The Disposable 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 face 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(s), provided non-sterile.
The Disposable Surgical Face Mask is blue color, single use, that-folded masks with nose piece and ear loops or ties. The blue colorant is polypropylene (PP) master batch.
The body of the mask is composed of three layers: the inner and outer layers are made of polypropylene spun-bond nonwoven fabric, and the middle layer is made of polypropylene melt blown non-woven fabric. The nose clip is made of galvanized iron wire coated by polypropylene (PP), ear loop is made of Nylon and Spandex, and the ties are made of polypropylene spun-bond nonwoven fabric.
The size of surgical face masks is 17.5*9.5cm with tolerance±5%, the length of the ear loop is about 15.5cm to 16.5cm, and the length of the ties is 40 cm.
The disposable surgical face masks are sold non-sterile and are intended to be single use, disposable devices.
The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a Disposable Surgical Face Mask. This type of medical device is generally subject to performance testing against established standards, rather than clinical studies requiring expert interpretation or AI/algorithm performance. Therefore, many of the requested elements (like MRMC studies, details on experts, ground truth for training sets, etc.) are not applicable to this specific device submission.
Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them, based on the provided text:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The device is a non-powered, non-software-driven medical device (disposable surgical face mask). Its performance is evaluated against recognized industry standards for surgical masks.
| Test Methodology | Purpose | Acceptance Criteria (ASTM F2100 Level 3) | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fluid Resistance (ASTM F1862) | To assess resistance to penetration by synthetic blood. | 29 out of 32 pass at 160 mmHg for level 3 | Pass: 32 out of 32 pass at 160 mmHg, 3 lots |
| Particulate Filtration Efficiency (ASTM F2299) | To demonstrate functionality and efficiency of materials in filtering particulates. | ≥ 98% | Pass: Average 99.1% |
| Bacterial Filtration Efficiency (ASTM F2101) | To demonstrate functionality and efficiency in filtering bacteria. | ≥ 98% | Pass: Average 99.5% |
| Differential Pressure (EN 14683 Annex C) | To measure breathability. |
§ 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.
