More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a collagen implant for dural repair and does not mention any AI or ML components, image processing, or data-driven performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML devices.

Yes
The device is intended for the repair or substitution of the patient's dura mater, which is a therapeutic purpose.

No

The device description clearly states "The DURAFORM Dural Graft Implant is intended for use in procedures where the repair or substitution of the patient's dura mater is needed." This indicates it's a therapeutic implant, not a diagnostic tool used for identifying conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "single use, sterile collagen implant manufactured from processed bovine tendons," indicating 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 "repair or substitution of the patient's dura mater," which is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a "single use, sterile collagen implant manufactured from processed bovine tendons." This describes a surgical implant, not a device used to examine specimens from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to test or analyze samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) from the human body to provide information about a physiological state, disease, or condition.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) as a surgical implant.

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

Device and packaging stability testing for device and packaging characteristics that may be affected by an extended shelf life was performed. All testing was performed on final sterile devices unless otherwise specified.

The following device stability testing was performed at time-zero and after 30 months of real-time aging:

  • Compressibility (Time-Zero and 30-Month)
    • Test Method Summary: Compressibility quantifies the ability of a device to be compressed. Compressibility is measured by comparing the compressed thickness to the original thickness of the device. The compressed thickness is measured with a thickness gage after compression at 120 seconds.
    • Results: Both time-zero and 30-month real-time tests passed the acceptance criterion. Therefore, the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and does not raise new issues in safety and effectiveness.
  • Resilience (Time-Zero and 30-Month)
    • Test Method Summary: Resilience quantifies the capability of a device returning back to its original state. Resilience is measured by comparing the recovered thickness after compression to the original thickness of the device. The recovered thickness is measured after the device has been compressed for 120 seconds and left to recover to its original state for 30 minutes.
    • Results: Both time-zero and 30-month real-time tests passed the acceptance criterion. Therefore, the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and does not raise new issues in safety and effectiveness.
  • Imbibition (Time-Zero and 30-Month)
    • Test Method Summary: The imbibition quotient measures how much fluid a material is able to absorb. In order to determine imbibition quotient, the dividend of the dry weight of a DURAFORM Dural Graft Implant sample is taken from wet weight of the sample after 10 seconds of irrigation, the procedure representing clinical use.
    • Results: Both time-zero and 30-month real-time tests passed the acceptance criterion. Therefore, the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and does not raise new issues in safety and effectiveness.
  • Apparent Density (Time-Zero and 30-Month)
    • Test Method Summary: Apparent density measures the density of a dural substitute material. Apparent density is measured using the dry weight of the device.
    • Results: Both time-zero and 30-month real time tests passed the acceptance criterion. Therefore, the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and does not raise new issues in safety and effectiveness.
  • Visual Inspection (Time-Zero and 30-Month)
    • Test Method Summary: A visual inspection is performed for the samples to be white in color with no stains visible.
    • Results: Both time-zero and 30-month real-time tests passed the acceptance criterion. Therefore, the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and does not raise new issues in safety and effectiveness.
  • Tensile Strength (Time-Zero and 30-Month)
    • Test Method Summary: Tensile strength testing is performed on the DURAFORM Dural Graft Implant per FDA's guidance on physical and mechanical properties testing for dura substitutes, as outlined in the Guidance Document for Dura Substitute Devices: Guidance for Industry. In order to test tensile strength, each sample is wetted with water, placed into an Instron instrument, and rewetted to ensure the sample has not dried out. Then, the instrument pulls the sample and captures the peak load when failure occurs.
    • Results: Time-zero testing passed the acceptance criteria; 30-month testing results were deemed acceptable. Therefore, the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and does not raise new issues in safety and effectiveness.

The following packaging stability testing, performed at 120 months and 132 months of real-time aging, was leveraged to support packaging integrity for the proposed shelf life at 30 months:

  • Visual Inspection (120-Month and 132-Month)
    • Test Method Summary: A visual inspection is performed for any damage to the packaging.
    • Results: Both 120-month and 132-month tests passed the acceptance criterion. Therefore, packaging integrity will be maintained for the duration of the proposed shelf life at 30 months.
  • Seal Integrity (Dye Penetration) (120-Month and 132-Month)
    • Test Method Summary: Seal integrity (dye penetration) testing was tested in accordance with ASTM F1929-12 Standard Test Method for Detecting Seal Leaks in Porous Medical Packaging by Dye Penetration.
    • Results: Both 120-month and 132-month tests passed the acceptance criterion. Therefore, packaging integrity will be maintained for the duration of the proposed shelf life at 30 months.
  • Seal Strength (120-Month and 132-Month)
    • Test Method Summary: Seal strength testing was tested in accordance with ASTM F88/F88M-09 Standard Test Method for Seal Strength of Flexible Barrier Materials.
    • Results: Both 120-month and 132-month tests passed the acceptance criterion. Therefore, packaging integrity will be maintained for the duration of the proposed shelf life at 30 months.

passed the acceptance
criterion. Therefore, the
proposed device is
substantially equivalent to
the predicate device and
does not raise new issues in
safety and effectiveness.
Resilience
(Time-Zero and
30-Month)Resilience quantifies the capability
of a device returning back to its
original state. Resilience is
measured by comparing the
recovered thickness after
compression to the original
thickness of the device. The
recovered thickness is measured
after the device has been
compressed for 120 seconds and left
to recover to its original state for
30 minutes.Both time-zero and
30-month real-time tests
passed the acceptance
criterion. Therefore, the
proposed device is
substantially equivalent to
the predicate device and
does not raise new issues in
safety and effectiveness.
TestTest Method SummaryResults
