The summary describes a surgical kit with mechanical components and references predicate devices that are also mechanical in nature. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
Yes
The device is intended for bladder neck suspension to treat stress incontinence, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
The device is described as a "Laparotomy Bladder Neck Suspension Kit" intended for "bladder neck suspension for female stress incontinence," indicating it is a surgical instrument used for treatment, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description explicitly lists physical components (template assembly, suture retriever, suture cutter, suture placement system) and refers to previous clearances for these hardware components. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for a surgical procedure (bladder neck suspension) to treat a medical condition (female stress incontinence). This is a therapeutic intervention performed on the patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from the patient.
- Device Description: The device components are surgical instruments (template assembly, suture retriever, suture cutter, suture placement system) used during a surgical procedure.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device does not fit that description.

The Laparotomy Bladder Neck Suspension Kit is substantially equivalent to the Louisville Laboratories Laparoscopic Bone Anchored Urethropexy Instrument Tray and the Laurus Medical Disposable Suture Placement System. The technological characteristics are similar in that they include several kit components for delivering bone anchors and/or sutures for bladder neck suspension. Both the Laparotomy Bladder Neck Suspension Kit and predicate devices are similar in design in that they both use a method or a component for positioning the sutures to the appropriate anatomical site. Both the Laparotomy Bladder Neck Suspension Kit and predicate products are similar in that they use a standard scissors or a suture cutter for cutting the sutures.

Dear Ms. McNamara-Cullinane:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. However, you are responsible to determine that the medical devices you use as components in the kit have either been determined as substantially equivalent under the premarket notification process (Section 510(k) of the act), or were legally on the market prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments. Please note: If you purchase your device components in bulk (i.e., unfinished) and further process (e.g., sterilize) you must submit a new 510(k) before including these components in your kit. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, and labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval) it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, FDA will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal Laws or Regulations.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market. If you desire specific advice for your device on the labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), picase contact the Office of Compilance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (2 i CFR 807.97). Other general
