A health care professional may be consulted prior to the first use of the product to determine whether these conditions exist. Kytogenics' Hydrophilic Wound Dressing may also be used under the care of a health care professional for wounds such as partial thickness dermal ulcers (pressure sores, venous stasis ulcers, diabetic ulcers), surgical wounds (post operative incisions and donor sites, and second degree burns. ## Device Story NOCC™ Hydrophilic Wound Dressing is a clear, chitosan-based hydrogel designed to provide a moist wound environment to support healing. The device is applied topically to the wound site. It is intended for both over-the-counter use for minor wounds and professional use for more complex wounds like ulcers, surgical incisions, and second-degree burns. The hydrogel is viscoelastic, biocompatible, and bioresorbable, functioning similarly to hyaluronic acid to facilitate wound management. It is supplied sterile in polyethylene bottles. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is supported by nonclinical studies and over 10 years of evaluation demonstrating the bioresorbability and biocompatibility of the NOCC technology, including bioadhesion to soft and hard tissues. ## Technological Characteristics Chitosan-based hydrogel; clear, viscoelastic, biocompatible, and bioresorbable. Supplied sterile via moist heat sterilization in polyethylene bottles. Similar properties to hyaluronic acid (highly hydrated, lubricious). ## Predicate Devices - Bionect Clear Hydrogel, Fidia Pharmaceutical ([K984264](/device/K984264.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
