Rx: The KA01 Chitosan Wound Dressing is indicated for the management of moderately to heavily exuding chronic wounds and acute wounds.

Device Description
The KA01 Chitosan Wound Dressing is a sterile non-woven chitosan dressing comprising 100% chitosan fibers. The KA01 Chitosan Wound Dressing is a highly absorbent, conformable and wet integral. As wound exudate is absorbed the chitosan forms a gel, which assists in maintaining a moist environment for optimal wound healing, aids autolytic debridement, and allows intact removal. The KA01 Chitosan Wound Dressing is intended for use as a primary dressing on a variety of chronic and acute wounds. It is intended to be secured with a semi permeable adhesive secondary dressing and to remain in place up to 7 days depending on the level of exudate. Dressings are individually packed in paper/poly pouches and terminally sterilized to achieve a SAL 106. A range of dressing sizes between 25cm2 and 220cm2 is available.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and biological interactions of a wound dressing, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes
The device is a wound dressing that aids in wound healing by maintaining a moist environment, absorbing exudate, and assisting autolytic debridement. These functions directly contribute to the treatment of medical conditions (wounds), classifying it as a therapeutic device.

No
The device, KA01 Chitosan Wound Dressing, is used for managing wounds by absorbing exudate and maintaining a moist environment for healing, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "sterile non-woven chitosan dressing comprising 100% chitosan fibers," which is a physical wound dressing, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Definition of IVD: An In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device is a medical device that is used to perform tests on samples such as blood, urine, or tissue to detect diseases or other conditions. These tests are performed outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description: The KA01 Chitosan Wound Dressing is a physical dressing applied to the body to manage wounds. It absorbs exudate and forms a gel to aid healing. It does not perform any diagnostic tests on samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the management of wounds, not for diagnosing any condition.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Metrics: The performance studies and key metrics described are related to the physical properties and safety of the dressing (absorbency, biocompatibility, sterilization), not diagnostic performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, etc.

The KA01 Chitosan Wound Dressing is a therapeutic medical device, specifically a wound dressing.
