Intended Use
Tornier® Surgical Mesh is intended for use where temporary wound support is required to reinforce soft tissues where weakness exists or for the repair of hernia or other fascial defects that require the addition of a reinforcing or bridging material to obtain the desired surgical result. Tornier® Surgical Mesh is also intended for reinforcement of soft tissues, in conjunction with sutures and/or suture anchors during tendon repair surgery; including the reinforcement of rotator cuff, patellar, Achilles, biceps and quadriceps tendons. Tornier® Surgical Mesh is not intended for use as a replacement for normal body structures or to provide the full mechanical strength to support the rotator cuff, patellar, Achilles, biceps, or quadriceps tendons. Sutures, used to repair the tear, and sutures or bone anchors, used to attach the tissue to the bone, provide mechanical strength for the tendon repair.
Device Description
Tornier® Surgical Mesh is a bi-layer, synthetic absorbable reinforced woven fabric made from poly(4-hydroxybutyrate) fibers. The construction permits the mesh to be cut into any desired shape or size without unraveling. The device is supplied sterile, for single-patient use for the reinforcement of soft tissue where weakness exists.
More Information

No
The device description and intended use describe a physical surgical mesh and do not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities.

Yes
The device is intended for the repair of hernias and reinforcement of soft tissues and tendons, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

Explanation: The device, Tornier® Surgical Mesh, is described as a surgical mesh intended for reinforcing soft tissues and repairing defects. It is a material used in surgical procedures, not for identifying, monitoring, or predicting diseases or conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "bi-layer, synthetic absorbable reinforced woven fabric made from poly(4-hydroxybutyrate) fibers," indicating it is a physical mesh product, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical mesh used for reinforcing soft tissues and repairing defects. This is a surgical implant, not a device used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility.
  • Device Description: The description details a synthetic absorbable woven fabric for surgical implantation. This aligns with a surgical device, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or providing diagnostic information.

Therefore, the Tornier® Surgical Mesh is a surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Description

Tornier® Surgical Mesh is a bi-layer, synthetic absorbable reinforced woven fabric made from poly(4-hydroxybutyrate) fibers. The construction permits the mesh to be cut into any desired shape or size without unraveling. The device is supplied sterile, for single-patient use for the reinforcement of soft tissue where weakness exists.

Intended Use (Indications)

Tornier® Surgical Mesh is intended for use where temporary wound support is required to reinforce soft tissues where weakness exists or for the repair of hernia or other fascial defects that require the addition of a reinforcing or bridging material to obtain the desired surgical result.

Tornier® Surgical Mesh is also intended for reinforcement of soft tissues, in conjunction with sutures and/or suture anchors during tendon repair surgery; including the reinforcement of rotator cuff, patellar, Achilles, biceps and quadriceps tendons.

Tornier® Surgical Mesh is not intended for use as a replacement for normal body structures or to provide the full mechanical strength to support the rotator cuff, patellar, Achilles, biceps, or quadriceps tendons. Sutures, used to repair the tear, and sutures or bone anchors, used to attach the tissue to the bone, provide mechanical strength for the tendon repair.

Substantial Equivalence

This submission supports the position that the Tornier™ Surgical Mesh System is substantially equivalent to previously cleared devices, including those listed above. Substantial equivalence has been demonstrated by conduct of applicable biocompatibility testing as outlined in ISO10993. In addition, Tornier has conducted testing consistent with the requirements of the Guidance Document entitled: "Guidance for the Preparation of a Premarket Notification for a Surqical Mesh" (March 2. 1999) A number of predicate devices list the same range of clinical uses.

Conclusions

Tornier, Inc. believes that the information provided establishes that similar legally marketed devices have been used for the same clinical applications as the Tornier™ Surgical Mesh System. The materials from which the Tornier device is fabricated have an established history of use, and the devices have been tested in accordance with applicable FDA guidelines.
