Intended Use
The Hygia Health Services Reprocessed NuTech® Foot Wrap is designed to enhance the circulation of blood in the venules and artise therapeutic method to prevent: - Deep vein thrombosis . - Reduce wound healing time . - Treat and assist healing of venous leg ulcers . - Reduce edema caused by venous insufficiency in the lower extremities . - Decrease compartmental pressures
Device Description
The Hygia Health Services Reprocessed NuTech® Foot Wrap Garment is a compressible limb device that is placed around the patient's foot and when attached to an approved controller, provides intermittent pneumatic compression. The garment is constructed out of brushed nylon with polyester foam backing. The single bladder is constructed out of poly vinyl chloride (PVC), which is RF welded at the seams. The inflation/deflation tube is also composed of PVC. The hook fasteners are made of polyethylene. The tube terminates in a snap lock connector. The garments are placed around the foot at the area of the plantar arch and secured with a hook and loop fastener. As the garment compresses the plantar plexus, veins collapse longitudinally, increasing the venous pressure thus ejecting the blood upward. After compression, the devices deflate allowing the veins to refill and bring oxygenated blood to the lower limbs. The controller predetermines the inflation and deflation sequence. The pressure of compression is determined by the controller and is adjusted by altering the readout on the controller.

No

The device is designed to prevent deep vein thrombosis, reduce wound healing time, treat and assist healing of venous leg ulcers, reduce edema, and decrease compartmental pressures. These are all therapeutic and preventative actions. There is no mention of the device being used to identify or diagnose any medical condition.

No

The device description clearly details physical components like a garment, bladder, tubes, and fasteners, indicating it is a hardware device that provides intermittent pneumatic compression.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a therapeutic method to prevent and treat conditions related to blood circulation in the lower extremities (DVT, wound healing, venous leg ulcers, edema, compartmental pressures). This involves direct interaction with the patient's body for treatment and prevention.
  • Device Description: The device description details a mechanical device that applies intermittent pneumatic compression to the foot. This is a physical intervention, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting substances, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.

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

Statement of Substantial Equivalence 4.

The Hygia Health Services Reprocessed NuTech® Foot Wrap employs no new technology other than the method used to reprocess the garment in order to allow the device to be utilized more than once. The Hygia Health Services Reprocessed NuTech® Foot Wrap is substantially equivalent to the NuTech® PlexiPulse Foot Wrap in that the basis of operation for both of the devices is the intermittent inflation of a single bladder, which is placed around the patient's plantar arch. The garments are then connected to a controller. Inflation of the device is accomplished using ambient air, and a controller cycle that functions to alternately inflate and deflate the sleeves in a predetermined manner and interval.

The Hygia Health Services Reprocessed NuTech® Foot Wrap is substantially equivalent in function, operating parameters, and intended use to the NuTech® PlexiPulse Foot Wrap that is currently commercially available and in distribution. The predicate device, the NuTech® PlexiPulse Foot Wrap, is marked for "singlepatient use only". Hygia Health Services does not change the device in any way except to render the device "reusable" by placing it through a scientifically validated thermal kill pasteurization process. The Hygia Health Services HLD protocol does not alter the device s efficacy, safety, composition, or intended use.
