Intended Use
The ArcSP Suprapubic Sling System is indicated to be placed mid-urethra for the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI) resulting from urethral hypermobility and/or intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD).
Device Description
The ArcSP Suprapubic Sling System consists of the following: - 1 ArcSP Sling with bio-resorbable Suture with plastic sheath - 2 ArcSP Handle and Needle Delivery Assemblies. The Handle and Needle delivery assembly is a sterile, single-use system, consisting of a two curved, stainless-steel Needles with attached Handles. The conical tip of each delivery Needle is designed to allow for passage through tissue. The Needles are a tool and together with the Sling Connectors and Sheaths, facilitate placement of the Sling and are not implanted. The ArcSP Sling assembly is identical to the predicate. ArcTV Sling assembly and includes one knitted polypropylene mesh with an integrated bioresorbable Suture, two removable plastic insertion Sheaths, and two Sling Connectors. The Suture is an integral feature of the Mesh. The integrated Suture helps to minimize deformation of the mesh during sling insertion and placement and allows for adjustment of the Sling after removal of the Sheaths. The two plastic Sheaths cover and facilitate placement of the Sling. The Mesh and the bioresorbable Suture are permanently implanted.
More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a surgical implant and delivery system with no mention of software, data processing, or any technology that would typically incorporate AI/ML. The performance studies focus on physical and functional characteristics of the device.

Yes
The device is a sling system indicated for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence, which is a medical condition. It is permanently implanted to achieve its therapeutic effect.

No

The device is a surgical sling system designed for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence by physically supporting the urethra, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly details physical components like a sling, needles, handles, and sheaths, which are hardware.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to treat female stress urinary incontinence by surgically implanting a sling. This is a therapeutic procedure performed on a patient's body, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device consists of a sling, needles, and handles used for surgical implantation. These are surgical tools and implants, not reagents, instruments, or software used to analyze biological samples.
  • No mention of in vitro testing: The description focuses on the surgical placement of the device and its physical and functional properties. There is no mention of analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological sample outside of the body.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The ArcSP Suprapubic Sling System does not fit this description.

Dear Denise Lenz:

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.

This 510(k) is a Special 510(k) and is submitted to obtain marketing clearance for the ArcSP Suprapubic Sling System, a modification to the delivery device for the predicate ArcTV

4

Transyaginal Sling. The implantable portion of the device is identical to the predicate (ArcTV), with the delivery tool being the only difference from the predicate. ArcTV.

7.6 PREDICATE DEVICE

The predicate is ArcTV Transvaginal Sling System (K183134).

DEVICE DESCRIPTION 7.7

The ArcSP Suprapubic Sling System consists of the following:

  • 1 ArcSP Sling with bio-resorbable Suture with plastic sheath ●
  • 2 ArcSP Handle and Needle Delivery Assemblies .

The Handle and Needle delivery assembly is a sterile, single-use system, consisting of a two curved, stainless-steel Needles with attached Handles. The conical tip of each delivery Needle is designed to allow for passage through tissue. The Needles are a tool and together with the Sling Connectors and Sheaths, facilitate placement of the Sling and are not implanted.

The ArcSP Sling assembly is identical to the predicate. ArcTV Sling assembly and includes one knitted polypropylene mesh with an integrated bioresorbable Suture, two removable plastic insertion Sheaths, and two Sling Connectors. The Suture is an integral feature of the Mesh. The integrated Suture helps to minimize deformation of the mesh during sling insertion and placement and allows for adjustment of the Sling after removal of the Sheaths. The two plastic Sheaths cover and facilitate placement of the Sling. The Mesh and the bioresorbable Suture are permanently implanted.

  • Dimensional .
  • Needle Functional Testing ●
  • *Sling Functional Testing ●
  • *Fatigue
  • *Tensile
  • *Packaging Testing

  • No testing was repeated for this submission since the Sling implant assembly and packaging are identical to the predicate, ArcTV.

7.11 DEVICE COMPARISON

The ArcSP Suprapubic Sling System consists of the following:

  • 1 ArcSP Sling with bio-resorbable Suture and plastic sheath
  • 2 ArcSP Handle and Needle Delivery Assemblies .

The ArcSP Suprapubic Sling is identical to the predicate sling, ArcTV. The delivery approach of the sling is suprapubic for the subject device (ArcSP) versus transvaginal for the predicate device (ArcTV); therefore, the shape of the needle has changed to facilitate a suprapubic delivery. The final placement of the sling is the same for both. The two different Needles are to accommodate physician's preference of approach to implant.

The following table compares the subject device, ArcSP to the predicate device, ArcTV and the reference device, SPARC.

7.12 SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

The ArcSP Suprapubic Sling System covered by this substantially equivalent to the predicate ArcTV Transvaginal Sling System device (K183134). The minor difference in the shape and size of the needle to optimize the ArcSP's top-down needle passage and technique do not raise new safety and efficacy as the shape, size and stiffness of the needle is the same as the technological reference.

7.13 CONCLUSION

Since the implantable sling assembly system is identical to the predicate, ArcTV and the intended use is the same, the ArcSP is substantially equivalent to its predicate. The minor difference in the shape, size and stiffness of the needle does not raise any new questions of safety or efficacy.
