Intended Use
AMSure® Sterile Water, and Sterile Normal Saline for Wound Flush - For over-the-counter use: For moistening absorbent wound dressing and cleaning minor cuts, minor burns, superficial abrasions and minor irritations of the skin. - For prescription use: For moistening absorbent wound dressing and for moistening, debriding and cleaning acute and chronic dermal lesions, such as Stage I-IV pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, foot ulcers, post-surgical wounds, first and second degree burns, cuts, abrasions and minor skin irritations and for device irrigation.
Device Story
Device consists of USP-grade sterile water or 0.9% sterile normal saline in 100mL HDPE bottles with foil induction seals. Used in clinical or home care settings by clinicians or patients. Principle of operation is mechanical action of fluid flow across wound or device surface to remove foreign objects, dirt, and debris. Output is the irrigation fluid itself. Benefits include effective wound debridement and cleaning of dermal lesions or medical devices.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Biocompatibility testing (ISO 10993) confirmed non-cytotoxic, non-irritating, and non-sensitizing properties. Performance testing verified compliance with USP standards for sterile saline and sterile water. Stability testing conducted via accelerated aging to support labeling.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: HDPE bottle, foil induction seal. Contents: USP-grade sterile water or 0.9% sterile normal saline. Form factor: 100mL bottle. Sterilization: Gamma sterilization. Principle: Mechanical irrigation. No antimicrobial or other additives.
Indications for Use
Indicated for OTC use to moisten absorbent wound dressings and clean minor cuts, burns, superficial abrasions, and skin irritations. Indicated for prescription use to moisten absorbent wound dressings; moisten, debride, and clean acute/chronic dermal lesions (Stage I-IV pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, foot ulcers, post-surgical wounds, first/second-degree burns, cuts, abrasions, minor skin irritations); and for device irrigation.

Dear Jane Gao:
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for
{1}------------------------------------------------
devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/CombinationProducts/GuidanceRegulatoryInformation/ucm597488.html; good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm.
