Class 2
Intended Use
The device is a sterile, single-use, personal protective system designed to provide a barrier between the surgical team and potentially hazardous bloodborne pathogens that may be present in the operation room environment. The device also offers the patient additional protection from potential deep wound infection by preventing skin, hair and other debris entry into the wound from surgical team members
Device Story
Disposable surgical hood system; worn by surgical team members. Components include drape material enclosure, adjustable headband, clear viewing window, and battery-powered air delivery system (fan) worn on waistband. Provides physical barrier against bloodborne pathogens; prevents shedding of skin/hair into surgical site. Used in operating room. Benefits include reduced risk of cross-contamination between surgical team and patient.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence established via non-clinical bench testing.
Technological Characteristics
Sterile, single-use surgical hood. Materials: drape fabric. Components: adjustable headband, clear viewing window, battery-powered fan/air delivery system. Mechanical design for personal protection. No software or electronic processing.
Indications for Use
Indicated for surgical team members in an operating room environment to provide a barrier against bloodborne pathogens and to protect patients from surgical site contamination by preventing the shedding of skin, hair, and debris.
Regulatory Classification
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.

## Legally Marketed Devices to Which Substantial Equivalence is Claimed:
- Stryker Steri-Shield Personal Protection Device .
- DePuy Sterile View Disposable Hood / Gown .
Device Description: The device consists of an enclosure of drape material that is worn by members of a surgical team and is fitted to the head with an adjustable headband. A clear viewing window is provided along with an air delivery system to supply cool air under the enclosure via a fan powered by a battery pack worn on the waistband.
Intended Use: The device is a sterile, sinqle-use, personal protective system designed to provide a barrier between the surgical team and potentially hazardous body fluids that may be present in the operation room environment.
Summary of Technologies: The disposable sterile surgical hood components (materials, design, sizes and indications) are similar or identical to the predicate devices.
Non-Clinical Testing: Non-clinical testing demonstrated the device performed as well as or better than currently marketed devices. Substantial equivalence was determined based on a comparison of technological characterizes with the predicate device. This comparison included fabric weight, grab strength, grab elongation, trap tear, hydrohead test, spray impact, alcohol (repellency), permeability and static decay.
Clinical Testing: Clinical testing was not used to establish substantial equivalence.

Dear Mr. Arnold:
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. 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting vour 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.
