The new technological characteristics of the Anchorsure could affect safety and effectiveness. However, the new characteristics do not raise new issues of safety and effectiveness because both devices are used to attachments to the pelvic floor. Accepted scientific methods exist to assess the effects of the new characteristics - specifically those described in the "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Surgical Sutures; Guidance for Industry and FDA" issued on June 3, 2003. {2}------------------------------------------------ P ২/২ DIMA Performance tests: | Performance test | Test description | |------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Sterilization | Ethylene oxide residuals<br>Ethylene chlorohydrins residuals<br>Sterility assurance level (SAL) determination | | Packaging | Accelerated Aging Study | | Biocompatibility | Biocompatibility testing completed on the Surelift Prolapse<br>System (K102815) was used to support the<br>biocompatibility of Anchorsure. | | Mechanical tests | Suture strength evaluated per USP 881.<br>Anchor strength<br>Suture diameter evaluated per USP 861.<br>Pullout strength of the anchor<br>Tensile strength of the suture-anchor interface evaluated<br>per USP 871 | Results of verification testing indicate that the product meets the established performance requirements and standards. ## Conclusions: Anchorsure is substantially equivalent to its proposed predicate device. {3}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/3/Picture/0 description: The image is a seal for the Department of Health & Human Services USA.

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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 requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical OCT 12 2012 {4}------------------------------------------------ Page 2 - device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
