Device Description
The BioFriend™ BioMask™ N95 surgical respirator, Model: Professional (BF-200-3013AN) is flatfolded and expands into a convex-shaped mask with polyamide/spandex elastic head-loops to secure the mask to the user's face, and a malleable aluminum strip positioned above the nose for a tighter seal around the nose and face. The respirator is comprised of four layers of material: an outer layer of spun-bond polypropylene, a second layer of cellulose/polyester, a third layer of melt-blown polypropylene filter material and an inner (fourth) layer of spun-bound polypropylene. All of the construction materials used in this device are typical construction materials commonly used in surgical facemasks and N95 surgical respirators and being used in current legally marketed devices. The outer active layer of the respirator is coated with a hydrophilic plastic. The second inner layer is treated with copper and zinc ions. Both layers inactivate influenza viruses using different mechanisms of action.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on the physical construction and chemical properties of the mask for viral inactivation, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.

The device is intended to reduce exposure to pathogenic biological airborne particulates and protect against the transfer of microorganisms, not to treat a disease or medical condition in a patient. While it inactivates viruses on its surface, its primary stated purpose is protection and reduction of exposure for the wearer.

No

Explanation: The device is an N95 surgical respirator designed to inactivate viruses and protect the wearer from airborne particulates, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical medical device (a surgical respirator) with multiple layers of material and active chemical ingredients. There is no mention of software as a component or the primary function of the device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to be worn by individuals to reduce exposure to airborne particulates and protect against the transfer of micro-organisms, body fluids, and particulate material. This is a protective device worn on the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical mask with layers and materials designed for filtration and inactivation of viruses on the surface.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: An IVD is a device used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such tests on biological samples.
  • "In vitro" in the text: The text mentions "in vitro tests" when describing the laboratory testing of the mask's ability to inactivate viruses on its surface. This refers to testing done outside of a living organism, which is a common method for evaluating the efficacy of materials or substances. It does not mean the device itself is an IVD.

The device is clearly described as a surgical respirator, which is a type of personal protective equipment (PPE).
