Intended Use
The HydroCoat Mesh is indicated for use in general surgical procedures for reinforcement of soft tissue where weakness exists. The HydroCoat Mesh may be used for the repair of abdominal wall hernia, including inguinal, femoral, and incisional hernia, uterovaginal prolapse, and other fascial deficiencies that require support material.
Device Description
The HydroCoat Mesh is a polypropylene surgical mesh coated with polyurethane and intended for trauma and reconstructive surgical procedures involving soft tissues. The HydroCoat Mesh is fabricated from a knitted monofilament, medical-grade polypropylene fiber that links each porous window of the mesh, allowing for elasticity in both directions. The HydroCoat Mesh is available in various shapes and sizes for use in reinforcing soft tissues where weakness exists. The HydroCoat Mesh can be cut to most any shape or size for specific soft tissue reinforcement needs. The Promethean Surgical Devices HydroCoat Mesh is provided in various shapes such as rectangles, ovals, ellipticals and circles and will be provided in other shapes and sizes as needed for particular soft tissue reinforcement applications. The Promethean Surgical Devices HydroCoat Mesh is provided in sheets of various shapes and sizes as outlined in the table below: | Rectangular | Square | Elliptical | Oval | Round | Keyhole. | |-------------|-----------|------------|----------|-------------|-----------| | 12" x 12" | 12" x 12" | 12" x 10" | 12" x 9" | 8" diameter | 1.5" x 8" | | 12" x 10" | 10" x 10" | 10" x 8" | 10" x 7" | 6" diameter | 3" x 7" | | 10" x 8" | 8" x 8" | 8" x 6" | 8" x 5" | 5" diameter | | | 8" x 6" | 6" x 6" | 7" x 5" | 7" x 4" | 4" diameter | | | 7" x 5" | 4" x 4" | 6" x 4" | 6" x 3" | 3" diameter | | | 6" x 4" | | 5" x 3" | 5" x 2" | | | | 5" x 3" | | 4" x 2" | 4" x 1" | | | | 4" x 2" | | | | | | The thickness of the Promethean Surgical Devices HydroCoat Mesh ranges from 0.015" to 0.030" (0.38mm to 0.76mm) according to the region to be treated. The Promethean Surgical Devices HydroCoat Mesh is provided in flat sheets that contain micropores that range in size from 3mm2-to 5mm. The HydroCoat Mesh has an overall areal density of 1.1001 oz/yd2 (37.3 g/m2).
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description focuses on the material properties, physical characteristics, and intended surgical use of a surgical mesh. There is no mention of any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for the reinforcement of soft tissue where weakness exists, including the repair of various hernias and uterovaginal prolapse, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

Explanation: The device, HydroCoat Mesh, is described as a surgical mesh used for reinforcement of soft tissue, such as in hernia repair. Its intended use is for structural support during surgical procedures, not for identifying or assessing a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical surgical mesh made of polypropylene and polyurethane, available in various shapes and sizes. It is a tangible 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 clearly states the device is for "reinforcement of soft tissue where weakness exists" in surgical procedures. This involves direct interaction with the patient's body during surgery.
  • Device Description: The description details a surgical mesh made of polypropylene and polyurethane, designed to be implanted for structural support.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD is a medical device used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. The provided text does not mention any testing of biological samples or diagnostic purposes.

The HydroCoat Mesh is a surgical implant, not a device used for in vitro diagnostic testing.

EQUIVALENCE TO MARKETED PRODUCT

The Promethean Surgical Devices HydroCoat Mesh shares indications and design principles with the following predicate devices which have been determined by FDA to be substantially equivalent to pre-amendment devices: Mentor Suspend Sling (K980483). Artimplant AB SportMesh / Artelon Tissue Reinforcement (K071887), Artimplant AB SportMesh (K052830), the Mpathy Medical Minimesh (K041632), and the Ethicon Mersilene Mesh (pre-amendment); Class II medical devices that were cleared for marketing in the United States under K980483, K071887, K052830, K041632, and preamendment respectively.

Indications for Use

The HydroCoat Mesh and the predicate devices are substantially equivalent with respect to their indications for use as they are all indicated for the same general surgerv procedures requiring the reinforcement of soft tissues in the same peritoneal anatomy.

Design and Materials

The design of the Promethean Surgical Devices HydroCoat Mesh and the Mentor Suspend Sling (K980483), Artimplant AB SportMesh / Artelon Tissue Reinforcement (K071887), Artimplant AB SportMesh (K052830), the Mpathy Medical Minimesh (K041632), and the Ethicon Mersilene Mesh predicate devices are substantially equivalent as they are all thin, flat sheets of various shapes and sizes that can be cut to shape with surgical scissors and are all fabricated from a polymeric fiber that is knitted into a pattern that creates a meshed network of yarn with a uniform pattern of holes. The Promethean Surgical Devices HydroCoat Mesh, the Mpathy Medical Minimesh (K041632), and the Ethicon Mersilene Mesh devices are substantially equivalent as they share a common design feature of being fabricated from a polypropylene fiber. The Promethean Surgical Devices HydroCoat Mesh and the Mentor Suspend Sling (K980483), Artimplant AB SportMesh / Artelon Tissue Reinforcement (K071887), and Artimplant AB SportMesh (K052830) predicate devices are substantially equivalent as they all share the design feature of utilizing a polyurethane urea materials.
