## Indications for Use

The mesh implant is intended for use as a suburethral sling for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence resulting from hypermobility and/or intrinsic sphincter deficiency.

## Device Story

Obtryx II System is a sterile, single-use suburethral sling assembly used for treating female stress urinary incontinence. The device consists of a blue knitted polypropylene monofilament mesh implant and two delivery devices (Halo or Curved). The delivery device features a polymer handle and a stainless steel needle with a slotted tip for attaching the mesh association loop. During surgery, the physician uses the delivery device to place the mesh implant suburethrally. The mesh provides support to the urethra to address incontinence resulting from hypermobility or intrinsic sphincter deficiency. The device is intended for clinical use by physicians.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Evidence consists of bench testing to verify performance specifications and biocompatibility testing conducted in accordance with EN ISO 10993-1.

## Technological Characteristics

Synthetic mesh implant made of blue knitted polypropylene monofilament fiber. Includes association loops, dilator legs, sleeves, leader loops, center tab, and lead. Delivery system includes polymer handle and stainless steel needle. Biocompatibility tested per EN ISO 10993-1. Sterile, single-use.

## Regulatory 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.

## Predicate Devices

- Advantage, Advantage Fit & Lynx Systems ([K020110](/device/K020110.md))
- Obtryx, Prefyx Systems ([K040787](/device/K040787.md))

Image /page/1/Picture/2 description: The image shows a black and white picture with some dark spots. The spots are scattered across the image, with some appearing larger and more defined than others. The background is a plain white, which makes the dark spots stand out. The image is simple and lacks any complex details.

The proposed sling is packaged with (2) delivery devices (Halo or Curved) which are used in conjunction with the mesh assembly to place the mesh implant. Each of the delivery devices consist of a polymer handle and a stainless steel needle which extends from the handle. The tip of the needle has a slot which is used to attach the association loop of the mesh assembly.

## F. Intended Use

The mesh implant is intended for use as a suburethral sling for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence resulting from hypermobility and/or intrinsic sphincter deficiency.

## G. Technological Characteristics

The proposed sling has the same and/or equivalent technological characteristics (i.e. mesh design and mesh material) as the predicates K020110 & K040787.

## H. Substantial Equivalence

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 sling is substantially equivalent to the predicate sling in terms of intended use, technological characteristics, and performance characteristics tested. The proposed sling is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the predicate devices.

## I . Non-Clinicial Testing

Material testing was performed to demostrate that the material properites are suitable for the intended use.

Bench testing was performed to demostrate that the device as manufactured meets performance specifications. Test results demostrate that the device meets the predetermine specifications and is acceptable for clinical use.

Biocompatiblity testing was performed in accordance to standard EN ISO 10993-1 for each of the patient contacting materials, and results demonstrate that the device is biocompatible for its intended use.

## Conclusion:

Based on material, biocompatiblity, bench testing, and the proposed device labeling, the Obtryx II System is substantially equivalent to the identified predicate devices in terms of intended, use , safety and effectiveness.

#### Dear Ms. McGrath:

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 application (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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
