Intended Use
SPOROX® II has the same intended use as SPOROX®. SPOROX® II is intended to be used as a ready-to-use liquid chemical sterilant for the sterilization or high level disinfection of heat sensitive medical equipment for which alternative methods of terminal reprocessing are not suitable or available. SPOROX® II Sterilizing & Disinfecting Solution is a ready to use liquid chemical germicide. The product is a 7.5% nominal hydrogen peroxide solution buffered with phosphoric acid. The minimum effective concentration (MEC) is 6%. SPOROX II ® Sterilizing & Disinfecting Solution is intended for use in the high level disinfection of heat sensitive medical equipment using the prescribed contact conditions. Devices must be soaked for 30 minutes at 20℃ to high level disinfect. SPOROX II® may be reused for up to 21 days in conjunction with the use of an appropriate chemical indicator strip.
Device Description
SPOROX® II is a nominal 7.5% hydrogen peroxide solution, buffered with phosphoric acid. Hydrogen peroxide, the active ingredient in SPOROX® II, exerts its germicide via a strong oxidation reaction with cellular components.

No
The document describes a chemical sterilant/disinfectant solution and its performance characteristics, with no mention of AI or ML technology.

No.
SPOROX® II is a chemical sterilant and high-level disinfectant used for reprocessing heat-sensitive medical equipment, not a device used for treating patients.

No

This device is a chemical sterilant and disinfectant used for medical equipment, not a diagnostic tool that identifies or assesses medical conditions.

No

The device is a liquid chemical sterilant and disinfectant, which is a physical substance, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that SPOROX® II is a "liquid chemical sterilant for the sterilization or high level disinfection of heat sensitive medical equipment." This describes a product used to clean and disinfect medical devices, not to perform diagnostic tests on biological samples.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the chemical composition and mechanism of action as a germicide.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment decisions based on biological markers.
    • Reagents or kits for laboratory testing.

Therefore, SPOROX® II is a disinfectant/sterilant for medical equipment, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Reckitt & Colman Inc. has conducted confirmatory testing that demonstrated SPOROX® II has equivalent antimicrobial efficacy to the predicate device, SPOROX®. The studies utilized appropriate AOAC and EPA methodology. The Company also conducted stability studies demonstrating that SPOROX® II like SPOROX® has a minimum of two years stability if unopened and stored according to label instructions, and that the product can be reused for up to 21 days when used at 20°C according to label instructions.

Additionally, as it did with SPOROX®, the Company conducted acute dermal toxicity, acute oral toxicity, primary eye irritation, primary skin irritation, skin sensitization, in-vitro hemolysis, neutral red uptake cyto toxicity assay, and 28 day repeat dose oral toxicity testing. These tests demonstrated that SPOROX® II has a substantially equivalent safety profile to SPOROX® for use as a liquid chemical sterilant and a high level disinfectant.

The Company confirmed compatibility with medical devices equivalent to the predicate device, by conducting a rigorous evaluation on a number of different plastics, metals, and elastomers commonly used in medical devices and noted in the product label. In addition, the Company determined compatibility with materials made with copper and brass which is consistent with FDA's Guidance on The Content and Format of Premarket Notification on [510(k)] Submissions for Liquid Chemical Sterilants and High Level Disinfectants. The materials were exposed to a SPOROX® II solution, containing 7.3% hydrogen peroxide content for 500 hours at 20℃ (equivalent to 1000 disinfectant cycles).
