The device is intended for use as a soft tissue patch to reinforce soft tissue where weakness exists and for the surgical repair of damaged or ruptured soft tissue membranes. Indications for use include the repair of hernias and /or body wall defects which require the use of reinforcing or bridging material to obtain the desired surgical outcome. The device is intended for reinforcement of soft tissues in plastic and reconstructive surgery.
The device is intended for single patient use only.
The proposed device is an implantable surgical mesh comprised of non-crosslinked porcine dermis that has been processed, terminally sterilized and is stored hydrated and ready to use. The proposed device is designed to perform as a scaffold that allows for neovascularization and permits replacement of the device with host tissue. The device in its unopened, undamaged package is sterile.
This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for the Fortiva™ porcine dermis and Tutoplast® porcine dermis surgical meshes. The purpose of this submission is to demonstrate that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device (K123356). The document describes the device's indications for use, technological characteristics, and performance data supporting its substantial equivalence.
Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study information provided:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not explicitly state "acceptance criteria" in a numerical or target-based format. Instead, it demonstrates equivalence to a predicate device through various tests. Equivalence is the de-facto acceptance criteria in this context for a 510(k) submission.
| Characteristic / Test | Acceptance Criteria (Implied: Equivalence to Predicate K123356) | Reported Device Performance (Fortiva™ porcine dermis, Tutoplast® porcine dermis) |
|---|---|---|
| Intended Use | Equivalent to predicate (Surgical mesh scaffold to reinforce soft tissue where weakness exists and for the surgical repair of damaged or ruptured soft tissue membranes) | Proposed device is equivalent to predicate in intended use. |
| Material | Equivalent to predicate (Porcine Dermis) | Proposed device is equivalent to predicate in material. |
| Design | Equivalent to predicate (Terminally sterilized sheets in various sizes) | Proposed device is equivalent to predicate in design. |
| Function | Equivalent to predicate (Scaffold for soft tissue repair) | Proposed device is equivalent to predicate in function. |
| Processing | Equivalent to predicate (Proprietary tissue sterilization process) | Proposed device is equivalent to predicate in processing. |
| Chemical composition | Equivalent to predicate (Not applicable to these devices) | Proposed device is equivalent to predicate in chemical composition. |
| Energy Source | Equivalent to predicate (Not applicable to these devices) | Proposed device is equivalent to predicate in energy source. |
| In vitro Biomechanical Properties | Equivalent to predicate for: |
- Tensile maximum load
- Burst strength
- Suture pullout strength | Unimplanted tensile maximum load, burst strength and suture pullout strength were equivalent for the proposed and predicate devices. |
| Viral Inactivation | Demonstrated ability of process to inactivate model viruses with a wide range of characteristics. | Results demonstrate the ability of the process to inactivate viruses with a wide range of characteristics (enveloped and non-enveloped, RNA and DNA, low resistance and high resistance). |
| Pyrogenicity | Device did not elicit a pyrogen response in rabbit test; Endotoxin level

(a)
Identification. Surgical mesh is a metallic or polymeric screen intended to be implanted to reinforce soft tissue or bone where weakness exists. Examples of surgical mesh are metallic and polymeric mesh for hernia repair, and acetabular and cement restrictor mesh used during orthopedic surgery.(b)
