Intended Use
The Disposable Surgical Mask is intended to be worn to protect both the patient and healthcare personnel from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids and particulate material. The Disposable Surgical Mask is intended for use in infection control practices to reduce the potential exposure to blood and body fluids. This is a single use, disposable device(s), provided non-sterile.
Device Description
Disposable Surgical Mask, Ear Loop Type, Size M and S is a single use, three-layer, flat-pleated mask with ear loops and a nose piece. The Disposable Surgical Mask is manufactured with three layers, of which the inner and outer layers are made of spun-bond polypropylene, and the middle layer is made of melt blown polypropylene filter. The ear loops are held in place over the users' mouth and nose by two elastic ear loops welded to the face mask. The latex free elastic ear loops are made of polyamide fibers and spandex. The nose piece in the layers of face mask allows the user to fit the face mask around their nose, which is made of core iron wire with halogen-free polyethylene covering. The Disposable Surgical Mask will be provided in blue of outside and white of inside. The Disposable Surgical Mask is provided non-sterile and for single use.

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

No.
The device is a disposable surgical mask intended for protection from microorganisms and fluids, not for treating a disease or condition.

No
The device is a surgical mask intended for protection against microorganisms and fluids, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical product made of materials like polypropylene, polyamide fibers, spandex, and iron wire. It is a tangible, disposable surgical mask, not a software application.

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 mask is for protecting against the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material by being worn on the face. This is a physical barrier function, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details the physical construction of the mask (layers, ear loops, nose piece). There is no mention of reagents, test strips, or any components used for analyzing biological samples.
  • 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 mask does not perform any such analysis.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the physical properties of the mask as a barrier (fluid resistance, filtration efficiency, breathability, flammability). These are relevant to its function as a protective covering, not as a diagnostic tool.

Therefore, the Disposable Surgical Mask described is a medical device, but it falls under the category of a personal protective equipment (PPE) or a barrier device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 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.

Dear Doris Dong:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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
