## Indications for Use

The SmartSite® VialShield is intended for use by healthcare professionals in a wide variety of healthcare environments including hospitals, healthcare facilities, and pharmacies for reconstitution or dispensing of medication. The SmartSite® VialShield is indicated for use with rubber-stopper medication vials for reconstitution or dispensing of medications, including chemotherapy agents.

## Device Story

SmartSite® VialShield is a mechanically and microbiologically closed vial access device used by healthcare professionals in clinical and pharmacy settings. It features a dual-lumen spike that penetrates rubber-stopper medication vials to facilitate fluid transfer and pressure equalization via a hydrophobic filter. The device includes a locking shroud to secure it to the vial and a needle-free Luer access valve. It retains medication vapors and maintains vial sterility for up to 7 days when used in USP <797> compliant environments. The hydrophobic filter prevents particulate/contaminant ingress, liquid leakage during inversion, and pressure build-up. By enabling safe reconstitution and dispensing of hazardous drugs like chemotherapy agents, the device protects clinicians from exposure and preserves medication integrity.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance data included misuse leak tests, filter recovery/integrity, priming volume, detachment force, and biocompatibility (ISO 10993). The device was validated for microbial ingress, leakage, and multiple/extended activations. Sterility maintenance was verified for 7 days. No clinical data was required or provided.

## Technological Characteristics

Materials: Polycarbonate (housings), Silicone (check valves, piston, lubricants), PTFE/Polyester (filter), Acrylic (valve body), Polyurethane (valve cap, barrier film), Loctite 3341 adhesive. Features: Dual-lumen spike, locking shroud, needle-free Luer valve, hydrophobic PTFE/Polyester filter. Dimensions/Form: Vial-mounted access device. Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Not specified. Software: None.

## 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.

# Spike

The spike is used to penetrate a standard medication vial stopper and provide fluid and filtered air paths.

The subject device and the predicate (SmartSite® Vented Vial Access Device) both have equivalent dual lumen spikes; one lumen for fluid transfer and the other which allows for pressure equalization with vented air.

# Locking Shroud

The purpose of the locking shroud is to secure the device to a standard medication vial after the stopper is penetrated. Both the subject and predicate device utilize a locking shroud with retention tabs to ensure device security atop a vial.

## Luer Access

All configurations of the subject device and predicate device use the same needle free valve for Luer access to the device: the SmartSite® needle-free access valve.

## Hydrophobic Filter

Both the subject and predicate device use a hydrophobic filter membrane in their respective designs. This filter serves four purposes in both devices: 1) The filter prevents particulates from leaving the devices when air is introduced; 2) The filter prevents contaminants in the surrounding environment from entering the secured drug vial; 3) The filter prevents liquid from leaving the device during misuse conditions, where the devices are inverted when liquid is injected; 4) The filter allows the air pressure in the vial to acclimate with ambient air pressure, preventing the build-up of pressure in the vial.

## Materials

The subject SmartSite® Vialshield device is constructed of polymeric components:

- . Upper and Lower Housings: Polycarbonate

{3}------------------------------------------------

- 0 Check Valves: Silicone
- . Lubricant: Silicone
- Hydrophobic Filter Membrane: PTFE, Polyester .
- Loctite 3341: UV adhesive ●
- Barrier Film: Polyether Polyurethane .
- SmartSite® valve, including: .
	- O Body: Acrylic
	- 0 Cap: Polyurethane
	- o Piston: Silicone
	- o Lubricants: Silicone

The subject SmartSite® Vialshield device is provided with a molded polyethylene cap, considered part of the packaging, made using low density polyethylene.

The subject SmartSite® Vialshield materials do not contain natural rubber latex. .

The subject SmartSite® VialShield has been tested and meets the biological requirements outlined in ISO 10993-1. A summary of these test results is provided in Section 15 - Biocompatibility.

#### 5.7. Predicate Device Comparison - Performance Characteristics

The performance data supplied with this submission demonstrates that the SmartSite® Vialshield meets all specified requirements and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

Since limited performance data for the predicate SmartSite® Vented Vial Access Device was available, some performance characteristics of the predicate device were tested along with the subject SmartSite® Vialshield device.

The following tests were conducted on the Vented Single Vial Access Device to demonstrate equivalency of the performance characteristics to the predicate device(s):

- o Misuse Leak Test
- o Filter Recovery Test (verification of hydrophobicity)
- Priming Volume .
- Detachment Force (Horizontal) .
- Detachment Force (Vertical) o
- . Priming Volume
- . Filter Integrity
- Biocompatibility ISO 10993 (SmartSite® VialShield tested only) . O Cytotoxicity by Elution Test (Cytotoxicity)

{4}------------------------------------------------

- Intracutaneous Reactivity (Irritation or Intracutaneous O Reactivity)
- Maximization Test for Delayed Hypersensivity (Sensitization) o
- O Acute Systemic Toxicity (Systemic Toxicity (Acute))
- Evaluation of Hemocompatibility: Interaction with Blood o (Hemocompatibility)
- Chemotherapy and Hazardous Drug Compatibility .

Both the subject and predicate devices contain the SmartSite® needle free valve, which has been previously validated for ISO-594 compliance, microbial ingress, leakage, and multiple/extended activation.

Additional testing on the subject SmartSite® Vialshield has been done to ensure that the mechanically closed and microbiologically closed technical characteristics of the subject SmartSite® Vialshield, not present on the predicate device, raise no new concerns about the safety and efficacy when compared to the predicate device

- Expansion chamber air capture .
- . [device] retains introduced vapors
- Maintains drug sterility for 7 days (Approved protocol and acceptance . criteria for the subject SmartSite® Vialshield only)

Test results demonstrate that the subject SmartSite® Vialshield is as safe and effective as the legally marketed devices designated as predicate device.

#### ર.8. Conclusion

Test results demonstrate that the SmartSite® Vialshield is as effective, and performs at least as safely and effectively as the legally marketed devices designated as predicate devices.

Based on comparisons of the device's intended use, technology and performance characteristics, the SmartSite® Vialshield is substantially equivalent to the indicated predicate devices.

Any differences between the SmartSite® Vialshield and the equivalent predicate devices have no significant influence on safety or effectiveness.
