Intended Use
The ComfortGuard Surgical Gown, i600, Film Reinforced is a single use surgical gown intended to protect surgical patients and operating room personnel from the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material.
Device Description
The ComfortGuard Surgical Gown, i600, Film Reinforced (i90-82xx-S1) consists of a multi-layer in the critical zones (SMS & Film Lamination), single layer of SMS (polyolefin nonwoven) in the noncritical zones in the body and sleeve, single layer of SMS (polyolefin nonwoven) in the back panel with a lower basis weight SMS. The ComfortGuard Surgical Gown, i600, Film Reinforced (i90-82xx-S1) is provided with neck binder, hook and loop tabs, belt ties, removable transfer accessory, and cuffs. There are eight regular sizes and two special sizes (A-frame) available for each design in both sterile and nonsterile packaging configurations, including: S, M, L, XL, XXL, L-XLONG, XXL-XLONG, XXL-XLONG, Aframe L-XLONG, A-frame XL-XLONG. The two special sizes (A-frame L-XLONG, A-frame XL-XLONG) have much wider bottom that are designed for sitting procedures. And the reinforcement still covers the critical zone as in the other product codes. The ComfortGuard Surgical Gown, i600, Film Reinforced (i90-82xx-S1) has been tested according to AAMI PB70:2012 and met the AAMI Level 4 liquid barrier performance requirements. It is constructed with or without thumb-hooks in cuffs, with pleats in the back panels, with a lower basis weight SMS in the back panel. The addition of thumb-hooks, back pleats, and the use of a lighter basis weight material in the back panels does not impact the performance of the gown in accordance with AAMI PB70 requirement.

No
The 510(k) summary describes a physical surgical gown and its material properties and performance testing. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would suggest the use of AI or ML.

No

Explanation: The device is a surgical gown intended to protect against the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material, not to treat or cure a medical condition.

No
The device is a surgical gown, which is a protective apparel. Its intended use is to protect patients and personnel from the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material, not to diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device is a surgical gown, which is a physical product made of materials like SMS and film lamination, not software. The description details its physical construction, materials, and performance testing related to barrier properties and physical strength.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to protect surgical patients and operating room personnel from the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. This is a barrier function, not a diagnostic function.
  • Device Description: The description details the physical construction and materials of a surgical gown.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of any components, reagents, or processes that would be used to perform a diagnostic test on a sample from the human body.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on physical properties, barrier performance, biocompatibility, and flammability – all relevant to a protective garment, not a diagnostic device.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This surgical gown does not perform any such function.

§ 878.4040 Surgical apparel.

(a)
Identification. Surgical apparel are devices that are intended to be worn by operating room personnel during surgical procedures to protect both the surgical patient and the operating room personnel from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. Examples include surgical caps, hoods, masks, gowns, operating room shoes and shoe covers, and isolation masks and gowns. Surgical suits and dresses, commonly known as scrub suits, are excluded.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for surgical gowns and surgical masks. A surgical N95 respirator or N95 filtering facepiece respirator is not exempt if it is intended to prevent specific diseases or infections, or it is labeled or otherwise represented as filtering surgical smoke or plumes, filtering specific amounts of viruses or bacteria, reducing the amount of and/or killing viruses, bacteria, or fungi, or affecting allergenicity, or it contains coating technologies unrelated to filtration (e.g., to reduce and or kill microorganisms). Surgical N95 respirators and N95 filtering facepiece respirators are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9, and the following conditions for exemption:(i) The user contacting components of the device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(ii) Analysis and nonclinical testing must:
(A) Characterize flammability and be demonstrated to be appropriate for the intended environment of use; and
(B) Demonstrate the ability of the device to resist penetration by fluids, such as blood and body fluids, at a velocity consistent with the intended use of the device.
(iii) NIOSH approved under its regulation.
(2) Class I (general controls) for surgical apparel other than surgical gowns and surgical masks. The class I device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9.
