We are investigating several hernia mesh systems including some manufactured by Atrium, Bard Davol, Ethicon (a division of Johnson and Johnson) and Covidien.
The Food and Drug Administration is faced with the daunting task of regulating medical devices. These devices are categorized according to the risks that the products present. Class I products are the least dangerous and least regulated. Class II devices present a greater risk and need regulation to assure safety of customers. Class III devices are generally the most dangerous because they sustain or support life.

Goods that are entirely new to the market will have to submit a Premarket Approval application. This specific application has to demonstrate scientific evidence acquired through human clinical studies that display that the device is effective and safe for its expected use. This is the most thorough level of examination that the FDA performs when it comes to product approval. As a result of regulation, accomplishing this is going to take a minimum of 180 days, but often longer. Once the decision has been made by the FDA either the product will proceed to market, or the owner of the product can ask for reconsideration of the denial.

This process is needed for all new Class III devices.
Not every devices which might be proposed will have to submit a Premarket Approval application. Goods that are substantially equivalent to a device that has already been accepted and is available on the market aren't required to provide at PMA. Instead of a PMA, under the 510(k) process, a Premarket Notification, or PMN becomes necessary for substantially similar devices. A device is substantially similar if it is at least as safe and effective as a prior-approved product. Substantially equivalent does not necessarily mean the exact same, but it should have the same designated use and technological functions OR the same intended use and different options, but won't raise safety concerns.

The PMN procedure usually takes 90 days, in comparison to the 180+ day process for the PMA. Once approved, the maker can market the product. If unapproved, the manufacture may reapply together with newer data, demand a lower classification, or attempt a PMA. The fast track method is commonly criticized as letting products to marketplace prematurely, lacking the necessary guarantees of safety. However, one can find techniques in place to handle all aspects of device approval.
