Intended Use
OSTENE® is indicated for use as a water-soluble implant material for use in the control of bleeding from bone surfaces and as a water-soluble space occupying material as an adjunct during the natural healing process.
Device Description
Ostene® is a water-soluble odorless, opaque wax-like material consisting of a sterile mixture of alkylene oxide copolymers, derived from ethylene oxide and propylene oxide. It is best used immediately following removal from the package, and can be softened and increased in stickiness by warming and by additional handling and manipulation, if so desired. Ostene® is provided sterile by irradiation and must not be resterilized.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a physical, water-soluble implant material and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for use in the control of bleeding from bone surfaces and as a water-soluble space occupying material as an adjunct during the natural healing process, which are therapeutic functions.

No

Explanation: The device is indicated for controlling bleeding and as a space-occupying material during healing, not for diagnosing a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "water-soluble odorless, opaque wax-like material" and a "sterile mixture of alkylene oxide copolymers," indicating it 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 controlling bleeding from bone surfaces and as a space-occupying material during healing. This is a direct therapeutic or surgical application within the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a sterile, water-soluble implant material applied directly to bone surfaces.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information about a physiological state, health, disease, or condition.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens from the human body. This device is used in vivo (within the body) during a surgical procedure.

§ 874.3620 Ear, nose, and throat synthetic polymer material.

(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)
Classification. Class II.

Description of the device:

Ostene® is a water-soluble odorless, opaque wax-like material consisting of a sterile mixture of alkylene oxide copolymers, derived from ethylene oxide and propylene oxide. It is best used immediately following removal from the package, and can be softened and increased in stickiness by warming and by additional handling and manipulation, if so desired. Ostene® is provided sterile by irradiation and must not be resterilized.

Intended use:

Ostene® is intended for use as a water-soluble space occupying material as an adjunct during the natural healing process and it provides for control of bleeding from bone surfaces by acting as a mechanical barrier.

Substantial equivalence:

The Ostene® in this application has the same intended use fundamental scientific technology as the legally marketed AOC™ Bone Wax (Ostene®) and the coating of AOC™ Porous Polyethylene Surgical Implants. The classification of the Ostene® as water-soluble synthetic polymer material for use as a space occupying material is supported by its comparison to the legally marketed device Sepragel (K043035) and MeroGel (K002972).

The Ostene® in this application as a bone hemostatic agent is identical to, and has the same intended use and indications for use as the predicate device AOC™ Bone Wax (Ostene®). The biocompatibility of the alkylene oxide copolymer blend is in accordance with the standards set forth in ISO-10993 Biological Testing of Medical and Dental Materials and Devices.
