The Vascutek Graft Sizer Set is designed to aid the surgeon in accurately matching the size of vascular graft to the artery. The size of graft to be selected will correspond with the number indicated on the graft sizer which best fits the outside of the vessel.
The Vascutek Graft Sizer Set consists of nine individual double-ended 'C' shaped graft sizers. The nine sizers are secured within a clip and are available in a size range from 5 to 32 mm. The graft sizers are supplied sterile and are for single use only.
This document is a 510(k) summary for the Vascutek Graft Sizer Set. It does not contain the detailed information required to answer your questions about acceptance criteria, study data, ground truth establishment, or sample sizes related to AI/device performance.
The provided text focuses on:

December 6, 1995
The Vascutek Graft Sizer Set consists of nine individual double-ended 'C' shaped graft sizers. The nine sizers are secured within a clip and are available in a size range from 5 to 32 mm. The graft sizers are supplied sterile and are for single use only.
The Vascutek Graft Sizer Set is designed to aid the surgeon in accurately matching the size of vascular graft to the artery. The size of graft to be selected will correspond with the number indicated on the graft sizer which best fits the outside of the vessel.
Biocompatibility tests conducted on the finished device showed that the material is non-hemolytic, non-cytotoxic, and non-pyrogenic. In addition, extensive biocompatibility testing conducted on the material demonstrates its suitability for medical uses in devices and packaging. In addition, it has been shown that the material meets the requirements of USP Class VI-50, being compatible with blood and demonstrating no cytotoxic, mutagenic, or irritant potential.
CarboMedics considers the Vascutek Graft Sizer Set to be equivalent in intended use, composition, design, and function to the Meadox Graft Sizer manufactured by Meadox Medical, Inc. Marketing clearance was granted by the FDA for 510(k) number K854431 on May 7, 1986, for the Meadox Graft Sizer.

§ 870.3450 Vascular graft prosthesis.
(a)
Identification. A vascular graft prosthesis is an implanted device intended to repair, replace, or bypass sections of native or artificial vessels, excluding coronary or cerebral vasculature, and to provide vascular access. It is commonly constructed of materials such as polyethylene terephthalate and polytetrafluoroethylene, and it may be coated with a biological coating, such as albumin or collagen, or a synthetic coating, such as silicone. The graft structure itself is not made of materials of animal origin, including human umbilical cords.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Guidance Document for Vascular Prostheses 510(k) Submissions.”
