No
Therapeutic devices are typically used to treat a disease or medical condition. This device is indicated for first aid to help in minor abrasions, cuts, lacerations, scrapes and scalds.
No
The device description and intended use indicate it is a bandage used for wound care and reducing bacterial growth, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical bandage made of polyurethane with silver oxide, indicating it is a hardware device, not software only.
Based on the provided information, the CURAD® Silver Gel Bandage is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for first aid to help in minor abrasions, cuts, lacerations, scrapes, and scalds. This describes a direct application to the body for wound care.
- Device Description: The description details a bandage with silver oxide for antimicrobial effect and a moist healing environment. This is a topical wound dressing.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVDs are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The provided information does not mention any such use or interaction with biological specimens for diagnostic purposes.
Therefore, the CURAD® Silver Gel Bandage is a medical device, specifically a wound dressing, but it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic.

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 ahove) 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.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.
