No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and mechanical performance of a surgical sling and its insertion tools, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
Yes
The device is indicated for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence in women, which is a medical condition, making it a therapeutic device.
No
The device is indicated for the "treatment" of stress urinary incontinence, not for diagnosis. The description focuses on its components and materials for surgical implantation.
No
The device description explicitly states it is composed of physical components like polypropylene tape, an insertion instrument (stainless steel needle with PVC tubing), connector, and sheath, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence in women. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples from the human body.
- Device Description: The device is a surgical implant (pubourethral sling) used in gynecological procedures. It is a physical device implanted in the body, not a reagent, instrument, or system intended for use in the examination of specimens derived from the human body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information.
IVD devices are used to diagnose, monitor, or screen for diseases or conditions by examining samples from the human body. This device is a surgical implant used to treat a condition.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Testing was performed in accordance with ISO standards. The density, thickness, elongation, breaking strength, tear resistance, burst resistance, and tensile strength were evaluated to determine the performance characteristics of the Pubourethral Sling. All of the testing was performed using the URETEX® SUP Sling, the Ethicon Prolenc®, and the Solradim Parietene® prodicate devices for comparative purposes. The test results showcd that the Sofradim and predicate devices were similar in performance characteristics.

TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE 6.
The URETEX® SUP Polypropylene Mesh is substantially equivalent to the T.V.T. Ethicon Prolene Pubourethral Tape, the Sofradim Parietene® Mesh, and the Mentor Sling Device.
The URETEX® SUP Polypropylene Mesh and the TVT device have the same intended use in that they are all used for treatment of stress urinary incontinence as well as reinforcement of tissue during surgical repair.
The URETEX SUP, the TVT Ethicon (Prolene® mesh), the Mentor Sling and the Parietene® Polypropylenc Mesh are all made from polypropylenc sealed monofilament stitches. All of the devices arc single-use only.
PERFORMANCE TESTING r.
Testing was performed in accordance with ISO standards. The density, thickness, elongation, breaking strength, tear resistance, burst resistance, and tensile strength were evaluated to determine the performance characteristics of the Pubourethral Sling. All of the testing was performed using the URETEX® SUP Sling, the Ethicon Prolenc®, and the Solradim Parietene® prodicate devices for comparative purposes. The test results showcd that the Sofradim and predicate devices were similar in performance characteristics.
