Intended Use

3M™ VFlex™Health Care Particulate Respirator and Surgical Mask 1805/1805S is intended to be worn by operating room personnel during surgical procedures to protect both the surgical patient and the operating room personnel from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material.

Device Story

3M VFlex 1805/1805S is N95 particulate respirator and surgical mask; designed for use by operating room personnel during surgical procedures. Device acts as physical barrier to reduce wearer exposure to airborne particles (e.g., from electrocautery or laser surgery) and provides fluid resistance against blood and infectious materials. Construction includes multi-layer polypropylene spunbond filter web, aluminum nose-clip, steel staples, and polyisoprene headbands. Device is flat-fold style; provides >95% filtration efficiency against non-oil aerosols and >99% bacterial filtration efficiency. Protects both patient and clinician by preventing transfer of microorganisms and body fluids. No natural rubber latex components.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance validated via NaCl load testing (<5.0%), bacterial filtration efficiency (>99% per ASTM F2101), fluid resistance (ASTM F1862), and flammability testing (16 CFR Part 1610). NIOSH N95 certification (84A-5469, 84A-5470) confirms filtration performance.

Technological Characteristics

N95 particulate respirator/surgical mask. Materials: multi-layer polypropylene spunbond, aluminum nose-clip, steel staples, polyisoprene headbands. Flat-fold form factor. Fluid resistance: 120 mmHg (ASTM F1862). Bacterial filtration efficiency: >99% (ASTM F2101). Filtration: >95% against non-oil aerosols (42 CFR 84). Flammability: Class I (16 CFR 1610). Latex-free.

Indications for Use

Indicated for operating room personnel during surgical procedures to protect patient and personnel from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

Surgical apparel are devices that are intended to be worn by operating room personnel during surgical procedures to protect both the surgical patient and the operating room personnel from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. Examples include surgical caps, hoods, masks, gowns, operating room shoes and shoe covers, and isolation masks and gowns. Surgical suits and dresses, commonly known as scrub suits, are excluded.

Special Controls

*Classification.* (1) Class II (special controls) for surgical gowns and surgical masks. A surgical N95 respirator or N95 filtering facepiece respirator is not exempt if it is intended to prevent specific diseases or infections, or it is labeled or otherwise represented as filtering surgical smoke or plumes, filtering specific amounts of viruses or bacteria, reducing the amount of and/or killing viruses, bacteria, or fungi, or affecting allergenicity, or it contains coating technologies unrelated to filtration (e.g., to reduce and or kill microorganisms). Surgical N95 respirators and N95 filtering facepiece respirators are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9, and the following conditions for exemption:(i) The user contacting components of the device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible. (ii) Analysis and nonclinical testing must: (A) Characterize flammability and be demonstrated to be appropriate for the intended environment of use; and (B) Demonstrate the ability of the device to resist penetration by fluids, such as blood and body fluids, at a velocity consistent with the intended use of the device. (iii) NIOSH approved under its regulation. (2) Class I (general controls) for surgical apparel other than surgical gowns and surgical masks. The class I device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9.
