Intended Use
BIOPATCH* Antimicrobial Dressing containing Chlorhexidine gluconate is intended for use as a hydrophilic wound dressing that is used to absorb exudate and to cover a wound caused by the use of vascular and non-vascular percutaneous medical devices such as: Vascular Devices IV Catheters Central Venous Lines Arterial Catheters Dialysis Catheters Peripherally Inserted Coronary Catheters Mid-Line Catheters Non-vascular percutaneous devices Drains Chest Tubes Externally Placed Orthopedic Pins Epidural Catheters It is also intended to reduce local infections, catheter related blood stream infections (CRBSI), and skin colonization of microorganisms commonly related to CRBSI, in patients with central venous or arterial catheters.
Device Description
BIOPATCH* Antimicrobial Dressing is an absorptive foam with chlorhexidine gluconate, a well-known antiseptic agent with broad spectrum antimicrobial and antifungal activity.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the antimicrobial properties and clinical efficacy of a physical dressing, with no mention of AI or ML technology.

Yes
The device is intended to reduce local infections, catheter related blood stream infections (CRBSI), and skin colonization of microorganisms, which are therapeutic actions.

No

The device description and intended use clearly state that it is a wound dressing intended to absorb exudate, cover wounds, and reduce infections and skin colonization. It does not mention diagnosing any conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "absorptive foam with chlorhexidine gluconate," indicating a physical, hardware-based medical device, not software.

Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes a dressing applied externally to a wound site around percutaneous medical devices. It aims to absorb exudate, cover the wound, and reduce local infections and catheter-related blood stream infections. This is a direct therapeutic and preventative action on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as an absorptive foam with an antiseptic agent. This aligns with a topical dressing, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Activity: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to diagnose a condition, monitor a disease, or determine compatibility. The device's action is physical (absorption) and chemical (antimicrobial).
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the reduction of infections and skin colonization, which are clinical outcomes related to the device's direct action on the patient, not diagnostic accuracy.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

A controlled, randomized, clinical trial consisting of 687 subjects with 1699 central venous or arterial catheter insertion sites was conducted at two centers. Results of this study demonstrated: use of BIOPATCH Antimicrobial Dressing resulted in a statistically significant 44% reduction in the incidence of local infection (p ≤ 0.0001). use of BIOPATCH Antimicrobial Dressing resulted in a statistically significant 60% reduction in the incidence of catheter related blood stream infections (p = 0.026). use of BIOPATCH Antimicrobial Dressing resulted in statistically significant reduction in skin colonization of microorganisms commonly associated with CRBSI (p ≤ 0.05). Patients randomized to the BIOPATCH Antimicrobial Dressing Treatment Group experienced no serious device-related adverse events.

Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)

Reduction in incidence of local infection, reduction in incidence of catheter related blood stream infections, reduction in skin colonization of microorganisms.
