The Stryker Steri-Shield 8 disposables, including all hood and toga models, are components of the Stryker Steri-Shield 8 Personal Protection System and are intended to protect the patient, healthcare personnel, and operating room personnel against contamination, exposure of infectious bodily fluids, and the transfer of microorganism and particulate material. The Stryker Steri-Shield 8 disposables are sterile, disposable, single-use only devices.
The Stryker Steri-Shield 8 Surgical Protective Equipment consist of Stryker Steri-Shield 8 Surgical Hoods and Steri-Shield 8 Surgical Togas.
The Stryker Steri-Shield 8 Surgical Hood is a single piece device that covers the user's head, neck, and shoulder region and is intended to be worn with commercially available sterile surgical gowns. The Steri-Shield 8 Hoods are available with Standard (NPA), Peel Away (PA) and Anti-Reflective (AR) face shield options.
The Stryker Steri-Shield 8 Surgical Togas are a single piece device that covers the user's head, neck, arms, torso, and upper legs region. The Stryker Steri-Shield 8 Surgical Togas is offered in three configurations: Steri-Shield 8 Pullover Togas, Steri-Shield 8 Zippered Togas, and Steri-Shield 8 Tie Back Togas.
The Stryker Steri-Shield 8 Surgical Hoods and Togas is a medical device intended to protect the patient, healthcare personnel, and operating room personnel against contamination, exposure to infectious bodily fluids, and the transfer of microorganisms and particulate material. The device is sterile, disposable, and for single-use only.

§ 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.
