No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical and antimicrobial properties of the wound dressing, with no mention of AI or ML technology.
No
The device is a wound dressing designed for managing exuding wounds and preventing microbial colonization, not for providing a therapeutic intervention like drug delivery or structural support.
No
The device description clearly states it is a wound dressing that absorbs exudate, maintains a moist wound healing environment, and has antimicrobial properties. There is no mention of it being used to diagnose conditions or diseases.
No
The device description clearly indicates it is a physical wound dressing composed of multiple material layers, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the management of exuding wounds. This is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details a wound dressing with absorbent and antimicrobial properties. It does not describe a device used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on biocompatibility and antimicrobial properties of the dressing itself, not on the analysis of biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological specimen. There is no mention of providing diagnostic information.
The mention of "shown in vitro" refers to laboratory testing of the dressing's antimicrobial properties against pathogens in a controlled environment, not the use of the device to diagnose a condition in a patient.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Mepilex Border Ag dressing is indicated for the management of exuding wounds such as leg and foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, traumatic and surgical wounds, superficial and partial thickness burns. Mepilex Border Ag can also be used under compression bandaging. Silver sulfate present in the dressing helps reduce microbial colonization on the dressing.

Device Description
Mepilex Border Ag consists of a Safetac soft silicone wound contact layer, an absorbent polyurethane foam pad containing a silver compound and activated carbon, a layer with super absorbent polyacrylate fibres, a non woven and a vapour permeable waterproof film.
Mepilex Border Ag is a soft silicone foam dressing that absorbs exudate, maintains a moist wound healing environment and has antimicrobial properties.
Mepilex Border Ag contains silver sulfate that when in contact with fluid releases silver ions to inactivate a wide range of wound related pathogens (bacteria and fungi), shown in vitro. By reducing the number of wound related putnogens (bacteria and lung), shown in the
Mepilex Border Ag has been shown to inactivate wound related pathogens up to 7 days in vitro.
