It is capable of delivering negative pressure wound therapy at a near-constant pressure level over several days without any required adjustments by the patient or clinician.
This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device called the "SNaP® Wound Care System." It describes modifications to an already cleared device, not a new device requiring a full efficacy study. As such, the information typically found in a study proving a device meets acceptance criteria, such as detailed clinical study results with specific sample sizes, ground truth establishment, adjudication methods, or multi-reader multi-case studies, is not present here.
Instead, the document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices through nonclinical, bench testing. The acceptance criteria are essentially met by showing the modified device performs similarly to the predicate devices and existing specifications, and that the changes do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.
Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text, with an emphasis on what is not applicable in this type of submission:

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Sample Size for Test Set: Not explicitly stated. The testing was nonclinical (bench testing), not a clinical trial with a "test set" of patients. The sample sizes would refer to the number of devices or components tested.
- Data Provenance: Not applicable in the context of clinical trial data. This refers to in-house laboratory testing of the device components and system.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
- Not applicable. This was a nonclinical submission. "Ground truth" in this context would refer to the established performance requirements and specifications for the device, likely determined by engineering and regulatory standards, and internal quality control. No external experts or medical professionals were involved in establishing "ground truth" for nonclinical bench testing results presented here.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- Not applicable. This was a nonclinical submission. Adjudication methods are typically relevant for clinical studies where expert consensus or review is needed to classify findings.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and the Effect Size
- No. An MRMC study was not done. This is a nonclinical submission for a wound care system, not an imaging device requiring human reader interpretation.
6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Was Done
- Not applicable. This is a hardware medical device, not an AI/algorithm-based diagnostic or therapeutic tool.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
- Engineering Specifications and Standardized Test Methods: For nonclinical bench testing, the "ground truth" is defined by established engineering design specifications, internationally recognized standards for medical devices (e.g., for materials, sterilization, pressure levels, and biocompatibility), and internal test protocols. The device's performance is compared against these predetermined specifications.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
- Not applicable. This submission does not involve an AI algorithm that requires a "training set."
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
- Not applicable. As there is no AI algorithm or training set, this question is irrelevant to this submission.
Summary of the Study (Bench Testing):
The "study" described in the 510(k) notification is a series of nonclinical, bench tests designed to demonstrate that minor design changes and additions to the SNaP Wound Care System do not alter its safety or effectiveness compared to its predicate devices. The modifications included a simplified reset feature, minor material/design changes for commercial scale production, and the addition of a Long Dressing Kit and a SNaP Plus Strap.
The testing covered:
- Device design verification at baseline and after 2-year accelerated aging.
- User requirements verification for the SNaP Plus Strap.
- Verification of 7-day use for the SNaP cartridges.
- Sterilization validation for the new dressing kit.
- Biocompatibility testing.
- Packaging and shelf life testing.
No clinical testing was performed. The collective results of these nonclinical tests formed the basis for concluding that the device meets established specifications and is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices, not raising new questions concerning safety or effectiveness. The removal of a contraindication for use on actively infected wounds was supported by comparison to other NPWT products and published clinical evidence (though not clinical evidence specifically generated for this submission).

IV. DEVICE DESCRIPTION [807.92(a)(4)]
SNaP® Wound Care System
The SNaP® Wound Care System ("SNaP System") is a non-powered, portable, singleuse, disposable Negative Pressure Wound Therapy ("NPWT") system that is intended for wound management via application of negative pressure to the wound or closed incision for removal of fluids, including wound exudate, irrigation fluids, and infectious materials. The SNaP System is based on the concept of forced expansion of volume to produce negative pressure at the wound bed or at the closed incision, utilizing dedicated constantforce springs that mechanically generate the negative pressure gradient. The SNaP System has no electrically powered parts and is disposable after use. It is capable of delivering negative pressure wound therapy at a near-constant pressure level over several days without any required adjustments by the patient or clinician.
V. INDICATIONS FOR USE [807.92(a)(5)]
SNaP® Wound Care System
The Indications for Use statements for the proposed SNaP System with the available cartridges [SNaP Cartridge (60cc), SNaP Cartridge with Reset (60cc), and SNaP Plus Cartridge (150cc)] are identical to those of the respective predicate devices:
● SNaP System with SNaP Cartridge [SNaP Cartridge (60cc) and SNaP Cartridge with Reset (60cc)]
The indications for use for the SNaP System with SNaP Cartridge (60cc) and SNaP Cartridge with Reset (60cc) are identical to those of the predicate SNaP System with SNaP Cartridge (K132080). The Indications for Use are as follows:
"The SNaP® Wound Care System is indicated for patients who would benefit from wound management via the application of negative pressure, particularly as the device may promote wound healing through the removal of excess exudate, infectious material and tissue debris. The SNaP® Wound Care System is indicated for removal of small amounts of exudate from chronic, acute, traumatic, subacute and dehisced wounds, partial-thickness burns, ulcers (such as diabetic, venous or pressure), surgically closed incisions, flaps and grafts."
