More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the chemical and sterility properties of sterile water and saline solutions for wound cleansing and irrigation. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any computational analysis of data.

No.

The device is a wound and device cleansing solution that moistens, debrides, and cleans dermal wounds and is used for device irrigation. It does not perform a therapeutic function but rather aids in the cleansing process.

No

Explanation: The device description states its purpose is for moistening, debriding, and cleaning dermal wounds and for device irrigation. It does not mention any function related to diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "wound and device cleansing solution" and is offered in "various bottle and cup sizes," indicating it is a physical product (sterile water or saline) and 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 for moistening, debriding, and cleaning wounds and for device irrigation. This is a direct application to the body or medical devices, not for testing samples taken from the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The device is a sterile solution (water or saline) for wound and device cleansing. This aligns with a therapeutic or procedural use, not a diagnostic one.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the sterility and chemical composition of the solution itself, not on its ability to diagnose a condition.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device's function is entirely external and procedural.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Testing was performed on the Sterile Water for Irrigation to show conformance to the USP monograph for Water for Irrigation. These tests included endotoxin, total organic carbon, pH, chloride, sulfate, ammonia, calcium, carbon dioxide, and oxidizable substances. In addition to the aforementioned testing, as the product is being sold as "sterile", the product was tested accordingly. To achieve validation of sterility parameters, a VDmax study was conducted to determine irradiation parameters. The results of the VDmax study can be found on pages 14-6 through 14-27. A summary of all lots tested can be found in summary tables on page 14-3 and 14-4. As the sodium chloride used in the Sterile Normal Saline conforms to the USP monograph for Sodium Chloride, chemical analysis was not required to show conformance to the monograph.

Dear Mr. Reynolds:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you; however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Aqua Care & Accu-Rinse, Sterile Water & Sterile Normal Saline

8. Description of the device that is the subject for this premarket notification:

Aqua Care & Accu-Rinse, Sterile Water & Sterile Normal Saline device is a wound and device cleansing solution that is intended for moistening and debriding of dermal wounds and for device irrigation. The solution is either sterile water or sterile saline for irrigation and meets all of the associated requirements defined in the USP. The subject device is offered in various bottle and cup sizes.

9. Intended use and indication for use:

For Over-the-Counter Use: For moistening absorbent wound dressings and cleaning minor cuts, minor burns, superficial abrasions and minor irritations of the skin. Not For Injection.

For Prescription Use: For moistening absorbent wound dressings and for moistening, debriding and cleaning acute and chronic dermal lesions, such as Stage I-IV pressure ulcers, stasis ulcers, diabetic ulcers, foot ulcers, post-surgical wounds, first and second degree burns, cuts, abrasions and minor skin irritations and for device irrigation. Not For Injection.

10. Technological characteristics:

The mechanical action of fluid moving across the wound or device provides for the mechanism of action and aids in the removal of foreign objects such as dirt and debris.

11. Summary of testing:

Testing was performed on the Sterile Water for Irrigation to show conformance to the USP monograph for Water for Irrigation. These tests included endotoxin, total organic carbon, pH, chloride, sulfate, ammonia, calcium, carbon dioxide, and oxidizable substances. In addition to the aforementioned testing, as the product is being sold as "sterile", the product was tested accordingly. To achieve validation of sterility parameters, a VDmax study was conducted to determine irradiation parameters. The results of the VDmax study can be found on pages 14-6 through 14-27. A summary of all lots tested can be found in summary tables on page 14-3 and 14-4. As the sodium chloride used in the Sterile Normal Saline conforms to the USP monograph for Sodium Chloride, chemical analysis was not required to show conformance to the monograph.

12. Conclusion:

At this time, it is the belief of KSE Scientific that our candidate derives show substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. Due to the candidate device showing conformance to the prescribed monographs for each material, establishing the same irradiation parameters, indications of use, packaging materials, and biocompatibility, we have shown the equivalence to the predicate devices. A summary table can be found on the following page showing these substantiated claims.

This concludes the 510(k) Summary.
