Device Description:

. * *

The MediPlus-Foam™ AG Dressings product line is a multi-layered, sterile highly absorbing open cell hydrophilic wound dressing composed of a thick soft, smooth elastic and breathable PU foam sandwiched in between a breathable PU film and a silver net layer acting as an ... antimicrobial barrier. The product line is available in different sizes. The MediPlus-SuperFoam™ AG Dressings product line has slightly thicker PU foam and is easier to bend for covering wound areas such as elbows or heels.

The MediPlus-ComfortFoam™ AG Dressings is a multi-layered, sterile highly absorbing open cell hydrophilic wound dressing composed of a thick soft, smooth elastic and breathable PU foam sandwiched in between a breathable PU film coated with acrylic adhesive and extends to act as a border adhesive film to allow application without need for secondary dressing or fixation bandage. The silver net layer acts as an antimicrobial barrier. MediPlus-ComfortFoam AG is useful for body sites where applying a secondary dressing or fixation bandage is not practicable or not desired by the user.

MediPlus-Foam AG, MediPlus-ComfortFoamAG, andMediPlus-SuperEoam AG Dressingsare used as an antimicrobial barrier for partial and full-thickness wounds such as builts, donor sites and graft recipient sites that are judged to be at risk from infection. The product features include: managing moisture level in the wound environment, controlled silver release, and the product mesh facilitates the passage of fluids/exudates through the dressing into the PU foam for adsorption. The dressings can remain on the wound for five to seven (5-7) days dependent on the amount of wound exudates.

#### Intended Use:

್ಕೆ

17

The MediPlus-Foam AG, MediPlus-ComfortFoam AG, and MediPlus-SuperFoam AG Dressings are indicated for exudate absorption and the management of partial to full thickness wounds. Some typical wounds are:

- Ulcers (venous, arterial, diabetic) .
- Pressure Sores ●
- . Donor Sites
- Surgical Incisions .
- Surgical Excisions .
- . Burns (1st and 2nd degree)

### Similarities and Differences of the Proposed Devices to the Predicate Devices:

#### Similarities

The MediPlus-Foam AG, MediPlus-ComfortFoam AG, and MediPlus-SuperFoam AG Dressings have the same basic technology characteristics for silver containing wound dressings. The features and benefits of using silver containing wound dressings are the same as the predicate and the indications for use are the same. The materials are comparable in that the silver ions are incorporated in the dressing and the plastics used against the wound bed are proven biocompatible.

#### Differences

The MediPlus-Foam AG, MediPlus-ComfortFoam AG, and MediPlus-SuperFoam AG Dressings utilize some of the same materials, specifically the use of plastics. The MediPlus-Foam AG, MediPlus-ComfortFoam AG, and MediPlus-SuperFoam AG Dressings comply with testing requirements of the recognized biocompatibility standard (see Section C).

#### Conclusion:

The MediPlus-Foam AG, MediPlus-ComfortFoam AG, and MediPlus-SuperFoam AG Dressings have the same principles of operation, intended use, and technological characteristics as the predicate device. Testing was completed for biocompatibility and antimicrobial effectiveness and the testing reports are contained in the 510(k) documentation (see Section C).
