No
The device description and intended use clearly describe a traditional wound dressing with antimicrobial properties. There is no mention of any computational or analytical capabilities that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".
No.
The device is a dressing for various wounds and burns, not a device that itself delivers therapeutic action or treatment.
No
Explanation: The device is described as a wound dressing for exuding wounds, burns, and surgical wounds, intended to secure and prevent movement of a primary dressing and for wound packing. Its use is therapeutic and protective, not diagnostic.
No
The device description clearly states it is a sterile, single-use wound dressing consisting of gauze treated with a substance, indicating it is a physical medical device, 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 it's a wound dressing for external application to wounds, burns, and surgical sites. This is a topical application, not a test performed on samples taken from the body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to diagnose a condition.
- Device Description: The description confirms it's a gauze dressing treated with an antimicrobial agent. This aligns with a wound care product, not a diagnostic test kit or instrument.
- No mention of in vitro testing: There is no mention of analyzing samples, detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory procedures.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is to protect and treat wounds externally.

(a)
Identification. An occlusive wound dressing is a nonresorbable, sterile or non-sterile device intended to cover a wound, to provide or support a moist wound environment, and to allow the exchange of gases such as oxygen and water vapor through the device. It consists of a piece of synthetic polymeric material, such as polyurethane, with or without an adhesive backing. This classification does not include an occlusive wound dressing that contains added drugs such as antimicrobial agents, added biologics such as growth factors, or is composed of materials derived from animal sources.(b)

Dear Mr. Fucile:
Re:
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 dressing, 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.
