Indications for Use

The EZ-IV Medical Pad Warming Unit is intended to warm alcohol and povidone iodine skin cleansing pads for use in gaining venous access during intravenous fluid and / or medication administration and to facilitate phlebotomy procedures.

Device Story

Compact, portable, tabletop warming unit for factory-sealed alcohol and povidone iodine prep pads. Device features four individual compartments with inner lids and a main outer lid to minimize heat loss. User interface consists of a membrane keypad to control device function. Operates via radiant heating to a pre-set maximum temperature of 55°C. Used in clinical settings to warm pads prior to application on patient skin. Warmed pads reduce the number of venous access attempts (needle sticks) and decrease time required for venous access procedures. Benefits include improved efficiency and patient comfort during phlebotomy or IV placement. Safety testing confirms no adverse effects on pad chemical composition or sterility when heated.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical study in pediatric patients showed a statistically significant reduction in venous access attempts (needle sticks) using warmed alcohol pads versus room temperature pads. A second evaluation showed a significant decrease in time required for venous access using warmed alcohol and povidone iodine pads. Microbial analysis demonstrated that heated pads are equivalent to room temperature pads in reducing microbial load on patient skin.

Technological Characteristics

Compact, portable tabletop unit; radiant heating element; pre-set maximum temperature 55°C; membrane keypad control; four-compartment design with individual lids; electrical safety certified by Underwriters Laboratories.

Indications for Use

Indicated for warming alcohol and povidone iodine skin cleansing pads to facilitate venous access and phlebotomy procedures in patients requiring intravenous fluid or medication administration.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

Models T-4-S, T-8-S, etc | | Description: | The EZ-IV Medical Pad Warming Unit, is a compact, portable,<br>tabletop size medical device, used to warm factory sealed medical<br>prep pads (alcohol and povidone iodine), with a pre-set maximum<br>temperature of 55° C. A lid covers the unit to minimize any heat<br>loss from the medical pads. Inside the unit are four individual<br>compartments, in which the sealed pads are placed. Each<br>compartment has it's own, inner lid. The front of the device has a<br>membrane keypad to control the device function. | | Intended Use:<br>(Indications) | The EZ-IV Medical Pad Warming Unit is intended to warm alcohol<br>and povidone iodine skin cleansing pads for use in gaining venous<br>access during intravenous fluid and / or medication administration<br>and to facilitate phlebotomy procedures. | | SE: | The EZ-IV Medical Pad Warming Unit, is a medical device, and<br>Marda Medical, Inc. believes it falls within the same Federal<br>Regulation Number 21 CFR 890.5950, as the predicate device.<br>Marda Medical believes the EZ-IV Medical Pad Warming Unit has<br>the same technological characteristics, and is substantially<br>equivalent to the predicate device. It differs in that the Thermalator<br>warms it's contents with a water bath, while the EZ-IV Medical Pad<br>Warming Unit employs simple radiant heating. | | Efficacy: | A clinical study was conducted during which alcohol pads were<br>warmed to a temperature of 40° C before being used to facilitate<br>intravenous access in pediatric patients. The results showed a<br>statistically significant reduction in the number of venous access<br>attempts (needle sticks) when warmed alcohol pads were used,<br>compared with the use of non-warmed, room temperature alcohol<br>pads. A second clinical evaluation showed a significant decrease<br>in time required for venous access when warmed alcohol and<br>povidone iodine pads were used compared to room temperature<br>pads. A microbial analysis demonstrated that heated pads are<br>equivalent to room temperature pads in their ability to reduce<br>microbial load on the patient's skin. | | Safety: | Infrared spectrometer analyses showed the device does not affect<br>the chemical composition of the alcohol and betadine pads when<br>warmed at 58° C for 96 hours and 80° C for 24 hours. Additional<br>studies showed the device does not adversely affect the sterility of<br>the alcohol and povidone iodine pads when warmed at 58° C for<br>96 hours. Underwriters Laboratories certification shows there are<br>no electrical safety issues. | | Conclusions: | Marda Medical Inc. believes that the information provided<br>establishes that the EZ-IV Medical Pad Warming Unit performs a<br>similar function to that of other, legally marketed, devices, namely<br>the warming of patient contact materials to provide patient benefit.<br>The devices intended for distribution by Marda Medical have been<br>tested to assure compliance with requirements. | {1}------------------------------------------------ : . . . . . : {2}------------------------------------------------ DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Public Health Service Image /page/2/Picture/2 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
