Dear Scott Zawko:
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 (the 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 available 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.

Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).
Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality System (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, 21 CFR 820.30, Design controls; 21 CFR 820.90, Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action. Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).
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 (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reporting-combination-products); 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 Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.
All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ("UDI Rule"). The UDI Rule requires, among other things, that a device bear a unique device identifier (UDI) on its label and package (21 CFR 801.20(a)) unless an exception or alternative applies (21 CFR 801.20(b)) and that the dates on the device label be formatted in accordance with 21 CFR 801.18. The UDI Rule (21 CFR 830.300(a) and 830.320(b)) also requires that certain information be submitted to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) (21 CFR Part 830 Subpart E). For additional information on these requirements, please see the UDI System webpage at https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.

5 Device Description
The Small Volume 0.2mL Syringe is intended for manual, single use. It is a small volume 0.2 mL syringe. It is comprised of a PP barrel, ABS plunger, TPE plunger stopper, PP plunger shield and PP Luer protective cap. The device has a Luer lock connection type that enables connection to a hypodermic needle for liquid injection or withdrawal. The device has a plunger stopper to prevent any liquid residual from remaining in the syringe barrel, maximizing the efficiency of liquid usage. The feature is called Low Dead Space/Volume. The Luer protective cap serves to safeguard the small Luer connector from potential damage during transportation. Similarly, the plunger shield is utilized to ensure the small plunger remains undamaged during transportation. The Luer protective cap and the plunger shield are optional to be used. The device has been manufactured without any silicone oil.
The device has six models, each equipped with a 0.2 mL Luer lock syringe. Among these models, three include an additional feature for enhanced dosing technology (EDT), which comprises a colored reference line on the plunger surface to improve visibility. These include identifying markings to distinguish the EDT models from the regular 0.2 mL syringe.

Comment #1, Components and Materials: The proposed device features an additional Luer protective cap and a plunger shield that safeguard the luer connector and the plunger from potential damage during transportation. The Luer protective cap and plunger shield are discarded by the user prior to use and do not alter the mechanism of action or functionality of the proposed device in comparison to the predicate. Protection of the device through transportation has been demonstrated through packaging validation per ISO 11607. The proposed device utilizes different polymer materials for the components in comparison to the predicate device. The difference of materials has been addressed through demonstration of biocompatibility in accordance with the ISO 10993 standards.
Comment #2, Syringe Volume and Dead Space Specification: The proposed device features a lower syringe volume in comparison to the predicate device. In addition to the lower total syringe volume, a lower dead space volume is achieved. These differences have been assessed through syringe performance testing conducted in accordance with ISO 7886-1 that demonstrates that the proposed device meets all necessary requirements. The differences in syringe volume and dead volume specifications do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness when compared to the predicate device.
# 8 Non-clinical testing
## 8.1 Performance testing
The proposed device was tested in compliance with ISO 7886-1:2017 for evaluating the overall non-clinical performance.
