AND PRODUCT
CODE | Class II per 21 CFR §880.5200
Product Code: 80 FOS | | PREDICATE
Device Name | CATCO Umbilical Vessel Catheter (K944368) | #### SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE: The NeoMed Single Lumen Umbilical Catheter is substantially equivalent to the CATCO Umbilical Vessel Catheter cleared under K944368. Both devices have the same method of operation to sample blood, monitor blood pressure, or administer fluids intravenously. Bench testing has demonstrated that the NeoMed Single Lumen Umbilical Catheter is functionally equivalent to predicate umbilical catheters currently on the market and that any minor differences do not affect safety or effectiveness. {1}------------------------------------------------ ### DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE: The NeoMed Single Lumen Umbilical Catheter is a silicone single lumen catheter with natural white barium sulfate included for radiopacity. The device consists of the following main components: a single lumen umbilical catheter, a hub, and a luer lock connector, and 3 way stopcock with 2 female type connectors. #### INDICATIONS FOR USE: The NeoMed Single Lumen Umbilical Catheter is intended for use in neonatal and pediatric patients to patients to sample blood, monitor blood pressure, or administer fluids intravenously. #### PERFORMANCE DATA: The NeoMed Single Lumen Umbilical Catheter materials that come in direct contact with the patient have a long history of use in umbilical catheter manufacture and are biocompatible according to ISO 10993. Functional test results demonstrate that the NeoMed Single Lumen Umbilical Catheter performs its intended use and is equivalent to the predicate device. #### CONCLUSION: Based on the performance testing, it can be concluded that the NeoMed Single Lumen Umbilical Catheter is equivalent to the predicate CATCO Umbilical Vessel Catheter with respect to intended use and technological characteristics.
