The device is indicated as a dura substitute for the repair of dura mater.

Device Description

The proposed device is composed of bovine pericardium processed through a proprietary tissue preservation and sterilization process which includes gamma irradiation. The proposed device is composed of collagenous connective tissue with three-dimensional intertwined fibers and can be fixed regardless of the direction of the device. Collagenous connective tissue with multidirectional fibers retains the mechanical strength and elasticity of the native tissue, while providing the basic structure to support replacement by new endogenous tissue. The proposed device in its unopened, undamaged package is sterile.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document describes the K132850 submission for a Bovine Pericardium Suturable Dural Graft, Tutopatch™ DM Graft, or Tutoplast® Bovine Pericardium DM. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than establishing novel acceptance criteria with a specific study framework for entirely new performance standards.

Here's a breakdown based on the information provided, tailored to your request but highlighting the context of a 510(k) submission:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

In a 510(k) submission for substantial equivalence, "acceptance criteria" are typically defined by demonstrating performance comparable to legally marketed predicate devices, rather than predefined absolute thresholds for a novel device. The document uses predicate device performance as the benchmark for "substantial equivalence."

Test CategoryTestAcceptance Criteria (Implicit by Equivalence to Predicate)Reported Device PerformanceConclusion (Device meets criteria)
BiocompatibilityCytotoxicity - Inhibition of Cell Growth AssayNo leachable materials released in cytotoxic concentrations (comparable to predicate)No leachable materials were released in cytotoxic concentrations from the device. The proposed device is non-cytotoxic.Substantially equivalent
Pyrogenicity (LAL Assay)Endotoxin level < 2.15 EU per device (comparable to predicate, and for subsequent device lots)The device did not elicit a response. All device lots will be tested to ensure the endotoxin level is <2.15 EU per device.Substantially equivalent

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • In-vitro tests (Cytotoxicity, Suture Pull-out, Burst Strength, Shrink Temperature, Max Load, Pyrogenicity): The document does not specify the exact sample sizes (n-numbers) for these in vitro tests. This is common in 510(k) summaries where detailed raw data is often in the full submission, not the summary.
  • Pre-clinical Implantation Study (Animal Model): The sample size for the animal model is not specified. The data provenance is "animal model" (prospective, experimental).
  • Sabatino et al. (2014):
    • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated how many patients received the proposed device, but it was a "prospective cohort study" comparing the proposed device (Tutopatch) to autologous galea-pericranium.
    • Data Provenance: The study was published in "Clin. Neuro and Neurosurgery," indicating it was a clinical study. It appears to be prospective data, and the device was marketed as "Tutopatch" in the European market.
  • Filipi et al. (2000):
    • Sample Size: 32 patients.
    • Data Provenance: Retrospective evaluation of patients who received Tutoplast bovine pericardium dural grafts (the proposed device as marketed in ex-US countries). The study was published in "Neurosurg Rev."

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

This type of information (number and qualifications of experts for ground truth) is typically relevant for diagnostic or AI-based devices where human interpretation is the "ground truth." For a dural graft product like this, the "ground truth" is established by:

  • Biomechanical properties: Objective measurements from standardized laboratory tests.
  • Biocompatibility: Established by standardized cytotoxicity and pyrogenicity assays.
  • Animal study: Assessment by veterinary pathologists/researchers.
  • Clinical studies: Assessment by neurosurgeons or clinicians involved in the patient follow-up, observing outcomes like CSF leakage, adverse events, surgical handling, etc. The studies cited (Sabatino et al., Filipi et al.) describe methodologies where clinical outcomes are observed and reported by medical professionals, implicitly establishing the "ground truth" for clinical performance. The number and specific qualifications of the adjudicating experts for these clinical studies are not detailed in this 510(k) summary.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

As this is not a diagnostic device or imaging-based assessment where consensus reads are common:

  • In-vitro tests: No adjudication method as these are objective measurements.
  • Animal study: Adjudication is typically part of the pathology review process, but not explicitly described here.
  • Clinical studies (Sabatino et al., Filipi et al.): No formal "adjudication method" like 2+1 or 3+1 is typically used for overall clinical outcomes in these types of surgical device studies. Clinical outcomes are recorded by treating physicians or study investigators, and significant events might undergo review, but not in the sense of a consensus ground truth reading.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done

No. An MRMC comparative effectiveness study is designed for evaluating the impact of a diagnostic tool (often AI) on human reader performance for diagnostic tasks. This device is a surgical implant (dural graft). The clinical studies cited evaluate the performance of the graft itself, not its impact on human reader accuracy.

6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Was Done

This question is not applicable. This device is a passive surgical implant, not an algorithm or AI system.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

  • Biomechanical properties: Objective measurements (e.g., N for force, °C for temperature).
  • Biocompatibility: Results of standardized biological assays (e.g., cell culture, LAL assay).
  • Animal study: Gross pathology, histopathology, and clinical observation data.
  • Clinical studies (Sabatino et al., Filipi et al.): Clinical outcomes data (e.g., absence of CSF leakage, adverse events, ease of use, material integration, resorption, overall clinical judgment by surgeons).

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This question is not applicable as this is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set. The data presented are for evaluating the performance of the physical dural graft.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

This question is not applicable as there is no training set for an AI/ML device.

Performance Data Supporting Substantial Equivalence Determination:

The proposed device is equivalent to the predicate devices in intended use, material, design, and function. The biomechanical properties of the proposed and predicate devices were evaluated in a series of in vitro tests and implantation in an animal model. Burst strength, uniaxial strength and suture pullout strength were substantially equivalent for the proposed and predicate devices. The table below summarizes the testing used to determine substantial equivalence of the proposed device.

TestResultsConclusions
Cytotoxicity - Inhibitionof Cell Growth AssayNo leachable materials were released in cytotoxicconcentrations from the device. The proposed device isnon-cytotoxic.Substantiallyequivalent
Suture Pull out (N)The proposed device suture pull-out max load is comparableto the DuraMatrix predicate device.Substantiallyequivalent

Pyrogenicity of the device was evaluated using the Limulus Amoebocyte Lysate (LAL) assay on the final sterilized device. The device did not elicit a response. All device lots will be tested to ensure the endotoxin level is <2.15 EU per device.

The functional properties of the proposed and predicate device were evaluated in a pre-clinical implantation study and the proposed device performed as well as a similar dura substitute. Clinical and gross pathology, cerebrospinal fluid leakage and the local effects of implantation were assessed and results demonstrate the proposed and predicate devices are substantially equivalent. The proposed device was increasingly resorbed. At the end time point the proposed device demonstrated moderate resorption and marked integration.

Clinical evaluation of the proposed device confirms the clinical substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. Sabatino et. al. (2014)1 present the results of a prospective cohort study which compared the clinical outcomes from duraplasty using autologous galea-pericranium and Tutopatch (the proposed device as marketed in the European market). The study evaluated postoperative results (with a minimum follow-up of 12 months), ease of use and procedure costs. The proposed device performed adequately with no evidence of adverse health effects. Filipi et. al. (2000)² present a retrospective evaluation that summarized the outcomes for 32 patients who received Tutoplast bovine pericardium dural grafts (proposed device as marketed in ex-US countries) as part of a variety of neurosurgical procedures. The proposed device was easily sutured with standard suture material and formed a watertight seal. The proposed device provided "excellent material implantation characteristics and favorable clinical outcome" and is recommended as a safe and suitable material for duraplasty. Filipi et. al. concluded, "these results confirm the excellent suitability of Tutoplast bovine pericardium for dural substitution". Results from in vitro, animal studies and clinical evaluation demonstrate that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices for use as a dura substitute.