{5}------------------------------------------------
● SNaP System with SNaP Plus Cartridge (150cc)
The SNaP System wtih SNaP Plus Cartridge indications for use are identical to those of the predicate SNaP System with SNaP Plus Cartridge (K142272). The Indications for Use are as follows:
"The SNaP® Wound Care System is indicated for patients who would benefit from wound management via the application of negative pressure, particularly as the device may promote wound healing through the removal of excess exudate, infectious material and tissue debris. The SNaP® Wound Care System is indicated for removal of exudate from chronic, acute, traumatic, subacute and dehisced wounds, partial-thickness burns, ulcers (such as diabetic, venous or pressure), surgically closed incisions, flaps and grafts."
As such, the proposed device and the predicate devices are substantially equivalent with respect to indications for use.
This 510(k) also includes information to support the removal of a contraindication for use of the SNaP System over actively infected wounds. This labeling modification was supported based on a comparison with other NPWT products that have the same intended use and similar technological characteristics as the proposed device, and are not contraindicated for use with actively infected wounds. Removal of this contraindication was also supported by reference to numerous medical publications that indicated that the risks of use did not clearly outweigh any possible benefit.
COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICES VI. [807.92(a)(6)]
The predicate SNaP System (K132080) has a 60cc capacity SNaP Cartridge (available in three configurations capable of generating 75mmHg, 100mmHg or 125mmHg of negative pressure) and the predicate SNaP System (K142272) has a 150cc capacity SNaP Plus Cartridge capable of generating 125mmHg of negative pressure. Both predicate devices are used with Spiracur's dressing kits: SNaP Dressing Kit, SNaP Foam Dressing Kit, and SNaP Bridge Dressing Kit as well as with Spiracur's SNaP SecurRing accessory.
The proposed device encompasses both cartridge capacity options (i.e., 60cc and 150cc) with the same pressure features as available in the predicate devices. Additionally, the proposed device is available for use with all aforementioned Spiracur dressing kits used by the predecessor predicate devices. The proposed device has minor design differences as compared to the existing Spiracur SNaP Systems predicate devices.
Compared with the SNaP Cartridge cleared with the SNaP System (K132080), the proposed SNaP Cartridge with Reset (60cc) has a more simplified design of the reset feature. The SNaP Cartridge with Reset (60cc) of the proposed SNaP System enables the user to purge air from the cartridge without having to disconnect the tube fitting.
The SNaP Plus Cartridge (150cc) of the proposed device has component modifications as compared to the predicate SNaP Plus Cartridge (K142272). These were minor material or design modifications primarily related to changing the components from prototype scale to commercial scale production.
{6}------------------------------------------------
510(k) SUMMARY
In addition to the identical dressing kits also used with the predicate systems, the proposed SNaP System incorporates a Long Dressing Kit. The Long Dressing Kit is a version of the commercial SNaP Foam Dressing Kit. The Long Dressing is used in the same way as does the SNaP Foam Dressing, cleared with the predicate SNaP Systems K132080 and K142272.
Finally, the proposed device includes addition of the SNaP Plus Strap which is intended to provide customers with the convenience of an additional product offering to secure the SNaP Plus Cartridge (150cc) to the patient. This optional SNaP Plus Strap is similar to the strap (SNaP Strap) available with the predicate SNaP Cartridge (60cc) (K132080).
VII. PERFORMANCE DATA [807.92(b)]
To support the device modifications covered by this premarket notification, additional testing was performed on the SNaP System to ensure conformance to design specifications and to support a determination of substantial equivalence to the predicate devices.
[807.92(b)(1)]
The nonclinical, bench testing performed included:
- Device design verification testing at baseline and after 2-years accelerated aging; ●
- . Device user requirements verification for the SNaP Plus Strap;
- Verification testing to support 7-day use of the SNaP cartridges;
- Sterilization validation of the additional dressing kit;
- Biocompatibility testing; and ●
- Packaging and shelf life testing.
[807.92(b)(2)]
No clinical testing was performed in support of this premarket notification.
[807.92(b)(3)]
The collective results of the nonclinical testing demonstrate that the materials chosen and the design of the SNaP Wound Care System meet the established specifications necessary for consistent performance during its intended use. In addition, the collective bench testing demonstrates that the SNaP Wound Care System does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness for negative pressure wound therapy when compared to the predicate devices.
{7}------------------------------------------------
VIII. CONCLUSIONS
This 510(k) premarket notification is for minor design changes, labeling modifications and addition of two components (Long Dressing and SNaP Plus Strap) to the SNaP Wound Care System previously cleared under K132080 and K142272. The modifications to the SNaP System do not raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness, as both the proposed device and the predicate devices have the same intended use, have been historically cleared for use in the same wound types, and utilize similar performance specifications and comparable technological features to achieve the same mechanism of action. The proposed Indications for Use statements for the SNaP System is identical to the FDA-cleared Indications for Use statements for the primary predicate devices. The removal of the contraindication for use on actively infected wounds is supported by comparison to labeling of other NPWT devices and published clinical evidence. Any differences in the technological characteristics between the proposed device as compared to the primary predicate devices do not raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness. The SNaP® Wound Care System subject of this 510(k) is substantially equivalent to the predicate Spiracur Inc. SNaP® Wound Care System cleared under K132080 and K142272.
