No
The summary describes a wound dressing and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section lists multiple medical conditions and applications (e.g., venous stasis ulcers, pressure sores, post-operative incisions) that the device is designed to treat or manage, which is characteristic of a therapeutic device.

No
The device, Bioderm Foam Wound Dressing, is intended for therapeutic purposes like dressing wounds and ulcers, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states "Bioderm Foam wound Dressing," indicating a physical, hardware-based medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended uses listed are for treating various types of wounds and providing drainage for tubes. These are applications directly on or in contact with the body for therapeutic or protective purposes.
  • Device Description: "Bioderm Foam wound Dressing" describes a physical dressing applied externally.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the key characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) in vitro (outside the body).
    • Providing information about a patient's health status, disease, or condition based on the analysis of these samples.
    • Using reagents, calibrators, or control materials.

IVDs are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body to diagnose, monitor, or screen for diseases or conditions. This device is a wound dressing, which is a therapeutic and protective device applied to the body.

Re: K973429 Bioderm Foam Wound Dressing Regulatory Class: Unclassified Product Code: KMF Dated: September 5, 1997 Received: September 10, 1997

Dear Mr. Worthley:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act). You may, therefore, market your device subject to the general controls provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) and the following limitations:

  • This device may not be labeled for use on third degree burns. 1.
  • This device may not be labeled as having any accelerating effect on the rate 2. of wound healing or epithelization.
  • This device may not be labeled as a long-term, permanent, or no-change 3. dressing, or as an artificial (synthetic) skin.
  • This device may not be labeled as a treatment or a cure for any type of 4. wound.

The labeling claims listed above would be considered a major modification in the intended use of the device and would require a premarket notification submission (21 CFR 807.81). The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual

registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practices, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval) it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Title 21. Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) for Medical Devices: General GMP regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic GMP inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4595. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or 301-443-6597 or at its internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsmamain.html.
