The I-STOP Mid-Urethral Sling is intended for the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI) due to urethral hypermobility and/or intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD).
Device Story
I-STOP Mid-Urethral Sling is a surgical mesh device for treating female stress urinary incontinence. Device consists of non-resorbable polypropylene mesh, polyethylene clips, stainless steel implantation needles, and polycarbonate needle handles. Surgeon implants mesh via retropubic (transvaginal or suprapubic) or transobturator (outside-in or inside-out) approaches to provide urethral support. Device is single-use and EtO sterilized. Clinical benefit includes restoration of urethral support to address incontinence.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical experience demonstrated the device functions as intended. Additional biocompatibility testing was performed to support the safety profile.
Technological Characteristics
Non-resorbable polypropylene mesh; stainless steel implantation needles; polycarbonate needle handles. EtO sterilized; single-use. Mechanical support device; no software or energy source.
Indications for Use
Indicated for female patients with stress urinary incontinence (SUI) caused by urethral hypermobility and/or intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD).
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.

#### Intended Use
The I-STOP Mid-Urethral Sling is intended for the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence (SUI) due to urethral hypermobility and/or intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD).
### Device Description
The I-STOP Device is comprised of a non-resorbable polypropylene material woven into a mesh with each end attached to a polyethylene clip, two technique-dependant stainless steel implantation needles and two polycarbonate needle handles. The device is EtO sterilized and intended for single-use only.
#### Indications Statement
The I-STOP Mid-Urethral Sling is intended for the treatment of female stress urinary incontinence due to urethral hypermobility and/or intrinsic sphincter deficiency. Four different I-STOP models allow for implantation of the I-STOP mesh via retropublic (transvaginal or suprapubic) or transobturator (outside-in or inside-out) approaches.
#### Technological Characteristics
The new and predicate devices are technologically the same; they are polypropylene meshes implanted with stainless steel needles to provide urethral support for females patients with SUI. The devices have similar implantation, sterilization, and storage requirements. In the few instances where the devices differ, no additional concerns about safety or effectiveness are raised.
## Performance
Clinical experience with the I-STOP device has demonstrated that it successfully and safely functions as intended. Additional biocompatibility testing supports the safety profile of the I-STOP Sling.
## Conclusion
The I-STOP Mid-Urethral Sling is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, the Tension Free Vaginal Tape (TVT) from Ethicon, Inc. (K974098).

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.
