The device description and intended use describe a purely mechanical device for temporary mesh fixation during laparoscopic hernia repair. There is no mention of any software, data processing, or AI/ML terms.
Yes
The device is used to facilitate permanent placement of surgical mesh during laparoscopic hernia repair, which is a therapeutic surgical procedure to fix a hernia.
No.
This device is designed for temporary mesh fixation during laparoscopic hernia repair, which is a therapeutic surgical procedure, not a diagnostic one. It physically manipulates the mesh for placement, rather than gathering information about a patient's condition for diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical stylet and cannula, which are hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states the device is a surgical tool used during a laparoscopic hernia repair procedure to temporarily hold surgical mesh in place. It is used directly on the patient's abdominal wall, not on a sample taken from the patient.
- Lack of Diagnostic Testing: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples or provide diagnostic information. Its function is purely mechanical and procedural.
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a surgical instrument or accessory, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Temporary mesh fixation to the inner surface of the abdominal wall to facilitate the permanent placement, by stapling, of the mesh when used in the standard fixation technique for Laparoscopic Hernia Repair.

Device Description
Stylet with 16 gauge Cannula, for insertion through a separate incision into the abdominal cavity, in Laparoscopic Hernia Repair, to capture and temporarily hold. with spring retraction, the surgical mesh against the abdominal wall for permanent attachment by stapling. On completion of stapling, the stylet and cannula are advanced to release the mesh, enclose the hook within the cannula and safely remove the Hernia Mesh Stabilizer from the surgical site.

§ 876.1500 Endoscope and accessories.
(a)
Identification. An endoscope and accessories is a device used to provide access, illumination, and allow observation or manipulation of body cavities, hollow organs, and canals. The device consists of various rigid or flexible instruments that are inserted into body spaces and may include an optical system for conveying an image to the user's eye and their accessories may assist in gaining access or increase the versatility and augment the capabilities of the devices. Examples of devices that are within this generic type of device include cleaning accessories for endoscopes, photographic accessories for endoscopes, nonpowered anoscopes, binolcular attachments for endoscopes, pocket battery boxes, flexible or rigid choledochoscopes, colonoscopes, diagnostic cystoscopes, cystourethroscopes, enteroscopes, esophagogastroduodenoscopes, rigid esophagoscopes, fiberoptic illuminators for endoscopes, incandescent endoscope lamps, biliary pancreatoscopes, proctoscopes, resectoscopes, nephroscopes, sigmoidoscopes, ureteroscopes, urethroscopes, endomagnetic retrievers, cytology brushes for endoscopes, and lubricating jelly for transurethral surgical instruments. This section does not apply to endoscopes that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
Classification —(1)Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an endoscope disinfectant basin, which consists solely of a container that holds disinfectant and endoscopes and accessories; an endoscopic magnetic retriever intended for single use; sterile scissors for cystoscope intended for single use; a disposable, non-powered endoscopic grasping/cutting instrument intended for single use; a diagnostic incandescent light source; a fiberoptic photographic light source; a routine fiberoptic light source; an endoscopic sponge carrier; a xenon arc endoscope light source; an endoscope transformer; an LED light source; or a gastroenterology-urology endoscopic guidewire, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.(2) Class I for the photographic accessories for endoscope, miscellaneous bulb adapter for endoscope, binocular attachment for endoscope, eyepiece attachment for prescription lens, teaching attachment, inflation bulb, measuring device for panendoscope, photographic equipment for physiologic function monitor, special lens instrument for endoscope, smoke removal tube, rechargeable battery box, pocket battery box, bite block for endoscope, and cleaning brush for endoscope. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 876.9.

K 9815 98
Hernia Mesh Stabilizer Device Name: 1. Classification Name: Laparoscopic Accessory Predicate Device: GraNee Needle System for Hernia Repair. During 2. Laparoscopic Hernia Repair, the GraNee Needle enters the abdominal wall through a separate incision and captures the sutures attached to the surgical mesh, withdraws the sutures and either permanently attaches the mesh in place with the sutures or holds the mesh against the abdominal wall for permanent attachment with staples. Stylet with 16 gauge Cannula, for insertion through a 3. Device Description: separate incision into the abdominal cavity, in Laparoscopic Hernia Repair, to capture and temporarily hold. with spring retraction, the surgical mesh against the abdominal wall for permanent attachment by stapling. On completion of stapling, the stylet and cannula are advanced to release the mesh, enclose the hook within the cannula and safely remove the Hernia Mesh Stabilizer from the surgical site. 4. Intended Use: Temporary mesh fixation to the inner surface of the abdominal wall to facilitate the permanent placement, by stapling, of the mesh when used in the standard fixation technique for Laparoscopic Hernia Repair. 5. Comparative Summary: Both the Hernia Mesh Stabilizer and the predicate device enter the surgical site through separate incisions to capture and hold surgical mesh against the abdominal wall prior to permanent stapling of the mesh over the herniated area. Both devices have internal body contact surfaces made of stainless steel and are provided to the user packaged sterile, for single use.

Dear Mr. Parker:
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. 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.
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 requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (OS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, 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.
