PD SYNTH IS SYNTHETIC ABSORBABLE (MONOFILAMENT POLYDIOXANONE) SURGICAL SUTURE, STERILE AND FLEXIBLE STRAND, PREPARED FROM THE POLYMER, POLYDIOXANONE, (HOMO POLYMER OF DI OXANONE 100%) AND IS INDICATED FOR USE IN SOFT TISSUE APPROXIMATION, INCLUDING USE IN OPHTHALMIC SURGERY, BUT NOT FOR USE IN CARDIO VASCULAR AND NEUROLOGICAL TISSUES

Device Description

PD Synth is a synthetic absorbable surgical suture, (Monofilament Polydioxanone). PD Synth is a sterile flexible monofilament thread, composed of the polymer, Polydioxanone. The sutures are inert, non collageneous and non antigenic. PD Synth is dyed with D&C Violet #2 and being monofilament it is uncoated

AI/ML Overview

The document provided describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a new absorbable surgical suture, "PD SYNTH," by Sutures India Pvt. Ltd. The submission aims to demonstrate substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices.

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and supporting study details based on the provided text:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Meets performance requirements defined in USP 29 for Length requirement (95% of length stated on label)Meets USP 29 specifications
Meets performance requirements defined in USP 29 for SterilityMeets USP 29 specifications
Biocompatibility:
Biologically compatible when tested as per ISO-10993Biologically compatible (tested as per ISO-10993)
Non-toxic when tested as per ISO-10993 for toxicityNon-toxic (tested as per ISO-10993)
Clinical/Indications:
Indicated for use in soft tissue approximationSame
Indicated for use in ophthalmic proceduresSame
Not for use in cardiovascular and neurological proceduresSame

Note: The document explicitly states "Same" across numerous comparison parameters, indicating that "PD SYNTH" performance matches that of the predicate devices, which are assumed to meet the established acceptance criteria (e.g., USP standards).
One point mentions "Finished suture material does not meet the performance requirements defined in the United States Pharmacopeia current edition U.S.P. 29 for Diameter<861>". However, this is listed as "Same" for all three devices in the comparison table, suggesting it's either an accepted deviation for this type of suture or a characteristic shared by the predicates that doesn't preclude substantial equivalence.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The document does not explicitly state the sample size used for the test set or the data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective). The testing appears to be primarily laboratory-based to conform to USP standards and ISO-10993.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

Not applicable. This type of device (surgical suture) relies on objective physical, chemical, and biological testing against established standards (USP, ISO) rather than expert consensus on subjective interpretations. Ground truth is derived from these standardized tests.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Not applicable. The testing involves objective measurements against predefined specifications from USP and ISO standards. There is no mention of an adjudication process by human experts for the test results.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

Not applicable. This submission is for an absorbable surgical suture, which is a physical medical device, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive technology. Therefore, an MRMC study related to AI assistance is irrelevant.

6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

Not applicable. As mentioned, this is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth used for evaluating the "PD SYNTH" device is based on:

  • Established Industry Standards: United States Pharmacopeia (USP) 29 specifications for various suture properties (tensile strength, diameter, length, needle attachment, sterility, extractable color).
  • International Standards: ISO-10993 for biocompatibility and toxicity.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Conformance to Title 21 CFR § 74.3602 for colorant concentration.
  • Comparison to Predicate Devices: Demonstrating equivalence to existing legally marketed absorbable polydioxanone sutures (PDS II and Unicryl M) across numerous characteristics.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

Not applicable. This is not a machine learning or AI device where a 'training set' would be used. The manufacturing process of the suture does not involve such a concept.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established

Not applicable, for the same reason as point 8.

SUTURES INDIA PVT.LTD SUBMISSION OF PREMARKET NOTIFICATION (510k) FOR ABSORBABLE POLYDIOXANONE SUTURE

PAGE No: 17.0-4 SECTION No: 17.0

CONCLUSION

Sutures India's PD Synth Absorbable (Polydioxanone) suture is composed of the same material, as of the predicate devices and has the same design, as that of the predicate devices. The suture is manufactured in a manner typical of the industry and equivalent to that used to produce predicate devices. Further the subject device is offered with the same colorant D&C Violet No.2 at a concentration that conforms to the requirements of Title 21 CFR § 74.3602, as are of the predicate devices.

Testing of suture diameter, suture length, knot pull tensile strength, needle attachment strength, extractable color and sterility to methods outlined in U.S.P. 29 demonstrates Sutures India's PD Synth (Absorbable Polydioxanone suture) meets or exceeds U.S.P. specifications and are equivalent in terms of the above mentioned predicate devices.

Dear L.G. Chandrasekhar:

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
