## Indications for Use

Dynarex Sterile Lubricating Jelly is a medical device intended for medical purposes, to lubricate body orifices to facilitate entry of diagnostic or therapeutic devices when a sterile field is required.

## Device Story

Dynarex Sterile Lubricating Jelly is a clear, greaseless, water-soluble lubricant. It is applied to body orifices to reduce friction during the insertion of diagnostic or therapeutic medical devices. The product is provided in sterile foil packs (3g, 5g) or tubes (2oz, 4oz). It is intended for use by healthcare professionals in clinical settings requiring a sterile field. The jelly facilitates device entry, potentially increasing patient comfort and reducing trauma during procedures. It is formulated with purified water, carbomer thickeners, and preservatives (methylparaben/propylparaben).

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Evidence includes physical testing (viscosity, pH), preservative effectiveness testing, sterility testing, and comprehensive biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993 (in-vitro cytotoxicity, implantation, irritation, hypersensitivity, and systemic toxicity). All tests passed.

## Technological Characteristics

Water-soluble gel containing purified water, carbomer thickeners, and methylparaben. Packaged in plastic/film laminate. Sterilized via gamma irradiation (ISO/AAMI 11137, Vdmax25, SAL 10^-6). Biocompatibility per ISO 10993.

## Regulatory Identification

A patient lubricant is a device intended for medical purposes that is used to lubricate a body orifice to facilitate entry of a diagnostic or therapeutic device.

Dear Mr. Consaga:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
