Dear Mr. Maor:
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's
{1}------------------------------------------------
requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97).

# Indications for Use
The TissueTak device is intended for fixation of prosthetic or biologic material to soft tissues in various minimally invasive and open surgical procedures such as hernia or rotator cuff repairs.
# Purpose of 510(k)
The purpose of this 510(k) is to describe the modifications made to the cleared FasTouch Absorbable Fixation System.
# Description
The TissueTak device is a disposable, sterile single-use system designed to deliver absorbable fastener into tissue and prosthesis during general surgery procedures such as hernia or rotator cuff repairs.
The Via Surgical TissueTak device, is designed to be inserted through a 5mm or larger laparoscopic port sleeve.
The fasteners two ends are designed to be locked together in the tissue by the TissueTak firing mechanism, thus forming a closed locked loop into the tissue affixing the surgical mesh/patch to the tissue. The fasteners are absorbable and made of PURASORB PLG 8218 dye with D&C violet No. 2.
The only change in the TissueTak device from the cleared FasTouch Absorbable Fixation System include clarification of the intended use wording to include rotator cuff repair.
# Substantial Equivalence Discussion
The TissueTak device has the same intended use and indications for use, and similar principles of operation, and technological characteristics as the cleared device. The minor differences in the intended use words do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness. Performance data demonstrated that the modified TissueTak is as safe and effective as its predicate device. Thus, the modified TissueTak device is substantially equivalent to its predicate device.
