Intended Use

The proposed LITE mesh kits are intended for tissue reinforcement and stabilization of fascial structures of the pelvic floor for vaginal wall prolapse, where surgical treatment is intended, either as mechanical support or bridging material for the fascial defect.

Device Story

LITE Pelvic Floor Repair Kits are sterile, single-use surgical mesh assemblies designed for transvaginal repair of anterior, apical, and posterior prolapse. Device consists of macroporous polypropylene knitted mesh with integrated legs protected by disposable polymer sleeves; includes lead with needle for use with Capio Open Access Suture Capturing Device. Used by surgeons in clinical/OR settings to provide mechanical support or bridging material for fascial defects. Mesh is lightweight, low-density version of previously cleared Pinnacle and Uphold systems. Facilitates passage through bodily tissues for placement; provides structural stabilization to pelvic floor.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Performance testing included mechanical evaluation (thickness, pore size, density, tensile strength, stiffness, burst strength, suture pullout strength, flexibility) and biocompatibility testing (cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, acute systemic toxicity, sub-acute toxicity, genotoxicity, implantation).

Technological Characteristics

Macroporous polypropylene knitted mesh; lightweight, low-density configuration. Same fiber material and diameter as predicates but with larger pore size. Includes disposable polymer sleeves, needle, and lead assembly. Sterile, single-use.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring surgical treatment for vaginal wall prolapse, specifically for tissue reinforcement and stabilization of pelvic floor fascial structures.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

Surgical mesh for transvaginal pelvic organ prolapse repair is a prescription device intended to reinforce soft tissue in the pelvic floor. This device is a porous implant that is made of synthetic material, non-synthetic material, or a combination of synthetic and non-synthetic materials. This device does not include surgical mesh for other intended uses (§ 878.3300 of this chapter).

# E. Device Description

The proposed devices were submitted to introduce lightweight versions of previously cleared pelvic floor repair kits: Pinnacle Anterior/Apical, Pinnacle Posterior, Pinnacle Duet and Uphold Vaginal Support System. The proposed mesh configurations were designed for performing transvaginal vaginal wall repair to facilitate treatment of anterior, apical and posterior prolapse repairs. These devices are sterile, single use devices, consisting of one or two light-weight synthetic mesh assemblies and a needle holder.

The mesh assemblies consist of a macroporous polypropylene knitted mesh body with integrated legs that are protected by disposable polymer sleeves. At the distal end of the disposable polymer sleeve is a lead with needle designed for use with the Capio The Open Access Suture Capturing Device. The disposable lead was designed to facilitate the passage of the proposed mesh through bodily tissues for placement.

### F. Intended Use

The proposed LITE mesh kits are intended for tissue reinforcement and stabilization of fascial structures of the pelvic floor for vaginal wall prolapse, where surgical treatment is intended, either as mechanical support or bridging material for the fascial defect.

### G. Technological Characteristics

The proposed device has the same mesh fiber materials and fiber diameter as the predicates but is knit with a larger pore size to create a lighter, lower density mesh.

# H. Substantial Equivalence/ Performance Testing (Bench)

Utilizing FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff "Format for Traditional and Abbreviated 510(k)s" and "Guidance for the Preparation of a Premarket Notification Application for a Surgical Mesh", a direct comparison of key characteristics demonstrates that the proposed mesh is substantially equivalent to the predicate mesh in terms of intended use, technological characteristics, and performance characteristics tested.

Boston Scientific conducted mechanical performance and biocompatibility testing to demonstrate the equivalence of the LITE mesh to the predicate devices. The mesh mechanical performance testing included mesh thickness, pore size, density, tensile strength, stiffness, burst strength, suture pullout strength, and mesh flexibility. In addition, Boston Scientific evaluated the tensile strengths of the mesh assembly including the components of the leg assemblies (needle, lead, dilator, protective sleeve and leader loop). Boston Scientific also evaluated the force to remove the leg assemblies from the mesh.

Biocompatibility testing on the LITE kits' materials of construction included cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, acute systemic toxicity, sub acute toxicity, genotoxicity and implantation.

The results of the performance testing demonstrate equivalence of the LITE Pelvic Floor Repair kits to the predicate devices.

Dear Ms. Berry:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of September 14, 2011.

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug. and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
