Image /page/4/Picture/0 description: The image contains the text "U Deliver Medical LLC". The words "U Deliver" and "Medical" are in a darker shade of blue, while "LLC" is in a lighter shade of blue. The text is arranged in two lines, with "U Deliver" on the first line and "Medical LLC" on the second line.
The U Deliver Bolink Small Cap Gravity Feeding Set with Cross Spike and ENFit Connector uses the free flow of gravity to dispense enteral feeding solutions from a distal reservoir (not supplied) which connects via a safety screw connection meeting the requirements of clauses 4 "General requirement" and 5 "Dimensional requirements for enteral feed reservoir connectors" of ISO/DIS 18250-3. 'Connectors for reservoir delivery systems for healthcare applications - Part 3: Enteral applications', to a PVC tube with external clamp, to a distal ENFit connector, meeting the requirements of ISO 80369-3, 'Small-bore connectors for liquids and gases in healthcare applications - Part 3: Connectors for enteral applications'.
The U Deliver Bolink Large Cap Gravity Feeding Set with ENFit Connector uses the free flow of gravity to dispense enteral feeding solutions from a distal reservoir (not supplied) which connects via a screw cap with a 40 mm thread, to a PVC tube with external clamp, to a distal ENFit connector, meeting the requirements of ISO 80369-3
Both sets are constructed from medical grade, biocompatible materials, and are supplied non-sterile for single patient use only.
# Indications for Use/Intended Use
The U Deliver Bolink ENFit Enteral Feeding Sets are intended to deliver liquid nutritional formulas or water to a patient's enteral access device (feeding tube).
# Principle of operation, mechanism of action, and interaction with the patient
The U Deliver Bolink ENFit Enteral Feeding Sets operate by providing a means of interconnecting enteral feeding solution reservoirs to a patient's enteral access device (feeding tube), so that patient enteral feeding can take place when 'new generation' enteral end fittings in accordance with ISO 80369-3 ('ENFit' connections) are present on the feeding tube. A clamp is provided on the tubes to allow feeding to be turned on or off. Although contact of components of the Enteral Feeding Sets may accidentally occur with patient's intact skin during use, the Enteral Feeding Sets have a central fluid path through which feeding solutions flow into the patient during the feeding process.
The U Deliver Bolink ENFit Enteral Feeding Sets are intended for prescription use only.
U Deliver Bolink ENFit Enteral Feeding Sets are not intended for a specific patient population: they can be used for adults, children, infants and neonates.
#### Device Specification
The ENFit connectors on the Enteral Feeding Sets are designed in compliance with FDA-recognized standard ISO 80369-3 "Small-bore connectors for liguids and gases in healthcare applications — Part 3: Connectors for enteral applications", and tested in accordance with FDA-recognized standard ISO 80369-20 "Small-bore connectors for liquids and gases in healthcare applications — Part 20: Common test methods".
The safety screw connector on the U Bolink ENFit Deliver Enteral Set with Safety Screw Connector is designed in accordance with ISO/DIS 18250-3.
The screw cap on the U Deliver Bolink Large Cap Gravity Feeding Set with ENFit Connector is designed with identical major dimensions to the identified predicate device, Metrixcare model 70040, Gravity Set with Feeding Cap (K132424).
#### Manufacture
The U Deliver Bolink ENFit Enteral Feeding Sets are assembled from components manufactured by subcontractors/suppliers to Cedic, the contract manufacturer, in environmentally controlled areas (clean room Class 8 according to ISO 14644), together with tubing and adhesive sourced 'off-the-shelf' by Cedic from other suppliers.

#### Predicate device
The Predicate Device selected for comparison with the U Deliver Bolink ENFit Enteral Feeding Sets:
| Predicate Device: | Metrixcare Enteral Feeding Sets |
|----------------------|----------------------------------------|
| Sponsor: | The Metrix Company, USA |
| 510(k) Number: | K132424 |
| Clearance Date: | 12 February 2014 |
| FDA Product Code: | KNT |
| Classification Name: | Gastrointestinal tubes and accessories |
| Regulation No: | 876.5980 |
The Subject Device and the Predicate Device have many identical properties and features. The only differences that exist are:
The components included within the enteral feeding sets are different. The predicate includes a sight chamber, while the subject device does not, and the predicate includes a roller clamp, whereas the subject device includes an on/off clamp. These differences do not have any significant effect on the safety or effectiveness of the subject device.
The predicate device that uses the large screw cap at the proximal end has a minimum lumen diameter of 3.4 mm, whereas the equivalent subject device has a minimum lumen diameter of 4.0 mm. This difference allows a faster feeding rate for the subject device, but does not have any significant effect on the safety or effectiveness of the subject device.
The predicate device has a vented feeding cap, whereas the subject device cap is non-vented. The venting on the predicate device allows use of the predicate feeding set with both flexible and rigid feeding containers, while the subject device feeding set can be used only with flexible feeding containers. The subject device labeling includes a warning not to use with rigid containers.
#### Conclusion:
Based on the information contained within this submission, it is concluded that the U Deliver Bolink ENFit Enteral Feeding Sets are substantially equivalent to the identified sets within the predicate device that are already in interstate commerce within the USA.
