Indications for Use

The Connecta® Plus 1 and Connecta® Plus 3 2-way and 3-way Stopcocks are intended to be used as control valves in I.V. therapy and hemodynamic pressure monitoring. They are added to IV cannula or extension tubing sets for simultaneous or alternate administration of IV drugs, fluids, and blood, or for blood sampling. They can also be used in areas in which solution flow requires control. Alternatively, they are used for hemodynamic monitoring via an arterial cannula and a central venous catheter.

Device Story

Connecta® Plus 1 and Plus 3 are disposable 2-way and 3-way stopcocks used as control valves in IV therapy and hemodynamic monitoring. The device consists of a smoke-colored housing with two female and one male Luer fitting, a color-coded rotating tap with position indicators, and a rotating collar nut. It is integrated into IV cannula or extension tubing sets. The device allows clinicians to manage simultaneous or alternate administration of fluids, drugs, and blood, or perform blood sampling. The design features an inner conic front in the A-port to reduce air bubble entrapment and turbulence, a larger lumen tap to increase flow rate, and improved priming and dynamic response. Position indicators assist the user in confirming the open/closed state. The device is intended for single-patient use and is irradiation sterilized.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Testing assessed the effects of design changes, including flow rate, priming, dynamic response, and material resistance to cracking. All results were satisfactory.

Technological Characteristics

Disposable stopcock; materials: polycarbonate and polyethylene; irradiation sterilized; pyrogen-free. Features: 2-way or 3-way configuration, rotating tap with 8-position indicators, male Luer with rotating collar nut, female Luer fittings with plugs. Designed for IV therapy and hemodynamic monitoring.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use as control valves in IV therapy and hemodynamic pressure monitoring for patients requiring IV drug, fluid, or blood administration, blood sampling, or solution flow control via IV cannula or extension tubing sets, including arterial and central venous catheters.

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.

## 3. Substantial Equivalence:

The Connecta® Plus 1 and Plus 3 2-way and 3-way Stopcocks are substantially equivalent to our own Connecta® TH (through hole) 2-way and 3-way Infusion/Pressure Monitoring Stopcocks.

## 4. Device Description:

The disposable Connecta® Plus 1 and Plus 3 2-way and 3-way Stopcocks consist of:

- · a smoke colored housing with three connectors: two female Luer fittings, and one male Luer fitting;
- · a color coded (white, blue, or red) rotating tap with eight (8) closed and open position indicators (snap on-off);

{1}------------------------------------------------

- · a smoke colored collar nut assembled to the male Luer fitting in the housing. The rotating nut is used to secure the stopcock's connection with the product it is connected with.
- · two white plugs attached to the two female Luer fittings in the housing;
- · a white protection cap attached to the male Luer cone; and
- · optional color-coded (blue or red) pegs used for line identification: blue for venous lines, and red for arterial lines.

# 5. Intended Use of the Device:

The Connecta® Plus 1 and Connecta® Plus 3 2-way and 3-way Stopcocks are intended to be used as control valves in I.V. therapy and hemodynamic pressure monitoring. They are added to IV cannula or extension tubing sets for simultaneous or alternate administration of IV drugs, fluids, and blood, or for blood sampling. They can also be used in areas in which solution flow requires control. Alternatively, they are used for hemodynamic monitoring via an arterial cannula and a central venous catheter.

# Summary of Technological Characteristics of the Device Compared to 6. the Predicate Device:

The new Plus 1 and Plus 3 stopcocks are similar in design and material as the predicate TH stopcocks. They all are used as control valves in I.V. therapy and hemodynamic monitoring. They all are for single patient use, irradiation sterilized, and pyrogen free.

In addition, the new Connecta® Plus 1 and Connecta® Plus 3 2-way and 3-way Stopcocks with the inner conic front in the A-port allows less air bubble entrapment and turbulence, and together with the larger lumen tap, also increases the flow rate, and improves priming condition and dynamic response. The position indicators added make it easier for the user to confirm if the stopcock is completely closed or open. The new grades of polycarbonate and polyethylene materials used improve the stopcocks resistance to cracking. The one-handle "OFF"-directing tap offered on Connecta® Plus 1 stopcock, instead of the three-handles on the existing predicate stopcocks is designed for customer preference only.

- 7. Tests and Conclusion:
Bench tests have been conducted to assess the effects of changes. All results are satisfactory.
