Intended Use

NAW Alution for prescription use is intended for use under the supervision of healthcare professionals for cleansing, moistening, debriding, and removal of foreign material including microorganisms and debris from wounds, including acute and chronic dermal lesions, such as Stage I-IV pressure ulcers, leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, postsurgical wounds, first and second degree burns, grafted and donor sites. It is also intended for moistening absorbent wound dressings and cleaning minor burns, superficial abrasions and minor irritations of the skin.

NAWAlution for over-the-counter use is intended for cleansing wounds and moistening absorbent wound dressings for the management of minor cuts, abrasions, lacerations and minor burns.

Device Description

The subject device of this submission is NAWAlution Skin and Wound Cleanser for prescription and OTC use. NAWAlution is a clear, colorless liquid intended for the management of wounds. The solution is applied by spraying it directly onto the affected area and/or the dressing. As a result of mechanical action of the solution moving across the wound bed foreign objects, foreign debris and exudate, including, dirt, debris, and microorganisms, are removed from the wound. Moistening and cleansing a wound, such as by using NAWAlution, allows for the natural healing process to take place. NAWAlution for prescription use is supplied in an 8 fluid oz. (237 mL) or 16 fluid oz. (473 mL) spray bottle with a plunger-activated pump applicator. NAWAlution for over-the-counter is supplied in a 50 mL (1.8 fluid oz.) spray bottle with a plunger-activated pump applicator. The solution contains cocamidopropylbetaine, hydrochloric acid, PHMB, zinc/iron, and purified water.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification for the NAWAlution Skin and Wound Cleanser, which has been determined to be substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices. It describes the device's intended use and compares its features to several predicate devices. However, the document does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study that proves the device meets specific acceptance criteria in the format requested.

The document states that "The safety and effectiveness of NAWAlution is supported by biocompatibility testing, functional performance testing, and shelf-life testing conducted with the proposed device." However, no details about the acceptance criteria for these tests, the specific results that met them, or the methodologies are provided.

Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request for the specific information regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving their fulfillment. The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on identical intended use and similar technological characteristics, rather than presenting a performance study against predefined acceptance criteria.

Dear Ms. Mullen:

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
