The raw material used for both medical devices is commonly used in surgical applications and has been proven to be biocompatible. #### Performance data Non-clinical laboratory testing was performed demonstrating that the device complied with the USP Monographs and with the EP Monographs for non-absorbable surgical sutures. #### Conclusions Based on the 510(k) summary (21 CFR 807) and the information provided herein, we conclude that our New Medical Device PREMIO® is substantially equivalent to the Predicate Device PRONOVA™ under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmations {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the seal of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
