The proposed Medihoney Gel Wound Dressings with Active Manuka Honey are comprised of 80% Active Manuka Honey, 15% Myristyl Myristate and 5% Plantacare 810 compared to the parent Medihoney Primary Dressings which are comprised of 100% honey, 80% Active Manuka Honey and 20% sodium alginate powder or 95% w/w Active Manuka Honey and 5% w/w Calcium Alginate. The addition of the Myristyl Myristate and Plantacare 810 increases the viscosity of the gel which helps to improve adherence to the wound bed.

No
The device description and intended use focus on the physical properties and composition of a wound dressing, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes
This device is a medical dressing intended for wound healing, which falls under the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

The device is a wound dressing designed to provide a moist environment for wound healing, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device is a wound dressing comprised of physical materials (honey, emulsifier, surfactant) and is not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Medihoney Gel Dressings are wound care dressings applied directly to the wound surface. Their intended use is to provide a moist environment for wound healing and manage various types of wounds.
  • No Mention of In Vitro Testing: The text does not mention any testing of samples taken from the body or any diagnostic purpose. The focus is entirely on the topical application and effect on the wound itself.

Therefore, the Medihoney Gel Dressings with Active Manuka Honey are a medical device (specifically, a wound dressing), but not an in vitro diagnostic device.
