Attributes

Intended Use
Intended specifically for use in patients with acute or chronic renal failure when conservative therapy is judged to be inadequate. It may also be indicated in the treatment of patients intoxicated with poisons or drugs.
Device Story
Polysynthane (PSN) Hemodialyzer (Models PSN-120, PSN-140) is a hollow fiber dialyzer used for extracorporeal blood treatment. It functions by facilitating solute exchange between blood and dialysate across a semipermeable fiber bundle membrane. Used in clinical settings for patients with renal failure or intoxication. The device removes metabolic waste products and toxins from the blood. Healthcare providers operate the hemodialysis system to manage patient fluid and electrolyte balance. The device is a disposable component of a larger hemodialysis system.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing included biocompatibility evaluation of the fiber bundle per ISO 10993-1 and other components per USP XXI Class VI. Sterilization validation performed per AAMI ST-27 (Ethylene Oxide) to ensure SAL of 1x10^-6. Pyrogen testing conducted per USP Supplement 2, Chapter 161. Particulate matter compared to USP 23 limits for Large Volume Injections. Functional testing performed for blood side integrity and manufacturing specifications.
Technological Characteristics
Hollow fiber dialyzer; fiber bundle membrane; Ethylene Oxide (EO) sterilization; meets USP XXI Class VI and ISO 10993-1 biocompatibility standards; meets USP 23 limits for particulates; blood side integrity testing.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with acute or chronic renal failure requiring hemodialysis when conservative therapy is inadequate, and for treatment of patients intoxicated with poisons or drugs.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A hemodialysis system and accessories is a device that is used as an artificial kidney system for the treatment of patients with renal failure or toxemic conditions and that consists of an extracorporeal blood system, a conventional dialyzer, a dialysate delivery system, and accessories. Blood from a patient flows through the tubing of the extracorporeal blood system and accessories to the blood compartment of the dialyzer, then returns through further tubing of the extracorporeal blood system to the patient. The dialyzer has two compartments that are separated by a semipermeable membrane. While the blood is in the blood compartment, undesirable substances in the blood pass through the semipermeable membrane into the dialysate in the dialysate compartment. The dialysate delivery system controls and monitors the dialysate circulating through the dialysate compartment of the dialyzer.(1) The extracorporeal blood system and accessories consists of tubing, pumps, pressure monitors, air foam or bubble detectors, and alarms to keep blood moving safely from the blood access device and accessories for hemodialysis (§ 876.5540) to the blood compartment of the dialyzer and back to the patient. (2) The conventional dialyzer allows a transfer of water and solutes between the blood and the dialysate through the semipermeable membrane. The semipermeable membrane of the conventional dialyzer has a sufficiently low permeability to water that an ultrafiltration controller is not required to prevent excessive loss of water from the patient's blood. This conventional dialyzer does not include hemodialyzers with the disposable inserts (Kiil type) (§ 876.5830) or dialyzers of high permeability (§ 876.5860). (3) The dialysate delivery system consists of mechanisms that monitor and control the temperature, conductivity, flow rate, and pressure of the dialysate and circulates dialysate through the dialysate compartment of the dialyzer. The dialysate delivery system includes the dialysate concentrate for hemodialysis (liquid or powder) and alarms to indicate abnormal dialysate conditions. This dialysate delivery system does not include the sorbent regenerated dialysate delivery system for hemodialysis (§ 876.5600), the dialysate delivery system of the peritoneal dialysis system and accessories (§ 876.5630), or the controlled dialysate delivery system of the high permeability hemodialysis system § 876.5860). (4) Remote accessories to the hemodialysis system include the unpowered dialysis chair without a scale, the powered dialysis chair without a scale, the dialyzer holder set, dialysis tie gun and ties, and hemodialysis start/stop tray.

| Common name: | Hemodialyzer |
| Classification name: | Hemodialysis System and Accessories per 21 CFR 876.5820 |
| Equivalent predicate: | CF Capillary Flow Dialyzers, CA Cellulose Acetate Hollow Fiber Dialyzers, HT Hollow Fiber Dialyzers |
| Device Description: | Model PSN-120 PSN Hemodialyzer
Model PSN-140 PSN Hemodialyzer |
| Intended Use: | Intended specifically for use in patients with acute or chronic renal failure when conservative therapy is judged to be inadequate. It may also be indicated in the treatment of patients intoxicated with poisons or drugs. |
| Summary of the technological predicate device: | The general function and materials of the subject PSN Hemodialyzers are the same as the Baxter predicate Dialyzers. Differences in the subject PSN Hemodialyzers to the predicate Baxter Dialyzers consist of a change in the fiber bundle material and a slight change in clearance values for urea, creatinine and Vitamin B 12. |
| Clinical data: | N/A |
| Conclusions drawn from tests: | Components of the subject PSN Hemodialyzers, with the exception of the fiber bundle, have previously met the biological requirements of the guidelines for safety screening of materials for USP XXI Class VI materials. The fiber bundle was tested as suggested by to ISO 10993-1: Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices - Part 1. guidelines. The validation of the sterilization cycle for the PSN Hemodialyzer is based upon the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) Guideline (ST-27-Industrial Ethylene Oxide (EO) Sterilization of Medical Devices) to ensure a sterility assurance level (SAL) of $1 \times 10^{-6}$. Prior to release, sterilant residues of EO, ECH and EG are consistent with the proposed limits for the “blood ex vivo” device category as published in the June 23, 1978 Federal Register. |
