The device is intended for the local management of exuding wounds, which addresses a health condition (wounds) and is used for therapeutic purposes.
No
Explanation: The device is described as a wound dressing intended for the local management of existing wounds. There is no mention of it being used to identify or analyze a medical condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical wound dressing composed of a calcium alginate pad and a film backing, indicating it is a hardware medical device, not software.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body. They are used to diagnose diseases or other conditions, or in the cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease. Examples include blood tests, urine tests, and genetic tests.
- This device is a wound dressing. It is applied directly to the wound for local management and protection. It does not involve the examination of a specimen from the body to provide diagnostic information.
The description clearly indicates it's a topical wound care product, not a diagnostic tool.

Dear Dr. Dick:
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 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).
