The 510(k) summary describes a physical vascular graft made of PTFE. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any computational components that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The focus is on the material properties and physical performance of the graft.
Yes
The device is a vascular graft intended for bypass or reconstruction of occluded or diseased arterial blood vessels, which is a therapeutic intervention.
No
The device is a vascular graft intended for bypass or reconstruction of blood vessels, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly states it is a vascular graft manufactured from physical materials (PTFE resin, lubricant, pigment) and is a physical implantable device. It does not mention any software components.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "bypass or reconstruction of occluded or diseased arterial blood vessels, or the creation of subcutaneous arteriovenous conduits for blood access." This describes a surgical implant used directly within the body.
- Device Description: The description details the materials and construction of a vascular graft, which is a physical implant.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) as a surgical implant.

Device Description
The Perma-Pass™ Vascular Graft is manufactured from the following materials; polytetraflouroethylene (PTFE) resin, lubricant used as a manufacturing aid, and a black pigment used to create the orientation line. These grafts are available in a straight configuration with an internal diameter of 5mm, thin wall, and lengths sufficient to satisfy most vascular graft applications.
The Perma-Pass Graft is constructed from the same materials used in manufacturing the tubing for the Perma-Flow® Coronary Bypass Graft, manufactured by Possis Medical, Inc. and approved under HDE H970005 dated 30 April, 1998. These grafts are supplied in the same packaging as the Perma-Flow Graft and are packaged, labeled and sterilized in the same manner.

Summary of Performance Studies
Extensive testing of in vitro, functional, physical, and biocompatibility tests have been performed on the Perma-Pass Graft. These tests have shown that the Graft performs comparably to the predicate device. All performance results for the Graft and the predicate device exceed physiological requirements for the intended clinical use of the device. Where applicable, tests were conducted using USP or AAMI guidelines and standards. The results were acceptable in all cases.

(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)

NON-CLINICAL TESTS
Extensive testing of in vitro, functional, physical, and biocompatibility tests have been performed on the Perma-Pass Graft. These tests have shown that the Graft performs comparably to the predicate device. All performance results for the Graft and the predicate device exceed physiological requirements for the intended clinical use of the device. Where applicable, tests were conducted using USP or AAMI guidelines and standards. The results were acceptable in all cases.
CONCLUSION
The Perma-Pass Vascular Graft is a 5mm straight vascular prosthesis, intended as a permanent implant for bypass or reconstruction of occluded or diseased arterial blood vessels. The present 510(k) compares the Perma-Pass Graft to a legally marketed predicate device. The intended use, graft configuration, material, labeling, method of use, intended anatomical sites, and the target population of the Perma-Pass Graft are the same as those of the predicate device.
The Perma-Pass Graft is manufactured from PTFE, well known to the market with a long history of successful implantation in the human body. There are no known technological differences between the subject device and the predicate device. Extensive testing has shown the subject device is equivalent to the predicate device.
As summarized above, this 510(k) notification provides adequate information to support a determination of substantial equivalence between the Perma-Pass Graft and its predicate device.
