Indications for Use
The Dukal AAMI Level 4 Open-Back Protective Gowns are intended to protect health care personnel and patients from the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. These gowns are not intended for use in the operating room. The Dukal AAMI Level 4 Open-Back Protective Gown meets the barrier protection requirements of AAMI Level 4 per ANSI/A AMI PB70, Liquid Barrier Performance and Classification of Protective Apparel and Drapes Intended for Use in Health Care Facilities, but has an open back which is non-protective. These gowns are single use, disposable medical devices provided non-sterile.
Device Story
Protective gown designed to shield healthcare personnel and patients from microorganisms, body fluids, and particulates. Constructed from SMS nonwoven laminate with polyethylene film. Features include open-back design (non-protective), neck removal, belt ties, and thumb-hook cuff sleeves. Available in Regular and X-Large sizes. Intended for non-OR clinical environments. Single-use, disposable, non-sterile. Provides AAMI Level 4 barrier protection in critical zones (body/sleeves/seams).
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Conformance demonstrated via ASTM F1671 (viral barrier), AATCC 127 (hydrostatic pressure), ASTM D5034 (tensile strength), ASTM D5587 (tear strength), ASTM D1683 (seam strength), ISO 9073-10 (lint generation), 16 CFR 1610 (flammability), and ISO 10993 (biocompatibility).
Technological Characteristics
Materials: SMS nonwoven with polyethylene film. Barrier: AAMI Level 4 per ANSI/AAMI PB70:2012. Standards: ASTM D3776 (basis weight), ASTM D5034 (tensile), ASTM D5587 (tear), ASTM D1683 (seam), ISO 9073-10 (lint), 16 CFR 1610 (flammability), ISO 10993-5/10 (biocompatibility). Design: Open-back, thumb-hook cuffs, belt ties. Sterilization: Non-sterile.
Indications for Use
Indicated for health care personnel and patients to protect against transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. Not for use in the operating room. Single-use, disposable, non-sterile.
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.

Dear Megan Quevedo:
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
{1}------------------------------------------------
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 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). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.
