Intended Use
LiquiShield®-S is intended to protect intact or damaged skin from the effects of moisture, friction (rubbing), or shear (tearing). LiquiShield®-S helps protect skin exposed to irritation from moisture such as urine, faeces, digestive juices, perspiration and wound drainage. LiquiShield®-S can also be used in areas that are exposed to friction and shear such as occurs when items, such as bedding, clothing, or shoes, rub against the skin. LiquiShield®-S helps protect the skin against irritation caused by adhesive products.
Device Description
LiquiShield®-S is a non-cytotoxic (not harmful to the bodv) cyanoacrylate based, rapid drying, liquid barrier film for the protection of the skin. It is applied as a liquid and dries, within 45 seconds, adhering to the contours of the skin to form a transparent flexible film. LiquiShield®-S will wear off, naturally, as the skin regenerates. The applicator and packaging are sterilized.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and biocompatibility of a liquid barrier film, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No.
The device acts as a protective barrier on the skin, preventing irritation rather than treating a disease or condition. While it protects damaged skin, its primary mode of action is preventative and physical, not therapeutic in the sense of actively healing or curing.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a liquid barrier film intended to protect skin from moisture, friction, and irritation. It does not mention any function related to identifying, detecting, or monitoring a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "liquid barrier film" and describes its physical properties and application, indicating it is a physical product, not software.

Based on the provided information, LiquiShield®-S is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use of LiquiShield®-S is to protect intact or damaged skin from external factors like moisture, friction, and shear. This is a topical application for skin protection, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a liquid barrier film applied to the skin. This aligns with a topical protective product, not a device used for in vitro analysis.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. LiquiShield®-S does not fit this description.

Dear Mr. Beaumont:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
