No
The device description focuses on the material composition and physical properties of a surgical mesh, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
Yes
Explanation: The device is indicated for the reconstruction of soft tissue deficiencies, such as for the repair of hernias, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
Explanation: The device is described as a surgical mesh used for the reconstruction of soft tissue deficiencies (like hernias). It is a prosthetic device for repair, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical mesh made of polypropylene and polyglycolic acid fibers with a bioresorbable coating. This is a hardware medical device, not software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the "reconstruction of soft tissue deficiencies such as for the repair of hernias." This is a surgical procedure involving the repair of physical structures within the body.
- Device Description: The device is a "dual-component (absorbable and non-absorbable), sterile prosthesis" designed for surgical implantation. It describes the materials and how it functions within the body to support tissue repair.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: An In Vitro Diagnostic device is used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health. The description of Sepramesh™ IP does not involve any such testing of specimens.
Therefore, Sepramesh™ IP is a surgical implant, not an IVD.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Sepramesh™ IP Bioresorbable Coating/Permanent Mesh is indicated for use in the reconstruction of soft tissue deficiencies such as for the repair of hernias.

Device Description
Sepramesh™ IP Bioresorbable Coating/Permanent Mesh (Sepramesh™ IP) is a dualcomponent (absorbable and non-absorbable), sterile prosthesis designed for the reconstruction of soft tissue deficiencies. Sepramesh™ IP is co-knitted using polypropylene and polyglycolic acid (PGA) fibers to result in a two-sided mesh with a polypropylene surface and PGA surface. Genzyme will offer two versions of the device. The first version utilizes violet dyed PGA fibers. The second version utilizes natural beige PGA fibers instead of the original violet version. The mesh is coated on the PGA surface with a bioresorbable coating of chemically modified sodium hyaluronate (HA), carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and a polyethylene glycol (PEG) based hydrogel.
The uncoated side of the mesh allows a prompt fibroblastic response through the interstices of the mesh, encouraging tissue ingrowth, similar to polypropylene mesh alone. The coated side of the mesh provides a hydrophilic bioresorbable layer, separating the mesh from underlying tissue and organ surfaces during the critical wound-healing period resulting in minimal tissue attachment and visceral adhesions to the mesh. Shortly after placement, the biopolymer coating becomes a hydrated gel that is resorbed from the site in less than 30 days. The absorption of the PGA fibers is essentially complete between 50 and 80 days. The polypropylene mesh is permanent and allows for tissue ingrowth.

Dear Mr. Hibbert:
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. Iisting 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.
