No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and material properties (self-inflating air seal, foam insert, polypropylene deflation shield) and clinical outcomes related to safety and continence restoration, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
Yes
The device is intended to prevent the release of stool from an end colostomy, allowing flatus to be deodorized and released, which is a therapeutic function for individuals with colostomies.
No
This device is a "Continence Control Device" intended to prevent the release of stool and allow flatus to be released and deodorized from an end colostomy. It is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical, single-use device with components like an "Air Seal," "foam insert," and "expandable container." The 510(k) notification concerns modifications to labeling and a material change to a physical component (deflation shield). There is no mention of software as a component or function of the device.
Based on the provided information, the VITALA™ Continence Control Device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to prevent the release of stool from an end colostomy and allow flatus to be released. This is a direct interaction with the body to manage a physiological function, not to diagnose a condition or analyze a sample in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: The description details a mechanical device that physically interacts with a stoma to control output. It does not involve the analysis of biological samples for diagnostic purposes.
- Clinical Studies: The clinical studies focus on the safety and effectiveness of the device in managing continence and its impact on the stoma and surrounding skin. They do not involve diagnostic testing or analysis of biological markers.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological sample. The device's function is entirely external and mechanical in nature.
Therefore, the VITALA™ Continence Control Device falls under the category of a medical device used for managing a physical condition, not for in vitro diagnosis.

Device Description
The Vitala™ Continence Control Device is a pouchless ostomy device consisting of a self-inflating Air Seal which contacts a stoma and is held against the stoma with a low pressure, allowing flatus to be deodorized and vented while retaining stool. The Air Seal contains a soft foam insert that expands to fill the Air Seal, causing the Air Seal to expand with it. As it expands, the Air Seal gently contacts the stoma and conforms to the shape of the stoma, and is held against the stoma with a low pressure. The Air Seal will re-inflate to remain in contact with the stoma if the stoma retracts or moves away from the Air Seal.
The Vitala™ Continence Control Device also includes an expandable container to collect stool during removal of the device. This single use device is designed to be used only with a 1 ½" (45mm) or 2 ¼" (57mm) ConvaTec Natura® skin barrier, and will accommodate a range of stoma diameters.
The Vitala™ Continence Control Device is indicated for individuals with end colostomies. The device is not intended for use until the abdomen and peristomal area have fully healed from bowel surgery (typically 6-12 weeks post surgery), or for use with a stoma protrusion greater than 2 cm (when lying down). The device should also not be used in individuals with end colostomies with a history of chronic liquid stool. ConvaTec Moldable Technology™ skin barriers should not be used with the Vitala™ device.
This 510(k) notification concerns modification of the labeling for the Vitala™ Continence Control Device to allow an expanded wear time of up to 12 hours per day for the device as well as expanded compatibility with ConvaTec Natura® convex products. Otherwise, the design, materials, and manufacture of the device remain unchanged from its description in 510(k) Premarket Notification K083785, except that its deflation shield is now made from polypropylene.

