To meet the changing needs of {1}------------------------------------------------ #### page 20f2 X D13653 ## Hollister ## Hollister Incorporated InCare Pressure Biofeedback Vaginal and Anal Pressure Probes Hollister's customers the InCare Biofeedback Vaginal Pressure Probe and Anal Pressure Probe has been constructed with a silicone bladder. The InCare Pressure Biofeedback Vaginal Pressure Probe and Anal Pressure Probe (with silicone bladder) and the InCare Pressure Biofeedback Vaginal Pressure Probe and Anal Pressure Probe (K891774 - 8/23/89) are equivalent in intended use, manufacturing processes and labeling as a biofeedback therapy device for the treatment of urinary incontinence. Furthermore, product performance test results demonstrate the InCare Pressure Biofeedback Vaginal Pressure Probe and Anal Pressure Probe (with silicone bladder) and the InCare Pressure Biofeedback Vaginal Pressure Probe and Anal Pressure Probe (K891774) are equivalent in product performance. Biocompatibility assessment of the silicone bladder has been conducted based on the principles and guidelines established by various governmental regulatory agencies and standard setting organizations. Among these are the following: United States Pharmacopoeia, General program memorandum #G95-1, United States Food and Drug Administration Office of Device Evaluation and The International Standards Organization ISO 10993-1 Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices. Based upon the results of this assessment, the silicone bladder material is considered biocompatible and appropriate for its intended use. #### 7. Conclusion Based on information presented above and in the body of this premarket notification the InCare Pressure Biofeedback Vaginal Pressure Probe and Anal Pressure Probe with silicone bladder are substantially equivalent to devices currently in commercial distribution. {2}------------------------------------------------ #### DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the words "Public Health Service" in bold, black font.
