Intended Use

Indicated for thoracic reconstruction procedures for replacement of diseased segments of the thoracic aorta in cases of aneurysm, dissection, or coarctation. Indicated for repair or replacement of damaged and diseased vessels of the abdomen in cases of aneurysmal or occlusive disease. Indicated for the repair or replacement of damaged and diseased thoracic aorta in cases of aneurysm, dissection or coarctation. Indicated for repair or replacement of damaged and diseased vessels of the abdomen and thoracic aorta in cases of aneurysm, dissection or coarctation. Repair or replacement of damaged and diseased vessels of the thoracic aorta in cases of aneurysm, dissection or coarctation. Gelweave branched vascular prostheses, including Siena™ vascular prostheses can also be used for debranching, i.e. reconstruction of the aortic vessels and associated Hybrid procedures.

Device Story

Gelweave vascular prostheses are gelatin-sealed woven polyester grafts used for vascular repair/replacement. Device functions as a mechanical conduit for blood flow in thoracic and abdominal aortic reconstruction. Used in surgical settings by vascular surgeons. Provides structural support to replace diseased vessel segments; gelatin sealant minimizes initial porosity/bleeding. Benefits include restoration of vascular integrity and blood flow in patients with aneurysmal or occlusive disease.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by nonclinical testing including physical testing, biocompatibility testing, chemical characterization, and an animal performance study.

Technological Characteristics

Woven polyester textile vascular graft; gelatin-sealed. Materials and design identical to predicates. Radiopaque markers included in specific configurations. No software or electronic components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring repair or replacement of damaged/diseased thoracic aorta or abdominal vessels due to aneurysm, dissection, coarctation, or occlusive disease. Includes use in debranching and hybrid procedures.

Regulatory Classification

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.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Guidance Document for Vascular Prostheses 510(k) Submissions.”

### ldentification of the legally marketed device to which equivalence is being claimed Vascutek are claiming equivalence to the following legally marketed devices:

Gelweave™ Vascular Grafts (Bifurcated Configuration); K964665 ●

- Gelweave Valsalva™ Vascular Grafts; K013022 .
- Gelweave Siena™ Collared Ante-Flo and Plexus Vascular Grafts with Radiopaque ● Markers; K060142
- Gelweave™ Branched Vascular Grafts with Radiopaque Markers; K093817 ●

### Device Description

Gelweave™ vascular prostheses are gelatin sealed woven polyester grafts, designed for vascular repair.

The Vascutek Gelweave polyester vascular graft family, which is the subject of this pre-market notification, is based on woven polyester textile technology.

K162794

{9}------------------------------------------------

The indications for use of the Gelweave vascular grafts are detailed below.

These are identical to the indications for use of the predicate devices.

Gelweave vascular grafts: "Indicated for thoracic reconstruction procedures for replacement of diseased segments of the thoracic aorta in cases of aneurysm, dissection, or coarctation."

Gelweave vascular grafts (Bifurcated Configuration); "Indicated for repair or replacement of damaged and diseased vessels of the abdomen in cases of aneurysmal or occlusive disease."

Gelweave Valsalva vascular grafts: "Indicated for the repair or replacement of damaged and diseased thoracic aorta in cases of aneurysm, dissection or coarctation."

Gelweave Branched Vascular Prostheses with or without radiopaque markers: "Indicated for repair or replacement of damaged and diseased vessels of the abdomen and thoracic aorta in cases of aneurysm, dissection or coarctation."

Gelweave Collared Ante-Flo and Plexus Vascular Prostheses (with and without radiopaque markers): "Repair or replacement of damaged and diseased vessels of the thoracic aorta in cases of aneurysm, dissection or coarctation."

Gelweave Branched Vascular Prostheses, including Siena™ Vascular Prostheses: "Gelweave branched vascular prostheses, including Siena™ vascular prostheses can also be used for debranching, i.e. reconstruction of the aortic vessels and associated Hybrid procedures." Hybrid procedures are defined as a treatment combination employing open surgical debranching with endovascular aortic repair.

### Technological Characteristics

Equivalency is based on identical design, technology, construction and intended use.

The only change is that the gelatin used to seal the grafts will be purchased from a new supplier.

The nonclinical testing performed, including physical and biocompatibility testing, chemical characterisation and an animal performance study, have demonstrated that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
