More Information

Not Found

No
The device is a wound dressing gel and the summary describes its physical properties and performance in non-clinical tests. There is no mention of AI or ML in the description, intended use, or performance studies.

Yes
The device is described as a wound dressing gel intended for the topical management of minor cuts, lacerations, abrasions, burns, and skin irritations, all of which are conditions that require therapeutic intervention for healing. It also helps 'inhibit the growth of microorganisms', which is a therapeutic function.

No
The device is a wound dressing gel that facilitates healing by maintaining a moist wound environment and potentially inhibiting microbial growth; it does not diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a wound dressing gel supplied in a tube, indicating it is a physical product, not software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that Ross Ru is a "wound dressing gel" for "topical management of minor cuts, lacerations, abrasions, 1st and 2nd degree burns, and skin irritations." It is applied directly to the skin surface to aid in wound healing.
  • No Specimen Analysis: The device does not involve the analysis of any specimens taken from the body. Its function is to create a favorable environment for wound healing on the skin.

Therefore, based on the provided information, Ross Ru is a topical wound care product, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Non-Clinical Performance Data:

  • Cytotoxicity Assay (ISO 10993-5:2009). The test product extract showed no cytotoxic potential.
  • Sensitization Test (ISO 10993-1:2009, -10:2010, -12:2012). The test substance was nonsensitizing.
  • Irritation Test (ISO 10993-10:2010). Ross Ru Skin Discontinuities was determined to be non-irritating.
  • Antimicrobial Effectiveness Test -Ross Ru Skin Discontinuities was evaluated for preservative activity in compliance with USP 51 Antimicrobial Effectiveness Test, designed to test efficacy of preservatives. Exposure to Ross Ru Discontinuities caused a significant reduction in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans, and Aspergillus niger.
    The Ross Ru Skin Discontinuities meets all the requirements for overall design and biocompatibility, which confirm that the outputs meets the design inputs and specifications. The Ross Ru Skin Discontinuities passed all testing stated above as shown by the acceptable results obtained.
    The Ross Ru Skin Discontinuities complies with the applicable voluntary standards for biocompatibility and sterilization. The device passed all the testing in accordance with national and international standards.

Clinical Performance Data: There was no clinical testing required to support the medical device as the indications for use is equivalent to the predicate device. These types of devices, including the predicate devices, have been on the market for many years with a proven safety and efficacy for the use of the device. The non-clinical testing detailed in this submission supports the substantial equivalence of the device.

Dear Dr. Gillis:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
