No
The summary describes a collagen matrix for soft tissue repair and reinforcement. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any computational analysis of data. The performance studies focus on biocompatibility and viral inactivation, not algorithmic performance.

No.
A therapeutic device is typically understood to provide a "treatment or cure" for a disease or condition, or alleviate symptoms. CosMatrix is described as a device to "reinforce soft tissue where weakness exists," which is a supportive rather than a therapeutic function.

No
Explanation: CosMatrix is a biologic implant used to reinforce soft tissue, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly states that CosMatrix is a "remodelable collagen matrix derived from bovine skin" and is supplied in "sheet form," indicating it is a physical implantable material, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that CosMatrix is for "implantation to reinforce soft tissue where weakness exists in patients requiring soft tissue repair or reinforcement in plastic and reconstructive surgery." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for structural support.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces this by stating it's a "remodelable collagen matrix derived from bovine skin to be used to reinforce soft tissues where weakness exists." It's a physical implant.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs) are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform any such diagnostic testing on specimens.

The information provided consistently points to CosMatrix being a surgical implant, not an IVD.

Summary of Performance Studies

A rigorous biocompatibility assessment performed by an independent certified laboratory demonstrated the biocompatibility of CosMatrix. The tests performed included: cytotoxicity, sensitization, intracutaneous reactivity, acute systemic toxicity, genotoxicity, intramuscular toxicity, hemolysis, and pyrogenicity. The manufacturing methods for CosMatrix were also tested by an independent laboratory to assure safe levels of viral inactivation.

Summary of Technological Characteristics and Biocompatibility

CosMatrix is substantially equivalent to other surgical meshes with respect to its design as a thin, flexible, polymeric sheet which can be sutured to surrounding tissues to secure it in place. In addition, the device is fully remodelable over a period of months.

A rigorous biocompatibility assessment performed by an independent certified laboratory demonstrated the biocompatibility of CosMatrix. The tests performed included: cytotoxicity, sensitization, intracutaneous reactivity, acute systemic toxicity, genotoxicity, intramuscular toxicity, hemolysis, and pyrogenicity. The manufacturing methods for CosMatrix were also tested by an independent laboratory to assure safe levels of viral inactivation.

Dear Dr. James:

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. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set

forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market,

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0115. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers.
