No
The summary describes a standard hydrogel wound dressing and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

Yes
The device is a wound dressing intended for the local management of various types of wounds, which is a therapeutic function aimed at facilitating healing.

No
The device, "Dermaplex Hydrogel Wound Dressing," is described as a dressing for local management of various wounds and burns. Its function is to cover and protect wounds, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "solid hydrogel dressing covered with a polyester liner," indicating it is a physical product, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for the "local management of pressure ulcers, stasis ulcers, 1st and 2nd degree burns, and full and partial thickness wounds." This describes a therapeutic or wound care device applied directly to the body, not a device used to examine specimens from the body to diagnose or monitor a condition.
  • Device Description: The description of a "solid hydrogel dressing covered with a polyester liner" further confirms it's a topical wound dressing, not an in vitro diagnostic product.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), performing tests, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory analysis.

Therefore, the Dermaplex Hydrogel Wound Dressing is a medical device for wound care, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

VI. COMPARISON TO PREDICATE DEVICE

The Dermaplex Hydrogel Wound Dressing is similar in composition, function and intended use to the Curagel Hydrogel Wound Dressing (Kendall Healthcare Products Co.) and other legally marketed wound dressing products consisting of solid hydrogel.

Accordingly, Maxxim Medical, Inc. concluded that the Dermaplex Hydrogel Wound Dressing is as safe and effective for its intended use and performs at least as well as legally marketed predicate devices, such as the Curagel Hydrogel Wound Dressing.
