The summary describes a suture, a physical medical device, and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other computational technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices.
No
The device is described as sutures used for "general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation," which are instrumental tools for surgical procedures rather than devices providing a therapeutic effect themselves. Therapeutic devices typically involve treating a condition or disease directly, such as pacemakers or insulin pumps.
No
The intended use describes the device as a suture for soft tissue approximation and ligation, which are surgical functions, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device is described as "SERRALSILK™ sutures," which are physical medical devices used for soft tissue approximation and ligation. There is no mention of software in the provided summary.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use describes the device as being used for "general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation" within the body during surgical procedures. This is a direct medical intervention, not a test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing diagnostic information
- Being used in a laboratory setting
Therefore, SERRALSILK™ sutures are a surgical device used in vivo (within the living body), not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
SERRALSILK™ sutures are indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in cardiovascular, ophthalmic and neurological procedures.

§ 878.5030 Natural nonabsorbable silk surgical suture.
(a)
Identification. Natural nonabsorbable silk surgical suture is a nonabsorbable, sterile, flexible multifilament thread composed of an organic protein called fibroin. This protein is derived from the domesticated speciesBombyx mori (B. mori ) of the familyBombycidae. Natural nonabsorbable silk surgical suture is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation. Natural nonabsorbable silk surgical suture meets the United States Pharmacopeia (U.S.P.) monograph requirements for Nonabsorbable Surgical Suture (class I). Natural nonabsorbable silk surgical suture may be braided or twisted; it may be provided uncoated or coated; and it may be undyed or dyed with an FDA listed color additive.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is FDA's “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Surgical Sutures; Guidance for Industry and FDA.” See § 878.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.
