No
The description focuses on the material composition, physical properties, and surgical application of a mesh device. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.
Yes
The device is intended for the treatment of incisional hernias, abdominal wall repair, and parietal reinforcement of tissues, which are all therapeutic interventions aimed at correcting a medical condition.
No
The device description indicates COVAMESH™ is a surgical mesh used for reinforcing tissues during surgical repair, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a surgical mesh made from physical materials (polyester and collagen film) and is used in surgical procedures. It is a physical implant, not software.
Based on the provided information, 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," specifically for hernias and abdominal wall repair. This is a surgical implant used directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The description details a surgical mesh made of polyester and collagen, designed for implantation during open or laparoscopic procedures. It describes its physical properties and how it's used in surgery.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment. IVDs are typically used in a laboratory setting or at the point of care to analyze biological samples.
The device described is a surgical implant, which falls under a different regulatory category than In Vitro Diagnostics.

Device Description
COVAMESH™ is a surgical mesh used during open procedures (laparotomy) or during laparoscopic procedures. COVAMESHIM is made from polyethylene terephtalate (polyester) and a cross-linked resorbable collagen film of porcine origin. The hydrophilic collagen film physically separates the coated side of the mesh from adjacent tissue, viscera, and organs. A marking with a non-resorbable ink is at the centre of the mesh to help positioning the device. The surgical mesh is obtained by standardized, controlled manufacturing processes. COVAMESHI™ is further sterilized in double-blisters by gamma-imadiation.
COVAMESH™ is designed to be non inflammatory and biocompatible to allow reinforcement of soft tissues. When wetted, the surgical mesh is rollable to be easily introduced in a trocar. COVAMESH™ is suturable in place. It is provided in round sheets of 12 cm diameter and 16cm diameter and in rectangular sheets of 15x10 cm, 20x15 cm, 25x20 cm, 30x20 cm, 36x30 cm.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Bench testing: evaluated thickness, pore size, density, tensile strength, suture pullout strength and tear resistance. Results showed that COVAMESH™ has similar performance characteristics as previously cleared surgical mesh.
Animal Data: In vivo performances testing on two representative animal models were conducted in comparison with the predicate PARIETEX® COMPOSITE Mesh (K040998). The results demonstrate that COVAMESH™ elicits a similar tissue response and has similar tissue integration as compared to the PARIETEX® COMPOSITE Mesh predicate device.

The logo features the company name "biom'up" in a bold, sans-serif font, with the "up" portion slightly elevated. Above the name is a graphic of several horizontal lines that curve upwards, resembling a wave or airflow. Below the name, in smaller letters, is the text "ADVANCED BIOMATERIALS".
Intended Use
COVAMESH™ is intended 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-resorbable three dimensional polyester mesh provides long-term reinforcement of soft tissues.
Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence
The intended use, product design, physical structure and target population of COVAMESH™ is substantially equivalent to the FDA cleared and legally marketed predicate device PARIETEX® COMPOSITE Mesh (K040998). COVAMESH™ is constructed of a three-dimensional polyester mesh, knitted into a structure similar to PARIETEX® COMPOSITE Mesh (K040998). The collagen component is derived from a porcine source already cleared by FDA for predicate Cova™ORTHO-NERVE (K103081). In addition, COVAMESH™ and predicate devices are available in various sizes and shapes to accommodate different surgical procedures and/or surgeon's choice. Similarities are presented in the following Table.
Any differences in technological characteristics between the COVAMESH™ and the predicate devices do not raise any new issues of safety or efficacy. The performance and safety of the material used was evaluated. The collective results have demonstrated that the COVAMESH™ is substantially equivalent to the respective predicate devices with regard to safety and efficacy.

Summary of Effectiveness Data
Bench testing
Bench testing was conducted in accordance with FDA guidance - Preparation of a Premarket Notification Application Surgical Mesh to evaluate the performance characteristics of COVAMESH™. The thickness, pore size, density, tensile strength, suture pullout strength and tear resistance were all evaluated. The test results showed that COVAMESH™ has similar performance characteristics as previously cleared surgical mesh. Any differences in technological characteristics between the COVAMESH™ and the predicate devices do not raise any new issues of safety or efficacy.
Animal Data
In vivo performances testing on two representative animal models were conducted in comparison with the predicate PARIETEX® COMPOSITE Mesh (K040998). The results demonstrate that COVAMESH™ elicits a similar tissue response and has similar tissue integration as compared to the PARIETEX® COMPOSITE Mesh predicate device.
Conclusion
COVAMESH™ is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices: PARIETEX® COMPOSITE Mesh (K040998) and Cova™ ORTHO-NERVE (K103081).
