What is it indicated for?

The Surgisis® Sling is intended for implantation to reinforce soft tissues where weakness exists in the urological, gynecological and gastroenterological anatomy including but not limited to the following procedures: transvaginal repair of stress urinary incontinence, such as pubourethral support and bladder support, and transabdominal repair of apical vaginal prolapse, colon and rectal prolapse, and sacrecolposuspension. By providing pubourethral support, the sling may be used for the treatment of urinary incontinence resulting from urethral hypermobility or intrinsic sphincter deficiency.

The device is supplied sterile and is intended for one-time use.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
