The description mentions software-controlled therapy, monitoring, alarms, and basic image processing for wound area/volume calculation. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any learning algorithms.
Yes
The device is intended to create an environment that promotes wound healing by secondary or tertiary (delayed primary) intention, reducing edema, promoting granulation tissue formation and perfusion, and removing exudate and infectious material, which are all therapeutic actions.
No
Explanation: The device is a wound management system that promotes healing by applying negative pressure. While it has optional features to calculate wound area and volume, its primary intended use is therapy, not diagnosis. The area/volume calculation is a measurement feature, not a diagnostic one that identifies the presence or nature of a disease or condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "software-controlled therapy unit" that applies negative pressure, utilizes a foam dressing, tubing, and a canister. These are physical components that are integral to the device's function, making it a hardware device with software control, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to manage wounds by applying negative pressure to promote healing. This is a therapeutic intervention applied directly to the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device description details a system that applies negative pressure, manages fluids, and monitors therapy parameters. While it includes features like wound imaging and area/volume calculation, these are tools to aid in wound management, not for performing tests on samples taken from the body.
- Lack of In Vitro Testing: There is no mention of the device being used to test samples of blood, tissue, or other bodily fluids outside of the body to diagnose a condition or monitor 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. This device's function is to directly treat a wound on the body.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The V.A.C.® Therapy System is an integrated wound management system for use in acute, extended and home care settings. It is intended to create an environment that promotes wound healing by secondary or tertiary (delayed primary) intention by preparing the wound bed for closure, reducing edema, promoting granulation tissue formation and perfusion, and by removing exudate and infectious material. It is indicated for patients with chronic, acute, traumatic, subacute and dehisced wounds, partial-thickness burns, ulcers (such as diabetic or pressure), flaps and grafts.
The V.A.C.® GranuFoam® Silver™ Dressing is an effective barrier to bacterial penetration and may help reduce infection in the above wound types.

Device Description
The InfoV.A.C.® Therapy System is designed for the application of V.A.C.® Therapy in the acute, extended and home care settings. The software-controlled therapy unit applies negative pressure to the wound bed. The open cells of the V.A.C.® foam dressing to which the therapy unit is connected enable distribution of the negative pressure across the surface of the wound, while the tubing transfers accumulated fluids to the canister. The software monitors and maintains target pressure and alarms as needed to help assure target pressure is maintained and constant therapy is delivered. The safety features of the system include additional alarms, such as those that signal for tubing blockages, a full or missing collection canister, inactive therapy, low battery, and leaks in the seal of the dressing. Optional features include: Seal Check™ for identifying dressing leaks, a Therapy Settings Guide that provides options for therapy settings based on the recommendations in the KCI Clinical Guidelines, a Screen Guard feature that prevents unintentional screen changes, an exportable Therapy History Report, and a Log Tool for recording canister changes, dressing changes and dressing pieces used. Another new optional feature is the ability to receive and store digital images of the patient's wound throughout the healing process. By tracing the wound perimeter on the digital image, wound area can be calculated by the software. If the user inputs a wound depth value, wound volume can also be calculated. Wound images and area/volume calculations can be electronically transferred via a Patient History Report.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The new optional ancillary features were evaluated under a number of verification and validation tests in order to assure performance and conformance to design specifications.
A review of a large body of clinical data from prospective randomized controlled trials, comparative and retrospective studies, payor/provider data, and retrospective review of independent electronic medical record data documents the safe use of the V.A.C. Freedom® Therapy Unit in the home care setting. An engineering analysis of device performance establishes that the InfoV.A.C.® and V.A.C. Freedom® are equivalent in the delivery of negative pressure wound therapy, and that InfoV.A.C.® improves upon V.A.C. Freedom® in the elements that affect safety and usability in the home care setting. The existing clinical data can therefore be used to predict the safety of the InfoV.A.C.® Therapy System in the home care setting.
Verification and validation testing conducted under design control requirements document that the InfoV.A.C.® Therapy Unit and the predicates V.A.C.® ATS and V.A.C. Freedom® Therapy Units are equivalent in terms of technology and performance specifications for the delivery of negative pressure wound therapy. New optional, ancillary features have been determined to meet performance specifications. Clinical data supporting the safe use of the V.A.C. Freedom® Therapy Unit in the home care setting are also applicable to the InfoV.A.C.® Therapy Unit.

Dear Ms. Oviatt:
This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of June 7, 2007.
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 (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 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. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not
