    DermaTherapy Bed Linens

    Intended Use

    Bed linens made with DermaTherapy® fabrics are intended for use by patients 18 years of age and older in hospital settings who are susceptible to pressure ulcers. The DermaTherapy Bed Linens help to reduce the likelihood of patients developing pressure ulcers by reducing moisture, friction and shear on the patient's skin.

    Device Description

    DermaTherapy uses a silk-like fabric to minimize moisture, friction, and shear between the skin and the bedsupport surface. Continuous-filament yarns woven into the silk-like synthetic DermaTherapy fabric provide a smooth surface, free of broken or discontinuous fibers. This enhanced smoothness helps minimize the potential for irritation and abrasion of sensitive skin.

    DermaTherapy Bed Linens consists of pillow cases, top flat sheets, and underpads. The subject devices are made from DermaTherapy fabrics which are plain-weave constructions of 100% continuous-filament yarns. The polyester yarns have a non-round fiber cross-section to create micro-channels to facilitate moisture wicking and rapid drying. The yarns used in DermaTherapy fabrics are commercially available products, typically used in apparel.

    The only technological difference in the fabric construction between the subject device and the predicate device is the addition of a secondary static-dissipative polyester yarn at 0.8% of the total fabric weight. The static-dissipative yarn is incorporated to reduce the potential for static electricity that may occur during institutional laundering processes. The company has made no other modifications to the fabric or the manufacturing process of turning the fabric into the final product.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document describes data for a medical device called "DermaTherapy Bed Linens," which are intended to reduce the likelihood of pressure ulcers in hospital patients. Here's a breakdown of the requested information:

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

    The document does not explicitly state "acceptance criteria" with numerical targets for each performance characteristic. Instead, it lists the "Performance Characteristics" and the "Test Method / Standard" used to evaluate the device. The conclusion states that "bench testing demonstrated that the device met performance specifications" and "demonstrated substantially equivalent device performance." It also includes clinical study results showing a reduction in pressure ulcer incidence.

    Given the information, the table below will combine the performance characteristics (which can be inferred as criteria for evaluation) and the clinical performance results.
