The description focuses on the chemical properties and antibacterial effectiveness of the wound dressing, with no mention of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is a wound dressing indicated for use in various types of wounds, providing an antibacterial barrier to inhibit bacterial growth, which falls under the definition of a therapeutic device.
No
Explanation: The device is a wound dressing designed to provide an antibacterial barrier and inhibit bacterial growth. It is used for treatment and protection of wounds, not for diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical wound dressing with adhesive backing, a non-woven polyester substrate, a mesh layer, and a polyurethane film. It also details the chemical process and the presence of oxidized silver species. This is a hardware device, 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 treating wounds by providing an antibacterial barrier. This is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details a wound dressing with silver technology to inhibit bacterial growth. This is a physical device applied to the body, not a reagent or instrument used to examine specimens from the body.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the physical and antibacterial properties of the dressing (silver content, absorbency, antibacterial effectiveness, biocompatibility), not on the analysis of biological samples for diagnostic purposes.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform such a function.

Device Description
Exciton Technologies Inc. has developed the exSALT® technology, a proprietary chemical process, which deposits oxidized silver species onto a substrate; a non-woven polyester with a gray Delnet® HDPE mesh layer thermally laminated to one side (wound contact layer). The pad is backed with a clear polyurethane film with acrylate adhesive to hold the dressing in the exsalt® SD7 Wound Dressing with Adhesive Backing inhibits bacterial growth in the dressing pad. The concentration of the silver and oxidized silver species on the dressing pad is 0.4 mg/cm² (1.8%w/w). The exsalt® SD7 Wound Dressing with Adhesive Backing has been shown to be effective in vitro against Staphylococcus aureus. Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii for up to 7 days.
The exsalt® SD7 Wound Dressing with Adhesive Backing consists of a pad constructed of a wound contact layer of HDPE with an inner layer of absorbent polyester which are all silver-coated. The pad has been placed onto a biocompatible clear polyurethane film with acrylate adhesive that allows for securement of the dressing to the skin. The wound-contacting materials in both the exsalt® SD7 Wound Dressing with Adhesive Backing and the predicate are the same.
The exsalt® SD7 Wound Dressing with Adhesive Backing is sterilized by gamma irradiation.

8. Summary of Substantial Equivalence
The labeled indications of the exsalt® SD7 Wound Dressing with Adhesive Backing are equivalent to those of the predicate device, exsalt® SD7 Wound Dressing (K103067). The directions for use of the exsalt® SD7 Wound Dressing with Adhesive Backing have been modified from the predicate by the removal of the instructions to "Secure with surgical tape or a bandage as appropriate" as the new configuration replaces any need for additional securement. The design, materials, and manufacturing methods of the pad that contacts the wound are the same as those of the predicate device, exsalt® SD7 Wound Dressing (K103067), and therefore do not raise any new issues concerning safety or effectiveness.
a) Summary of Technological Characteristics
The exsalt® SD7 Wound Dressing with Adhesive Backing consists of a pad constructed of a wound contact layer of HDPE with an inner layer of absorbent polyester which are all silver-coated.
