Indicated for soft tissue to bone fixation in shoulder, foot/ankle, knee, elbow, and hip procedures requiring post-operative immobilization. Applicable to patients undergoing orthopedic repairs such as rotator cuff, ligament, or tendon reconstruction.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.

Dear Ms. Korsunsky:
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. 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 of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820);

| Device<br>Description | The HEALIX ADVANCETM Anchor with DYNACORDTM Suture is a threaded<br>suture anchor preloaded on a disposable inserter assembly intended for fixation of<br>soft tissue to bone. HEALIX ADVANCETM Anchors with DYNACORDTM Suture<br>are available in absorbable BR and non-absorbable PEEK materials. Devices with<br>needles will be offered to facilitate suture passage through tissue. The HEALIX<br>ADVANCETM Anchor with DYNACORDTM Suture is provided sterile and is for<br>single use only. |
|----------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Technological<br>Characteristics | The proposed HEALIX ADVANCETM Anchor with DYNACORDTM Suture has the<br>same anchor materials, design, principle of operation, as well as device assembly,<br>sterilization method, and shelf life, as predicate HEALIX ADVANCETM Anchor<br>with PERMACORDTM Suture (K133794). The DYNACORDTM Suture component<br>is a non-absorbable suture that conforms to USP, except for oversized diameter. |
| Indications for<br>Use | The HEALIX ADVANCETM Anchor is indicated for use in soft tissue to bone<br>fixation in association with post-operative immobilization as follows: |
| | <b>Shoulder:</b> Rotator Cuff Repair, Bankart Repair, SLAP Lesion Repair, Biceps<br>Tenodesis, Acromio-Clavicular Separation Repair, Deltoid Repair,<br>Capsular Shift or Capsulolabral Reconstruction |
| | <b>Foot/Ankle:</b> Lateral Stabilization, Medial Stabilization, Achilles Tendon Repair<br><b>Knee:</b> Medial Collateral Ligament Repair, Lateral Collateral Ligament<br>Repair, Posterior Oblique Ligament Repair, Iliotibial Band<br>Tenodesis |
| | <b>Elbow:</b> Biceps Tendon Reattachment, Ulnar Collateral Ligament<br>Reconstruction , Radial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction<br><b>Hip:</b> Capsular Repair, Acetabular Labral Repair |
| Non clinical<br>Testing | Non-clinical testing has been performed on the proposed device and / or its<br>predicates. Performance testing included anchor fixation testing, <i>in-vitro</i> testing,<br>torque testing, suture testing per USP, suture approximation force testing, <i>in-vivo</i><br>testing. Safety evaluations were conducted to address biological, sterility,<br>packaging, shelf-life and included <i>in-vivo</i> testing. Bacterial endotoxin testing has<br>been completed and results have demonstrated that the proposed devices meet the<br>endotoxin limits. |
| Safety and<br>Performance | Results of performance testing have demonstrated that the proposed devices are<br>suitable for their intended use. Based on similarities in the indications for use,<br>technological characteristics, and performance in comparison to the predicate<br>devices, the proposed HEALIX ADVANCETM Anchor with DYNACORDTM Suture<br>has shown to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices under the Federal<br>Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. |
