Intended Use
Prescription Use: "Polyver Silver Alginate Dressing" is indicated for the management of moderate to heavily exuding partial to full thickness wounds, including, postoperative wounds, leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, graft and donor sites. OTC Use: First aid to help in minor abrasions, minor lacerations, minor scrapes, minor scalds and minor burns
Device Description
"Polyver Silver Alginate Dressing (Prescription and OTC)" is a sterile, non-woven pad composed of a high G (guluronic acid) calcium alginate and silver particles, which releases silver ions within the dressing and absorbs wound exudate. As wound exudate is absorbed, the alginate forms a gel, which assists in maintaining a moist environment. The dressing may be used for periods up to 7 days, and can be removed intact during dressing changes The alginate material consists of silver that controls bacterial growth within the dressing. Based on in vitro laboratory testing, the silver has been shown to protect the dressing against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Enterococcus faecalis. Based on in vitro testing, the silver effectively reduces bacterial growth within the dressing for up to seven days. Use of this device should be discontinued completely after 7 days. No clinical benefit has been demonstrated regarding the effectiveness of silver in the subject dressing. The dressing has an off-white appearance and is available in the form of pad and in various different sizes packaged in pouches. All dressings have the exactly the same material, chemical, and physical properties and are different only in size. All dressings are sterilized and sold directly to users after sterilization by radiation using conditions validated following ISO 11137-2: 2006. Stability study shows the product has a shelf life of three years.

No
The device description focuses on the material properties and antibacterial action of a wound dressing, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

Yes
The device is a wound dressing designed to manage various types of wounds, which is a therapeutic function. It is intended to aid in healing and prevent infection, making it a therapeutic device.

No

The device is a wound dressing designed for management of exuding wounds and to control bacterial growth within the dressing, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device is a physical wound dressing made of alginate and silver particles, not a software program.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The "Polyver Silver Alginate Dressing" is a wound dressing applied externally to the body. Its function is to absorb wound exudate, maintain a moist environment, and control bacterial growth within the dressing itself.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the management of wounds, which is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the physical and chemical properties of the dressing and its interaction with wound exudate and bacteria on the dressing.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies described relate to biocompatibility and antibacterial activity of the dressing, not to analyzing patient specimens.

In summary, the device is a therapeutic wound care product, not a diagnostic tool that analyzes samples from the body.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Biocompatibility was evaluated per ISO 10993-1: 2009, and it was found that the subject device is as biocompatible as the predicate device. The following biocompatibility endpoints were considered: Cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5), Irritation & Sensitization (ISO 10993-10), Acute Systematic Toxicity (ISO 10993-11), Subacute Systematic Toxicity (ISO 10993-11), Material-Mediated Pyrogenicity (ISO 10993-11), Implantation (ISO 10993-6). Antibacterial activity was measured following AATCC 100-2004 for total of six clinical relevant bacteria to evaluate antibacterial preservative effectiveness. "Polyver Silver Alginate Dressing (Prescription and OTC)'' is effective (>99.99% reduction) for seven days for all six bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Enterococcus faecalis, within the dressing.
