It is able to absorb blood corresponding to about 50 times its own weight and when implanted in vivo, it is completely absorbed within approximately 3 weeks. Gelita-Spon is identical to the predicate device in components, composition, specification, manufacture and packaging. Additional testing to confirm compliance with all test criteria in the USP, specifically including certain biocompatibility tests the methodology of which are slightly different from ISO 10993, was performed following FDA guidance in order to append 'USP' to the product name. Gelita-Spon® Absorbable Gelatin Sponge USP is indicated for use to control minimal bleeding by tamponade effect, blood absorption and platelet aggregation following ENT surgery and also to prevent adhesions in the nasal cavity. | Section 3: 510(k) Summary {1}------------------------------------------------ | Submitter:<br>CuraMedical, B.V. | Gelita-Spon® Absorbable Gelatin Sponge, USP<br>Premarket Notification Special 510(k) | |------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Summary of<br>Technological<br>Characteristics | A table comparing Gelita-Spon to the predicate devices is attached.<br>This comparison demonstrates the substantial equivalence of Gelita-<br>Spon to the predicate devices. | | Conclusion | The information discussed above demonstrates that Gelita-Spon®<br>Absorbable Gelatin Sponge, USP is as safe, as effective, and performs<br>as well as or better than the predicate device, Gelita-Spon® Absorbable<br>Gelatin Sponge. | | Declarations | This summary includes only information that is also covered in the body of the 510(k).
