The ProAct with Gel is a prescriptive device indicated for: . Lymphedema - primary and secondary . Prevention of venous stasis . Prevention of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) . Edema following trauma and sports injuries . Post immobilization edema .
Device Story
Gradient sequential compression device for lymphedema treatment. System comprises portable control unit, pneumatic connecting tubes, and chambered limb sleeves (arms/legs). Sleeves constructed of Brookwood 70 denier MD Nylon and DAF Breathable 270 Nylon, containing Nosocryl D60 super absorbent polymer gel within chambers. Gel remains enclosed, no patient contact. Control unit delivers sequential pneumatic pressure to sleeve chambers. Used in clinical or home settings; operated by patient or clinician. Output is mechanical compression to limb; aids fluid drainage and venous return. Benefits include edema reduction and DVT prophylaxis.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence based on technological similarity and toxicological assessment of the added gel material (Nosocryl D60), which demonstrated no systemic toxicity, sensitization, or genotoxicity in animal studies.
Technological Characteristics
Gradient sequential compression pump. Components: portable control unit, pneumatic tubes, limb sleeves. Sleeves: Brookwood 70 denier MD Nylon and DAF Breathable 270 Nylon. Added feature: Nosocryl D60 super absorbent polymer gel in chambers. Energy source: electric (powered control unit). Connectivity: none. Sterilization: not specified.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring treatment for primary/secondary lymphedema, prevention of venous stasis and DVT, and management of edema resulting from trauma, sports injuries, or post-immobilization.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A compressible limb sleeve is a device that is used to prevent pooling of blood in a limb by inflating periodically a sleeve around the limb.

# 510(k) Summary
#### (1) Contact Information
This 510(k) is being submitted by Joseph Azary on behalf of ProAct.
Submitter / Regulatory Consultant: Joseph Azary, 543 Long Hill Avenue, Shelton, CT 06484, Tel: 203-944-9320, Fax: 203-944-9317
Applicant / Sponsor: ProAct Inc. (Professional Advanced Compression Therapy Inc.), 1 Stone Eiver Road, Laurel Springs, New Jersey 08021, FDA Establishment Registration pending,
#### (2) Device Information
The device is classified as Class II under IRP and JOW, 21 CFR 890.5650 and 21 CFR 870.5800.
The ProAct 1 or ProAct with gel device is a gradient sequential compression device used in the treat ment of lymphedema.
The ProAct with gel is a modification to the ProAct 1 device that received FDA marketing clearance under 510(k) K003909_
The ProAct with gel uses the same powered control device that delivers gradient sequential compression pressure to the chambered compressible limb sleeves. The device is composed of three components:
- Lightweight, portable control unit .
- Compressible limb sleeves with gel in 3 sizes for arms and legs (Brookwood 70 denier MD Nylon . and DAF Breathable 270 Nylon)
- . Pneumatic connecting tubes
The control unit specifications and limb sleeve specifications have been included in Annex 1.
- . The subject device includes sleeves with Nosocryl D60 gel in the chambers.
The gel was added to address market requests.
{1}------------------------------------------------
The gel does not make direct contact with the patient. The gel will be enclosed within the Nylon cham ber. In the event the Nosocryl material leaked it is believed to have minimal safety concerns. Nosocryl is a super absorbent polymer material that has been used in disposable diapers over the last 20 years and also in feminine care products, adult incontinence pads, and in absorbent pads used in food package ing. Nosocryl has the following toxicological characteristics.
- Practically no harm to animals during acute toxicity testing. .
- Practically no harm to animals during skin contact and eye contact testing. .
- The material is not a skin sensitizer. .
- Studies of prolonged inhalation in animals have not shown systemic effects. .
- Experimental data found the material not to be genotoxic. .
- (3) Trade or Proprietary Name: ProAct with Gel or ProAct 1
#### Common, Usual, and Classification Name:
- . Gradient Sequential Compression Pump
- Powered Inflatable Tube Massager. .
#### (4) Predicate Devices:
The predicate devices are identified as the following: ProAct 1 - 510(k) K003909
The difference with the ProAct with gel is as follows:
- . The sleeves now contain chambers with Nosocryl D60 gel.
The material is non-toxic and has been used for other medical applications.
#### (5) Intended Use:
The ProAct with Gel is a prescriptive device indicated for:
- . Lymphedema - primary and secondary
- . Prevention of venous stasis
- Prevention of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) .
- Edema following trauma and sports injuries .
- Post immobilization edema .
- (6) Technological Characteristics: The technological characteristics of the device remain the same. The gel is added to the chambers. The indications for use, power unit, and features of the device remain the same.
- (7) Conclusion: We believe the differences are minor and conclude that the subject device is as safe and effective as the predicate devices.

#### Dear Mr. Azary:
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 such 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.
