Device Story
B Dispensing Line is a sterile, single-use disposable IV fluid transfer set designed for use with the APOTECAbag automated pharmacy compounding system. The device consists of PVC tubing with specific terminal connectors (vented spikes, microspikes, or needles) tailored to the variant (Recon, Filling, or Double Filling). It operates via the APOTECAbag's peristaltic pump, which drives fluid transfer between containers (e.g., IV bags, vials, bottles) to facilitate drug reconstitution or medication preparation. The device is used by trained healthcare personnel in hospital pharmacies to automate compounding workflows. By automating the transfer process, the device aims to improve dosage accuracy and repeatability compared to manual methods. It is not intended for chemotherapy or oncology drug compounding.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Performance verified via dose accuracy, repeatability, leakage, tensile stress, and transparency tests per ISO 8536-9. Biocompatibility confirmed via cytotoxicity, systemic toxicity, sensitization, hemolysis, pyrogen, and bacterial endotoxin testing per ISO 10993 and USP standards. Sterilization validated per ISO 11135.
Technological Characteristics
Disposable IV fluid transfer set; PVC tubing; ABS connectors; peristaltic pump interface; EO sterilization. Variants include vented spikes, microspikes, and needles. Complies with ISO 8536-9 (leakage, tensile, transparency), ISO 10993 (biocompatibility), and ISO 11135 (sterilization).
Indications for Use
Indicated for pharmacy compounding of non-chemotherapy/non-oncology drugs, including solvent transfer, drug reconstitution, and liquid drug transfer between containers (vials, bags, bottles) using the APOTECAbag automated system. Intended for use by trained healthcare personnel in hospital pharmacy environments.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An intravascular administration set is a device used to administer fluids from a container to a patient's vascular system through a needle or catheter inserted into a vein. The device may include the needle or catheter, tubing, a flow regulator, a drip chamber, an infusion line filter, an I.V. set stopcock, fluid delivery tubing, connectors between parts of the set, a side tube with a cap to serve as an injection site, and a hollow spike to penetrate and connect the tubing to an I.V. bag or other infusion fluid container.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for pharmacy compounding systems within this classification is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Pharmacy Compounding Systems; Final Guidance for Industry and FDA Reviewers.” Pharmacy compounding systems classified within the intravascular administration set are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of this part and subject to the limitations in § 880.9.

Dear Michele Mengoni:
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.

### Differences discussion
B Dispensing Line and KIRO set have the same purpose, both are used for the compounding of drugs and reconstitution of vials containing lyophilized drugs by means of peristaltic pumps. The liquid transfer method is therefore the same. Reference and subject device have product code. The use environment and target users are the same except the systems in which they have to be used. To address this difference, performance tests of B Dispensing Line with APOTECAbag system have been performed.
KIRO Set and B Dispensing Line are both for single use and provided sterile. Both devices are provided of vented spikes and mini-spikes as input line connector

Image /page/8/Picture/0 description: The image shows the word "LOCCIONI" in a bold, sans-serif font. The letters are all capitalized and are a dark red color. The background is white, which makes the text stand out.
The sterilization method is different, B Dispensing Line is provided sterile by means of EO sterilization cycle, while KIRO Set is sterilized using gamma radiations. A complete validation of sterilization method of B Dispensing Line has been performed according to standard ISO 11135.
The tube material is different, B Dispensing Line is made of PVC, while KIRO Set is made of PVC and silicone. To address this difference a drug compatibility analysis has been performed and a biocompatibility test campaign according to ISO 10993 has been performed.
The connector material (spikes, mini-spikes and luer connection) is the same.
As input connector B Double Filling Line with vial needle and a spike, KIRO Set is provided with spike and with male luer connectors. The material of connector in both devices is the same. As output line connector, KIRO Set is provided of male luer connector and B Dispensing Line is provided of a mini-spike (only B Recon Line) or needle (all the other models). The material of connector in both devices is the same. To address the difference of the output line connector performance tests according to ISO 8536-9 have been performed.
