The 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
The device is a medical mesh used for the reconstruction of soft tissue deficiencies, such as hernias, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
The device description clearly states it is for the "reconstruction of soft tissue deficiencies" and "repair of hernias," which are therapeutic actions, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical mesh made of polypropylene and polyglycolic acid fibers with a bioresorbable coating. It is a physical implant, not software.
Based on the provided information, the Ventralight ST Mesh is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the "reconstruction of soft tissue deficiencies, such as the repair of hernias." This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The description details a physical mesh implanted into the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body to provide medical information. The Ventralight ST Mesh is a surgical implant used for structural support and repair within the body.

Device Description
The Ventralight ST Mesh is a low profile, sterile, single use device indicated for use in the reconstruction of soft tissue deficiencies, such as for the repair of hernias. This device is co-knitted using polypropylene (PP) and polyglycolic acid (PGA) fibers to result in a two-sided mesh with a PP surface and a PGA surface. The mesh is coated on the PGA surface with a bioresorbable, chemically modified sodium hyaluronate (HA), carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) based hydrogel. The fascial side of the mesh allows a prompt fibroblastic response through the interstices of the mesh, encouraging complete tissue ingrowth, similar to polypropylene mesh alone. The visceral side of the mesh is a bioresorbable coating, separating the mesh from underlying tissue and organ surfaces to minimize tissue attachment to the mesh. Shortly after placement, the biopolymer coating becomes a hydrated gel that is resorbed from the site in less than 30 days.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Bench testing and animal studies were performed on the Ventralight ST Mesh to support substantial equivalence. Bench testing on the proposed device included PGA pullout strength testing, burst strength testing, tear strength testing, suture retention strength testing, dry bond strength testing, and hydrogel disruption testing after laparoscopic deployment. Predicate device testing included seal strength testing, package qualification testing, and biocompatibility testing as there were no packaging or material changes to the device. A 4 week post-implantation study in a porcine model was completed on the predicate device and proposed device to evaluate tissue attachment, mesh contracture, tissue in-growth, and host inflammatory and fibrotic response for both devices. Results of testing demonstrate that the Ventralight ST Mesh design meets product specifications and intended uses.

result in a two-sided mesh with a PP surface and a PGA surface. The mesh is coated on the PGA surface with a bioresorbable, chemically modified sodium hyaluronate (HA), carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) based hydrogel. The fascial side of the mesh allows a prompt fibroblastic response through the interstices of the mesh, encouraging complete tissue ingrowth, similar to polypropylene mesh alone. The visceral side of the mesh is a bioresorbable coating, separating the mesh from underlying tissue and organ surfaces to minimize tissue attachment to the mesh. Shortly after placement, the biopolymer coating becomes a hydrated gel that is resorbed from the site in less than 30 days.
Indication for Use:
The Ventralight ST Mesh is indicated for use in the reconstruction of soft tissue deficiencies, such as the repair of hernias.
Comparison to Predicate Devices:
The Ventralight ST Mesh has the same intended use and fundamental scientific technology as the predicate device. All technological characteristics of the Ventralight ST Mesh are the same as the predicate device including packaging, biocompatibility, sterilization, and labeling. The technological characteristics include a co-knitted PGA and polypropylene mesh layer to allow for tissue in-growth and a bioresorbable coating to minimize tissue attachment. The only difference between the predicate device and the proposed device is that the proposed device, Ventralight ST Mesh, is a low profile version of the predicate device. Sepramesh IP Mesh. By creating a low profile version of Sepramesh IP Mesh. minimum trocar sizes can be utilized for deployment of the mesh in laparoscopic ventral hernia repairs. To create a low profile version of Sepramesh IP Mesh, two minor modifications were required. The first modification is that the polypropylene mesh layer is now constructed of a lighter weight polypropylene monofilament which is identical in the polypropylene material composition and knit pattern and differs in diameter only by .001 in. The second modification is in the PGA layer. Additional PGA was added to fill in the interlayer spaces on the top layer to pull & the co-knitted PP/PGA mesh tighter to the top layer PGA fibers and the bioresorbable

coating. The overall knitting process remains the same. Where minor technological differences exist between the proposed device and the predicate device, performance testing demonstrates that these differences do not adversely affect the safety and effectiveness of the proposed device.
Summary of Non-Clinical Testing:
Bench testing and animal studies were performed on the Ventralight ST Mesh to support substantial equivalence. Bench testing on the proposed device included PGA pullout strength testing, burst strength testing, tear strength testing, suture retention strength testing, dry bond strength testing, and hydrogel disruption testing after laparoscopic deployment. Predicate device testing included seal strength testing, package qualification testing, and biocompatibility testing as there were no packaging or material changes to the device. A 4 week post-implantation study in a porcine model was completed on the predicate device and proposed device to evaluate tissue attachment, mesh contracture, tissue in-growth, and host inflammatory and fibrotic response for both devices. Results of testing demonstrate that the Ventralight ST Mesh design meets product specifications and intended uses.
Statement of Equivalence:
The Ventralight ST Mesh has the same indications for use and technological characteristics as the predicate device. Based on this and the design and engineering data provided in the Premarket Notification, the proposed Ventralight ST Mesh has been shown to be substantially equivalent to the cleared Sepramesh IP Mesh.
