Intended Use

The Armis VeriCyn® Wound Wash is to be used with a lavage system to create mechanical movement at the wound surface by delivery of a solution and is indicated for use in cleansing and removal of foreign material including microorganisms and debris from wounds (such as stage I-IV pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, post surgical wounds, first degree and partial thickness burns, grafted and donor sites).

Device Story

VeriCyn® Wound Wash is an aqueous irrigation solution containing hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid, disodium EDTA, and purified water. Used with a lavage system to provide mechanical debridement of wounds; solution facilitates removal of debris and microorganisms from wound surfaces. Intended for clinical use by healthcare professionals on various wound types including pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, and burns. Device acts via mechanical flushing; solution composition supports preservative effectiveness. Healthcare providers apply the solution via lavage to cleanse the wound bed, aiding in the removal of foreign material to support wound healing.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data. Testing included visual/chemical analysis (clarity, color, pH, viscosity), preservative effectiveness (USP <51>), bioburden (USP <61>, <62>), and biocompatibility (cytotoxicity ISO 10993-5, sensitization ISO 10993-10, irritation ISO 10993-10, acute systemic toxicity ISO 10993-11, material-mediated pyrogenicity ISO 10993-11). All tests passed.

Technological Characteristics

Aqueous solution containing hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid, disodium EDTA, and purified water. pH 3.0-3.8. Non-sterile. Single-patient use. Biocompatible per ISO 10993. Mechanical action via lavage system delivery.

Indications for Use

Indicated for cleansing and removal of foreign material, microorganisms, and debris from wounds including stage I-IV pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, post-surgical wounds, first-degree and partial-thickness burns, and grafted/donor sites. Prescription use only.

The solution is a clear, colorless, no-odor aqueous solution that is used to remove debris, including microorganisms from wounds though the use of a lavage system. ARMIS VeriCyn® Wound Wash contains: Hydrogen Peroxide, Acetic Acid, Disodium EDTA and Purified water. VeriCyn® Wound Wash has been tested for compliance with ISO 10993. | | Comparison of Technological Characteristics | Minor differences exist between VeriCyn® and Next Science™ Irrigation Solution, these differences do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness when compared to the predicate device. Therefore, VeriCyn® is considered substantially equivalent to Next Science™ Irrigation Solution. | |---------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | | The difference in materials and composition do not raise any new questions of safety and effectiveness. The materials of construction of VeriCyn® are non-novel to wound wash products cleared by FDA. Each ingredient has a stated purpose, literature data to support its function, and testing demonstrated there are no new questions raised related to safety or effectiveness compared to the predicate. The difference in composition do not raise any new questions of safety and effectiveness. The composition of the materials of the lavage solution are similar between the subject device and the predicate device. VeriCyn® uses a two-preservative system designed to provide preservative effectiveness for the shelf life of the product. | | | The difference in pH do not raise any new questions of safety and effectiveness. During intended use of the product the pH of VeriCyn® increase to a higher, physiological, pH upon contact with the skin or wound; this is based on the low concentration of acetic acid. The predicate contains a higher concentration of acetic acid and sodium acetate as a pH buffer system that is used to control changes in pH and would maintain lower pH upon contact with skin or wounds than the non-buffered VeriCyn® product. Therefore, no additional risks have been identified related to pH. | | | The difference in sterility does not raise any new questions of safety and effectiveness VeriCyn® has been tested against USP<51>. equivalent to a non-sterile reference device. | {4}------------------------------------------------ | Equivalence Comparison | | | | | |------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | | Subject Device VeriCyn® Wound Wash (K220759) | Predicate Device Next Science™ Irrigation Solution (K161165) | Reference Device Stay Fresh Hydrocolloid Dressing (K151186) | Reference Device Atteris Antimicrobial Skin & Wound Cleanser Rochal Industries (K160192) | | Rx / OTC | Rx | Rx | Rx and OTC | Rx and OTC | | Product Code | FQH / FRO | FQH / FRO | FRO | FRO | | Intended Use | Wound lavage | Wound lavage | Wound dressing | Wound Dressing | | Indications for Use | Prescription (Rx) use: The Armis VeriCyn® Wound Wash is to be used with a lavage system to create mechanical movement at the wound surface by delivery of a solution and is indicated for use in cleansing and removal of foreign material including micro-organisms and debris from wounds (such as stage I-IV pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, post surgical wounds, first degree and second degree partial thickness burns, grafted and donor sites). | To be used with a jet lavage system and is indicated for use in cleansing and removal of debris, including microorganisms, from wounds. | For Over-the-Counter Use: The Stay Fresh Hydrocolloid dressing acts as a barrier to bacterial penetration and is indicated for first aid to cover minor cuts, minor abrasions, and minor lacerations Rx Use: Under the supervision of a healthcare professional, the Stay Fresh Hydrocolloid dressing is intended for use as a primary dressing for exuding wounds that acts as a barrier to bacterial penetration, for use on first and second degree burns, surgical wounds, pressure ulcers, dermal ulcers, as well as minor cuts, abrasions, lacerations. | For Over-the-Counter Use: Atteris Antimicrobial Skin & Wound Cleanser is intended for physical cleaning and removal of dirt and debris, from skin scrapes, cuts, lacerations, minor irritations, exit sites and unbroken skin.
