## Indications for Use

The ACCU-CHEK Ultraflex is an infusion set for the subcutaneous infusion of insulin administered with microdosage insulin pumps.

## Device Story

ACCU-CHEK Ultraflex is a single-use, disconnectable subcutaneous infusion set; facilitates insulin delivery from external microdosage insulin pumps to patient tissue. Device features soft cannula perpendicular to adhesive; stainless steel introducer needle for insertion. Used by patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. System interfaces with pumps via luer connections; enables continuous insulin infusion. Benefits include reliable subcutaneous delivery of prescribed insulin therapy.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data was required to support the device modification. Substantial equivalence was demonstrated through non-clinical bench testing, including soft cannula length confirmation, introducer needle length confirmation, insertion force testing, and system functional verification.

## Technological Characteristics

Single-use, ethylene oxide sterilized, disconnectable infusion set. Components: soft cannula, stainless steel introducer needle, tubing, and luer connector. Cannula lengths: 6mm, 8mm, 10mm. Tubing ID/OD: 0.39mm x 1.46mm. Priming volumes: 69μl to 163μl depending on tube length. Interfaces with external insulin pumps.

## 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.

## Device Description

The ACCU-CHEK Ultraflex is an ethylene oxide sterilized, single-use, disconnectable infusion set with soft cannula perpendicular to the adhesive, for transfusion of insulin into the subcutaneous tissue. The infusion set includes a stainless steel introducer needle to facilitate insertion of the soft cannula into the dermis. The unit is designed to interface with commercially available insulin infusion pumps with suitable luer connections. The insulin infusion pump systems are designed to control the delivery of U100 insulin as prescribed by a health care professional. The system (infusion set, insulin infusion pump, and insulin) is indicated for patients with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus.

## Intended Uses

The ACCU-CHEK Ultraflex is an infusion set for the subcutaneous infusion of insulin administered with microdosage insulin pumps.

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

## Technological Characteristics

The modified ACCU-CHEK Ultraflex infusion set uses the same materials and design as the predicate device. The modified ACCU-CHEK Ultraflex infusion set provides a 6mm cannula length variant. The predicate device includes cannula lengths of 8mm and 10mm. There are no other significant differences between the modified ACCU-CHEK Ultraflex and the predicate ACCU-CHEK Ultraflex. The fundamental scientific technology, indications for use, intended use, materials, design, sterilization and packaging are identical between the proposed and predicate devices.

Dimensional characteristics of the predicate compared to the modified device are listed below. ·

### Performance Standards

To date, no performance standards that affect this device have been finalized under Section 514 of the Act.

FDA has published a guidance document for review of intravascular administration sets entitled, Guidance on Premarket Notification for Intravascular Administrations Sets. FDA has also published a guidance document for review of external infusion pumps entitled. Guidance On The Content Of Premarket Notification [510(k)] Submissions For External Infusion Pumps and a draft update entitled, Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff - Total Product Life Cycle: Infusion Pump - Premarket Notification [510(k)] Submissions. FDA has published a guidance document for review of medical devices with sharps entitled, Supplementary Guidance on Premarket Notifications for Medical Devices with Sharps Injury Prevention Features: Guidance for Industry and FDA. Roche has evaluated this modified device according to the recommendations provided in these guidance documents and our internal system development guidelines and standard operating procedures.

### Testing Conclusions

Non-clinical testing of the modified ACCU-CHEK Ultraflex Infusion Set demonstrated that the device meets the requirements for its intended use. The data also demonstrates that the ACCU-CHEK Ultraflex Infusion Set is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. Non-clinical testing included: soft cannula length confirmation, introducer needle length confirmation, insertion force, and system functional verification testing.

Clinical testing was not required to validate the device modification or support substantial equivalence.
