Intended Use
The NIO is intended to provide intraosseous access in the proximal tibia, as an alternative to IV access during emergencies. The device is for use in adult patients only. The NIO is indicated for use in providing intraosseous access as an alternative to IV access during emergencies. Humeral head IO access is indicated when rapid fluid or pharmacological resuscitation is required, and intravenous access is not possible. The device is for use in adult patients only.
Device Story
Adult Intraosseous (IO) infusion device; provides emergency vascular access via proximal tibia or humeral head. Device resembles syringe; contains trocar needle, spring, piston, and housing. Operation: user presses device against bone and pulls trigger; spring-loaded mechanism drives needle to 25mm depth into bone marrow cavity. Used in hospital, clinic, or emergency care settings by healthcare providers. Output: established IO access point with standard Luer Lock hub for connection to infusion systems. Benefits: enables rapid fluid or drug delivery when IV access is impossible.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data submitted. Substantial equivalence determined via bench-level comparison of design and technological characteristics.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Stainless steel (trocar needle/cannula), nickel-plated Brass 360 (hub), Makrolon® Rx2530 Polycarbonate (skin-contact parts). Mechanism: Spring-actuated needle insertion to 25±3 mm depth. Interface: Standard Luer Lock. Standards: ISO 594 (conical fittings), ISO 9626 (stainless steel tubing), ISO 7864 (sterile hypodermic needles). Safety: Rotational safety latch and dual-action trigger (simultaneous pressure and trigger pull).
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult patients requiring intraosseous access in the proximal tibia or humeral head as an alternative to IV access during emergencies, specifically when rapid fluid or pharmacological resuscitation is required and IV access is not possible.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A hypodermic single lumen needle is a device intended to inject fluids into, or withdraw fluids from, parts of the body below the surface of the skin. The device consists of a metal tube that is sharpened at one end and at the other end joined to a female connector (hub) designed to mate with a male connector (nozzle) of a piston syringe or an intravascular administration set.

Dear Linda Taylor :
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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 of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for
{1}------------------------------------------------
devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/CombinationProducts/GuidanceRegulatoryInformation/ucm597488.htm); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm.
For comprehensive regulatory information about medical devices and radiation-emitting products, including information about labeling regulations, please see Device Advice (https://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/) and CDRH Learn (http://www.fda.gov/Training/CDRHLearn). Additionally, you may contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education (DICE) to ask a question about a specific regulatory topic.
