Intended Use

MOTIFMESH™ Soft Tissue Patch is intended to assist in the repair and/or reinforcement of hernia and other fascial defects requiring the additional support of a nonabsorbable implant during and after wound healing.

Device Story

MOTIFMESH™ Soft Tissue Patch is a nonabsorbable, inert, sterile, macroporous surgical mesh made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). Designed for reinforcement and repair of damaged or ruptured soft tissue structures, including hernias and fascial defects. The implant features a high-strength film with closed-cell openings, allowing bidirectional stretching to accommodate tissue defects. During use, the mesh facilitates a fibroblastic response through its interstices, resulting in the formation of a strong fibrous wall. The device is intended for use by surgeons in clinical settings to provide additional support during and after the wound healing process.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Testing confirmed mechanical characterization values (burst and tensile strength) and biocompatibility (non-toxic, non-sensitizing) are equivalent to predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Material: Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). Form factor: Macroporous surgical patch, 0.006" +/- 0.001" thickness. Principle: Mechanical reinforcement of soft tissue via fibroblastic ingrowth. Sterilization: Sterile. Connectivity: None.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring repair or reinforcement of hernia and other fascial defects needing nonabsorbable implant support during and after wound healing.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

Surgical mesh is a metallic or polymeric screen intended to be implanted to reinforce soft tissue or bone where weakness exists. Examples of surgical mesh are metallic and polymeric mesh for hernia repair, and acetabular and cement restrictor mesh used during orthopedic surgery.

SUBSTANTIALLY EQUIVALENT TO: MOTIFMESH™ Soft Tissue Patch is substantially equivalent to the Bard PTFE Mesh. (Davol Inc.), Mersilene Mesh (Ethicon) and the Bard Mesh (Davol Inc.), a polypropylene mesh.

#### DESCRIPTION of the DEVICE:

MOTIFMESH™ Soft Tissue Patch is a nonabsorbable, inert, sterile, macro porous surgical soft tissue patch Produced from polytetrafluoroethylene. The MotifMesh TM Soft Tissue Patch is designed to facilitate the reinforcement and repair of damaged or ruptured soft tissue structures. The implant has a structure characterized by closed cell openings in a high strength film. The construction allows the soft tissue patch to be stretched in both directions, to accommodate and reinforce tissue defects. The soft tissue patch measures 0.006''+/. 001" in thickness and exhibits high burst strength and tensile strength. Use of MOTIFMESH™ Soft Tissue Patch allows a fibroblastic response through the interstices of the implant, forming a strong fibrous wall.

#### INDICATIONS FOR USE:

MOTIFMESH™ Soft Tissue Patch is intended to assist in the repair and/or reinforcement of hemia and other fascial defects requiring the additional support of a nonabsorbable implant during and after wound healing.

#### SUMMARY of TESTING:

Bench test data reveal the applicant device has mechanical characterisation values, which are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. The biocompatibility test results show that the material used in the design and manufacture of the device are non-toxic and non-sensitizing to biological tissues consistent with their intended use.
