More Information

Not Found

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
The device is a surgical face mask intended for infection control by protecting against the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material; it does not directly treat or cure a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly states its purpose is to protect from microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material, and its function relates to filtration and fluid resistance. There is no mention of it being used to diagnose conditions or diseases.

No

The device description clearly outlines the physical components of a surgical face mask (polypropylene layers, nose clip, ear straps) and the performance studies focus on material properties and physical barriers, 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 against the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material, and for use in infection control practices. This is a physical barrier function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details the physical construction and materials of the mask. There is no mention of components or mechanisms for analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are designed to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such function.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the physical and filtration properties of the mask (fluid resistance, filtration efficiency, pressure, flammability, biocompatibility), which are relevant to its function as a barrier, not a diagnostic tool.

Therefore, the Surgical Face Masks described are not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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.