INDICATIONS FOR USE
The VITALA™ Continence Control Device is a single-use device intended to prevent the release of stool from an end colostomy while allowing any flatus from the stoma to be deodorized and released.
To be used only with a 1 ¾ in. (45 mm) or 2 ¼ in. (57 mm) ConvaTec NATURA® skin barrier. Not intended for use with ConvaTec Moldable Technology™ skin barriers.
CLINICAL SUMMARY .
ConvaTec has performed two clinical studies to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Vitala™ Continence Control Device with an extended wear time of up to 12 hours per day as well as its compatibility with ConvaTec Natura® convex products.
Clinical Study #1
A non-randomized, open-label, multi-center, multi-national (conducted in the USA and Europe) clinical study was initiated on April 17, 2009 and completed on January 16, 2010.
The planned methodology was to enroll 75 subjects with an end colostomy of at least 12 weeks duration with formed or semi-formed effluent, who had the ability to wear a size 45mm or 57mm ConvaTec Natura® skin barrier flange, and a
2
K102536
pg 3 of 5
stoma that protruded no more than 2cm at rest (supine/on the back), as well as the ability to do complete self-care.
The primary objective of this clinical study was to assess safety during 12 hours of Vitala™ device wear by measuring the frequency of adverse events (AEs) related to stoma (including gastro-intestinal (GI), stomal and surrounding skin events), microbiology profile and stomal vascularity.
Seventy-eight subjects were enrolled in this study across study centers in the USA and Europe. Thirty-three subjects (42.3%) either withdrew or were discontinued from the study while 45 subjects (57.7%) completed the study per protocol. A total of 66 subjects wore the Vitala™ device.
Subjects in general rated the Vitala™ device as good or very good in its ability to restore continence (86.9%).
Overall, the rate of AEs during the Usual Stage (where subjects used their usual pouch system) and the Vitala™ Stage was identified at 0.01 per patient per day. Nausea/vomiting/diarrhea were the most commonly reported AEs (16 subjects) followed by abdominal pain (7 subjects) and constipation (5 subjects). Most AEs were mild or moderate in nature; however, there were 27 severe or very severe AEs. of which two were possibly related to the Vitala™ device.
Microbiology results showed that baseline evaluations established the presence of normal microflora and common microbial intestinal toxins. No obvious or harmful changes to the normal flora were noted when samples obtained during the Vitala™ Stage were compared to baseline samples. No aberrant flora were noted in the samples collected for GI events.
Stoma vascularity results showed that there was no significant difference in mean oxygen saturation (SO2) values. There was also no evidence of the systematic development of hypoxic regions in subjects who completed the study.
Overall, results from this study indicate that the Vitala™ device is safe and effective at restoring continence when worn up to 12 hours daily.
Clinical Study #2
A non-randomized, open-label, multi-center clinical study was conducted in the USA. The study was initiated on February 3, 2010 and completed on April 6, 2010, with primary objective to assess the safety of the Vitala™ Continence Control Device with 45mm and 57mm sizes of ConvaTec Natura® convex products during 12 hours of daily wear. Approximately 15 subjects who had been using some form of convex products and 10 subjects who did not normally use convexity were to be enrolled in this study.

K102536
pg. 4 of 5
The planned methodology was to enroll subjects with an end colostomy of at least 12 weeks duration with formed or semi-formed effluent, current users of convex skin barriers or convex inserts (enrollment targeted 15 convex users and 10 nonconvex users), willingness to wear a ConvaTec Natura® convex product in 45mm or 57mm size with a stoma opening size from 13mm up to 50mm, a stoma that protruded no more than 2cm at rest (supine / lying down on the back) and an ability to do complete self-care.
Twenty-seven subjects were enrolled in this study in the USA. Fifteen subjects who were convex users at baseline and 12 subjects who were non-convex users at baseline were enrolled into the study. Twenty-three subjects (85.2%) completed the study while four subjects (14.8%) discontinued from the study.
Subjects in general rated the VitalaTM device as "good" or "very good" in its ability to restore continence (64%).
Overall, the rate of adverse events (AEs) during the Convex Stage (where subjects used ConvaTec Natura® convex products prior to use of the Vitala™ device) was 0.03 and during the Vitala™ Stage it was identified at 0.02 per patient per day. Nausea/vomiting/diarrhea were the most commonly reported AEs (4 subjects) followed by bleed/bruise (trauma) to stoma wound, constipation and loose stool (3 subjects each). Most AEs were mild or moderate in nature and there was only one very severe AE, which was not considered to be related to the study treatment.
Stoma vascularity results provided no evidence of any changes in stoma and peristomal skin oxygen saturation (SO2) or the development of hypoxic regions in the stoma and hyperoxic regions in peristomal skin as a result of wearing the Vitala™ device with convex products.
Safety results showed no Vitala™ device related serious adverse events (SAEs) and no abnormal findings during the VitalaTM Stage. Stoma vascularity results provided no evidence of any changes in stoma and peristomal skin SO2 or the development of hypoxic regions in the stoma and hyperoxic regions in peristomal skin as a result of wearing the Vitala™ device with convex products.
Overall, results from this study indicate that the Vitala™ device is safe and effective at restoring continence when worn up to 12 hours with convex products.
OVERALL CONCLUSION
There are no significant differences in the intended use between the subject and predicate Vitala™ Continence Control Devices. The Vitala™ device is non-invasive to the stoma, and has demonstrated substantial equivalence as well as safety and effectiveness through use in clinical studies, microbiology studies, and vascularity testing of the stoma. The design, materials, and manufacture of the device remain unchanged from how it was
4
K102536
pg 5 of 5
described in 510(k) Premarket Notification K083785, except that its Deflation Shield is now made from polypropylene.
Based on the evidence provided, we propose that Vitala™ Continence Control Device can be used safely and effectively for individuals with end colostomies to prevent the release of stool from an end colostomy, for a wear time of up to twelve hours per day as well as with ConvaTec Natura® convex products.
