The Procedure mask/Surgical mask is 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, provided non-sterile.
The proposed device is a three-layer, single-use, flat- pleated mask. The inner and outer layers of the mask are made of polypropylene nonwoven, and the middle layer is made of polypropylene melt-blown nonwoven. The proposed devices are available in two types, ear loop and tie-on. The ear loops are made of polyester and spandex, and the ties are made of polypropylene nonwoven. The ear loops/ties are used to secure the mask over the users' mouth and face. The nose clip is made of Iron and polypropylene. Users can adjust the nose piece according to the shape of the nose, and fix the mask on the bridge of the nose to prevent the mask from falling off. The ear loop masks are available in two size, 17.5×9.5 cm and 14.5×9 cm; the tie-on mask is available in one size, 17.5×9.5 cm. And the colors for the ear loop mask are blue and black; the color for the tie-on mask is blue. Both the ear loop and tie-on masks are available in level 3 masks based on ASTM F2100-19 due to the difference in gram weight of the mask body. The proposed device is provided in non-sterile.
This document is a 510(k) Summary for a medical device (Procedure mask/Surgical mask/Face mask). The information provided demonstrates that the device meets the acceptance criteria through non-clinical testing.

§ 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.
