Promisemed Insulin Pen Needle is intended for use with pen injector device for subcutaneous injection of insulin. It is sterile and for single use only. It is suitable for all age groups including neonate, infant, children and adult, and can be used by the patient at home or healthcare professionals at medical/health care centers.
Device Story
Promisemed Insulin Pen Needle is a sterile, single-use, hypodermic needle designed for subcutaneous insulin delivery via pen injectors. The device consists of a needle tube, hub, container, shield, UV glue, and silicone lubricant. Operation is manual: the user attaches the needle to a pen injector and inserts it into the skin. The silicone lubricant facilitates needle insertion and rubber septum penetration. The device is intended for use by patients at home or by healthcare professionals in clinical settings. It is available in various gauge (29G-34G) and length (3.5mm-12mm) configurations. The device benefits patients by providing a sterile, disposable means for insulin administration.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data. Performance verified via ISO 9626, ISO 11608-2, and ISO 7864 testing. Biocompatibility testing (ISO 10993 series) confirmed no cytotoxicity, irritation, sensitization, or systemic toxicity. Hemolysis testing (ASTM F756-13) and particulate matter testing (USP <788>) met acceptance criteria. Package integrity and shelf-life (ASTM F1980-16) were validated.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: X5CrNi18-10 stainless steel (tube), Polypropylene (hub/container), Polyethylene (shield). Lubricant: Silicone oil. Joint: UV glue. Sterilization: Ethylene Oxide (EO) to SAL 10^-6. Standards: ISO 7864, ISO 9626, ISO 11608-2, ISO 10993, ASTM F756-13, ASTM F88/F88-15, ASTM F1929-15, ASTM F1980-16. Dimensions: 29G-34G; 3.5mm-12mm lengths.
Indications for Use
Indicated for subcutaneous insulin injection via pen injector. Suitable for all age groups (neonates, infants, children, adults). For use by patients at home or healthcare professionals in clinical settings.
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.

### Discussion:
The Promisemed Insulin Pen Needle has the same intended use and technological characteristics as the predicate device. The basic technological and operating principles are the same for both devices. Both the subject and predicate devices are disposable, sterile, single patient use devices.
The difference in gauge size and material of needle shield does not affect the substantially equivalence on the safety and effectiveness. The Needle length of 3.5mm with tightened tolerance limits (±0.4mm), is within the same needle length range as the predicate 4mm (±1.20 mm), both meet the requirement of ISO 11608-2 to a 95%/95% C/R and substantially equivalent. The subject device has raised no different questions of safety and effectiveness.
