Intended Use
TA-STV is intended to be used with Ohmeda’s disposable Safedraw® Closed Loop Blood Sampling kits. It allows direct transfer of blood samples from a Safedraw® blood sampling septum to an evacuated blood collection tube. The use of TA-STV eliminates the user’s direct exposure to blood, and reduces the risk of needle sticks.
Device Story
TA-STV is a cylindrical direct blood transfer device; consists of Ohmeda Safe Needle (TA-BPN) connected to Becton Dickinson (BD) Vacutainer Luer Adapter; includes sleeve adapter solvent-bonded to TA-BPN. Device used in clinical settings with Safedraw® Closed Loop Blood Sampling kits. Operator (clinician) inserts device into blood sampling septum to transfer blood directly into evacuated collection tube. Primary benefit is reduction of needle stick risk and prevention of direct blood exposure during sampling procedures.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data; bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Cylindrical blood transfer device; components include Ohmeda Safe Needle (TA-BPN), Becton Dickinson Vacutainer Luer Adapter, and solvent-bonded sleeve adapter. Mechanical device; no energy source, software, or electronics.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use by clinicians to facilitate direct blood sample transfer from Safedraw® Closed Loop Blood Sampling kits to evacuated blood collection tubes, minimizing blood exposure and needle stick risk.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A blood specimen collection device is a device intended for medical purposes to collect and to handle blood specimens and to separate serum from nonserum (cellular) components prior to further testing. This generic type device may include blood collection tubes, vials, systems, serum separators, blood collection trays, or vacuum sample tubes.

Dear Ms. Zhang:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
