Intended Use
Visioplast Acrylic Resin is a resinous material for repairing cranial defects.
Device Description
Visioplast Acrylic Resin is a self-curing resin which is intended for the repair of cranial defects. Like the predicate model, the proposed acrylic resin is provided sterile and contains a liquid and powder component. Visioplast Acrylic Resin is designed for manual mixing technique. When the two components are mixed together, a viscous paste is obtained which hardens within 20 minutes with a cold-curing polimerisation. The chemical constituents are substantially equivalent to those in the predicate apart from the presence of barium sulphate in the powder which provides radiopacity for imaging purposes.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on the chemical composition and physical properties of a self-curing resin for cranial repair, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is a material for repairing cranial defects, which is a structural rather than a functional or therapeutic intervention.

No

Explanation: The device, Visioplast Acrylic Resin, is described as a material for repairing cranial defects, indicating a therapeutic or reconstructive purpose rather than a diagnostic one. Its function is to harden and fill defects, not to detect, diagnose, or monitor a medical condition.

No

The device is a physical material (acrylic resin) used for cranial repair, not a software application.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "repairing cranial defects." This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a "resinous material" that is "self-curing" and "hardens within 20 minutes." This describes a material used for physical reconstruction within the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such function.

The Visioplast Acrylic Resin is a surgical implant/material used for cranioplasty.

Dear Dr. Brauer:

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, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such 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 statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.
