Intended Use

The Composix™ L/P Mesh is indicated for use in the reconstruction of soft tissue deficiencies, such as for the repair of hernias and chest wall defects. The Echo PSTM Positioning System is intended to be used to facilitate the delivery of soft tissue prosthetics during laparoscopic hernia repair.

Device Story

Composix™ L/P Mesh with Echo PS™ Positioning System combines a nonabsorbable hernia repair mesh with a removable mesh deployment balloon. Mesh consists of large pore polypropylene and ePTFE layers stitched with PTFE monofilament. Positioning system features an inflatable channel to facilitate laparoscopic unrolling, positioning, and placement of mesh. System includes an introducer tool (metal tines/T-cap assembly) to roll the device for laparoscopic introduction. Inflation assembly updated to a syringe-based apparatus. Used in clinical/surgical settings by surgeons. Device provides structural reinforcement for soft tissue defects; positioning system aids delivery, potentially reducing procedural complexity and improving mesh placement accuracy.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing and in vivo simulated use experiments were conducted. Biocompatibility testing performed per ISO 10993-1. No clinical data provided.

Technological Characteristics

Mesh: Polypropylene and ePTFE layers, PTFE monofilament. Introducer: 304 Stainless Steel (ASTM F899-09e1) and polymer handle. Positioning system: Inflatable polymer channel/tubular structure. Non-electronic, mechanical device. Sterilized.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring reconstruction of soft tissue deficiencies, including hernia repair and chest wall defects. Used by clinicians during laparoscopic hernia repair procedures.

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.

# PREMARKET NOTIFICATION FOR THE COMPOSIX™ L/P MESH WITH ECHO PSTM POSITIONING SYSTEM

-CONFIDENTIAL-SECTION 7

{1}------------------------------------------------

#### Device Description:

The proposed Composix™ L/P Mesh with Echo PSTM Positioning System is comprised of a hernia repair mesh with a pre-attached mesh positioning system (mesh deployment balloon).

The mesh, Composix™ L/P, is a low profile, nonabsorbable, sterile prosthesis designed for the reconstruction of soft tissue deficiencies, previously cleared under K061754. It is constructed of one layer of large pore polypropylene mesh and one layer of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) stitched together with PTFE monofilament.

The Composix™ L/P Mesh described above will be preassembled with the Echo PSTM Positioning System, a removable mesh deployment balloon, previously cleared under K092726. The positioning system is designed to help facilitate laparoscopic deployment, including unrolling, positioning, and placement of the Composix™ L/P Mesh. Additionally, all sizes of the proposed product will be packaged with an Introducer Tool. The Introducer Tool consists of a metal tines/T-cap assembly which is used to roll the proposed device in order to facilitate laparoscopic introduction. The Introducer Tool is identical to that included and cleared under the Composix® L/P Mesh K061754.

#### Intended Use:

The Composix™ L/P Mesh is indicated for use in the reconstruction of soft tissue deficiencies, such as for the repair of hernias and chest wall defects. The Echo PSTM Positioning System is intended to be used to facilitate the delivery of soft tissue prosthetics during laparoscopic hernia repair.

# Summary of Similarities and Differences in Technological Characteristics, Performance and Intended Use:

The Composix™ L/P Mesh and the predicate mesh have the same indication: reinforce soft tissue, i.e., repair of hernias and chest wall defects. The proposed product has the same intended use, physical attributes, performance characteristics, and materials as the predicate Bard Composix™ L/P Mesh.

The proposed Composix™ L/P Mesh with Echo PSTM Positioning System simply combines two previously cleared devices: K061754 (which included the Introducer Tool) and K092726, the predicate mesh positioning system. However, for optimal functionality in combination with the Composix™ Mesh that is part of the proposed product, two changes have been made to the positioning system. These modifications include a change to the shape of the positioning system and a change to the type of inflation assembly that is to be used with the positioning system. Similar to its predicate device, the Echo PSTM

Positioning System has an inflatable channel or tubular structure. However, the predicate device shape was based on a universal design concept in order for it to be compatible with currently marketed mesh devices from various manufacturers, whereas the proposed product is provided in an oval shaped to better match the shape and configuration of the Composix™ L/P Mesh. The second change addresses the positioning system inflation assembly which has been updated to a syringe inflation apparatus, replacing the original bulb type inflation apparatus, as used for the predicate device positioning system. The Echo PSTM Positioning System maintains the same intended use, physical attributes, performance characteristics, and materials as the Mesh GPSTM Deployment Balloon (K092726).

The Introducer Tool that will be packaged with all size configurations of the proposed device is the same as the Introducer Tool currently provided in the predicate Composix™ L/P Mesh device, as cleared in K061754.

#### Performance Data:

Biocompatibility testing in accordance to ISO 10993-1 standards was conducted on the proposed device (mesh and positioning system) and the results indicate that the device is biocompatible per these standards.

No biocompatibility testing was conducted on the Introducer Tool to be packaged with the proposed device as the 304 Stainless Steel material used for the rolling tines is a recognized biocompatible material as per ASTM F899 - 09e1 Standard Specification for Wrought Stainless Steels for Surgical Instruments. In addition. the polymer handle attached to the rolling tines and the T-cap are non patient contacting material, and therefore, not subject to biocompatibility testing requirements.

Bench testing results and in vivo simulated use experiments demonstrate that the proposed device design meets product specifications and intended uses.

All test results provided in this submission support the safety and effectiveness of the device for its intended use and demonstrate that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices.
