The summary describes a simple antibacterial bandage and contains no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts like image processing, training data, or performance metrics associated with AI/ML algorithms.
No
The device, antibacterial adhesive bandages, is used to prevent infection in minor cuts and scrapes, which is a preventive rather than a therapeutic function.
No
The device, antibacterial adhesive bandages, is used for preventing infection in minor cuts and scrapes, which is a treatment or protective function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device is described as "Antibacterial Adhesive Bandages," which are physical products applied to the skin. This clearly indicates a hardware component (the bandage itself) and not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for topical application to the skin to help prevent infection in minor cuts and scrapes. This is a direct application to the body surface for a therapeutic/preventative purpose.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The description of this device does not involve any such specimen analysis.
Therefore, the device described is a topical medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

Dear Dr. Feinstein:
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 (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, 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, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) 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.
