Intended Use
The AccuMesh Positioning System is intended to be used to facilitate the delivery of soft tissue prosthetics during the laparoscopic repair of soft tissue defects (e.g. hernia repair).
Device Description
The AccuMesh laparoscopic surgical instrument intended to facilitate hernia mesh delivery and placement in laparoscopic ventral hernia repair. It is comprised of two main sections: operation handle and deployment section which are connected via a tube. Included in the packaging configuration is a furling sleeve intended to assist the surgeons to furl the mesh tightly and rapidly over the AccuMesh positioning system.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical surgical instrument for mesh delivery and placement, with no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data-driven performance metrics.

No
The device is described as a surgical instrument intended to facilitate the delivery and placement of hernia mesh, not to treat a condition itself. Its function is to assist in a surgical procedure, not to provide therapy.

No
The device is described as a surgical instrument intended to facilitate the delivery and placement of hernia mesh, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "laparoscopic surgical instrument" comprised of physical components like an "operation handle," "deployment section," and a "furling sleeve." This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • AccuMesh Function: The AccuMesh Positioning System is a surgical instrument used during a laparoscopic procedure to physically deliver and position a soft tissue prosthetic (mesh) within the body. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "facilitat[ing] the delivery of soft tissue prosthetics during the laparoscopic repair of soft tissue defects." This is a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test.

Therefore, the AccuMesh Positioning System is a surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

AccuMesh Positioning System

Reason for 510(k) submission:

To obtain market clearance on the Accumesh Positioning System with a component color addition of an orange ink.

Device description:

Positioning System is a manual The AccuMesh laparoscopic surgical instrument intended to facilitate hernia mesh delivery and placement in laparoscopic ventral hernia repair. It is comprised of two main sections: operation handle and deployment section which are Included in the packaging connected via a tube. configuration is a furling sleeve intended to assist the surgeons to furl the mesh tightly and rapidly over the AccuMesh positioning system.

Intended use of the device:

Intended to facilitate the delivery of soft tissue prosthetics during laparoscopic repair of soft tissue defects (e.g. hernia repair).

Indications for use:

Indicated to facilitate the delivery of soft tissue prosthetics during laparoscopic repair of soft tissue defects (e.g. hernia repair).

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

The proposed colorant addition is on the central distal shaft found on the deployment frame. The central distal shaft on the deployment frame or the frame, itself, has not changed and is previously cleared in the AccuMesh (PatchAssist) device (K101218, K103269, and K123066) 510(k)s. Accumesh is intended to be used to facilitate the delivery of soft tissue prosthetics during laparoscopic repair of soft tissue defects (e.g. hernia repair). There are no changes to the technological characteristics as a result of the proposed colorant addition.
