## Indications for Use

The Disposable Surgical Face Masks are intended to be worn to protect both the patient and healthcare personnel from transferring of microorganisms, body fluids and particulate material. These surgical masks are intended for use in infection control practices to reduce the potential exposure to blood and body fluids. This is a single use, disposable device(s), provided non-sterile.

## Device Story

Disposable surgical face masks (Models 3P00B, C2900) designed to protect patients and healthcare personnel from microorganisms, body fluids, and particulates. 3P00B is a three-layer mask; C2900 is a four-layer mask. Both feature flat-pleated construction, aluminum nose pieces, and polyester/spandex ear loops. Used in clinical settings for infection control. Masks act as physical barriers to reduce exposure to blood and body fluids. Healthcare providers wear masks during procedures to prevent cross-contamination. Benefits include reduced risk of pathogen transmission and fluid exposure.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only. Performance verified via ASTM F2101 (BFE ≥ 99.9%), ASTM F2100 (Differential Pressure < 29.4 mmH2O), ASTM F1862 (Fluid resistance 120-160 mmHg), and 16 CFR 1610 (Flammability Class 1). Biocompatibility confirmed per ISO 10993-5 and ISO 10993-10.

## Technological Characteristics

Three-layer (3P00B) or four-layer (C2900) flat-pleated masks. Materials: Spun-bonded non-woven fabric, Polyethylene melt-blown non-woven, PE film. Aluminum nose piece. Polyester/spandex ear loops. ASTM F2100-25 Level 2/3 performance. Non-sterile, single-use. No software or electronic components.

## 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.

# Difference Analysis:

1. The test reports and evaluation use the ASTM F2100-25 performance criteria instead of the currently recognized ASTM F2100-23 criteria. The evaluation is similar, with the exception that the current differential pressure measurement is adjusted by a factor of  $4.9~\mathrm{cm}^2$ , the area of the test sample. Therefore, the F2100-25 criterion of  $29.4~\mathrm{mmH_2O}$  is identical to the F2100-23 criterion of  $6~\mathrm{mmH_2O/cm^2}$ . The use of either measure is acceptable.
2. The subject device has different material of nose wire and ear loop to the predicate device. However, biocompatibility test has been performed on the subject device and the results does not show any adverse effect. The subject device has different layers and material of the mask body to the predicate device, but the masks has been tested and the test results shown that the mask meet the requirements of the medical mask.
