Intended Use
The MacroPore Barrier Film is indicated for use as an orbital implant wrap to cover orbital implants used in enucleation surgery and to protect the surrounding orbital tissue from the surface of the implant.
Device Description
MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film is a resorbable implant in sheet form manufactured from polylactides (PLA). MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film can be cut with scissors to the desired shape and size. MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film is fully malleable when heated to approximately 55°C (for example, by the use of sterile hot water), and thus can be conformed three dimensionally to most any anatomical orientation. The MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film is provided in various shapes such as squares, rectangles, ovals, and circles. The MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film will be provided in sheets of 30mm x 30mm to 200mm x 200mm so that the surgeon may cut specific shapes and sizes. The thickness of the MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film will range from 0.05 mm to 1.0 mm. The MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film will be provided in solid sheets and in porous sheets that have pores that range in pore size from 0.5mm to 3.0mm with pores distributed randomly or uniformly throughout the film in an offset or aligned pattern. The pores are spaced at a distance of 1.5mm or greater. The MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film is fabricated from polylactide (PLA).

No
The device description focuses on the material properties and physical characteristics of a resorbable barrier film, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

Yes
The device is used to protect surrounding orbital tissue from an orbital implant and is surgically implanted, making it a therapeutic device.

No

Explanation: The device is described as an orbital implant wrap used in enucleation surgery to cover orbital implants and protect tissues. This indicates it is a therapeutic or protective device, not one used for diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it is a resorbable implant in sheet form made from polylactides (PLA), which is a physical material, not software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. They are used outside the body.
  • MacroPore Barrier Film's Use: The description clearly states the MacroPore Barrier Film is an "orbital implant wrap" used during surgery to cover orbital implants and protect surrounding tissue. This is an implantable device used inside the body.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: The device's purpose is structural and protective, not to analyze biological samples or provide diagnostic information.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies described focus on the material's physical properties (viscosity, strength, mechanical properties) and not on diagnostic accuracy or performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, etc., which are typical for IVDs.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the MacroPore Barrier Film is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

In Vitro Testing:

  • Testing was performed to determine the effect of prolonged heating in saline at 60°C on inherent viscosity. Results demonstrated that viscosity stayed within an appropriate range over 120 minutes.
  • Aging testing was performed on MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film, demonstrating it is strong enough for the indications for use.
  • Mechanical testing was performed, determining the MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film to be substantially equivalent to the mechanical strengths of the predicate devices under indication for use conditions.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION

Design Characteristics

MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film is a resorbable implant in sheet form manufactured from polylactides (PLA). MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film can be cut with scissors to the desired shape and size. MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film is fully malleable when heated to approximately 55°C (for example, by the use of sterile hot water), and thus can be conformed three dimensionally to most any anatomical orientation.

The MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film is provided in various shapes such as squares, rectangles, ovals, and circles. The MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film will be provided in sheets of 30mm x 30mm to 200mm x 200mm so that the surgeon may cut specific shapes and sizes. The thickness of the MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film will range from 0.05 mm to 1.0 mm. The MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film will be provided in solid sheets and in porous sheets that have pores that range in pore size from 0.5mm to 3.0mm with pores distributed randomly or uniformly throughout the film in an offset or aligned pattern. The pores are spaced at a distance of 1.5mm or greater

Material Composition

The MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film is fabricated from polylactide (PLA).

In Vitro Testing

Because the MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film is intended to be heated in the surgical suite to temperatures above the material's glass transition temperature to facilitate shaping to anatomic structures, testing was performed to determine the effect of prolonged heating in saline at 60°C on inherent viscosity. The testing demonstrates that viscosity stayed within an appropriate range over 120 minutes. Therefore, the relatively brief exposure anticipated during the surgical preparation of MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film is not expected to have a significant effect on its mechanical properties.

Aging testing was performed on MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film. Testing demonstrated that the MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film is strong enough for the indications for use.

Mechanical testing was performed on the MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film which determined the MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film to be substantially equivalent to the mechanical strengths of the predicate devices under indication for use conditions.

EQUIVALENCE TO MARKETED PRODUCT

MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film shares indications and design principles with the following predicate devices, which have been determined by FDA to be substantially equivalent to the following pre-amendment devices: Bio-Vascular Ocu-Guard and Bio-Eye II Orbital Implant: Class II medical devices that were cleared for marketing in the United States.

Indications For Use

MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film shares identical indications for use principles with the predicate devices as both the MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film and the predicate devices are indicated for the same surgical procedures.

Design and Materials

The physical designs of MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film and the predicate devices (Bio-Vascular Ocu-Guard and Bio-Eye II Orbital Implant) are substantially equivalent, consisting of thin semirigid sheets. The MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film and the bovine pericardium predicates also share design features of allowing for contouring. The MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film is fully contourable when heated to approximately 55°C. The dimensions of the predicate devices are also comparable to the MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film as both devices are provided in rectangular sheets that are several centimeters in size. The mechanical characteristics of the MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices with respect to mechanical strength as measured by tensile and suture pull out testing. In addition to physical characteristics, both the predicate device and the MacroPore Surgical Barrier Film can be cut to specific shapes and sizes by the end user.
