The device description details a passive wound dressing with antimicrobial properties, and there is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.
Yes
Silver Alginate II Dressing is intended for the management of various wounds, including post-operative, trauma, and ulcer wounds, and aids in maintaining a moist environment for optimal wound healing. This direct involvement in the healing process qualifies it as a therapeutic device.
No
The device, Silver Alginate II Dressing, is described as a wound dressing intended for management and protection of various wounds. Its primary function is to absorb wound fluid, maintain a moist environment for healing, provide an antibacterial barrier, and aid autolytic debridement. There is no indication in the provided text that it acquires, processes, or interprets data to determine a medical condition, disease, or risk, which is the function of a diagnostic device.
No
The device description clearly states it is a sterile, non woven pad composed of physical materials (calcium alginate, carboxymethylcellulose, ionic silver complex) and is available in various physical sizes and forms (flat dressings, rope dressings). This is a physical medical device, not a software-only one.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as a wound dressing for managing various types of external wounds. This is a topical application for wound care, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The description details the composition and function of a wound dressing (absorbing exudate, forming a gel, releasing silver ions for antimicrobial protection). This aligns with the characteristics of a wound care product, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any of the typical features of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting specific analytes or markers
- Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions
Therefore, the Silver Alginate II Dressing is a medical device intended for wound management, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
Silver Alginate II Dressing is a sterile, non woven pad composed of a high G (guluronic acid) calcium alginate, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and ionic silver complex (Silver Sodium Hydrogen Zirconium Phosphate), which releases silver ions in the presence of wound fluid. As wound fluid is absorbed the alginate forms a gel, which assists in maintaining a moist environment for optimal wound healing, and allows intact removal.
The silver ions protect the dressing from a broad spectrum of microorganisms over a period of up to twenty-one (21) days, based on in-vitro testing. . Odour reduction results from the antibacterial effect in the dressing.
Silver Alginate II Dressing is an effective barrier to bacterial penetration.
Silver Alginate II Dressing protects the wound and aids autolytic debridement therefore facilitating wound healing.
The dressing has an off-white appearance and is available
in various sizes (5cm x 5cm, 10cm x 10cm, 15cm x 15cm,
10cm x 20cm, 20cm x 30cm flat dressings; 2.7cm x 30cm
and 3cm x 44cm flat rope dressings; and 30cm x 2g rope
dressings). The flat rope dressings are packaged in pouches
and the flat rope and rope dressings are packaged in a
blister pack.
