Class 2
Indications for Use
Disposable sterile drapes are used in the operating room as a protective covering, for both patient and operating room staff, from the transfer of body fluids, micro-organisms and particulates. Drapes provided as sterile and non-sterile. Non-sterile surgical drapes are to be sold to OEMs for EtO sterilization according to ISO 11135. Sterile Surgical Drapes are to be sold directly to users after EtO sterilization validation to ISO 11135.
Device Story
Welmed Surgical Drapes are disposable, sterile or non-sterile protective coverings used in operating rooms; designed to shield patients and staff from body fluids, microorganisms, and particulates. Drapes are available in various configurations, including flat, general surgery, laparoscopic, laparotomy, breast/chest, thyroid, split, and orthopedic extremity designs. Non-sterile versions are intended for OEM distribution for EtO sterilization; sterile versions are provided directly to clinical users. The device functions as a physical barrier; performance is verified through hydrostatic pressure, impact penetration, tensile strength, tear strength, lint generation, and flammability testing. Biocompatibility is confirmed per ISO 10993 standards.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Performance verified via AATCC 127 (hydrostatic pressure), AATCC 42 (impact penetration), ASTM D5034 (tensile strength), ASTM D5734 (tear strength), ISO 9073-10 (lint generation), and CPSC CS-191-53 (flammability). Biocompatibility testing conducted per ISO 10993-1, -5, and -10, covering cytotoxicity, skin irritation, intracutaneous reactivity, and sensitization.
Technological Characteristics
Nonwoven textile materials. Physical barrier properties verified via hydrostatic pressure and impact penetration testing. Sterilization via EtO per ISO 11135. Biocompatibility compliant with ISO 10993-1, -5, -10. Various dimensions and configurations (fenestrated, split, reinforced).
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as a protective barrier for patients and operating room staff to prevent the transfer of body fluids, microorganisms, and particulates during surgical procedures.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A surgical drape and drape accessories is a device made of natural or synthetic materials intended to be used as a protective patient covering, such as to isolate a site of surgical incision from microbial and other contamination. The device includes a plastic wound protector that may adhere to the skin around a surgical incision or be placed in a wound to cover its exposed edges, and a latex drape with a self-retaining finger cot that is intended to allow repeated insertion of the surgeon's finger into the rectum during performance of a transurethral prostatectomy.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an ear, nose, and throat surgical drape, a latex sheet drape with self-retaining finger cot, a disposable urological drape, a Kelly pad, an ophthalmic patient drape, an ophthalmic microscope drape, an internal drape retention ring (wound protector), or a surgical drape that does not include an antimicrobial agent, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 878.9.

Dear Mr. Feye:
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.
