Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the device "Relieves the symptoms and discomfort of dry mouth, refresh, moisturize/hydrate, clean, soothe oral irritation and lubricate oral dryness." This indicates a therapeutic or palliative purpose, not a diagnostic one. There is no mention of identifying, diagnosing, or monitoring any medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a liquid oral rinse, which is a physical substance, 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 to relieve symptoms and discomfort of dry mouth, refresh, moisturize, clean, soothe oral irritation, and lubricate oral dryness. This is a therapeutic and symptomatic relief purpose, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device is an artificial saliva substitute applied to the oral cavity. It's a topical treatment, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to detect, measure, or analyze any substance or characteristic in a sample (like blood, urine, saliva, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on comparing the device's moisturizing and hydration properties to a predicate device, which aligns with its intended therapeutic use, not a diagnostic function.

In summary, the device's function is to provide relief and comfort for dry mouth symptoms by acting as an artificial saliva substitute. This falls under the category of a therapeutic or symptomatic treatment device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Comparison of Predicate Device to Proposed device

6

Indications for Use Discussion

The wording found in the indications for use statement of the proposed Hydris™ Oral Rinse is consistent with that of the legally marketed primary predicate device. Biotene® Dry Mouth Oral Rinse. While there are differences in the wording of the indications-foruse statement for primary predicate Biotene Dry Mouth Oral Rinse and the proposed device Hydris Oral Rinse™ both devices share the same intended use, namely to provide symptomatic relief/treatment of dry mouth. Both the subject and predicate devices are also OTC.

Technological Characteristic Discussion

The predicate and proposed devices utilize the same fundamental technology. The mode of action of Hydris™Oral Rinse is substantially equivalent to that of the predicate device. The chemical composition of the proposed Hydris™Oral Rinse is similar to the primary predicate device Biotene® Dry Mouth Oral Rinse. Both the proposed and predicate devices contain ingredients such as water. humectants or moisturizers, thickening/binding agents, buffering agents, sweeteners, flavor, surfactants and preservatives, and both Hydris™Oral Rinse and its primary predicate Biotene® Dry Mouth Oral Rinse are similar in design, ingredients and packaging. Below is a summary of the technological characteristics compared to the primary predicate device.

Summary of Technological Characteristics Compared to Predicate Device

7

Discussion of Differences

There are also several differences between the proposed device and its primary predicate.

In particular, the variations in formula/composition for Hydris™Oral Rinse from the primary predicate device are as follows:

  • Sweeteners: Both devices use aqueous solutions and a sweetener, such as ● xylitol, sucralose or sodium saccharin as the sweetener. The proposed device features sodium Saccharin and sucralose as sweeteners, while the primary predicate employs xylitol. While the sweeteners vary between the two, in both predicate and proposed devices,
    the sweeteners are used to create a plant flavoring system and were chosen for their compatibility with the formula and the flavor.

  • Rheology Modifiers: Cellulose gum (carboxymethylcellulose, or CMC) was ● chosen
    as a thickener/rheology modifier for the gel based on its significant history of use in dental, oral care and food products. Xanthan gum was chosen for the proposed device for similar reasons. The resulting viscosity in the proposed Hydris™Oral Rinse and its predicate Biotene® Dry Mouth Oral Rinse are similar in nature to the predicate device.

  • Preservatives: An intentional decision was made not to use parabens in the proposed device. Alternatively, cetylpyridinium chloride, was added as a preservative as it is compatible with the formula at the given pH range. The choice of a binary preservative system results in an adequately preserved formulation of the proposed device when compared to its primary predicate. Despite differences in formula ingredients, these ingredients share similar functional roles within the formulas of both the proposed and predicate devices.
    To address the ingredients included in the proposed device, but not found in the primary predicate, a reference device, MedActive Gel and Spray (K152201), was introduced as it is a dry mouth formulation which contains the ingredients not found in the primary predicate. The table below distinguishes the specific ingredients found in Biotene® Dry Mouth Oral Rinse from those identified in the reference device, MedActive Gel and Spray.
