Madegom

Madegom manufactures two primary types of medical devices: Penrose drain tubing and dental dams. The Penrose drain tubing is a flexible, non-sterile tube made of latex or silicone, designed for passive wound drainage during surgical procedures. Dental dams are thin sheets made of latex or nitrile, used to isolate a patient’s teeth and maintain a dry working field during dental treatments.

Madegom is based in the United States. Since the company operates within the U.S., its medical devices are subject to FDA regulations. The location also influences the regulatory pathways available, such as the 510(k) premarket notification process, which Madegom uses to list its devices.

Madegom’s devices—Penrose drain tubing and dental dams—are classified as Class I medical devices under FDA regulations. This classification is typically assigned to devices posing minimal risk to users, such as those with well-established safety profiles or low-risk procedures. Class I devices often require less stringent premarket scrutiny, such as the 510(k) pathway, to demonstrate substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicates.

Madegom’s devices are listed in the FDA’s 510(k) premarket notification database. This registry tracks devices that have undergone the 510(k) process, demonstrating their substantial equivalence to previously cleared products. Listing in this database confirms the device’s compliance with FDA requirements for market authorization in the U.S.
