No
The device description focuses on the mechanical barrier action and material properties, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
Yes
The device is described as providing "temporary relief of pain" and covering/soothing "oral lesions of various etiologies," which directly addresses a health condition (pain/lesions) and aims to alleviate it.
No
The device description and intended use state that RexaStom Oral Ease provides a mechanical barrier for pain relief by adhering to and covering oral lesions, which is a therapeutic action, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "dry, wafer or matrix type material" and describes its physical form and ingredients, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software.
Based on the provided information, RexaStom™ Oral Ease is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that RexaStom is for the "temporary relief of pain by adhering to the mucosal surface of the mouth, covering and soothing oral lesions." This describes a therapeutic or palliative action within the body (in vivo), not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body (in vitro).
- Device Description: The description focuses on the physical properties and mechanism of action (forming a protective barrier) within the mouth. It does not mention any analysis of biological samples or the detection of specific substances or conditions.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting specific analytes (proteins, genes, pathogens, etc.)
- Providing diagnostic information about a disease or condition
- Using reagents or assays
RexaStom Oral Ease is a medical device intended for local application and physical protection within the oral cavity to alleviate symptoms. This falls under the category of a therapeutic or palliative medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
RexaStom™ Oral Ease has a mechanical barrier action indicated for the temporary relief of pain by adhering to the mucosal surface of the mouth, covering and soothing oral lesions of various etiologies. The lesions include oral mucositis resulting from chemo- or radiation therapy, stomatitis, irritation due to oral surgery, traumatic ulcers caused by braces or ill-fitting dentures, aphthous ulcers, or other diseases or conditions of the oral mucous surfaces.
Note that the indications for RexaStom are the same as for the predicate devices.

Device Description
RexaStom Oral Ease is a dry, wafer or matrix type material, similar to coarse blotting paper. For mucositis, it is supplied in a 2.5-cm curcular format, packaged in a vacuumsealed, foil packet. Its ingredients are either food grade or generally regarded as safe and therefore the wafer material is safe when swallowed. RexaStom is designed to be physiologically compatible with both intact and compromised tissue in the mouth, and provides temporary management of pain associated with various types of injuries to the mouth.
RexaStom's primary mode of action for pain relief is that it adheres to the wound surface, conforms to the contour of the wound, and protects the wound from contamination and irritation by forming a temporary protective barrier that is similar to the natural mucosa.

5. Intended Use of the Device
The indications for RexaStom are the same as for the predicate devices:
RexaStom"" Oral Ease has a mechanical barrier action indicated for the temporary relief of pain by adhering to the mucosal surface of the mouth, covering and soothing oral lesions of various etiologies. The lesions include oral mucositis resulting from chemo- or radiation therapy, stomatitis, irritation due to oral surgery, traumatic ulcers caused by braces or ill-fitting dentures, aphthous ulcers, or other diseases or conditions of the oral mucous surfaces.
- Technological Characteristics of the Device Compared to Predicate Devices:
RexaStom, like the predicate devices cited in this 510(k), adheres to the wound surface, conforms to the contours of the wound, and provides temporary management of pain by forming a protective barrier over the wound, similar to undamaged natural mucosa. All these barriers manage pain by protecting the wound from contamination and irritation. They all slowly dissolve in the mouth, and all are safe if swallowed. Thus, the indication for use and the mode of action of this device are identical to those of predicate devices. We have found that the coating behavior of RexaStom in the mouth is the same as that for Gelclair, one of the predicate devices.
RexaStom is equivalent in composition to that of the cited predicate devices, except that because it is freeze-dried, glycerin is added to decrease brittleness, and preservatives have been omitted from its formulation. Further, because it is freeze-dried, it is light and easy to handle, and easier to use in public settings, because no mixing is needed. Because of this feature, we believe patients will be more likely to use the product for temporary relief of pain to make it easier for them to eat.
RexaStom contains five ingredients, all of which are food grade or approved by FDA for internal use, and generally regarded as safe. These ingredients are also in Gelclair, perhaps the closest predicate device. As it is now formulated, RexaStom omits flavoring, and is tasteless. Testing with more subjects may require addition of flavoring and possibly sweetener, which we assume will not require further approval.
Conclusion: RexaStom Oral Ease is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in its indications and composition, and in its safety and effectiveness. Because the formulation of RexaStom is similar to, but more simple than, the predicate devices, the criteria for substantial equivalence have been met.
