Intended Use
The Parietene™M Macroporous Mesh is intended for the repair of hemias or other fascial deficiencies that require the addition of a reinforcing material.
Device Description
The Parietene™ Macroporous Mesh is a non-absorbable synthetic surgical mesh made out of bi-dimensional monofilament polypropylene textile. The Parietene™ Macroporous mesh is offered in a flat sheet and pre-cut mesh. The pre-cut mesh facilitates the repair of inguinal hernias via the anterior approach using a tension free technique.
More Information

No
The summary describes a physical surgical mesh and its material properties and performance through bench testing. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any computational processing that would suggest the use of AI/ML.

Yes.
The device is intended for the "repair of hernias or other fascial deficiencies," which describes a therapeutic purpose.

No

The device is a surgical mesh intended for the repair of hernias or fascial deficiencies, which is a therapeutic purpose, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "non-absorbable synthetic surgical mesh made out of bi-dimensional monofilament polypropylene textile," indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the "repair of hernias or other fascial deficiencies that require the addition of a reinforcing material." This describes a surgical implant used directly in the body during a procedure.
  • Device Description: The description details a "non-absorbable synthetic surgical mesh" made of polypropylene. This is a physical material implanted into a patient.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.

This device is clearly a surgical implant, not a device used for testing samples outside the body.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Bench testing has been conducted in accordance with FDA's Guidance for the Preparation of a Premarket Notification Application for Surgical Mesh issued March 2, 1999 to evaluate the performance characteristics of the subject Parietene™ Macroporous Mesh. The following mesh characteristics were assessed: mesh thickness, pore size, surface density, bursting strength, bursting distension, breaking strength, elongation at break, tear strength, suture strength. The bench results demonstrate that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate PROLENE™ Soft (polypropylene) Mesh (K001122). Parietene™ Macroporous Mesh is made out of material that has been evaluated for biocompatibility in accordance with ISO 10993-1 for a permanent implant, a recognized standard by FDA (#2-179). Parietene™ Macroporous Mesh shelf-life has been demonstrated by the stability results of the material and the ability of packaging to maintain product sterility per sealing. In conclusion, all testing demonstrates that the subject Parietene™ Macroporous Mesh is substantially equivalent to the predicate Prolene™ Soft Mesh.

Dear Ms. Brennan:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug. and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you; however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
