Intended Use
Rochal Antimicrobial Wound Gel is intended for over-the-counter (OTC) and professional (Rx) use as follows: For Over-the-Counter Use: ROCHAL Antimicrobial Wound Gel is intended for the management of minor skin scrapes, minor cuts, minor lacerations, minor burns (1st degree burns), minor irritations. Professional Use: ROCHAL Antimicrobial Wound Gel is intended for the management of ulcers (including diabetic foot and leg ulcers and pressure ulcers), first- and second-degree burns, partial- and full-thickness wounds, large surface area wounds, and surgical incisions.
Device Story
Rochal Antimicrobial Wound Gel is an amorphous, colorless gel applied topically to wounds. It provides a moist environment to facilitate autolytic debridement and contains PHMB (0.1% w/w) as a preservative to resist microbial colonization within the dressing during shelf storage. Used in clinical settings by professionals or at home by patients for minor injuries. The gel is applied directly to the wound surface. By maintaining a moist environment, it supports the body's natural enzymatic breakdown of necrotic tissue, potentially aiding healing and protecting the wound site.
Clinical Evidence
No human clinical trials. Evidence includes ISO 10993 biocompatibility testing for surface devices with prolonged contact (>24 hours to 30 days), a large-animal full-thickness wound healing study, USP <51> preservative effectiveness testing, and real-time aging studies confirming 6-month shelf-life stability.
Technological Characteristics
Amorphous gel containing water, Poloxamer 407, NaCl, ethylhexylglycerin, octane-1-2-diol, PHMB (0.1% w/w), and EDTA. Biocompatibility per ISO 10993 for prolonged contact (>24 hours to 30 days) on breached/compromised surfaces. Preservative effectiveness per USP <51>. Non-sterile/shelf-stable formulation.
Indications for Use
Indicated for management of minor skin scrapes, cuts, lacerations, 1st-degree burns, and irritations (OTC); and management of ulcers (diabetic foot, leg, pressure), 1st/2nd-degree burns, partial/full-thickness wounds, large surface area wounds, and surgical incisions (Rx).

### 12. Performance Testing
Rochal Antimicrobial Wound Gel has been subjected to ISO 10993 biocompatibility studies to demonstrate the device is as safe and as effective as its predicate device. Additionally, a large-animal, full-thickness wound healing study was conducted to demonstrate safety. USP<51> preservative effectiveness testing demonstrates the chosen preservative is appropriate for a product formulation. The results of real-time aging study indicate the product is stable and maintains performance for the proposed shelf life of six months.
### 13. Substantial Equivalence Conclusion
Rochal Antimicrobial Wound Gel has very similar indications for use, and similar product form and function as the predicate device, Prontosan Wound Gel X (K130857).
On the basis of the information presented in this 510(k) submission, Rochal Industries LLC, concludes (a) that Rochal Antimicrobial Wound Gel is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, as it has the same intended uses as the predicate device; and (b) demonstrates the device is as safe and effective as the legally marketed predicate device.
