Indications for Use

The enFlow IV Fluid Warmer System is indicated for warming blood, blood products and intravenous solutions prior to administration. It is intended to be used by healthcare professionals in hospital, clinical and field environments to help prevent hypothermia.

Device Story

The enFlow IV Fluid Warmer Insulated Strap is an accessory for the enFlow IV Fluid Warmer system. It secures the warmer component to the patient during transport. The assembly includes a silicone strap, an insulating element, and a mounting plate. The system warms blood, blood products, and IV solutions before administration to prevent hypothermia. It is operated by healthcare professionals in hospital, clinical, or field settings. The device does not change the fundamental scientific technology of the predicate; it introduces new materials for the insulating element and mounting plate to improve securement during patient transport.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data was required to support substantial equivalence. The submission relied on bench testing, including functional, packaging, and labeling evaluations, as well as biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993 and user validation testing.

Technological Characteristics

The device consists of a silicone strap, an insulating element, and a mounting plate. Materials meet ISO 10993 biocompatibility requirements. The system is an accessory to the enFlow IV Fluid Warmer. No changes to the fundamental scientific technology or energy source were made compared to the predicate.

Indications for Use

Indicated for warming blood, blood products, and IV solutions prior to administration in patients requiring fluid warming to prevent hypothermia. Intended for use by healthcare professionals in hospital, clinical, and field environments.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.
