Intended Use
The KCI Wound Cell Transparent Dressing is intended to provide a moist wound healing environment to facilitate the normal wound healing process. The Dressing may also be used as a secondary fixation device for other topical wound treatments such as antimicrobial and enzymatic debriding solutions and suspensions, alginates, gels and foams. The KCI Wound Cell Transparent Dressing is indicated for: - Non-exudating to minimally exuding wounds - Pressure sores - Lacerations/abrasions - Partial and full thickness wounds - Surgical incisions - Second degree burns - Donor sites - IV sites
Device Description
Occlusive Wound Dressing (21 CFR 878.4020) The KCI occlusive wound dressings differ in that the Wound Cell includes an injection port. This injection port facilitates the application of topical wound care products after the wound dressing has been placed over the wound to serve as a secondary fixation device in addition to its other intended uses.
More Information

No
The document describes a transparent wound dressing with an injection port and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.

No.
The device is an occlusive wound dressing that facilitates the normal wound healing process, but it does not actively provide therapeutic treatment.

No
The document describes a wound dressing, which is a device used to cover and protect wounds to facilitate healing, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly identifies the device as an "Occlusive Wound Dressing," which is a physical, hardware-based medical device. There is no mention of software as the primary component or function.

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 wound dressing applied directly to the body to facilitate wound healing and as a secondary fixation device. This is a therapeutic and protective function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device is described as an "Occlusive Wound Dressing" with an injection port for applying topical wound care products. This aligns with a wound care device, not a device used to examine specimens from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to test or examine specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.

The device falls under the category of a wound dressing, which is a medical device used for wound management, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

§ 878.4020 Occlusive wound dressing.

(a)
Identification. An occlusive wound dressing is a nonresorbable, sterile or non-sterile device intended to cover a wound, to provide or support a moist wound environment, and to allow the exchange of gases such as oxygen and water vapor through the device. It consists of a piece of synthetic polymeric material, such as polyurethane, with or without an adhesive backing. This classification does not include an occlusive wound dressing that contains added drugs such as antimicrobial agents, added biologics such as growth factors, or is composed of materials derived from animal sources.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in part 807, subpart E of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 878.9.

510(k) Summary

Device Trade Name: KCI Wound Cell Transparent Wound Dressing

Classification Name: Occlusive Wound Dressing (21 CFR 878.4020)

    Predicate Devices; KCI Wound Cell Transparent Wound Dressing [510(k) Exempt] KCI Wet Cell Transparent Wound Dressing [510(k) Exempt] SimpliCare Transparent Wound Dressing (K991214) Innovative Technologies' Transparent Film Dressing (K973312)

FDA Regulatory Status:

A final order published in the October 5, 1999 Federal Register exempted occlusive wound dressing from the premarket notification requirements when intended to cover a wound, provide or support a moist wound environment, and allow the exchange of gases such as oxygen and water vapor through the device. This classification regulation does not include occlusive wound dressings that contain added drugs or are composed of materials derived from animal sources.

Indication for Use:

FDA review of previous KCI 510(k) submissions for the KCI Wet Cell and Wound Cell Transparent Wound Dressings determined that both were exempt from the 510(k) requirements. Their indications for use are similar to the cited predicate devices (SimpliCare Transparent Wound Dressing and Innovative Technologies' Transparent Wound Dressings) granted FDA marketing clearance before the 510(k) exemption went into effect. They are intended to cover a wound, provide or support a moist wound environment, and allow the exchange of gases through the device. In addition, they may be used as a secondary fixation device for other wound care products such as alginates, gels and foams. The KCI occlusive wound dressings differ in that the Wound Cell includes an injection port. This injection port facilitates the application of topical wound care products after the wound dressing has been placed over the wound to serve as a secondary fixation device in addition to its other intended uses.

The KCI Wound Cell Transparent Dressing is intended to provide a moist wound healing environment to facilitate the normal wound healing process. The Wound Cell Dressing may also be used as a secondary fixation device for other topical wound treatment products such as antimicrobial and enzymatic debriding solutions and suspensions, alginates, gels and foams.

Purpose of This 510(k) Submission:

Labeling revision to provide directions for using a sterile syringe with an appropriately gauged needle to topically apply legally marketed topical wound treatment solutions, suspensions, alginates, gels and foams on the treatment site through the injection port of a previously applied KCI Wound Cell Transparent Wound Dressing.

Substantial Equivalence:

The FDA review of the previous 510(k) notification for the KCI Wound Cell Transparent Wound Dressing with the injection port for introducing sterile saline, alginates, gels and foams determined that this occlusive wound dressing was exempt from the 510(k) requirements. The present 510(k) submission for the labeling revisions also includes the labeling for several legally marketed topical wound treatment drugs (antimicrobial agent and debriding ointments). The revised labeling does not constitute a major change or modification in the intended use of the KCI Wound Cell Transparent Wound Dressing. No changes in the technological characteristics of this device were necessitated by this labeling revision. Applying the topical wound treatment drugs in this manner does not result in a change in their route of administration, dosage, or intended use. KCI concludes that the KCI Wound Cell Transparent Wound Dressing, as modified by this revised labeling, is substantially equivalent to the cited predicate devices.
