No
The device description and intended use focus on the physical properties and biological absorption of a gelatin sponge for hemostasis and adhesion prevention. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data-driven performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML devices.
Yes
The device is indicated for use to control minimal bleeding and to prevent adhesions, which are therapeutic actions.
No
The device is indicated for controlling minimal bleeding and preventing adhesions following ENT surgery, functioning as a haemostatic and packing material. It does not perform any diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical gelatin sponge, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to control bleeding and prevent adhesions in vivo (within the body) during and after surgery. IVDs are used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body), such as blood, urine, or tissue samples, to diagnose diseases or conditions.
- Device Description: The device is an absorbable gelatin sponge used as a packing material and for haemostatic effect in vivo. This is a surgical device, not a diagnostic test performed on samples.
The description clearly indicates a device used directly on a patient during a surgical procedure, which is not the function of an IVD.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Gelita-Spon® Absorbable Gelatin Sponge USP is indicated for use to control minimal bleeding by tamponade effect, blood absorption and platelet aggregation following ENT surgery and also to prevent adhesions in the nasal cavity.

Device Description
Gelita-Spon® Absorbable Gelatin Sponge USP is a sterile absorbable gelatin sponge composed of highly purified pH neutral pharmaceutical gelatin of porcine origin with haemostatic effect suitable for the control of bleeding and as a packing material. It is able to absorb blood corresponding to about 50 times its own weight and when implanted in vivo, it is completely absorbed within approximately 3 weeks. Gelita-Spon is identical to the predicate device in components, composition, specification, manufacture and packaging. Additional testing to confirm compliance with all test criteria in the USP, specifically including certain biocompatibility tests the methodology of which are slightly different from ISO 10993, was performed following FDA guidance in order to append 'USP' to the product name.

(a)
Identification. Ear, nose, and throat synthetic polymer material is a device material that is intended to be implanted for use as a space-occupying substance in the reconstructive surgery of the head and neck. The device is used, for example, in augmentation rhinoplasty and in tissue defect closures in the esophagus. The device is shaped and formed by the suregon to conform to the patient's needs. This generic type of device is made of material such as polyamide mesh or foil and porous polyethylene.(b)

Dear Mr. Greenrose:
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 (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
