the exception of<br>the device trade name. The subject device Indications for Use does not include the<br>predicate MaxZero Needleless Connector Indications for Use (K132413) since the<br>MaxZero Needleless Connector is a component of the primary BD Nexiva Closed<br>IV Catheter System - Single Port device. The addition of the MaxZero Needleless<br>Connector to the BD Nexiva Closed IV Catheter System unit package does not<br>impact the intended use of the MaxZero Needleless Connector compared to the<br>predicate device (K132413). As such, the differences between the subject and<br>predicate device Indications for Use do not change the intended use of the<br>predicate devices or raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. | | |
