Intended Use
Helix NGM Compact Surgical Kit Cases are indicated for organization of surgical and/or prosthetic instruments during sterilization, storage and transport. The use of this product facilitates storage and organization of instruments during and after surgical procedures. Neodent Instrument Kit Cases are intended to allow sterilization of the enclosed medical devices. Neodent Instrument Kit Cases require the use of FDA cleared wrap to maintain the sterility of the enclosed devices. The kits are to be enclosed in a sterilization wrap that is FDA-cleared for the indicated cycles, and moist heat (steam) sterilized using one of the following cycles: Fractionated vacuum (pre-vacuum)- Exposure at 132 °C for 4 minutes, 20-minute dry time. Gravity displacement - Exposure at 132 °C for 15 minutes, 20-minute dry time. Neodent Instrument Kit Cases are intended for sterilization of non-porous loads. The combined weight of the GM Surgical Kit Case and the associated instruments is 268.0 g. The weight of the empty Kit Case is 208.15 grams. Neodent Instrument Kit Cases should not be stacked during sterilization.
Device Story
Reusable rigid container system; comprises base, removable inner tray, and lid. Manufactured from autoclavable polysulfone and polyphenylsulfone; includes medical-grade silicone grommets for instrument retention. Used by healthcare providers to organize, protect, and sterilize dental surgical/prosthetic instruments. Input: instruments placed in tray; device acts as a protective, perforated barrier during steam sterilization cycles (fractionated vacuum or gravity displacement). Output: sterilized, organized instrument kit. Facilitates safe transport and storage post-sterilization. Requires FDA-cleared sterilization wrap. Benefits: ensures instrument organization and sterility maintenance for surgical procedures.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Validated via manual cleaning (blood soil removal), sterilization efficacy (ANSI/AAMI/ISO 17665-1/2), life-cycle testing (100 cycles of cleaning/sterilization), and biocompatibility (ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-5). All tests passed acceptance criteria.
Technological Characteristics
Rigid container system; materials: polysulfone (base), polyphenylsulfone (lid), medical-grade silicone (grommets). Perforated design for steam penetration. Dimensions: 195 x 90 x 54 mm. Reusable (up to 100 cycles). Sterilization: moist heat (steam) via fractionated vacuum or gravity displacement. No software or electronics.
Indications for Use
Indicated for organization, storage, transport, and steam sterilization of surgical and prosthetic instruments in healthcare settings. Intended for non-porous loads. Contraindicated for stacking during sterilization.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A sterilization wrap (pack, sterilization wrapper, bag, or accessories, is a device intended to be used to enclose another medical device that is to be sterilized by a health care provider.

Dear Jennifer Jackson:
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).
