Intended Use
The PARIETEX™ Optimized Composite Mesh (PCO) is used for the reinforcement of tissues during surgical repair. It is indicated for the treatment of incisional hernias, abdominal wall repair and parietal (i.e. pertaining to the walls) reinforcement of tissues. The non-absorbable three-dimensional polyester mesh provides long term reinforcement of soft tissues. On the opposite side, the absorbable hydrophilic film minimizes tissue attachment to the mesh in case of direct contact with the viscera.
Device Description
The PARIETEX™ Optimized Composite Mesh (PCO) is available in rectangular and round shape. This device is made out of a three-dimensional multifilament polyester knit for wall reinforcement, covered with an absorbable, continuous and hydrophilic film on one of its sides. This film is made up of collagen from porcine origin and glycerol, and juts out 5 mm over the edge of the reinforcement.
More Information

No
The description focuses on the material composition and physical properties of a surgical mesh, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

Yes
The device is used for the "treatment of incisional hernias, abdominal wall repair and parietal (i.e. pertaining to the walls) reinforcement of tissues," which are therapeutic applications.

No
Explanation: The device is a surgical mesh used for tissue reinforcement during surgical repair, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device is a physical mesh implant made of polyester and collagen, clearly described as a hardware component for surgical repair.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the "reinforcement of tissues during surgical repair" and "treatment of incisional hernias, abdominal wall repair and parietal reinforcement of tissues." This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) during a surgical procedure.
  • Device Description: The description details a surgical mesh made of polyester and collagen, designed to be implanted in the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD is a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not interact with or analyze such specimens.

The information provided clearly indicates this is a surgical implant, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

which equivalence is claimed:PARIETEX™ Composite Mesh (K002699 and K040998)
Reason for 510(k) submission:The proposed PARIETEX™ Optimized Composite Mesh has
been modified compared to the predicate devices as the knitting
textile has been modified to obtain a higher mechanical
resistance of the mesh and the collagen film formulation has
been changed to get a film more resistant to handling.
Device description:The PARIETEX™ Optimized Composite Mesh (PCO) is
available in rectangular and round shape. This device is made
out of a three-dimensional multifilament polyester knit for wall
reinforcement, covered with an absorbable, continuous and
hydrophilic film on one of its sides. This film is made up of
collagen from porcine origin and glycerol, and juts out 5 mm
over the edge of the reinforcement.
Intended use of the device:The PARIETEX™ Optimized Composite Mesh (PCO) is used
for the reinforcement of tissues during surgical repair.
Indications for use:It is indicated for the treatment of incisional hernias, abdominal
wall repair and parietal (i.e. pertaining to the walls)

reinforcement of tissues. The non-absorbable threedimensional polyester mesh provides long term reinforcement of soft tissues. On the opposite side, the absorbable hydrophilic film minimizes tissue attachment to the mesh in case of direct contact with the viscera.

Summary comparing the technological characteristics of the subject and predicate devices:

The subject PARIETEX™ Optimized Composite Mesh (PCO) is equivalent to the predicate devices PARIETEX™ Composite Mesh (K002699 and K040998) in terms of its technological characteristics. No major technological changes are proposed to the predicate devices in this submission. Design modifications included a new collagen film formulation and changes to the knitting. Performance testing was performed on both predicate and proposed mesh. The results of a pre-clinical study and bench testing, performed in accordance with FDA's Guidance for the Preparation of a Premarket Notification Application for Surgical Mesh, demonstrate improved mechanical properties, and equivalent in-vivo minimizing tissue attachment property.

Performance data: Bench testing and pre-clinical testing has been conducted to evaluate the performance characteristics. Testing has shown that the PARIETEX™ Optimized Composite Mesh is equivalent in performance characteristics to the predicates PARIETEX™ Composite Mesh.
