Not Found

No
The description focuses on the material and intended use of a surgical suture, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No.
The device, a surgical suture, is used for approximating and ligating tissues, which is a supportive rather than a therapeutic function. It aids in the healing process but does not directly treat a disease or condition.

No
Explanation: The device, COROLENE® sutures, is a surgical suture used for tissue approximation and ligation. Its purpose is to repair or join tissues, not to diagnose a condition or disease.

No

The device is a surgical suture, which is a physical medical device made of polypropylene, 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, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. They are used outside of the body (in vitro).
  • COROLENE® Suture Function: COROLENE® sutures are surgical devices used within the body to approximate and ligate tissues during surgery. They are a physical tool used for repair, not for diagnostic testing of samples.

The provided information clearly describes a surgical suture, not a diagnostic test.

§ 878.5010 Nonabsorbable polypropylene surgical suture.

(a)
Identification. Nonabsorbable polypropylene surgical suture is a monofilament, nonabsorbable, sterile, flexible thread prepared from long-chain polyolefin polymer known as polypropylene and is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation. The polypropylene surgical suture meets United States Pharmacopeia (U.S.P.) requirements as described in the U.S.P. Monograph for Nonabsorbable Surgical Sutures; it may be undyed or dyed with an FDA approved color additive; and the suture may be provided with or without a standard needle attached.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this 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.

New Device Classification

Class II in 21 CFR §878.5010 by the General and Plastic Surgery Devices Panel, Nonabsorbable Polypropylene Surgical Suture (GAW).

Predicate Device Name

PROLENETM, Nonabsorbable Polypropylene Surgical Suture (N16374).

Statement of intended use

COROLENE® sutures are intended for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in cardiovascular and vascular surgery, in ophthalmic surgery, in plastic surgery and in neurological surgery.

COROLENE® has the same intended use as the predicate device PROLENT®

New Device Description

COROLENE® is a monofilament synthetic non-absorbable surgical suture composed of polypropylene. The suture is available undyed or blue dyed with an FDA approved color additive: Phtalocyanine-copper (CI 74160), to enhance visibility. The suture may be provided with or without a standard needle attached.

Summary of Technological Characteristics of New Device compared to Predicate Device

Our new device COROLENE® has similar technological characteristics as the predicate device PROLENE®. Like currently marketed PROLENF® suture, COROLENE® is a sterile monofilament synthetic non-absorbable surgical suture that conforms to the requirements of the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) and the European Pharmacopoeia (EP) for non-absorbable surgical sutures. The polypropylenc material used for both medical devices is commonly used in surgical applications and has been proven to be biocompatible.
