Device Description
The Proposed device has one size 17.5 cm x 9.5 cm and two wear types of Ear Loops and Tie-On. They are available in blue and white colors and three barrier levels (Level 3) according to ASTM F2100:2019. The proposed Level 2 and Level 3 masks are the same product which can pass ASTM F2100-19 Level 2 & 3 at the same time; they are classified into level 3 just because of the marketing strategies. All the materials of proposed tie-on masks are included in ear loops masks. The outer layer, inner layer, middle melt-blown layer and PET coated iron wire nose clip of tie-on masks are exactly the same with ear-loop masks, the tie tapes of tie-on masks are same as the outer layer of white mask body but 3 layers folded and physically ultrasonic welding together. The proposed mask can form a physical barrier by being worn on the mouth and nose of medical staff to protect both the patient and healthcare personnel from the spread of microorganisms, blood and body fluids, and particulate materials. The proposed subject device, surgical face mask, operates by acting as a physical barrier. The barrier protects the medical staff, patient, and healthcare personnel from the spread of microorganisms, blood and body fluids, and particulate materials. The barrier goes over the mouth and nose of the user.

No
The device description and performance studies focus solely on the physical barrier properties and material characteristics of surgical face masks. There is no mention of any computational or data-driven components that would suggest the use of AI or ML.

No
The device is a surgical face mask intended to protect against transfer of microorganisms and body fluids by acting as a physical barrier, which is a preventive rather than a therapeutic function.

No

The device description clearly states its function as providing a physical barrier to protect against the transfer of microorganisms and body fluids. There is no mention of it being used to diagnose or detect medical conditions or diseases.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical surgical face mask made of materials like melt-blown layers and PET coated iron wire, which are hardware components. The performance studies also focus on physical properties like fluid resistance and filtration efficiency, not software metrics.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the masks are for protecting both the patient and healthcare personnel from the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. This is a physical barrier function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical properties and function of the mask as a barrier.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of the device being used to test samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or to provide information about a patient's health status or condition.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the physical barrier properties (fluid resistance, filtration efficiency, breathability) and safety (flammability, biocompatibility), which are relevant to a protective device, not a diagnostic one.

IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This surgical face mask does not fit that definition.
