The description focuses on the chemical composition and mechanical application of a topical skin adhesive, with no mention of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is a topical skin adhesive intended to hold closed easily approximated skin edges of wounds, which constitutes a therapeutic application for wound closure.
No
The device, LiquiBand Flow Control, is a topical skin adhesive used for wound closure. Its function is to hold approximated skin edges together, not to diagnose any condition or disease.
No
The device description clearly indicates a physical product (topical tissue adhesive, applicator with glass ampoule and plastic body) and performance studies related to physical properties (tensile strength, set time, viscosity, etc.), not software functionality.
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 topical application of an adhesive to close skin wounds. This is a direct application to the body for a therapeutic purpose (wound closure).
- Device Description: The device is a topical tissue adhesive.
- Lack of In Vitro Activity: IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not involve the analysis of any biological specimens.
The device is a medical device, but its function is to physically close wounds on the body, not to perform diagnostic testing on samples taken from the body.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
LiquiBand Flow Control topical skin adhesive is intended for topical applications only, to hold closed easily approximated skin edges of wounds from surgical incisions, including punctures from minimally invasive surgery and simple, thoroughly cleansed, trauma induced lacerations. LiquiBand Flow Control topical skin adhesive may be used in conjunction with, but not in place of, deep dermal stitches.

Device Description
LiquiBand® Flow Control is a sterile, topical tissue adhesive containing n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate for wound closure. LiquiBand® Flow Control is supplied in a single patient use configuration. The applicator is composed of a crushable glass ampoule contained within a plastic polypropylene applicator. The ampoule is crushed through force applied by the clinician to the 'wings' of the applicator body. It is applied to easily approximated skin edges and polymerizes within 30 seconds. The device is contained within a PET/tyvek blister.

§ 878.4010 Tissue adhesive.
(a)
Tissue adhesive for the topical approximation of skin —(1)Identification. A tissue adhesive for the topical approximation of skin is a device intended for topical closure of surgical incisions, including laparoscopic incisions, and simple traumatic lacerations that have easily approximated skin edges. Tissue adhesives for the topical approximation of skin may be used in conjunction with, but not in place of, deep dermal stitches.(2)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is FDA's “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: “Tissue Adhesive for the Topical Approximation of Skin.” See § 878.1(e) of this chapter for the availability of this guidance document.(b)
Tissue adhesive for non-topical use —(1)Identification. A tissue adhesive for non-topical use, including adhesives intended for use in the embolization of brain arteriovenous malformation or for use in ophthalmic surgery, is a device used for adhesion of internal tissues and vessels.(2)
Classification. Class III (premarket approval). As of May 28, 1976, an approval under section 515 of the act is required before this device may be commercially distributed. See § 878.3 of this chapter.

Technological Characteristics
The technological characteristics of LiquiBand Flow Control are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. All use n-butyl cyanoacrylate technology to facilitate wound closure.
LiquiBand Flow Control consists of a liquid topical skin adhesive formulation packaged within a dispensing applicator. The device is supplied in a sterile single use package for use in wound closure procedures. LiquiBand Flow Control design allows for precise application of the adhesive to the wound area. The topical skin adhesive is designed to bond to the skin to provide wound closure maintaining wound approximation.
The main differences between LiquiBand Flow Control and the predicates are
1 - minor change to the formulation to allow stability after e beam sterilization
2 - contain the cyanoacrylate in a sealed glass ampoule for ambient storage
2
LiquiBand® Flow Control is substantially equivalent to LiquiBand Substantial Equivalence: Ultima Topical Skin Adhesive (K100284) and LiquiBand (K083531) with regard to Indication For Use, formulation, technology, target population, intended application, mechanism of action and performance at achieving their intended use. Biocompatibility The biological evaluation of LiquiBand Flow Control has been performed in accordance with ISO 10993 and the FDA-modified
'Use of International Standard ISO 10993, Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part-1: Evaluation and Testing, for breached or compromised surface with blood contact for the wound closure and subsequent layer adhesives' and the Special Controls document 'Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff: Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Tissue Adhesive for the Topical Approximation of Skin' May 30th 2008
The biocompatibility tests were conducted for a "breached or compromised surface with blood contact device with prolonged contact duration of greater than 24 hours but less than 30 days" since the adhesive is applied to a wound and allowed to dry. All of the testing was performed in accordance with ISO 10993 and using Good Laboratory Practices (GLP).
The results provide evidence that LiquiBand Flow Control is safe and biocompatible for its intended use and therefore substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
Sterilisation and Shelf Life
Sterilisation of LiquiBand Flow Control is the same as the predicate LiquiBand (K083531). Sterilisation is carried out to a SAL 10° by ebeam on the finished device.
Real time and accelerated stability testing data has been generated to support this submission. Current data supports an 18 month shelf life
Substantial Equivalence Testing Summary:
The following comparative testing demonstrated substantially equivalent performance between LiquiBand Flow Control, LiquiBand and LiquiBand Ultima :
- Tensile strength (ASTM F2255-05, F2258-05, F2458-05) ■
- . Set (polymerization) time
- . Heat of polymerization
- 해 Viscosity
- GC Chemical Analysis 1
- . Force to actuate

Conclusion
Based on the nonclinical testing carried out LiquiBand Flow Control is considered as safe, as effective and performs as well or better than the legally marketed predicate devices -LiquiBand and LiquiBand Ultima.
LiquiBand Flow Control was evaluated in tests to establish a performance and safety profile in accordance with the Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Tissue Adhesive for Topical Approximation of Skin.
