Overview

AI-generated summary, 19 Sep 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

The Mepiseal Soft Silicone Sealant is a soft silicone-based adhesive designed to fill uneven periwound skin surfaces and conform to complex anatomical areas. It serves as an accessory to wound dressings, including negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) systems, to seal gaps and prevent leakage or premature dressing displacement.

Applied via a two-component applicator, the sealant is mixed and dispensed onto the skin before dressing application. Supplied as a non-sterile device, it is intended for single-use and falls under FDA classification as a Class II medical device under 21 CFR 878.4780. Authorized through a 510(k) clearance (K152741), it is regulated for use in surgical and plastic surgery settings.

Questions

AI-generated answers, 19 Sep 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

  • What is the primary purpose of the Mepiseal Soft Silicone Sealant in wound care, and how does it improve dressing adherence?

    The Mepiseal Soft Silicone Sealant is designed to fill uneven or irregular periwound skin surfaces, helping it conform to complex anatomical areas. This improves dressing adherence by sealing gaps around wounds, preventing leakage and reducing the risk of premature dressing displacement—particularly useful when paired with negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) systems.

  • Is the Mepiseal Soft Silicone Sealant sterile, and how should it be handled before use?

    The Mepiseal Soft Silicone Sealant is supplied as a non-sterile device. Before use, it must be sterilized by the clinician or facility using an appropriate method (e.g., alcohol swab or sterile technique) to ensure clean application to the skin. Always follow facility protocols for sterilization and preparation.

  • How is the sealant applied, and what type of applicator is included?

    The sealant is applied using a two-component applicator system, where the components are mixed and dispensed directly onto the skin before dressing application. This ensures precise placement and proper adhesion to uneven wound edges or anatomical contours.

  • Is this device intended for single-use or reusable applications, and why?

    The Mepiseal Soft Silicone Sealant is intended for single-use only. This is standard practice for adhesive sealants to maintain sterility, prevent cross-contamination, and ensure optimal performance without degradation from repeated use or reprocessing.

  • What regulatory pathway was followed for FDA clearance, and which medical specialty is it primarily associated with?

    The device received FDA 510(k) clearance (K152741) under the classification 21 CFR 878.4780, determined to be *substantially equivalent* to a predicate product. It is primarily associated with general and plastic surgery, as indicated by its advisory committee designation (SU) and medical specialty description.
