Intended Use
CP Medical's synthetic absorbable monofilament is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation and/or ligation but not for use in cardiovascular or neurological surgery, microsurgery or ophthalmic surgery. MonoSwift™ is intended to be used for surgical wound closure.
Device Description
The proposed device is a synthetic absorbable monofilament surgical suture comprised of polydioxanone, trimethylene-carbonate and caprolactone copolymers. These polymers, individually, and as co-formulated herein, are substantially equivalent to other synthetic absorbable monofilament sutures in commercial distribution today.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a surgical suture made of polymers and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

No
The device, a surgical suture, is used for soft tissue approximation and ligation, which are procedures that support healing but do not directly treat a disease or condition.

No
The device is a surgical suture used for approximation and/or ligation of soft tissue, indicating a therapeutic or closure function rather than a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "synthetic absorbable monofilament surgical suture comprised of polydioxanone, trimethylene-carbonate and caprolactone copolymers," which is a physical medical device, 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 examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided information clearly describes a surgical suture used for soft tissue approximation and/or ligation and surgical wound closure. This is a device that is implanted or used directly on the body during a surgical procedure.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological specimens, laboratory testing, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro analysis.

Therefore, based on the provided information, this device falls under the category of a surgical implant or surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 878.4840 Absorbable polydioxanone surgical suture.

(a)
Identification. An absorbable polydioxanone surgical suture is an absorbable, flexible, sterile, monofilament thread prepared from polyester polymer poly (p-dioxanone) and is intended for use in soft tissue approximation, including pediatric cardiovascular tissue where growth is expected to occur, and ophthalmic surgery. It may be coated or uncoated, undyed or dyed, and with or without a standard needle attached.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for the 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.

| Date Prepared: | March 5, 2003 |
| Device Description: | The proposed device is a synthetic absorbable monofilament surgical
suture comprised of polydioxanone, trimethylene-carbonate and
caprolactone copolymers. These polymers, individually, and as co-
formulated herein, are substantially equivalent to other synthetic
absorbable monofilament sutures in commercial distribution today. |
| Predicate Devices: | The proposed device is substantially equivalent to CP Medical's
polydioxanone surgical suture and is similar in absorption rates to CP
Medical's collagen suture material. |
| Indications: | MonoSwift™ is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation and/or
ligation but not for use in cardiovascular or neurological surgery,
microsurgery or ophthalmic surgery. |
| Intended Use: | MonoSwift™ is intended to be used for surgical wound closure. |
| Summary of Clinical and Non-Clinical Studies: | Meets recognized consensus standards for surgical suture, United States
Pharmacopoeia and ISO 10993 biocompatibility. |
| Comparison of Technological Characteristics: | The device has similar characteristics (chemistry, material and
composition) as the predicate devices. Manufacture of this device,
including QC testing, is in substantial compliance with current QSR and
ISO quality standards. |

Dear Ms. Greenawalt:

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. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration. Iisting of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
