JUN 17 2009 {1}------------------------------------------------ K082910 Page 2 of 2 The Bandage is an adhesive bandage which may be purchased for over-the-counter use as a first aid. The device consists of a hydrophyillic pad stock with sufficient absorbency to absorb normal quantities of blood or other wound exudates typical of minor abrasions or lacerations, supplied on a flexible, non-absorbent backing coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive capable of adhering the device to human skin Prescription Use - Under the supervision of a healthcare professional, Silver Bandages are indicated for the management of pressure ulcers diabetic foot ulcers, as well as minor cuts, scrapes, abrasions, lacerations, and burns. Over-the-counter Use - The Bandages are indicated for first aid to cover minor cuts, scrapes, abrasions, lacerations and burns. The both bandages have a traditional bandage design consisting of an adhesive coated backing, wound pad that contains silver, paper release tabs and protected by a cohesive coated paper wrapper that serves as the sterile barrier. The types of materials are similar to the Curad @ Silver Bandage with silver. Equivalent concentrations of silver are released in the predicate device and new device. Biocompatibility assessment was performed on the bandage to include patient skin contact surface (tape) and the fluid path contacting surface (the silver pad) with satisfactory results. In Vitro testing showed that silver in the pad, of the prescription use Silver Bandages, reduced bacterial growth by over 99% (S. aureus, S. aureus(MRSA), E. coli, E. hirae and P. aeruginosa) for 24 hours contact time.
