Intended Use
PARIETEX™ Plug and Patch is indicated for the reinforcement of soft tissues during repair of groin hernia defects by open approach.
Device Description
PARIETEX™ Plug and Patch is a kit composed of: • A pre-cut non absorbable patch made out of polyester monofilament. • A semi-absorbable disk made from the assembly of two textile layers. This disk is composed of polyester monofilament and polylactic acid monofilament.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and equivalence to predicate devices, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for the "reinforcement of soft tissues during repair of groin hernia defects," which is a therapeutic intervention.

No

Explanation: The device, PARIETEX™ Plug and Patch, is described as a surgical implant for reinforcing soft tissues during hernia repair. Its function is to reinforce tissue, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic action.

No

The device description clearly states it is a kit composed of physical components (patch and disk made of polyester and polylactic acid monofilament), indicating it is a hardware medical device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the "reinforcement of soft tissues during repair of groin hernia defects by open approach." This describes a surgical implant used directly on the patient's body during a procedure.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "kit composed of... a pre-cut non absorbable patch made out of polyester monofilament" and a "semi-absorbable disk." These are physical materials implanted into the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The description of this device and its intended use do not involve the analysis of such specimens.

Therefore, the PARIETEX™ Plug and Patch is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
