## Device Story

Hydrocleanse Antimicrobial Skin and Wound Care Solution is a clear, aqueous, slightly chlorinated solution (pH 4.0-5.8) supplied in PET bottles with a sprayer. It functions via mechanical removal of debris, dirt, and foreign material through fluid irrigation across the wound or device surface. Used in clinical settings under professional supervision or by patients for OTC management of minor skin injuries. The solution moistens and lubricates wound dressings and assists in debridement. It provides a non-sterile, shelf-stable antimicrobial environment for wound management.

## Clinical Evidence

Image /page/5/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for Sonoma Pharmaceuticals. The logo consists of a circular design on the left and the company name on the right. The circular design is made up of several curved shapes in shades of gray and teal, arranged to form a flower-like pattern. The company name "Sonoma" is written in a gray sans-serif font, with the word "PHARMACEUTICALS" written in a smaller teal font underneath.

#### VII. PERFORMANCE DATA

The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.

### Biocompatibility Testing

The biocompatibility evaluation for the Hydrocleanse Antimicrobial Skin and Wound Care Solution was conducted in accordance with the FDA Blue Book Memorandum #G95-1 "Use of International Standard ISO-10993, 'Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 1: Evaluation and Testing." May 1, 1995, and International Standard ISO 10993-1 "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices - Part 1 : Evaluation and Testing Within a Risk Management Process," as recognized by FDA.

## Bench Testing

The following tests were performed to support the performance of Hydrocleanse Antimicrobial Skin and Wound Care Solution: package integrity, visual inspection, osmolality, pH, Free Available Chlorine (FAC). USP <51> testing was used to support preservative effectiveness within the solution while on the shelf, used against the following bacteria in solution, Proteus mirabilis (ATCC- 25933), Serratia marcescens (ATCC-8100), antibiotic resistant Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) (ATCC-43300), Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis (VRE) (ATCC-700221), and Acinetobacter baumannii (ATCC 19606).

### VIII. CONCLUSION

Hydrocleanse Antimicrobial Skin and Wound Care Solution is substantially equivalent in intended use, technological characteristics, safety and effectiveness to the Hydrocleanse Wound Solution manufactured by Sonoma Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (K141012) and Simple Science Antimicrobial Skin and Wound Cleanser manufactured by Simple Science (K1600095). Therefore, the Hydrocleanse Antimicrobial Skin and Wound Care Solution is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
