Intended Use
Innovative Technologies Hydrucolloids & Intelligent Hydrocolloids can be used for the management of wounds including, minor scalds and burns, superficial wounds such as abrasions, lacerations and minor cuts and as a protective dressing for such uses as minor blisters. This wound dressing may also bo used under the care of a health care professional for such wounds as, partial - full thickness wounds i. o. artorial ulcers, venous ulcers and diabetic ulcers, post operative surgical wounds. donor sites. If at any time you are unsure of the above conditions or the type of wound consult a health care professional.

Device Description
Highly floxible and conformable gol formula dressings, which absorb wound exudate producing a soft, gel mass which allows pasy removal of the dressing roducing the potential for delicate peri- wound tissue damage during dressing changes. Innovative Technologies Intelligent wound dressings utilize an intelligent film which allows moisture to transpire the hydrocolloid whilst providing a barrier to water and bacteria

No
The document describes a wound dressing with a "gel formula" and an "intelligent film" for moisture management and barrier properties. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven algorithms. The term "intelligent" in this context refers to the material's physical properties, not computational intelligence.

No
The device is a wound dressing used for the management of various wounds, not a device that provides therapy for diseases or conditions.

No.

The device is described as a wound dressing, designed for the management and healing of wounds by absorbing exudate and providing a protective barrier. Its function is therapeutic, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical wound dressing made of hydrocolloid material, which is a hardware component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes a wound dressing for managing various types of wounds. This is a topical application for wound care, not a test performed on samples taken from the body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to diagnose or monitor a medical condition.
  • Device Description: The description details the physical properties and function of a wound dressing (absorbing exudate, providing a barrier). This aligns with a medical device for wound management, not an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device for wound care, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Oakes:

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:

    1. 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 dressing. 3. or as an artificial (synthetic) skin.
  • This device may not be labeled as a treatment or a cure for any type of wound. 4.

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.
