Device Description
The subject device is an acellular resorbable fish dermal matrix, intended for use in periodontal surgical procedures to aid in soft tissue and bone regeneration. It is obtained from cod fish skin by a standardized controlled manufacturing process, and supplied in terminally sterile peel-pouch packaging in the following solid sizes: - 15mm x 20mm - 20mm x 30mm - . 30mm x 40mm It is biocompatible, non-cross linked, and therefore resorbable, strong, flexible, and supports fixation by sutures and pins.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and biological performance of a fish dermal matrix, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes

The device is an implantable material used to aid in soft tissue and bone regeneration for various periodontal procedures, addressing medical conditions such as gingival defects, bone defects, and supporting Guided Tissue Regeneration.

No

Explanation: The device is an acellular resorbable fish dermal matrix intended for use in periodontal surgical procedures for soft tissue and bone regeneration. Its purpose is therapeutic and restorative, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "acellular resorbable fish dermal matrix," which is a physical material, not software. The performance studies also focus on physical properties and biological interactions, not software performance.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended uses listed are all related to surgical procedures for soft tissue and bone regeneration in the oral cavity. These are therapeutic and reconstructive applications, not diagnostic tests performed in vitro (outside the body) on biological samples.
  • Device Description: The device is a physical matrix intended to be implanted in the body. IVDs are typically reagents, instruments, or systems used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information.

The device is clearly intended for surgical implantation and tissue regeneration, which falls under the category of a medical device, but not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

Bench testing was performed following FDA guidance, "Preparation of a Premarket Notification Application for a Surgical Mesh" (1999).
Performance studies conducted to verify material properties and support substantial equivalence:

  • Morphology Observation: H&E staining and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) showed both subject and predicate devices are collagen-rich and porous, favoring cellular infiltration.
  • Cellular ingrowth comparison: Both materials showed favorable cellular infiltration of fibroblasts after 14 days in in vitro cellular modes.
  • Tensile Strength: Subject device's tensile strength was comparable to the predicate device.
  • Heavy Metal Analysis: Limits of cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), arsenic (As), and mercury (Hg) were acceptable under ICH guidelines: Q3D Elemental Impurities-Guidance for Industry.
  • Dimensional Validation: Manufacturing dimensional validation on three lots showed dimensions and thickness met or exceeded quality limits (> 1.33).
  • Stability in a simulated physiological environment: Subject device dissolved slower than the predicate device at neutral pH 7 in artificial saliva buffer.
  • Suture Pull-Out Strength: Subject device meets or exceeds predicate with >95% confidence, per ANSI/AAMI/ISO 7198.
  • Pin Pull-Out Strength: Subject device exceeds predicate with >95% confidence, per ASTM F-1839-08.
  • Compression: Compressive Peak-Load, Load-at-Break, Probe Penetration-at-Break, and Energy-to-Break of subject device meet or exceed predicate with >95% confidence, per ASTM-F-1306.
  • User Evaluation of Device for Cutting and Shaping: Favorable usability, substantially equivalent to predicate for cutting and shaping as a dental barrier membrane.
  • Biocompatibility, Sterilization, Shelf-life and Animal origin:
    • Biocompatibility per ISO 10993 series (Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Irritation or Intracutaneous reactivity, Acute systemic toxicity, Subacute/sub-chronic toxicity, Genotoxicity, Implantation, Materials-Mediated Pyrogenicity, Chronic Toxicity, Carcinogenicity). Testing from K190528 and K153364 used to support.

Performance Testing - BenchBench testing was performed following FDA guidance,

"Preparation of a Premarket Notification Application for a Surgical Mesh" (1999). The following performance studies were conducted on representative product samples to verify that material properties remain unchanged and support substantial equivalence:

7.1 Morphology Observation

The subject device and the predicate device are based on the collagen rich animal tissue, piscine and porcine, respectively. Based on H&E staining, both materials are rich in collagen and porous, therefore favoring cellular infiltration. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) shows equivalent preserved collagen structure of the animal origin tissues used for both devices. Cross section of both devices showed that the porous surfaces in the skin derived collagen structure of both materials allows tissue adherence and promotes tissue regeneration by favoring cellular ingrowth when applied to soft tissue defect areas.

7.2. Cellular ingrowth comparison

Both materials were tested for cellular ingrowth capability by fibroblast seeding onto the materials in vitro cellular modes. Both materials showed favorable cellular infiltration of fibroblasts after 14 days

which is a key component for tissue augmentation and re-epithelization of defected keratin tissue in the oral cavity.

7.3. Tensile Strength

The tensile strength of the subject device was determined to be comparable to the predicate device measured by ultimate tensile strength.

7.4. Heavy Metal Analysis

A heavy metal analysis was evaluated to show that the limits of cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), arsenic (As) and mercury (Hg) contained within the subject device were acceptable under the ICH guidelines: Q3D Elemental Impurities-Guidance for Industry.

7.5. Dimensional Validation

Manufacturing dimensional validation was performed on three lots of the subject device where its dimension and thickness were tested. Kerecis has set the quality limits for a capability index to be > 1.33. All tested parameters met or exceeded the set goal.

7.6. Stability in a simulated physiological environment

A stability test was done in a simulated physiological oral environment (artificial saliva buffer) to investigate the dissolution of both material over time and to compare the effects that the products have on the pH levels and conductivity of the buffer over 24 hours. The subject device is structurally more stable than the predicate device since it dissolved slower than the predicate device at neutral pH 7.

7.7. Suture Pull-Out Strength

Consistent with recognized standard ANSI/AAMI/ISO 7198, The suture pull-out strength of the subject device meets or exceeds that of the predicate with a confidence of greater than 95%. The products are equivalent.

7.8. Pin Pull-Out Strength

Consistent with recognized standard ASTM F-1839-08, The pin pull-out strength of the subject device exceeds that of the predicate at a confidence level of greater than 95%. The products are equivalent.

7.9. Compression

In accordance with ASTM-F-1306, "Standard Test Method for Slow Rate Penetration Resistance of Flexible Barrier Films and Laminates", the mechanical test for compressive strength was measured for the subject and predicate device. The compressive Peak-Load, Load-at-Break, Probe Penetrationat-Break, and Energy-to-Break of the subject device meet or exceed those of the predicate device, with a confidence of greater than 95%. The products are equivalent.

7.10. User Evaluation of Device for Cutting and Shaping

The subject device was evaluated in comparison to the predicate for use in the oral environment using a questionnaire. The results showed favorable usability that was substantially equivalent to the predicate for cutting and shaping the device for use as a dental barrier membrane.

7.11.Biocompatibility, Sterilization, Shelf-life and Animal origin.

Testing from the applicant's own predicate device (K190528 and K153364) was used to s substantial equivalence.
