The summary describes a calcium alginate wound dressing and its biocompatibility testing. There is no mention of AI or ML technology.
Yes
The device is a wound dressing used for the management of various wounds, which falls under the definition of a therapeutic device as it treats or manages medical conditions.
No
The device description indicates it is a calcium alginate dressing used for wound management, not for diagnosing conditions. Its intended uses are for treating existing wounds like lacerations, abrasions, burns, and ulcers, which are therapeutic rather than diagnostic actions.
No
The device description clearly states "Algisite M - Calcium Alginate Dressing," indicating it is a physical wound dressing, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use describes the device as a wound dressing for managing various types of wounds on the skin. This is a topical application for treating a physical condition.
- Device Description: The device is described as a "Calcium Alginate Dressing," which is a type of material used for wound care.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not involve the analysis of such specimens.
- Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "Skin," which is the external surface of the body, not an internal sample.
The information provided clearly indicates that Algisite M is a wound care product applied externally to the body, which falls under the category of medical devices but not specifically In Vitro Diagnostics.

Summary of Performance Studies
Bio Compatibility
Cytotoxicity: An agar - overlay cytotoxicity test, utilizing a culture of mouse L929 cells, was conducted on the test article, Algisite M, in order to determine the potential for in vitro cytotxicity. After incubating at 37°C for 24 hours, the cell cultures were inspected for evidence of cytolysis. The sample of Algisite M and the negative control were non-toxic and the positive control toxic to L929 cells under the conditions of the test.
British Standard 5736 Part 8 Assessment of Skin Irritation: The test article, Algisite M, was evaluated according to British Standard 5736 "Evaluation of medical devices for biological hazards: Part 8 Method of test for skin irritation of solid medical devices". The test is designed to assess the irritation potential of the test material by its direct contact with rabbit skin for five consecutive days. Under conditions of this study, Algisite M, is considered non-irritant following 5day repeated application to rabbit skin.
Magnusson & Kligman Maximization Study in the Guinea Pig: This study was performed according to Safepharm Standards Protocol Number GM 09/83/85D and was designed to assess the contact sensitization potential of Algisite M. The test material produced a 0% (0/20) sensitization rate and was classified as a non-sensitizer to guinea pig skin.
Acute Systemic Toxicity of Saline Extracts of Calcium Alginate in The Mouse: The test article, Algisite M, was evaluated according to British Standard 5736 "Evaluation of medical devices for biological hazards: Part 3 Method of test for systemic toxicity; assessment of acute toxicity of extracts from medical devices". The results of the study will provide information on the acute toxic effects attributable to leachable inherent or extraneous substances of value in predicting the suitability of the test article for its intended use. A saline extract of calcium alginate passed the prescribed acute systemic toxicity test in the mouse.
Haemolysis: The test article, Algisite M, was evaluated using the U.S. National Formulay XIV method. The haemolysis value of Algisite M was found to be 4.45% by the above Blood compatibility haemolysis test.

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 2. wound healing or epithelization.
- This device may not be labeled as a long-term, permanent, or no-change dressing, or 3. as an artificial (synthetic) skin.
-
- This device may not be labeled as a treatment or a cure for any type of 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.
5
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.
