Intended Use
The Bioderm, Inc. foam dressing is an external wound dressing designed to help maintain a moist healing environment, manage exudate, and protect the wound from contamination. The dressing is indicated for the management of the following types of wounds: Partial and full-thickness wounds, moderate to heavily exudating wounds such as; lower extremity ulcers including; venous stasis ulcers, arterial ulcers, or mixed etiology (venous & arterial) and post surgical incisions, pressure sores, and diabetic foot ulcers. Partial thickness wounds such as; donor sites, abrasions, lacerations, and superficial burns. Other indications include; a drainage dressing for tracheostomy, G-tube, J-tube, Penrose drain, chest tube, or sump drain, as well as a secondary or cover dressing for packed wounds.
Device Description
The device has not changed from those approved under Bioderm, Inc. K982778 and consist of square, hydrophilic foam pads for wound care and square foam pads with a slit to fit around tracheostomy or gastrostomy tubes. The device provides a means to absorb exudate from draining wounds.
More Information

No
The summary describes a simple foam wound dressing and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities. The performance studies are standard biocompatibility tests for a material.

Yes
The device, a foam dressing, is intended for the management of various types of wounds, aiming to maintain a moist healing environment, manage exudate, and protect the wound from contamination. These actions are directly involved in the healing and treatment of injuries, classifying it as a therapeutic device.

No

Explanation: The device is described as an external wound dressing designed to help maintain a moist healing environment, manage exudate, and protect the wound from contamination. Its function is therapeutic and protective, not diagnostic.

No

The device description and performance studies clearly indicate that this is a physical wound dressing made of foam, not a software application.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as an external wound dressing for managing various types of wounds. This is a topical application for direct interaction with the wound, not for testing samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a foam pad designed to absorb exudate from draining wounds. This aligns with the function of a wound dressing, not an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) outside of the body to provide information about a patient's health status, disease, or condition.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide diagnostic information. This device is a therapeutic and protective dressing applied directly to the wound.

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

Nonclinical Testing: Test Article: Hydrophilic Polyurethane Foam HPF-L0562 & L0562-6 (Formerly Coded HPF/L52) Sponsor: Rynel Ltd. Inc., Boothbay, Maine Test Facility: Toxicon Laboratories
Primary Skin Irritation: The test article, HPF-L0562, was tested for its potential to produce primary dermal irritation after a single topical 24 hour application to the skin of albino rabbits. The test article is considered a non-irritant.
Kilgman Maximization Study (Sodium Chloride Extract): Based on the standards set by the study protocol, HPF-L0562, exhibited no reaction to the challenge (0% sensitization). Therefore, as defined by the scoring system of Kilgman, this is a Grade I reaction and the test article is classified as having a weak allergic potential. A Grade I sensitization rate is not considered significant according to Magnusson and Kligman (1969, 1970).
Systemic Injection Test: This test is considered negative based on standards set by the study protocol. The extract of the test article, HPF/L62, did not show a significantly greater biological reaction than the control extract, when tested in albino Swiss mice.
14 Day Repeated Intravenous Toxicity Study-Subchronic: The results indicate that the test article, HPF-L0562, is not toxic according to the procedure described in the study protocol when administered by the intravenous injection each weekday (5 days/week) for 14 days. The lack of toxicity was based upon clinical observations and histopathological assessment of selected tissue.
Cytotoxicity-Agar Diffusion Test: No biological reactivity (Grade 0) was observed in the L929 mammalian cells by 48 hours post exposure to the test article. The observed cellular response obtained from the positive control article (Grade 4) and the negative (Grade 0) confirmed the suitability of the test system. The test article is considered non-cytotoxic and meets the requirements of the Agar Diffusion Test, USP XXIII.
Hemolysis Rabbit Blood: The test article, HPF/L62, is considered non-hemolytic at 0.12% Hemolysis, under the experimental conditions employed.

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.
  • This device may not be labeled as having any accelerating effect on the rate of 2. wound healing or epithelization.
    1. 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.
