Intended Use
Hydrofera Blue READY - Border is intended as an external dressing for use in local management of moderate to heavily exuding wounds such as pressure ulcers, donor sites, venous stasis ulcers, diabetic ulcers, abrasions, lacerations, superficial burns, post-surgical incisions, and other external wounds inflicted by trauma.
Device Story
Hydrofera Blue READY - Border is a sterile, absorptive polyurethane foam dressing containing methylene blue and gentian violet. It features a silicone adhesive border and a polycarbonate release liner. Used in hospitals, clinics, and homecare settings, the dressing is applied by healthcare providers or patients to manage moderate to heavily exuding wounds. The foam absorbs wound exudate while the antibacterial dyes provide a local antimicrobial environment. The device is passive; it does not require external energy or active monitoring. By absorbing fluid and maintaining an antibacterial environment, the dressing supports wound healing and protects the wound site from external contamination.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data was required. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing, including antibacterial efficacy (ASTM E2149-10), zone of inhibition (AATCC 147-2011), dye leachables, endotoxin testing (ANSI/AAMI ST72:2011), wicking speed, fluid retention, and border adhesion. Biocompatibility was verified per ISO 10993-1, including cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, pyrogenicity, implantation, and systemic toxicity.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Polyurethane foam, methylene blue, gentian violet, silicone adhesive, polycarbonate release liner. Principle: Passive absorption of exudate. Sterilization: Ethylene Oxide. Form factor: Bordered foam dressing. No energy source. Antibacterial content: 0.00005-0.0007 g/g combined dyes.
Indications for Use
Indicated for local management of moderate to heavily exuding wounds in patients with pressure ulcers, donor sites, venous stasis ulcers, arterial ulcers, diabetic ulcers, abrasions, lacerations, superficial burns, post-surgical incisions, and traumatic wounds. Not evaluated for pediatric or neonatal populations.

Dear Sean Anderson:
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your 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.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for
{1}------------------------------------------------
devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97).

| | Traditional 510(k) |
No clinical data was required to support substantial equivalence, and the testing performed demonstrates that the Hydrofera Blue READY - Border meets all performance specifications and is as safe and effective as the predicate device .
### 8. Conclusion
Based on the information provided in this 510(k), Hydrofera, LLC believes that the proposed Hydrofera Blue READY - Border is substantially equivalent to Hydrofera Blue PU Antibacterial Dressing (K130670) in terms of its intended use, design, operational and technological characteristics. The subject device raises no new issues of safety and met all test specifications, and the non-clinical testing performed effectiveness. demonstrates that the subject device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the predicate device.
