The Terumo Venoject Luer Adapter is a sterile, non-invasive device that permits blood specimen collection from hypodermic needles, blood vessel catheters, or blood collection systems/devices with luer fittings. When blood samples are to be obtained with a single venipuncture, the luer adapter is a conduit between the collection needle and the collection container.
Device Story
Device acts as sterile conduit for blood specimen collection; connects hypodermic needles, catheters, or luer-fitted collection systems to collection containers. Consists of cannula joined to female hub with luer taper; cannula covered by synthetic isoprene rubber tip. Operation: manual; collection container pushed over cannula to retract rubber tip, allowing blood flow; removal of container allows rubber tip to reseal cannula, stopping flow. Used in clinical settings for phlebotomy; operated by healthcare professionals. No direct patient contact. Benefits include facilitating blood sample collection via single venipuncture.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance evaluated via cannula elasticity, cannula/barrel adherence, bending strength, visual inspection, dimensional analysis, and extraction testing. Sterility validated per ISO 11137 to SAL 10^-6.
Indicated for use as a conduit for blood specimen collection from hypodermic needles, blood vessel catheters, or luer-fitted blood collection systems during venipuncture.
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.

# SUMMARY OF SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS INFORMATION PERTAINING TO SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE
TERUMO® VENOJECT® Luer Adapter or similar Proprietary Device Name: proprietary name Classification Name: Blood Specimen Collection Device
#### INTENDED USE
The Terumo Venoject Luer Adapter is a sterile, non-invasive device that permits blood specimen collection from hypodermic needles, blood vessel catheters, or blood collection systems/devices with luer fittings. When blood samples are to be obtained with a single venipuncture, the luer adapter is a conduit between the collection needle and the collection container.
## DESCRIPTION/SPECIFICATIONS
The Terumo Venoject Luer Adapter is a sterile, single use device consisting of a cannula joined to a female connector (hub) which is connected to a luer taper. The cannula is covered with a synthetic isoprene rubber tip for stopping blood flow. When blood is collected, the collection container is placed over the cannula, pushing the rubber tip back, allowing blood flow. When the collection container is removed, the rubber tip extends back over the cannula, stopping blood flow. The luer adapter has no direct patient contact.
## SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE
The Terumo Venoject Luer Adapter submitted in this 510k is substantially equivalent in intended use, design, principle of operation, and materials to the cleared B-D® Vacutainer® Luer Adapter which is the subject of K931367.
#### PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION/TECHNOLOGY
The Terumo Venoject Luer Adapter and the B-D Vacutainer Luer Adapter are both operated manually.

## PERFORMANCE
The performance of the TERUMO® VENOJECT® Luer Adapter has been evaluated and the device performs according to specification.
The following tests were performed to evaluate the performance of the Terumo Venoject Luer Adapter submitted in this 510k:
- . Cannula elasticity
- Cannula/barrel adherence ●
- Bending strength .
- Visual .
- Dimensional .
- Extraction .
## ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION
The sterility of the product is assured using a sterilization method validated and qualified in accordance with the ISO 11137- "Sterilization of Healthcare Products Requirements for Validation and Routine Control - Radiation Sterilization" to a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10-6.
Additionally each lot is monitored with calibrated Radics plastic dosimeters to determine the Gamma radiation dose delivered. Critical parameters, such as exposure time and dose delivery interruption are confirmed to comply with procedure.
Because this device does not come in direct contact with the patient, biocompatibility screening tests were performed. The results of these screening tests gave no indication that additional biocompatibility testing was necessary.
The expiration dating for the TERUMO® VENOJECT® Luer Adapter has been established to be 30 months.
