## Indications for Use

The OMI Safety Insulin Syringes are intended for the subcutaneous injection of insulin. In addition, the syringe is designed to aid in prevention of needlestick injuries. This device is a safety hypodermic syringe for intramuscular and subcutaneous injection of medication to patients. This device aids in prevention of needlestick injuries. EO sterilized, non-pyrogenic, and latex free. The function of the OMI Retractable Safety Syringe is to provide a safe, accurate and reliable method of injecting medication into a patient.

## Device Story

OMI Retractable Safety Syringe is a sterile, single-use, latex-free, non-pyrogenic piston syringe with an integral needle. Available in 1ml, 3ml, and 10ml sizes. Operates like a conventional hypodermic syringe; features a user-activated spring-loaded mechanism that retracts the contaminated needle into the plunger immediately following injection. Used by healthcare professionals for subcutaneous and intramuscular medication administration. Retraction mechanism serves to contain the needle, reducing risk of accidental needlestick injuries to the operator.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Compliance with ISO 6009, ISO 7864, ISO 7886-1, ISO 7886-4, and ISO 10993 standards demonstrated performance and safety.

## Technological Characteristics

Piston syringe with integral needle; spring-loaded retraction mechanism. Materials: Latex-free. Sterilization: Ethylene Oxide (ISO 11135). Standards: ISO 6009 (color coding), ISO 7864 (needles), ISO 7886-1/4 (syringes), ISO 10993 (biocompatibility).

## Regulatory Identification

A piston syringe is a device intended for medical purposes that consists of a calibrated hollow barrel and a movable plunger. At one end of the barrel there is a male connector (nozzle) for fitting the female connector (hub) of a hypodermic single lumen needle. The device is used to inject fluids into, or withdraw fluids from, the body.

### 18. Summary Comparing Technological Characteristics With Predicate Devices:

The OMI Manufacturing Pty Ltd makes a Substantial Equivalence claim of the OMI Retractable Safety Syringe to Retractable Technologies, Inc., Pop-n-Lock Syringe (currently marketed as the Vanishpoint syringe), 510(k) # k946219. Both syringes are similar and in some cases the same, with regards to parts, design, material, operating procedure and intended use. Both the OMI and Vanishpoint syringes consist of a syringe barrel, syringe plunger, single lumen hypodermic needle, needle hub and stem. Both have a spring retracting mechanism which is user activated once medication has been injected. Both are plunger syringes which are supplied with permanently attached needles. Both are supplied sterile, single-use and disposable.

Dear Mr. Kamm:

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. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898.
