The summary describes a physical surgical suture device and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
No
The device is a tissue-closure device (suture) used for soft tissue approximation. It is not described as treating or preventing a disease or condition, which would make it a therapeutic device.
No
The device is described as a "tissue-closure device" used for "soft tissue approximation," which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly indicates it is a physical tissue-closure device made of a copolymer with barbs and attached to needles. There is no mention of software as a component or the primary function of the device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "soft tissue approximation where use of an absorbable suture is appropriate." This describes a surgical procedure performed directly on a patient's body.
- Device Description: The description details a physical device (suture with barbs and loops) used for closing tissue.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue samples) outside of the body to provide information about a patient's health status. IVDs are used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening based on analysis of these samples.
This device is a surgical tool used for wound closure, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Non-clinical laboratory performance testing was conducted to confirm that the Quill™ Monoderm™ Knotless Tissue-Closure device, Variable Loop Design, conforms to the USP monograph for absorbable sutures for tensile strength (as applicable) and needle attachment. This testing was performed in accordance with FDA's Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Surgical Sutures, Issued June 3, 2003.
Additional performance testing was conducted in order to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate devices including simulated use tensile testing in porcine tissue and in vitro post-hydrolysis tensile testing.
The results of this testing demonstrates that the QuillTM Monoderm™ Knotless Tissue-Closure device, Variable Loop Design, is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

§ 878.4493 Absorbable poly(glycolide/l-lactide) surgical suture.
(a)
Identification. An absorbable poly(glycolide/l-lactide) surgical suture (PGL suture) is an absorbable sterile, flexible strand as prepared and synthesized from homopolymers of glycolide and copolymers made from 90 percent glycolide and 10 percent l-lactide, and is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation. A PGL suture meets United States Pharmacopeia (U.S.P.) requirements as described in the U.S.P. “Monograph for Absorbable Surgical Sutures;” it may be monofilament or multifilament (braided) in form; it may be uncoated or coated; and it may be undyed or dyed with an FDA-approved color additive. Also, the suture may be provided with or without a standard needle attached.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is FDA's “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Surgical Sutures; Guidance for Industry and FDA.” See § 878.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.
