Intended Use
NovoGen Wound Matrix is indicated for the management of wounds including: · Partial and full-thickness wounds - Pressure ulcers - Venous ulcers - · Diabetic ulcers - · Chronic vascular ulcers - · Tunneled/undermined wounds - · Surgical wounds (donor sites/grafts, post-Moh's surgery, post-laser surgery, podiatric, wound dehiscence) - · Trauma wounds (abrasions, lacerations, partial thickness burns, and skin tears) - · Draining wounds
Device Story
Absorbable, sterile, single-use wound matrix; composed of bovine type I collagen and 45S5 bioactive glass. Device functions as scaffold for local management of cutaneous wounds; hydrated with wound exudate or sterile water to form soft, conforming layer; naturally incorporated into wound over time. Used in clinical settings for wound management; applied by healthcare providers. Output is physical wound dressing; provides moist environment to support healing. Benefits include wound coverage and support for tissue management.
Clinical Evidence
No human clinical trials provided. Evidence includes non-clinical bench testing (absorption, compression recovery, degradation, hydration, tensile strength, viral inactivation) and a full-thickness porcine wound healing study showing equivalent performance to predicate. Biocompatibility confirmed per ISO 10993-1 (cytotoxicity, sensitization, systemic toxicity, implantation, genotoxicity, endotoxin). Human Repeat Insult Patch Test (HRIPT) showed no potential for dermal irritation or sensitization.
Technological Characteristics
Composition: Bovine type I collagen and 45S5 bioactive glass. Form factor: Single-layer matrix, trim-to-size. Sterilization: Gamma radiation (10^-6 SAL). Biocompatible per ISO 10993-1. Non-pyrogenic. Maintains moist wound environment.
Indications for Use
Indicated for management of partial/full-thickness wounds, pressure/venous/diabetic/chronic vascular ulcers, tunneled/undermined wounds, surgical wounds (donor sites, grafts, post-Moh's/laser/podiatric, dehiscence), trauma wounds (abrasions, lacerations, partial thickness burns, skin tears), and draining wounds.

## Technological Characteristics
NovoGen Wound Matrix is supplied terminally sterile barrier packaging configuration. NovoGen Wound Matrix is a scaffold and is similar to other wound matrices with respect to its design. The subject device is composed of bovine collagen with Bioglass® 4555 added as additional structural reinforcement.
There are no significant technological differences between the subject and predicate device. The subject device uses similar materials, is of a similar size and thickness, has similar design properties, and has the same intended use as the primary and additional predicates and reference devices. The presentation of the device in single vs dual peel packaging configuration does not create new risks for safety or effectiveness. The subject device uses the same packaging configuration as cleared in reference device K110368 NovaBone Putty - Bioactive Synthetic Bone Graft and uses the same sterilization process as cleared in reference device K112428 NovaBone Dental Morsels - Bioactive Synthetic Bone Graft.
## Non-Clinical Performance Testing Summary
Performance testing for the NovaBone NovoGen Wound Matrix includes:
- Absorption Capacity
- Compression Recovery ●
- Degradation Potential via Collagenase ●
- Hydration Time
- Tensile Strength ●
- Viral Inactivation ●
{6}------------------------------------------------
A full thickness porcine wound healing study found equivalent wound healing performance for the NovaBone NovoGen Wound Matrix when compared to the primary predicate device and untreated control sites.
The NovaBone NovoGen Wound Matrix was found to be biocompatible for its intended use when tested in compliance with ISO 10993-1. Cytotoxicity, sensitization, acute systemic toxicity, material mediated pyrogenicity, subacute systemic toxicity, implantation, genotoxicity, and endotoxin endpoints were addressed via testing while chronic toxicity and carcinogenicity were addressed via a toxicological risk assessment.
A Human Repeat Insult Patch Test (HRIPT) was performed to determine the potential of the test material to elicit dermal irritation and/or induce sensitization following repeated patch applications in human subjects. The Induction Phase of the study is designed to assess the potential of the subject device to elicit an irritation reaction, whereas the Challenge Phase of the study is designed to assess the potential of the subject device to elicit a sensitization response.
Based on the test population who completed the study, NovoGen Wound Matrix did not demonstrate a potential for eliciting dermal irritation or inducing sensitization.
### Conclusions
Based on the similarities of the intended use/indications for use, technological and functional characteristic, and the results of the non-clinical performance testing, the subject device is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device.
