Hem-O-Lok® ligating clips are intended for use in procedures involving ligation of vessels or tissue structures. Surgeons should match clip size to the size of the vessel or tissue structure to be ligated.
Weck Closure System's Hem-O-Lok® ligation clip is a manually applied hemostatic clip intended to connect internal tissues to aid healing. Hem-O-Lok® causes hemostasis through vessel ligation. The clip is nonabsorbable and is manufactured from polyacctal. The clips are housed in a cartridge and packaged in a rigid plastic blister with Tyvek coated lidding which is sold sterile. The method of sterilization will be EtO with a SAL of 10°. The blister packs are fitted into an overpack carton which serves as the sales unit.
I am sorry, but based on the provided text, there is no information about acceptance criteria, a study proving device performance, sample sizes, data provenance, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, or how ground truth was established.
The document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (Hem-O-Lok® Ligation Clips) and primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device. It describes the device, its intended use, and its technological characteristics. There is no mention of a performance study with specific criteria or results.
