The device is comprised of monofilament polypropylene yarn, which is knitted into a mesh, two self-fixating tips and two guiding suture loops at each end of the device. The device contains a visible midline marker to assist the surgeon in placement of the device. The Desara Mini is available in one configuration and a reusable introducer is available separately. ### Intended Use of Device: Desara Mini is intended to be used in females to position a mesh for treatment of Genuine Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) and mixed incontinence resulting from urethral hypermobility. The mesh is placed transvaginally using a reusable introducer (sold separately) Technological Characteristics The Desara Mini utilizes a similar concept, mesh with self-fixating tips, as that of the predicate device, MiniArc. The Desara Mini is comprised of the same mesh and suture as the predicate device, Desara Mesh. Self-fixating tips are not contained in the predicate device, Desara Mesh. The Desara Mini is a modification of the predicate devices, MiniArc, and Desara Mesh with the same intended use and does not change the fundamental scientific technology of the predicate device.
