The 510(k) summary describes a surgical gown made of fabric and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
No
The device is a surgical gown intended to protect healthcare workers from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate matter, not to treat a disease or condition.
No
Explanation: The device is a surgical gown, which is a protective barrier for healthcare workers, not a device used to diagnose medical conditions or diseases. Its purpose is to prevent the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate matter.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical gown made of fabric, 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 gowns are for protecting healthcare workers from the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate matter. This is a protective barrier function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the physical properties of the fabric and its ability to resist penetration. This aligns with a protective garment, not a diagnostic device.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the physical and biological safety of the gown itself (cytotoxicity, skin irritation, fluid/viral penetration, flammability), not on the accuracy or reliability of a diagnostic test.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not fit that description.

§ 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.
