ProGrip™ self-gripping polypropylene mesh is intended for use in reinforcement of abdominal wall soft tissue where weakness exists.
The ProGrip™ self-gripping polypropylene mesh rectangular and square shapes are indicated for inguinal and ventral hernia repair.
Progrip™ self-gripping polypropylene mesh is designed to allow extraperitoneal mesh placement for the repair of inguinal and ventral hernias.
Progrip™ self-gripping polypropylene mesh is made of a non-absorbable knitted monofilament polypropylene textile with resorbable polylactic acid (PLA) monofilament grips on one side. Progrip™ self-gripping polypropylene mesh is available in different shapes and sizes.
The monofilament polylactic acid grips facilitate placing and positioning the mesh, and they contribute to fixation of the mesh to the surrounding tissue for at least eight (8) weeks. The polylactic acid grips are bioresorbable. Over the time, they resorb in vivo by hydrolysis and are metabolized by the body into CO2 and H2O. Preclinical studies showed that the polylactic acid material is essentially resorbed in 36 to 50 months post-implantation. However, the resorption period depends on numerous factors including patient-related factors.
Progrip™ self-gripping polypropylene mesh is a single use device, presented in a double sterile barrier packaging (two Tyvek® pouches). The packed device is terminally sterilized by Ethylene Oxide (EtO) and placed into a commercial box or envelope with the eIFU leaflet and Patient Implant Card (PIC). All the devices are packaged unitary in a commercial box or envelope (single pack configuration: 1 unit per commercial box or envelope).
The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification summary for a medical device (ProGrip™ Self-Gripping Polypropylene Mesh). It does not include acceptance criteria or detailed study results that would typically be reported for an AI/Software as a Medical Device (SaMD).
This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device, rather than proving the device meets specific performance acceptance criteria based on a clinical trial or a machine learning model's performance metrics. As such, the information required cannot be fully extracted based on the input document.
However, I can extract what is mentioned about performance data and the general approach:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
Note: The document does not specify acceptance criteria in terms of quantitative performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy) that would be common for AI/SaMD devices. Instead, it describes performance testing aimed at demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device.
| Acceptance Criteria (Implied) | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Compatibility with trocar passage (visual inspection) | Assessed via in vitro testing. |
| Physical and mechanical performance comparable to predicate | In vitro (bench) tests performed in accordance with FDA Guidance "Guidance for the Preparation of a Premarket Notification Application of a Surgical Mesh" issued March 2, 1999. Results: "Results demonstrate that physical and mechanical performance of the subject are substantially equivalent to the predicate." |
| Usability for laparoscopic approach | Human factors evaluation conducted during development. Evaluated in different configurations to address usability risks. - Simulated use in cadaver model: Surgeons prepared, introduced through trocar, deployed, placed, and fixated mesh. Verified product use in contact with tissue. - Simulated use in abdominal simulator for trocar passage. - Electronic Instructions For Use (eIFU) checked for clarity and understandability. Compliance: "The human factors engineering process applied to the ProGrip™ Self-Gripping Polypropylene Mesh complied with the requirements of IEC 62366-1: 2015 and associated FDA guidance documents." |
| Sterilization, shelf-life, shipping, and biocompatibility are not impacted by changes | Not explicitly stated as "acceptance criteria met" but rather "not impacted by the proposed change," implying that previous validations for the predicate device still hold. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
Given this is a physical medical device (surgical mesh) and the performance data primarily consists of in vitro bench testing and human factors evaluation with cadaver/simulator models, the concept of a "test set" and "data provenance" (country, retrospective/prospective) as typically applied to AI/SaMD is not directly applicable.
- Sample Size for Test Set: Not specified in terms of number of cases or patients as it's not a clinical study on patient data for software performance.
- For the in vitro bench tests, the number of samples tested for each physical/mechanical property is not provided.
- For human factors evaluation, the number of participants (surgeons) or cadaver/simulator instances is not specified.
- Data Provenance: Not applicable in the context of this device's performance evaluation as described.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications
This information is not provided. This type of detail is usually relevant for AI/SaMD where expert annotations establish ground truth for model training and evaluation. For this physical mesh device, expert involvement is mentioned in the human factors evaluation (surgeons using the device in simulated scenarios), but not for establishing "ground truth" in the AI sense.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable for this type of device and study description. Adjudication methods (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) are typically used in clinical studies or expert review processes to resolve disagreements when establishing ground truth for AI/SaMD.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done, Effect Size of AI vs. Without AI Assistance
No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is specifically for evaluating the effectiveness of AI assistance on human reader performance, which is not relevant for a physical surgical mesh.
6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) was done
No, a standalone performance study in the context of an algorithm or AI was not done. The device is a physical mesh, not an algorithm.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
- For physical/mechanical tests: The "ground truth" would be established by standardized measurement techniques and validated in vitro testing methods, with comparison to the predicate device's known performance characteristics.
- For human factors evaluation: The "ground truth" was established by the observations and feedback of participating surgeons during simulated use, confirming that the device could be used effectively and safely via the laparoscopic approach. Compliance with IEC 62366-1: 2015 indicates a structured approach to usability validation rather than a "ground truth" in the AI sense.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. As this is not an AI/SaMD, there is no "training set."
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
Not applicable as there is no "training set."

Progrip™ Self-Gripping Polypropylene Mesh is intended to be used for the reinforcement of abdominal wall soft tissues where weakness exists in procedures involving inguinal and ventral hernia repair by open approach.
Progrip™ self-gripping polypropylene mesh is a sterile non-pyrogenic device made of a non-absorbable knitted monofilament polypropylene textile with resorbable polylactic acid (PLA) monofilament grips on one side.
Progrip™ self-gripping polypropylene mesh is available in different shapes and sizes.
The non-absorbable textile is designed to ensure long term reinforcement of soft tissues.
The monofilament polylactic acid grips facilitate placing and positioning the mesh, and they contribute to fixation of the mesh to the surrounding tissue for at least eight (8) weeks. The polylactic acid grips are bioresorbable. Over the time, they resorb in vivo by hydrolysis and are metabolized by the body into CO2 and H2O. Preclinical studies showed that the polylactic acid material is essentially resorbed in 36 to 50 months post-implantation. However, the resorption period depends on numerous factors including patient-related factors.
Progrip™ self-gripping polypropylene mesh is a single use device, presented in a double sterile barrier packaging (two Tyvek® pouches). The packed device is terminally sterilized by Ethylene Oxide (EtO) and placed into a commercial envelope with the Instructions for Use (IFU) and Patient Implant Card (PIC). All the devices are packaged unitary in a commercial envelope (single pack configuration: 1 unit per commercial envelope).
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Progrip™ Self-Gripping Polypropylene Mesh (K232373). It details the device's characteristics and its substantial equivalence to predicate devices, but it does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria.
The document discusses various performance tests conducted (sterilization, shelf-life, shipping, biocompatibility, in vitro bench tests) to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate device. However, these are presented as evaluations against established standards and guidance documents, rather than against specific, numerical acceptance criteria for a new clinical study.
Furthermore, the document explicitly states: "This premarket submission does not rely on the assessment of clinical performance data to demonstrate substantial equivalence." This indicates that no clinical study was performed for this 510(k) submission.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, study details, sample sizes, expert qualifications, or ground truth establishment because this type of data is not present in the provided text. The submission relies on non-clinical performance and a comparison to predicate devices to establish substantial equivalence.
