Intended Use
The PCO-OS and PCO-OB meshes are used for the reinforcement of tissues during surgical repair. They are indicated for the treatment of incisional hernias, abdominal wall repair, and parietal (i.e. pertaining to the walls) reinforcement of tissues. The non-resorbable polyester mesh provides long-term reinforcement of soft tissues. On the opposite side, the resorbable hydrophilic film minimizes tissue attachment to the mesh in case of direct contact with the viscera.
Device Description
The PARIETEX COMPOSITE PCO-OS and PCO-OB Meshes are surgical meshes used during open (laparotomy) procedures or during laparoscopic procedures. The meshes are made from polyethylene terephtalate (polyester) and a collagen-based hydrogel component. The hydrophilic collagen film does not affect the physical performance characteristics of the meshes but serves to separate the coated side of the meshes from underlying tissues to minimize tissue attachment and ingrowth. The PCO-OB and PCO-OS Meshes are offered in several sizes and shapes to accommodate the type and approach of the surgical procedure. The Sofradim PCO-OS and PCO-OB Meshes are identical to the predicate PARIETEX COMPOSITE (PCO) meshes (K002699 and K040998) with the exception of the addition of a bi-dimensional textile flap to the current threedimensional reinforcement on the PCO Mesh. This flap is manufactured and sewn to the three-dimensional textile with the same polyester yarn as described in the predicate PCO meshes as well as other PARIETEX meshes (K982532 and K003990). The bidimensional flap has been added to the parent PCO Meshes to ease placement and fixation of the mesh during open surgery.
More Information

No
The summary describes a surgical mesh made of polyester and a collagen-based hydrogel. There is no mention of any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML. The changes described are purely mechanical (addition of a flap).

No.
The device is a surgical mesh used for tissue reinforcement during surgical repair of hernias and abdominal wall defects, which is a structural implant rather than a device that delivers therapy.

No

The device is a surgical mesh used for tissue reinforcement, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device is a surgical mesh made of polyester and collagen, which are physical materials, not software. The description details its physical composition and intended use in surgical procedures.

Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the "reinforcement of tissues during surgical repair," specifically for hernias and abdominal wall repair. This is a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body).
  • Device Description: The description details a surgical mesh made of polyester and a collagen-based hydrogel, designed for placement within the body during surgery.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze samples. This device is clearly designed for surgical implantation in vivo.

Summary of Performance Studies

The polyester mesh material used is not modified and remains the same as that described in the current PCO file (K002699(textile) and K040998-(collagen source)). A study was conducted and demonstrated that the sewing of the additional flap does not adversely affect the safety or effectiveness of the device.

PCO-OB and PCO-OS Meshes are offered in several sizes and shapes to accommodate the type and approach of the surgical procedure.

The Sofradim PCO-OS and PCO-OB Meshes are identical to the predicate PARIETEX COMPOSITE (PCO) meshes (K002699 and K040998) with the exception of the addition of a bi-dimensional textile flap to the current threedimensional reinforcement on the PCO Mesh. This flap is manufactured and sewn to the three-dimensional textile with the same polyester yarn as described in the predicate PCO meshes as well as other PARIETEX meshes (K982532 and K003990). The bidimensional flap has been added to the parent PCO Meshes to ease placement and fixation of the mesh during open surgery.

INTENDED USE ડ.

The PARIETEX COMPOSITE PCO-OS and PCO-OB Meshes are used for the reinforcement of tissues during surgical repair. They are indicated for the treatment of incisional hernias, abdominal wall repair, and parietal (i.e., pertaining to the walls) reinforcement of tissues. The non-resorbable polyester meshes provide long-term reinforcement of soft tissues. On the opposite side, the resorbable hydrophilic film minimizes tissue attachment to the meshes in case of direct contact with the viscera.

TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE 6.

The PCO-OS and PCO-OB Meshes are identical to the predicate PCO meshes with the exception of the addition of a bi-dimensional textile flap to the current threedimensional reinforcement. This flap is manufactured and sewn to the original threedimensional textile with the same polyester yarn as described for the predicate PCO meshes. The absorbable hydrophilic film is unchanged.

PERFORMANCE TESTING 7.

The polyester mesh material used is not modified and remains the same as that described in the current PCO file (K002699(textile) and K040998-(collagen source)). A study was conducted and demonstrated that the sewing of the additional flap does not adversely affect the safety or effectiveness of the device.
