## Device Story

Antiseptic Barrier Silver Foam Dressing is an exudate-handling system for low-to-moderate exuding wounds. Device consists of a hydropolymer foam island with medical pressure-sensitive adhesive. During use, the absorbent island expands to manage exudate and maintain a moist wound environment. Antibacterial activity is provided by silver, demonstrated against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli. Used in clinical settings under healthcare professional direction. Benefits include moisture management and antimicrobial barrier protection to support wound healing. Device is supplied sterile via gamma irradiation.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Laboratory testing demonstrated significant antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli. Biocompatibility testing, including dermal sensitization, cytotoxicity, acute systemic toxicity, and hemocompatibility/hemolysis, was successfully completed per ISO/Tripartite guidelines.

## Technological Characteristics

Hydropolymer foam island dressing with 100% medical pressure-sensitive adhesive coverage. Foam thickness 3±1mm; backing thickness 0.4mm ± 10%. Density 350-450 kgs/m3. Sterilized via gamma irradiation per ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11137 and AAMI TIR8.

Safety & Effectiveness: MedTrade Products Antiseptic Barrier Silver Foam Dressing

Classification Name: 79 MGP, 878.4020 Dressing, Wound and Burn, Occlusive

Contact: Jonathan Ranfield - Director, Quality Assurance & Regulatory Affairs

Prepared: October 21, 2003

Description: MedTrade Product's Antiseptic Barrier Silver Foam Dressing is an exudate handling system intended for low to moderate exuding wounds. The antibacterial activity acting in the dressing is supported by laboratory testing demonstrating significant antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginose, Staphylococcus aureus & Escherichia coli. The island dressing maintains a moist wound environment, which is conducive to optimal wound healing. During use the absorbent island gently expands as it takes up exudate. During use the lesion size may initially increase. This is normal and to be expected prior to wound granulation

MedTrade Product's Antiseptic Barrier Silver Foam Dressing should be used under health care professional direction for the following indications: Pressure ulcers, Lower extremity uicers, Venous, Arterial, Mixed etlology, Diabetic ulcers, Donor sites.

Dressings are supplied sterile in single use pouches. Product is gamma irradiated in accordance with the Sterilisation of Health Care Products - Requirements for Validation and Routine Control - Radiation Sterilisation. 30 Edition (ANS/AAMI/SO11137 - 1995) and Microbiological Methods for Gamma Sterilisation (AAMI TIR8-1991) for qualification for Method 1 for dosimetric release with a sterility assurance level of 10 7

Packaging will consist of a single dressing in either a paper / paper / poly pouch, the pouches will then be placed in to a sales carton, with an Instructions For Use Leaflet.

Biocompatability testing including: Dermal Sensitization, Cytotoxicity, Acute Systemic Toxicity and HemocompatibilityHemolysis have been successfully completed per ISO/Tripartite guidelines.
