Intended Use
The surgical face masks are intended to be worn to protect both the patient and healthcare personnel from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids and particulate material. These masks are intended for use in infection control practices to reduce the potential exposure to blood and body fluids. This is a single use, disposable device, provided non-sterile/sterile.
Device Description
The proposed devices are three-layer, flat pleated masks. A mask is composed of a mask body, a nose piece, two ear loops and two side tapes. The mask body is manufactured with three layers, the inner layer and the outer layer are made of spunbond polypropylene nonwoven fabric, and the middle layer is made of meltblown polypropylene nonwoven fabric. The proposed device is held in place over the user's mouth and nose by two elastic ear loops welded to the mask body. The elastic ear loops are knitted elastic loops (made of polyester and spandex). The nose piece is in the layers of face mask to allow the user to fit the face mask around their nose, which is a iron wire with polypropylene covering. In order to improve the wearing comfort, two side tapes are welded to the mask body along the width direction to cover the mask edges. The side tapes are made of spunbond polypropylene nonwoven fabric (the same material as the inner layer). The proposed device contains two models, and the structure, materials and dimensions of the two models are exactly the same except the status. Disposable Surgical Face Mask is provided non-sterile and Disposable Surgical Face Mask (Sterile) is provided sterile. They are both intended to be single use, disposable devices. The proposed devices can meet the requirements for the performance class of Level 3 specified in ASTM F2100.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and filtration capabilities of a surgical face mask, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
This device is a surgical face mask intended to protect against the transfer of microorganisms and body fluids, not to provide therapy or treatment for a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device is a surgical face mask intended to protect against the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. Its function is to provide a physical barrier, not to diagnose any condition.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical, multi-layer mask made of nonwoven fabrics, a nose piece, and ear loops. The performance studies focus on physical properties and material biocompatibility, not software functionality.

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 function performed in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description details the physical construction and materials of the mask, which are designed for filtration and barrier protection.
  • Performance Studies and Key Metrics: The performance studies and metrics focus on the mask's ability to filter particles and fluids, its breathability, and its safety for skin contact. These are all related to its function as a physical barrier.
  • No Mention of Diagnostic Testing: There is no mention of the device being used to test samples (like blood, urine, or tissue) or to provide diagnostic information about a patient's health status.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This surgical face mask does not perform any such function.

4. Device Description

The proposed devices are three-layer, flat pleated masks. A mask is composed of a mask body, a nose piece, two ear loops and two side tapes.

The mask body is manufactured with three layers, the inner layer and the outer layer are made of spunbond polypropylene nonwoven fabric, and the middle layer is made of meltblown polypropylene nonwoven fabric.

The proposed device is held in place over the user's mouth and nose by two elastic ear loops welded to the mask body. The elastic ear loops are knitted elastic loops (made of polyester and spandex).

The nose piece is in the layers of face mask to allow the user to fit the face mask around their nose, which is a iron wire with polypropylene covering.

In order to improve the wearing comfort, two side tapes are welded to the mask body along the width direction to cover the mask edges. The side tapes are made of spunbond polypropylene nonwoven fabric (the same material as the inner layer).

The proposed device contains two models, and the structure, materials and dimensions of the two models are exactly the same except the status. Disposable Surgical Face Mask is provided non-sterile and Disposable Surgical Face Mask (Sterile) is provided sterile. They are both intended to be single use, disposable devices.

The proposed devices can meet the requirements for the performance class of Level 3 specified in ASTM F2100.

5. Intended Use/Indication for Use

The surgical face masks are intended to be worn to protect both the patient and healthcare personnel from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids and particulate material.
