The chemical indicator stripes turn from blue toward pink after exposure to vaporized hydrogen peroxide.

Device Story

External chemical process indicator tape; non-cellulosic plastic backing with pressure-sensitive adhesive; chemical indicator stripes. Used in healthcare facilities to secure sterilization packs; differentiates processed from unprocessed items. Upon exposure to vaporized hydrogen peroxide, indicator stripes transition from blue to pink. Provides visual confirmation of exposure to sterilization process; aids in inventory management and sterility assurance workflows.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance verified via color change testing and minimum exposure parameter determination in the STERIZONE® VP4 Sterilizer (Cycle 1) per FDA guidance for chemical indicators.

Technological Characteristics

Non-cellulosic plastic backing; pressure-sensitive adhesive; chemical indicator stripes (blue to pink transition). 18-month shelf life; 6-month endpoint reaction stability. No electronic components or software.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use as an external pack process indicator to differentiate processed from unprocessed items in specified vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilization systems. Suitable for use on non-woven disposable wraps and peel pouches.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

Biological sterilization process indicator: A device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor adequacy of sterilization. The device consists of a known number of microorganisms, of known resistance to the mode of sterilization, in or on a carrier and enclosed in a protective package. Subsequent growth or failure of the microorganisms to grow under suitable conditions indicates the adequacy of sterilization. Physical/chemical sterilization process indicator: A device intended for use by a health care provider to accompany products being sterilized through a sterilization procedure and to monitor one or more parameters of the sterilization process. The adequacy of the sterilization conditions as measured by these parameters is indicated by a visible change in the device.

Dear Mary Fretland:

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

{1}------------------------------------------------

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 devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) 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 https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.

#### PREMARKET NOTIFICATION [510(k)] 3M™ ComplyTM Hydrogen Peroxide Indicator Tape 1228

The 3M™ Comply™ Hydrogen Peroxide Indicator Tape 1228 is the same design as the previously cleared device of the same model number (the predicate) which is sold under the tradename 3M™ Comply™ Hydrogen Peroxide Indicator Tape 1228 (K203285). No changes have been made to the device materials or fundamental technology.

#### 6. Summary of Non-clinical Testing

To demonstrate performance in the newly claimed sterilizer and cycles, nonclinical testing was performed in accordance with the FDA Guidance for Industry and Staff: Premarket Notification [510(k)] Submissions for Chemical Indicators, issued December 19, 2003. Reference Table 6.1 for testing completed in the STERIZONE® VP4 Sterilizer (Cycle 1).
