Intended Use
The proposed LITE Pelvic Floor Repair Kits are indicated for tissue reinforcement and stabilization of fascial structures of the pelvic floor for vaginal wall prolapse, where surgical treatment is intended, either as mechanical support or bridging material for the fascial defect.
Device Description
The proposed devices were submitted to introduce lightweight versions of previously cleared pelvic floor repair kits: Pinnacle Anterior/Apical, Pinnacle Posterior, Pinnacle Duet and Uphold Vaginal Support System. The proposed mesh configurations were designed for performing transvaginal vaginal wall repair to facilitate treatment of anterior, apical and posterior prolapse repairs. These devices are sterile, single use devices, consisting of one or two light-weight synthetic mesh assemblies and a needle holder. The mesh assemblies consist of a macroporous polypropylene knitted mesh body with integrated legs that are protected by disposable polymer sleeves. At the distal end of the disposable polymer sleeve is a lead with needle designed for use with the Capio The Open Access Suture Capturing Device. The disposable lead was designed to facilitate the passage of the proposed mesh through bodily tissues for placement.

No
The summary describes a physical medical device (mesh and needle holder) for surgical repair and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for "tissue reinforcement and stabilization of fascial structures of the pelvic floor for vaginal wall prolapse," which describes a therapeutic purpose.

No

The device is described as a surgical implant for tissue reinforcement and stabilization, not for diagnosing medical conditions. It performs a therapeutic function.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components such as mesh assemblies, needles, and sleeves, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "tissue reinforcement and stabilization of fascial structures of the pelvic floor for vaginal wall prolapse, where surgical treatment is intended." This describes a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body) to provide structural support.
  • Device Description: The device consists of "synthetic mesh assemblies and a needle holder." This is consistent with a surgical implant and delivery system.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any components or functions related to testing samples in vitro (outside the body), such as analyzing blood, urine, or tissue samples for diagnostic purposes.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device is a surgical implant used to repair anatomical structures.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Boston Scientific conducted mechanical performance and biocompatibility testing to demonstrate the equivalence of the LITE mesh to the predicate devices. The mesh mechanical performance testing included mesh thickness, pore size, density, tensile strength, stiffness, burst strength, suture pullout strength, and mesh flexibility. In addition, Boston Scientific evaluated the tensile strengths of the mesh assembly including the components of the leg assemblies (needle, lead, dilator, protective sleeve and leader loop). Boston Scientific also evaluated the force to remove the leg assemblies from the mesh.
Biocompatibility testing on the LITE kits' materials of construction included cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, acute systemic toxicity, sub acute toxicity, genotoxicity and implantation.
The results of the performance testing demonstrate equivalence of the LITE Pelvic Floor Repair kits to the predicate devices.

F. Intended Use

The proposed LITE mesh kits are intended for tissue reinforcement and stabilization of fascial structures of the pelvic floor for vaginal wall prolapse, where surgical treatment is intended, either as mechanical support or bridging material for the fascial defect.

G. Technological Characteristics

The proposed device has the same mesh fiber materials and fiber diameter as the predicates but is knit with a larger pore size to create a lighter, lower density mesh.

H. Substantial Equivalence/ Performance Testing (Bench)

Utilizing FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff "Format for Traditional and Abbreviated 510(k)s" and "Guidance for the Preparation of a Premarket Notification Application for a Surgical Mesh", a direct comparison of key characteristics demonstrates that the proposed mesh is substantially equivalent to the predicate mesh in terms of intended use, technological characteristics, and performance characteristics tested.

Boston Scientific conducted mechanical performance and biocompatibility testing to demonstrate the equivalence of the LITE mesh to the predicate devices. The mesh mechanical performance testing included mesh thickness, pore size, density, tensile strength, stiffness, burst strength, suture pullout strength, and mesh flexibility. In addition, Boston Scientific evaluated the tensile strengths of the mesh assembly including the components of the leg assemblies (needle, lead, dilator, protective sleeve and leader loop). Boston Scientific also evaluated the force to remove the leg assemblies from the mesh.

Biocompatibility testing on the LITE kits' materials of construction included cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, acute systemic toxicity, sub acute toxicity, genotoxicity and implantation.

The results of the performance testing demonstrate equivalence of the LITE Pelvic Floor Repair kits to the predicate devices.
