Intended Use

ACTABOND Topical Skin Adhesive is intended for topical application only, to hold closed easily approximated skin edges of wounds from surgical incisions from minimally invasive surgery, and simple, thoroughly cleansed, trauma-induced lacerations. ACTABOND Topical Skin Adhesive may be used in conjunction with, but not in place of, deep dermal stitches.

Device Description

ACTABOND Topical Skin Adhesive is a skin closure device that is comprised of a 2-octyl cyanoacrylate liquid adhesive formulation containing D & C Violet #2. The liquid adhesive is supplied sterile within a single use dispensing applicator, which is used to deliver the adhesive to the skin. Once applied, the liquid adhesive polymerizes to form a thin film with strong bonding and tensile properties. In vitro studies have shown that following application, ACTABOND Adhesive acts as a barrier to prevent bacterial penetration. The barrier properties of ACTABOND Adhesive have not been studied in clinical or animal models.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for the ACTABOND Topical Skin Adhesive. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than presenting a study with strict acceptance criteria and performance metrics for a novel AI or diagnostic device. Therefore, much of the requested information regarding AI-specific assessments (MRMC studies, stand-alone performance, training set details) is not applicable or cannot be extracted from this type of regulatory submission.

However, I can extract information related to the performance testing performed to demonstrate equivalence to the predicate device.

Here's the breakdown of the information that can be extracted from the provided text:

Animal Studies:

A porcine study was conducted to compare the safety and effectiveness of ACTABOND Topical Skin Adhesive to the predicate device in a surgically induced, full thickness, linear wound healing model. This study evaluated acute wound closure, maintenance of wound closure, and support of normal wound healing for 14 days. A histological evaluation was also performed to evaluate healing after 14 days.

The results of this study demonstrated no remarkable differences between the subject and predicate device study groups for clinical wound observations and histological analysis. Both groups maintained wound closure, supporting a normal wound healing process without delay and showed complete epidermal re-epithelialization at 14 days.

Biocompatibility:

The biocompatibility of the ACTABOND Topical Skin Adhesive device has been evaluated according to the studies recommended in AAMI/ANSI/ISO 10993-1:2009/(R)2013, "Biological evaluation of medical devices - part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process" for a device intended for prolonged contact (24 hours – 30 days) with breached skin. The results of these studies, listed below, demonstrate that the ACTABOND Topical Skin Adhesive device is safe for its intended use.

  • Cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5:2009(R)2014)
  • Irritation/Intracutaneous reactivity (ISO 10993-10:2010)

8. Conclusions

The ACTABOND Topical Skin Adhesive device and predicate device, DERMABOND NX Topical Skin Adhesive (K100423), have identical indications for use, function according to the same fundamental scientific technology, and are closely comparable with regard to device design. Minor differences between the ACTABOND device and the predicate with regard to the primary package for the adhesive, the sterilization method for the adhesive in its primary package, and the mechanism for device actuation do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness. In vitro and in vivo testing results provided in the 510(k) submission demonstrate that the ACTABOND device meets its specifications and is substantially equivalent to the DERMABOND NX Topical Skin Adhesive predicate.
