Servator M SALF Solution is intended to be used for flushing and continuous hypothermic machine perfusion of kidneys at the time of their removal from the donor in preparation for storage, transportation, and eventual transplantation into a recipient.
Device Story
Servator M SALF Solution is a sterile, non-pyrogenic, non-toxic organ perfusion and preservation solution. It is used for in-vitro flushing and temporary continuous hypothermic machine perfusion of explanted kidneys. The solution is supplied in 1000ml PVC-free bags. It is intended for use by clinical professionals during the organ procurement and transplantation process. The solution maintains organ viability during storage and transport prior to transplantation. It does not require point-of-use filtration. The device is a chemical solution and does not involve electronic or mechanical operation.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing, including chemical composition analysis, biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993 series, and sterility validation per ISO 17665-1.
Indicated for flushing and continuous hypothermic machine perfusion of kidneys at the time of donor removal in preparation for storage, transport, and transplantation into a recipient.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An isolated kidney perfusion and transport system and accessories is a device that is used to support a donated or a cadaver kidney and to maintain the organ in a near-normal physiologic state until it is transplanted into a recipient patient. This generic type of device may include tubing, catheters, connectors, an ice storage or freezing container with or without bag or preservatives, pulsatile or nonpulsatile hypothermic isolated organ perfusion apparatus with or without oxygenator, and disposable perfusion set.

Dear Joyce St. Germain:
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
{1}------------------------------------------------
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 devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) 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).

| Sterile Water for injection | to 1000 ml Volume | N/A |
The above comparison shows the subject and predicate devices are identical in each attribute/characteristic.
NOTE. . . The composition list is identical for the subject and predicate device composition and therefore, the subject and predicate devices are identical in chemical composition.
The above comparison shows the subject and predicate devices are substantially equivalent in technology characteristics.
The Servator M SALF Solution has the same indication for use, intended use, design, materials, packaging and other technological characteristics to the predicate device.
## Non-Clinical Performance Data
The following performance data is provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination. All tests performed are included in this submission.
{9}------------------------------------------------
Biocompatibility ... is required for this device. The tests were all performed according to the ISO 10993 series that are listed in the Table of Comparison above. The subject device passed all biocompatibility test standards.
Sterilization and Shelf Life . . . is required for the subject device. The Validation of Sterility was performed, and the results passed according to ISO 17655-1. Steam sterilization and storage conditions are the subject and predicate device. Shelf life for the subject is 24 months and the predicate device is 12 months.
Electrical Safety and EMC . . . testing was not applicable for this device.
Software ... was not applicable for this device.
Performance Testing ... was completed as a direct comparison between the subject and predicate device. The chemical comparisons and leachables performance testing demonstrated the substantial equivalence of this device to the predicate.
## Conclusion
The subject and predicate devices have the same indications for use and the same intended use.
Both devices are substantially equivalent in design, materials, packaging and other technological characteristics and performance (since they have, in fact, the same chemical composition).
The Servator M SALF Solution does not raise any questions regarding safety and effectiveness and is equivalent to the predicate device. The non-clinical data supports and demonstrates the safety of the device.
The conclusion is that Servator M SALF Solution warrants a finding of substantial equivalence to the legally marketed PERF-GENQ® Pulsatile Perfusion Solution, and therefore, should have clearance for premarket activities in the United States.
