Intended Use

The Smith & Nephew KINSA RC Suture Anchor is intended for use for the reattachment of soft tissue to bone for the following indications: Deltoid Repairs Rotator Cuff Tear repairs Biceps tenodesis

Device Story

The KINSA RC Suture Anchor is a non-degradable soft tissue fixation fastener manufactured from PEEK polymer. It features an integrated suture knot within the anchor body and a suture loop with a tensioning suture. During orthopedic surgery, the surgeon implants the anchor into bone and passes the suture loop through the target soft tissue. The tensioning suture allows the surgeon to secure the tissue repair without requiring manual knot tying. This device is intended for use by surgeons in clinical settings to facilitate soft tissue-to-bone reattachment, potentially simplifying the repair process and improving procedural efficiency.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided.

Technological Characteristics

Material: PEEK polymer. Design: Knotless suture anchor with integrated suture loop and tensioning suture. Function: Soft tissue-to-bone fixation. Non-degradable.

Indications for Use

Indicated for reattachment of soft tissue to bone, specifically for deltoid repairs, rotator cuff tear repairs, and biceps tenodesis.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.

### D. Predicate Devices

The Smith & Nephew KINSA RC Anchor is substantially equivalent in Intended Use and Fundamental Scientific Technology to the following legally marketed device in commercial distribution: The Smith & Nephew KINSA Suture Anchor (K061154).

{1}------------------------------------------------

#### Description of Device isi

The KINSA RC Anchor is a suture anchor manufactured from PEEK polymer. The design incorporates a suture knot within the anchor body and a suture loop with a tension suture extending from the top of the anchor. This design allows the surgeon to implant the anchor, pass the suture loop through the tissue and using the tensioning suture, complete the repair without the need for knot tying.

#### Intended Use F.

The Smith & Nephew KINSA RC Suture Anchor is intended for use for the reattachment of soft tissue to bone for the following indications:

Deltoid Repairs Rotator Cuff Tear repairs Biceps tenodesis

## G. Comparison of Technological Characteristics

The Smith & Nephew KINSA RC Suture Anchor is substantially equivalent in design, materials, function and intended use to the Smith & Nephew KINSA suture anchor, cleared in K061154. The proposed and the predicate devices both have the same intended use, indications for use, anchor material, suture material, knotless design.

### H. Summary Performance Data

The performance testing conducted demonstrates substantial equivalence to the Smith & Nephew KINSA Suture Anchor, cleared in K061154 . The testing also demonstrates that the differences in the new device and the predicate device do not raise any new issues of safety and efficacy.

Dear Ms. Boushell:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such 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.
