The 3M™ V.A.C. Veraflo Cleanse Choice™ Dressing Kit is used as part of an integrated wound management system that provides 3M™ Veraflo™ Therapy, which consists of negative pressure wound therapy (3M™ V.A.C.® Therapy) with an instillation option.
· 3M™ V.A.C.® Therapy in the absence of instillation is intended to create an environment that promotes wound healing by secondary or tertiary (delayed primary) intention by preparing the wound bed for closure, promoting granulation tissue formation and perfusion, and by removing exudate and infectious material.
· The instillation option is indicated for patients who would benefit from vacuum assisted drainage and controlled delivery of topical wound treatment solutions and suspensions over the wound bed. It provides hydromechanical removal of infectious materials, non-viable tissue and wound debris which reduces the number of surgical debridements required, while promoting granulation tissue formation, creating an environment that promotes wound healing.
The 3M™ V.A.C. Veraflo Cleanse Choice™ Dressing Kit with and without instillation is indicated for patients with chronic, acute, traumatic, sub-acute and dehisced wounds, partial- thickness burns, ulcers (such as diabetic, pressure and venous insufficiency), flaps and grafts.

The 3M™ Veraflo™ Cleanse Choice Complete™ Dressing Kit with and without instillation is indicated for patients with chronic, acute, traumatic, sub-acute and dehised wounds, partial- thickness burns, ulcers (such as diabetic, pressure and venous insufficiency), flaps and grafts.
Both dressing kits are intended to be used with the 3M™ V.A.C.® Ulta Therapy Unit and its associated canisters and cassette for the delivery of 3M™ Veraflo™ Therapy that provides Negative Pressure Wound Therapy coupled with controlled delivery and drainage of topical wound treatment solutions and suspensions over the wound bed. The dressing kits provide sterile disposable components needed for delivery of 3MTM VerafloTM Therapy.
Each kit contains a wound dressing with 10 mm diameter holes specifically designed for use with 3M™ Veraflo™ Therapy (either the 3M™ V.A.C. Veraflo™ Cleanse Choice™ or the 3MTM Veraflo™ Cleanse Choice Complete™ Dressing), an occlusive drape covering the dressing (either the 3MTM V.A.C. Advanced Drape or the V.A.C. Dermatac™ Drape), a tubing set for connecting the dressing to the negative pressure and instillation pumps (either the 3M™ V.A.C. VeraT.R.A.C.TM Pad or the 3M™ VeraT.R.A.C. Duo™ Tube Set, depending on dressing size) and a wound measuring ruler.
The subject dressings differ only in the number of dressing pieces provided in the kit, in the drape materials of construction and in the method of sterilization:
- . The 3M™ V.A.C. Veraflo™ Cleanse Choice™ Dressing Kit is gray in color, has three dressing layers (one with holes, one thin cover layer and one thick cover layer without holes), has a drape constructed of a polyurethane film with acrylic adhesive and is sterilized by irradiation.
- The 3M™ Veraflo™ Cleanse Choice Complete™ Dressing Kit is blue in color, has only one ● dressing piece (which consists of a combination of the layer with holes and the thin cover layer without holes in the 3M™ V.A.C. Veraflo™ Cleanse Choice™ Dressing), has a drape constructed of a polyurethane film with acrylic adhesive and a perforated silicone layer, and is sterilized by ethylene oxide (ETO).
Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them, based on the provided FDA 510(k) summary for the 3M™ V.A.C. Veraflo Cleanse Choice™ Dressing Kit and 3M™ Veraflo™ Cleanse Choice Complete™ Dressing Kit.
It's important to note that this document is an FDA 510(k) summary for a medical device (dressing kit), not an AI/ML powered device. Therefore, many of the typical questions for AI/ML device studies regarding ground truth establishment, expert adjudication, MRMC studies, and training sets are not applicable to this type of submission. The performance described here relates to the physical and functional characteristics of dressings in wound care, not algorithmic performance.
Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (Not applicable for AI/ML specific criteria)
The document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices for a dressing kit. The "acceptance criteria" here are implied by the claim of substantial equivalence and are met through comparative analysis and leveraging existing clinical data for the predicate device, rather than new, large-scale clinical trials with pre-defined statistical endpoints for novel performance metrics.
Implicit Acceptance Criteria (Met by comparison and leveraging existing data):
- Functional Equivalence: The subject dressings perform the intended functions (negative pressure wound therapy, instillation, hydromechanical removal of infectious materials, non-viable tissue, and wound debris) comparably to the predicate devices.
- Material Equivalence/Safety: The materials of construction, physical properties, and sterilization methods are either identical or demonstrably safe and effective.
- Shelf-Life: The device maintains its stability and performance over the proposed shelf-life.
- Biocompatibility & Sterility: Meets all relevant FDA biocompatibility requirements and is sterile at a SAL of 10^-6.
- Clinical Efficacy (Leveraged): The device, in conjunction with the therapy unit, effectively promotes wound healing, granulation tissue formation, and removal of undesirable wound materials, as demonstrated by prior clinical data for the predicate device.
Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance (as inferred from the document):
| Acceptance Criteria Category | Specific Criterion (Implied) | Reported Device Performance (Summary from document) |
|---|---|---|
| Functional Equivalence | The subject dressings ("Cleanse Choice Complete" and "Cleanse Choice") demonstrate equivalent performance in delivering Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) and Instillation Therapy, including hydromechanical removal of infectious materials, non-viable tissue, and wound debris, compared to their respective predicates. | Bench tests and evaluations (comparison of materials, physical properties, finite element modeling of strain profiles, foam changes under negative pressure) were conducted. These tests "indicate that the two dressings are functionally equivalent" and that literature-reported clinical data for one dressing is "also applicable" to the other. |
| Material & Design Equivalence | Materials of construction, dressing dimensions/geometry, and system components (when used with the V.A.C. Ulta Therapy Unit) are substantially equivalent or justified. | 3M™ V.A.C. Veraflo Cleanse Choice™ Dressing Kit: "Same as predicate" for patient-contacting materials, NPWT system design, operating principles. Differences noted in drape (one has perforated silicone layer) but deemed non-significant for equivalence. 3M™ Veraflo™ Cleanse Choice Complete™ Dressing Kit: "Same as predicate" for patient-contacting materials, NPWT system design, operating principles. Differences in color and 1-piece vs 3-piece design, but otherwise equivalent. |
| Sterilization | The devices are sterile and the sterilization method is validated. | No change in design impacting sterilization; data from predicates leveraged. Sterilized by irradiation (Cleanse Choice) or ethylene oxide (Cleanse Choice Complete). Must be sterile at a SAL of 10^-6 (general requirement, met by leveraging predicate data). |
| Biocompatibility | The patient-contacting materials are biocompatible. | No change in design impacting biocompatibility; data from predicates leveraged. All relevant FDA biocompatibility requirements met (general requirement, met by leveraging predicate data). |
| Shelf-Life | The device maintains performance over its stated shelf-life. | Stability testing conducted on production equivalent samples accelerated aged to proposed shelf life (Two years). "Stability indicating parameters for delivery of hydromechanical removal... were within specification." |
| Clinical Efficacy (Hydromechanical Removal) | The device, when used as part of the 3M™ Veraflo™ Therapy system, provides hydromechanical removal of infectious materials, non-viable tissue, and wound debris, and promotes granulation tissue formation, reducing the need for surgical debridements. | A literature search identified 21 reference publications (177 patients) supporting hydromechanical removal and promotion of granulation tissue with the 3M™ V.A.C. Veraflo Cleanse Choice™ Dressing. The "functional equivalence" testing extends these findings to the "Cleanse Choice Complete" dressing. The report states: "This body of evidence supports that the adjunctive use of 3M™ V.A.C. Veraflo™ Therapy... can provide hydromechanical removal... and promote granulation tissue development." |

