## Indications for Use

The Safety Insulin Pen Needle is intended for use with pen injector devices for the subcutaneous injection of insulin. The attached safety shield automatically locks after injection and reduces the occurrence of accidental needle sticks from the patient end of the needle.

## Device Story

Safety Insulin Pen Needle; single-use sterile hypodermic needle with integrated passive safety shield. Used with pen injectors for subcutaneous insulin delivery. Mechanism: safety shield automatically locks over needle immediately post-injection to prevent accidental needle sticks. Operated by patients or healthcare providers in clinical or home settings. Benefits: reduces risk of sharps injury. Components: hub, spring, needle tube, safety shield, housing, safety seat, outer container, seal paper. Sterilized via Ethylene Oxide.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only. Compliance verified against ISO 9626:2016, ISO 10993-7:2008, ISO 7864:2016, ISO 11608-1:2014, ISO 11608-2:2012, ISO 23908:2011, USP<85>, and various ASTM standards for packaging integrity (F1929-15, F1886/F1886M-16, F88/F88M-15, F1140/F1140M-13).

## Technological Characteristics

Single-lumen hypodermic needle; 29G-32G gauges; 4mm-10mm lengths; thin/extra-thin wall. Materials: hub, spring, safety shield, housing, safety seat. Energy: manual actuation. Sterilization: Ethylene Oxide (SAL 10^-6). Connectivity: none. Standards: ISO 9626, ISO 7864, ISO 11608, ISO 23908, ASTM F1929, ASTM F1886, ASTM F88, ASTM F1140.

## Regulatory Identification

A hypodermic single lumen needle is a device intended to inject fluids into, or withdraw fluids from, parts of the body below the surface of the skin. The device consists of a metal tube that is sharpened at one end and at the other end joined to a female connector (hub) designed to mate with a male connector (nozzle) of a piston syringe or an intravascular administration set.

Dear Diana Hong:

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 (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 located 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.

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

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

requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

## Table 1 General Comparison of Technology Characteristics

{7}------------------------------------------------

Analysis on the differences between the predicate and proposed device:

### Analysis on indications for use:

Both the predicate and proposed device are intended for use with pen injector devices for the subcutaneous injection of insulin. And they have the safety feature to reduce the occurrence of accidental needle sticks. Therefore, although they have different expression on the indication for use, the predicate and proposed device has the same indicatiosn for use.

### Analysis on configuration

The proposed device and predicate device have the same configuration; the difference is the naming of each component.

### Analysis on needle gauge

The needle gauge of the proposed device is different from the predicate device. However, the needle gauge within the range of predicate device needle gauges.Additionally, the performance of needle has been evaluated and the test results comply with related standards requirements. Therefore, this difference does not affect equivalence of the proposed device and predicate device.

### Analysis on needle length

The propose device has an additional 10mm in the needle length, which is outside the range of the predicate device (K181447). However, information provided in the reference device Disposable Insulin Pen Needle (K170846) (Jiangsu Caina Medical Co., Ltd) which validated the 10mm needle length which is also the product of the sponsor has the same needle length as the subject device.

{8}------------------------------------------------

### Analysis on safety feature functions

The safety feature functions of predicate device is not exposured in the predicate device's 510(k) summary. ISO 23908 Safety Feature Testing was conducted to compare the needle safety activation force and force to challenge safe mode both on the predicate and proposed device. The test results demonstrated that they have the similar safety feature functions. Therefore, this item is considered to be substantial equivalent.

#### Substantially Equivalent (SE) Conclusion 9.

Based on the comparison and analysis above, the proposed devices are determined to be Substantially Equivalent (SE) to the predicate device.
