K080779 510(k) Number: Date Prepared: August 2008 Trade/Proprietary Name: IRRISEPT™ Wound Debridement and Cleansing System Common Name: Wound Cleanser Jet Lavage, Class II, 21 CFR 880.5475 Classification Name: FQH Product Code: Legally Marketed Predicate Devices: MicroKlenz™ Antimicrobial, Deodorizing Wound Cleanser, 510(k) #: K022670; DermaGran® Wound Cleanser, 510(k) #s: K970660; K954743, K945802; BioPatch® CHG Dressing, 510(k) #: K003229 ### Device Description: IRRISEPT™ Wound Debridement and Cleansing System is a manual, self-contained irrigation device with 0.05% Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG) solution. The mechanical action effectively loosens and removes wound debris. The CHG acts as a preservative to help inhibit microbial growth in the solution. The IRRISEPT™ Wound Debridement and Cleansing System is straightforward and uncomplicated to use. The User opens a prepackaged box, which contains one bottle and one splashquard. The bottle is opened by twisting off its "T" cap seal. The splashguard is then removed from its pouch and screwed directly onto the bottle. The IRRISEPT™ Wound Debridement and Cleansing System is now ready for use. The IRRISEPT™ Wound Debridement and Cleansing System can produce 7-8 psi of pressure as recommended by College of Emergency Physician's (A.C.E.P) for effective wound American cleansing/irrigation. This pressure is sufficient to agitate, loosen and remove debris from wounds. The incredients of the solution are 0.05% Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG) in Sterile Water for Irrigation, USP (99.95%). #### Intended Use: The IRRISEPT™ Wound Debridement and Cleansing System is a wound cleansing delivery system. The mechanical action effectively loosens and removes wound debris. {1}------------------------------------------------ ### 510(k) SUMMARY - Revised ## Similarities and Differences of the Proposed Devices to the Predicate Devices: #### Similarities The IRRISEPT™ Wound Debridement and Cleansing System is substantially equivalent in intended use and method of use to the predicate devices. The preservative present in the IRRISEPT™ solution, Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG), is equivalent to Johnson & Johnson's predicate device, BioPatch® CHG Dressing, and has been utilized extensively in the marketplace. #### Differences The IRRISEPT™ Wound Debridement and Cleansing System differs in its mechanical action because it utilizes a patented multi-port splashguard that screws onto the bottle to irrigate the wound while the predicate devices use either a pump-spray bottle or they directly pour the fluid onto the wound site. ### Conclusion: The IRRISEPT™ Wound Debridement and Cleansing System has the same intended use, principles of operation, and technological characteristics as the predicate devices. The IRRISEPT™ Wound Debridement and Cleansing System was developed with Chlorhexidine Gluconate, a proven effective preservative, already premixed and packaged for ease of use on wounds. {2}------------------------------------------------ # DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the seal of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