Promogran Prisma™ when used with ActiV.A.C.TM Negative Pressure Wound Therapy is intended for the management of exuding wounds. Under the supervision of a health care professional, Promogran Prisma™ with ActiV.A.C.™ Negative Pressure Wound Therapy may be used only for the management of:
- Diabetic ulcers
- Venous ulcers
- Pressure ulcers
- Partial-thickness burns
- Traumatic wounds healing by secondary intention
- Dehisced surgical wounds.
Compression therapy may only be used with Promogran Prisma™ under professional healthcare supervision. Compression therapy may not be used when Promogran Prisma™ is used with ActiV.A.C.TM Negative Pressure Wound Therapy.
3MTM Promogran Prisma™ is comprised of a sterile, freeze-dried composite of 44% oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC), 55% collagen and 1 % silver ORC. Silver ORC contains 25% w/w ionically bound silver.
It is a primary dressing that can be cut with scissors to fit the wound and used in combination with either a semiocclusive or non-occlusive secondary dressing. The dressing is hexagonal in shape, provided in two sizes (28 cm² and 123 cm²) that are packaged in a hexagonal thermoformed tray and sterilized by gamma irradiation.

After reviewing the provided document, it is not possible to describe the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria as requested.
The document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter and its associated summary for the PROMOGRAN PRISMA Matrix wound dressing. This document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device, rather than providing detailed acceptance criteria and performance data for an AI/ML-driven medical device.
Here's why the requested information cannot be extracted:
- Device Type: PROMOGRAN PRISMA Matrix is a wound dressing, a physical medical device, not an AI/ML-driven diagnostic or therapeutic system.
- Study Focus: The "Performance Data" section (page 11) explicitly states:
- "Summary of non-clinical tests conducted for determination of substantial equivalence": This refers to biocompatibility and bench studies for the physical dressing and its compatibility with Negative Pressure Wound Therapy, not an algorithm's performance.
- "Summary of clinical tests conducted for determination of substantial equivalence": This states "No clinical tests were necessary to demonstrate acceptable use of the Promogran Prisma™ with ActiV.A.C.™ Negative Pressure Wound Therapy." It mentions a "human factors engineering assessment" with 30 subject nurses and doctors to ensure changes to labeling for combined use are safe and effective. This is not a study proving an AI/ML device's diagnostic performance.
- Absence of AI/ML Specifics: There is no mention of algorithms, machine learning models, image analysis, diagnostic performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, AUC), ground truth establishment by experts, test sets, training sets, or MRMC studies, all of which are pertinent to AI/ML device evaluations.
Therefore, the requested tables and details pertaining to AI/ML device acceptance criteria and performance studies are not present in this document. The document describes a traditional medical device's clearance process based on substantial equivalence.
