Intended Use
Vitala® Porcine Derived Collagen Membrane is intended for use during the process of guided bone regeneration (GBR) and guided tissue regeneration (GTR) as a biodegradable barrier for: -Simultaneous use with implants; -Augmentation around implants placed in immediate extraction sockets; -Augmentation around implants placed in delayed extraction sockets; -Localized ridge augmentation for later implantation; -Alveolar ridge reconstruction for prosthetic treatment; -Alveolar ridge preservation consequent to tooth extraction; -Filling of bone defects after root resection, cystectomy, removal of retained teeth; -Over the window in lateral window sinus elevation procedures; -Furcation defects in multi-rooted teeth; -Treatment of recession defects, together with coronally positioned flap; -In implants with vertical bone loss due to infection, only with satisfactory debridement and implant surface disinfection; -Guided bone regeneration in dehiscence defects; and -Guided tissue regeneration in periodontal defects.
Device Description
Vitala® Porcine Derived Collagen Membrane is a natural collagen membrane for use in periodontal and/or dental surgical procedures. The membrane is manufactured using a standardized, controlled, multistage process. The pre-slaughter origin of all animals is the United States of America and the source collagen is extracted from veterinary-certified pigs sacrificed in a USDA-inspected facility. The membrane is terminally sterilized in double blister packs by electron beam irradiation. The contents of the unopened, undamaged inner package are sterile. Vitala® Porcine Derived Collagen Membrane functions as a barrier when applied between bone graft material and soft tissue. The membrane serves as a bioresorbable scaffold that is eventually remodeled and replaced by host tissue. Animal studies have shown that Vitala® Porcine Derived Collagen Membrane is substantially resorbed by 26 weeks.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and biological function of a collagen membrane, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes.
The device is intended for use in guided bone regeneration (GBR) and guided tissue regeneration (GTR) procedures, which are medical treatments aimed at promoting healing and regeneration of tissue.

No

Vitala® Porcine Derived Collagen Membrane is a barrier used in guided bone and tissue regeneration, providing a scaffold for tissue growth rather than diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "natural collagen membrane" and describes its manufacturing process, physical properties, and sterilization method, indicating it is a physical, hardware-based medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a device used during surgical procedures for guided bone and tissue regeneration within the body (intra-oral). This is a therapeutic and structural function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical membrane made from collagen, designed to act as a barrier and scaffold within the body. It doesn't mention any components or functions related to analyzing samples from the body to provide diagnostic information.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on material properties, biocompatibility, and tissue reaction in vivo (in living organisms), which are relevant for implanted devices, not IVDs.

IVD devices are designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. This device is used within the body to facilitate healing and regeneration.

VIII. CONCLUSION

Additional steps in the manufacturing process of Vitala® Porcine Derived Collagen Membrane were added to the predicate device, resulting in the subject device. Minor differences exist in thickness and tensile strength. Non-clinical performance data was compared against the reference device, Bio-Gide® Resorbable Bilayer Membrane, to substantiate thickness and tensile specifications for the subject device.

The results of in vitro device characterization tests show that the subject device, Vitala® Porcine Derived Collagen Membrane, is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. Tensile strength tests show that the subject device is at least as strong as the reference device. Biocompatibility testing demonstrated that the subject device is a non-irritant compared to the reference device. An animal study conducted in a canine mandibular molar furcation defect model characterized resorption.
