The 510(k) summary describes a physical procedural mask and its performance characteristics, with no mention of AI or ML technology in its design, function, or testing.
No
The device is a procedural mask intended for infection control and protection from microorganisms and fluids, not for treating a disease or condition.
No
The device, a procedural mask, is intended for protection against microorganisms and body fluids. It does not analyze or interpret data to provide a medical diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical product (a mask with layers, earloops, and a nose piece) and the performance studies focus on physical properties and biological interactions, not software functionality.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
- Device Intended Use: The intended use of the PRECISION ECO™ Compostable / Plant Based Procedural Mask is to protect the wearer and others from the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. It is a barrier device used for infection control.
- Lack of Specimen Analysis: The device description and performance studies do not involve the analysis of any human specimens. The testing focuses on the physical properties and barrier effectiveness of the mask itself (filtration efficiency, blood penetration, etc.).
Therefore, based on the provided information, the PRECISION ECO™ Compostable / Plant Based Procedural Mask is a medical device, but it falls under the category of a personal protective equipment (PPE) or a barrier device for infection control, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Summary of Performance Studies
The performance requirements and test criteria are listed in TABLE V. The performance testing was conducted on production lots and on artificially aged samples. Accelerated aging was conducted per ASTM 1980-21: Standard Guide for Accelerated Aging of Sterile Barrier Systems and Medical Devices. The device met the acceptance criteria for both production lots and artificially aged samples.

§ 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.

FIGURE 1: DEVICE REPRESENTATIVE ILLUSTRATION (Black product 100195) Instructions for use for the mask are located on the box artwork and read as follows. Hold mask by ear loops with the nose clip at the top. Ensure the logo side or colored side is facing outward. Place one ear loop around each ear. Bend the nose clip to match the shape of the nose and ensure there are no gaps. While holding the nose clip at the bridge of your nose, pull the mask down under your chin. Properly dispose of the mask by touching only the ear loops

TABLE /V: MATERIALS COMPARISON TO PRIMARY PREDICATE DEVICE(S)
The difference in materials, nose piece material, and mask dimensions does not impact the safety and effectiveness of the subject device as the subject device's performance is equivalent to the Primary Predicate Device. As evident in TABLE IV, the base materials and configuration for each product color (black/white) are identical. The colorant is not influencing the performance of the device, due to the extremely low concentration present in the device.
The performance requirements and test criteria are listed in TABLE V. The performance testing was conducted on production lots and on artificially aged samples. Accelerated aging was conducted per ASTM 1980-21: Standard Guide for Accelerated Aging of Sterile Barrier Systems and Medical Devices. The device met the acceptance criteria for both production lots and artificially aged samples.
