No
The summary describes a surgical mesh, a physical implant, and contains no mention of software, algorithms, or any terms related to AI/ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for the treatment of hernias and as a sling material to support bladder repositioning, which are therapeutic interventions.

No
The device, a surgical mesh, is used for treatment (hernia repair, bladder support), not for identifying or diagnosing a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly states "Brennen Biosynthetic Surgical Mesh Matrix," which is a physical implantable material, not software.

Based on the provided information, the Brennen Biosynthetic Surgical Mesh is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes the device being used in vivo (within the body) for surgical repair of hernias and as a sling for urinary incontinence. IVDs are used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens from the human body.
  • Device Description: The description is of a surgical mesh matrix, which is a physical implant used in surgery.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in those samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening

Therefore, the Brennen Biosynthetic Surgical Mesh is a surgical implant, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Herland:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of September 22, 1998.

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 (PMA). 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 (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.
