## Device Story

Split Septum Injection Sites are components of Fresenius hemodialysis blood tubing sets. The device features a tapered split septum plug designed to accommodate 21-gauge metal needles or plastic needles with 19% priming volume. Used during hemodialysis procedures in clinical settings; operated by healthcare professionals. The injection site allows for needle access to the extracorporeal circuit. The modification to the septum design enables compatibility with specific needle types while maintaining the function of the existing blood tubing set. Benefits include improved versatility for clinicians accessing the hemodialysis circuit.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Validation testing was performed to confirm the performance of the modified injection site.

## Technological Characteristics

Injection site component for hemodialysis blood tubing sets. Features a tapered split septum plug. Compatible with 21-gauge metal needles and plastic needles. Designed for single-use extracorporeal circuits. Complies with 21 CFR 820.30 design controls.

## Regulatory 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.
