More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a surgical mesh made of polypropylene and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

Yes
The device is indicated for hernioplasty and repair of other fascial defects, which are procedures aimed at treating or alleviating a medical condition, thus classifying it as a therapeutic device.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a synthetic implantable sheet used for the reinforcement of connective tissue structures in hernioplasty and repair of other fascial defects. It is a treatment device, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a synthetic implantable sheet made of monofilament polypropylene, which is a physical material, 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 for "hernioplasty and repair of other fascial defects that require the addition of a reinforcing or bridging material to obtain the desired surgical result." This describes a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body) to repair tissue.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "synthetic implantable sheet for the reinforcement of connective tissue structures." This further confirms its use as an implantable surgical device.
  • 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, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment. IVDs are typically used in vitro (outside the body) for these purposes.

Therefore, the Optilene Meshes are surgical implants, not In Vitro Diagnostic devices.

Dear Ms. Boyle:

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.
