HyperSuture All Blue Extension Line (both tape and cable) are indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in cardiovascular procedures, and the use of allograft tissue for orthopedic procedures.
HyperSuture All Blue Extension Line cables are non-absorbable, sterile, surgical sutures, composed of multiple multifilament strands of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) braided together to form the implant. HyperSuture All Blue Extension Line cables are available in USP 2 and USP 5 and meet all surgical suture requirements established by the USP for class II non-absorbable surgical sutures.
HyperSuture All Blue Extension Line tapes are non-absorbable, sterile, surgical braids, composed of multiple multifilament strands of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) braided together to form the implant. HyperSuture tape sizes do not conform to USP diameter requirements; however, HyperSuture tapes meet USP tensile strength and needle attachment strength requirements for equivalent USP size sutures. HyperSuture tape sizes are available in 1.5mm tape (USP 2 equivalent) and 2.0mm tape (USP 5 equivalent).
Both HyperSuture All Blue Extension Line cables and tapes are available in blue, 36 inches in length, and with or without pre-attached needles.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the HyperSuture All Blue Extension Line. This document is a regulatory submission to the FDA for a medical device and describes its equivalence to a predicate device. It does not contain information related to software performance, clinical studies, or AI algorithm validation. The device in question is a surgical suture, not a software or AI-powered diagnostic tool.
Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information (acceptance criteria, study details, sample sizes, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, ground truth types, or training set details) because these are concepts applicable to software or AI device validation, which is not what this document addresses.
The document focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to a predicate device based on material, manufacturing, and physical performance characteristics, primarily adhering to USP (United States Pharmacopeia) standards for surgical sutures.
§ 878.5000 Nonabsorbable poly(ethylene terephthalate) surgical suture.
(a)
Identification. Nonabsorbable poly(ethylene terephthalate) surgical suture is a multifilament, nonabsorbable, sterile, flexible thread prepared from fibers of high molecular weight, long-chain, linear polyesters having recurrent aromatic rings as an integral component and is indicated for use in soft tissue approximation. The poly(ethylene terephthalate) surgical suture meets U.S.P. requirements as described in the U.S.P. Monograph for Nonabsorbable Surgical Sutures; it may be provided uncoated or coated; and it may be undyed or dyed with an appropriate FDA listed color additive. Also, the suture may be provided with or without a standard needle attached.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is FDA's “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Surgical Sutures; Guidance for Industry and FDA.” See § 878.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.
