More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and mechanical performance of a bovine pericardial tissue patch, with no mention of AI or ML.

No

The device is a surgical patch used for repair and reinforcement, which are structural functions, not therapeutic in the sense of treating a disease or disorder directly through physiological action or energy delivery.

No
The device is a surgical patch used for reconstruction, repair, and reinforcement of tissue, not for identifying or assessing a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a bovine pericardial tissue patch, which is a physical, biological material, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for surgical repair and reconstruction of tissues (cardiac, vascular, soft tissue). This is a therapeutic/surgical application, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details a tissue patch used for physical repair, not for analyzing biological samples to diagnose a condition.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing blood, urine, tissue samples, or any other biological material to provide diagnostic information.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the physical properties and biocompatibility of the patch, which are relevant to its surgical function, not its diagnostic accuracy.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device does not fit that description.

Summary of Performance Studies

The biocompatibility evaluation for the Bovine Pericardial Tissue Patch device was conducted in accordance with the FDA Guidance for the Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, "Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process", June 16, 2016. Biocompatibility evaluation as required for Implant Devices, Circulating Blood Contact, Permanent Duration (>30 days) was considered in accordance with the cited guidance documents and standards.

The following bench testing was conducted to demonstrate the substantial equivalence of the Bovine Pericardial Tissue Patch to the predicate device.

  • Ultimate Tensile Strength, % Elongation
  • Suture Retention Strength
  • Crosslinking Validation
    • Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)
    • Histology
  • Glutaraldehyde Residuals
  • Packaging Validation
    • Leak Test
    • Sterility Test

The testing conducted supports the Bovine Pericardial Tissue Patch being as safe and effective as the predicate and demonstrates that the device performs as intended. The performance testing conducted demonstrates that the Bovine Pericardial Tissue Patch performs substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

Dear Mr. Kupumbati:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part

1

801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
