The masks are indicated in any procedure or situation where there is a risk of microorganism, body fluid and particulate aerosol transfer. ## Device Story Dukal Surgical Face Masks are 3-ply protective barriers for nose and mouth. Construction includes inner/outer layers of spun-bond polypropylene or medical grade tissue and a middle layer of melt-blown polypropylene filter media. Features include malleable aluminum nose wire and soft latex-free elastic ear loops or ties; specific models include anti-fog treated plastic splash visors. Used in clinical settings by healthcare workers and patients to mitigate exposure to microorganisms, body fluids, and aerosols. Device functions as a physical barrier; performance verified via fluid resistance, particulate filtration, and bacterial filtration testing. Output is a protective barrier; clinical benefit is reduced risk of cross-contamination during procedures. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Performance compared to predicate (K051291) using ASTM standards: Fluid Resistance (ASTM F1862-05, 30/32 passed vs 19/32), PFE (ASTM F2299, 98.3% vs 98.7%), BFE (ASTM F2101-01/F2100-04, 99.9% vs 99.8%), and Differential Pressure (2.28 mmH2O/cm2 vs 2.28 mmH2O/cm2). Flammability testing confirmed Class 1 rating. ## Technological Characteristics 3-ply mask; inner/outer layers: spun-bond polypropylene or medical grade tissue; middle layer: melt-blown polypropylene filter; nose piece: malleable aluminum wire; ear loops/ties: latex-free elastic; optional anti-fog plastic shield (ATFF-High Impact 0.10mm). Performance standards: ASTM F2100-04, ASTM F1862-05, ASTM F2299, ASTM F2101-01. ## Regulatory Identification Surgical apparel are devices that are intended to be worn by operating room personnel during surgical procedures to protect both the surgical patient and the operating room personnel from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. Examples include surgical caps, hoods, masks, gowns, operating room shoes and shoe covers, and isolation masks and gowns. Surgical suits and dresses, commonly known as scrub suits, are excluded. ## Special Controls *Classification.* (1) Class II (special controls) for surgical gowns and surgical masks. A surgical N95 respirator or N95 filtering facepiece respirator is not exempt if it is intended to prevent specific diseases or infections, or it is labeled or otherwise represented as filtering surgical smoke or plumes, filtering specific amounts of viruses or bacteria, reducing the amount of and/or killing viruses, bacteria, or fungi, or affecting allergenicity, or it contains coating technologies unrelated to filtration (e.g., to reduce and or kill microorganisms). Surgical N95 respirators and N95 filtering facepiece respirators are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9, and the following conditions for exemption:(i) The user contacting components of the device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible. (ii) Analysis and nonclinical testing must: (A) Characterize flammability and be demonstrated to be appropriate for the intended environment of use; and (B) Demonstrate the ability of the device to resist penetration by fluids, such as blood and body fluids, at a velocity consistent with the intended use of the device. (iii) NIOSH approved under its regulation. (2) Class I (general controls) for surgical apparel other than surgical gowns and surgical masks. The class I device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9. ## Predicate Devices - A.R.
