Intended Use

Urgoclean Ag. Antibacterial Absorbent Wound Dressing with Silver is indicated to manage exuding wounds, especially during the debridement of slough. This includes chronic exuding wounds such as venous stasis ulcers, arterial ulcers, pressure ulcers (stage II-IV), diabetic ulcers; surgical wounds (post-operative, dermatological); partial thickness burns; traumatic wounds; local management of wounds that are prone to bleeding, such as wounds that have been mechanically or surgically debrided. The dressing also provides an antibiotic barrier for bacterial penetration of the dressing, which may help reduce infection.

Device Story

Urgoclean Ag is a sterile, nonwoven, highly absorbent wound dressing. It features a silver-containing, soft-adherent lipido-colloid layer at the wound interface. Upon contact with wound exudates or slough, the dressing forms a gel, maintaining a moist wound environment. This gel formation facilitates atraumatic dressing removal, minimizing tissue damage and pain. The silver component provides an antibacterial barrier against bacterial penetration. The device is intended for clinical use by healthcare providers to manage various exuding wound types, aiding in debridement and infection reduction.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Safety and performance established via bench testing and biocompatibility testing conducted in accordance with ISO 10993 standards for prolonged contact (24 hours to 30 days).

Technological Characteristics

Sterile nonwoven absorbent pad with silver-containing lipido-colloid layer. Principle of operation: absorption of body fluids to form a gel. Biocompatibility tested per ISO 10993. Sterilized product.

Indications for Use

Indicated for management of exuding wounds, including chronic wounds (venous, arterial, pressure stage II-IV, diabetic ulcers), surgical wounds, partial thickness burns, and traumatic wounds. Suitable for wounds prone to bleeding post-debridement. Provides antibacterial barrier.

Aquacel® Ag with Hydrofiber® Silver Impregnated Antimicrobial Dressing (K063271, K080383), Convatec.

- Description of Device 4.
Urgoclean Ag, Antibacterial Absorbent Wound Dressing with Silver is a sterile nonwoven highly absorbent pad coated with a silver containing soft-adherent lipido-colloid layer on the dressing/wound interface.

In contact with body fluids (exudates, slough) it forms a gel creating a moist environment, which allows for an easy removal of the dressing with little or no damage to healing tissues, leading to no or minor pain.

It is supplied sterile in an individual pouch.

- న్. Indications for Use
Urgoclean Ag, Antibacterial Absorbent Wound Dressing with Silver is indicated to manage exuding wounds, especially during the debridement of slough. This includes chronic exuding wounds such as venous stasis ulcers, arterial ulcers, pressure ulcers (stage II-IV), diabetic ulcers; surgical wounds (post-operative, dermatological); partial thickness burns; traumatic wounds; local management of wounds that are prone to bleeding, such as wounds that have been mechanically or surgically debrided. The dressing also provides an antibiotic barrier for bacterial penetration of the dressing, which may help reduce infection.

- 6. Description of Substantial Equivalence:
Substantial Equivalence with Aquacel® Ag with Hydrofiber® Silver Impregnated Antimicrobial Dressing is based on technology, indications and safety.

Both products have similar properties & claims, leading to similar indications.

Both products are fiber-based, and contain silver.

Key properties of both dressings are

- Absorption of exudates/body fluids by fibres => gel formation -
- Creation of a moist environment to enhance healing -
- Antibacterial properties (barrier effect), the dressing provides a barrier against bacterial penetration
- Non-sticking => easy removal of the dressing with little or no damage to healing tissues, leading to no or minor pain
- Conformability to the wound -
- -Sterility

When compared to Aquacel® Ag Hydrofiber® Wound Dressing, it was demonstrated that Urgoclean Ag. Antibacterial Absorbent Wound Dressing with Silver have similar properties such as, both are made of sterile fibers, contain silver and have comparable absorption and gelling properties leading to comparable indications for use.

Thus we conclude that Urgoclean Ag Antibacterial Absorbent Wound Dressing with Silver and Aquacel® Ag Hydrofiber® Wound Dressing are substantially equivalent.

In terms of Safety, biocompatibility tests were conducted in accordance with standards ISO 10993 for a product considered as being in prolonged contact with an altered surface (24 hours to 30 days), as long as an overall evaluation of silver dressings tolerance.

From these elements we conclude that Urgoclean Ag. Antibacterial Absorbent Wound Dressing with Silver is as safe as its proposed predicate Aquacel® Ag Hydrofiber® Silver Impregnated Antimicrobial Dressing.
