Intended Use
For over-the-counter use, SILVERSEAL® Adhesive Strips with X-Static® may be used for: First aid to help in minor abrasions, minor cuts, lacerations, scrapes, minor scalds and burns. Under the supervision of a health care professional, SILVERSEAL® Adhesive Strips may be used for the management of: SILVERSEAL® Adhesive Strips with X-Static® are sterile, non-adherent dressings intended for local management of partial thickness burns, incisions, skin grafts, donor sites, lacerations, abrasions, and Stage I-IV dermal ulcers (vascular, venous, pressure and diabetic).
Device Description
SILVERSEAL® Adhesive Strips with X-Station are designed to intimately contact the wound as a primary dressing and permit the passage of fluids. The silver provides effective protection of the dressing abainst microbial contamination. The nylon fabric permits the passage of exygen and fluids to and from the wound. The surface of the nylon fibers in SILVERSEAL® Adhesive Strips with X-Static; consists or a thin layer of approximately 22. metallic silver containing approximately 1.5 silver oxide that provides effective protection of the dressing against microbial contamination. SILVERSEAL: Adhesive Strips are made of flexible, sterile, non-adherent fabric consisting of a knitted continuous nylon fiber substrate with 22% metallic silver surface containing approximately 1.58 silver oxide.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and antimicrobial effects of silver, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for analysis, diagnosis, or treatment.

Yes.
The device is a wound dressing designed to help manage partial thickness burns, incisions, skin grafts, donor sites, lacerations, abrasions, and dermal ulcers, indicating it is intended to provide therapeutic benefit for these conditions.

No
The device, SILVERSEAL® Adhesive Strips, is described as a dressing for wound management and protection against microbial contamination. Its intended uses and device description focus on therapeutic or protective functions for injuries and burns, not on identifying, detecting, or monitoring diseases or conditions.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical dressing made of nylon fiber and silver, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "First aid to help in minor abrasions, minor cuts, lacerations, scrapes, minor scalds and burns" and for "local management of partial thickness burns, incisions, skin grafts, donor sites, lacerations, abrasions, and Stage I-IV dermal ulcers". These are all applications directly on the body for wound care.
  • Device Description: The description details a "sterile, non-adherent fabric" designed to "intimately contact the wound as a primary dressing". This is a physical dressing applied to a wound.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to test samples in vitro (outside the body), such as blood, urine, or tissue. Its function is to cover and protect a wound on the body.

Therefore, the SILVERSEAL® Adhesive Strips with X-Static® are a wound dressing, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
