Intended Use

The Infinity-Lock™ Button System is intended to provide fixation during the healing process following a syndesmotic trauma, such as fixation of acromioclavicular separations due to coracoclavicular ligament disruption and as an adjunct in external and intramedullary fixation systems involving plates.

Device Story

Infinity-Lock™ Button System provides bone fixation during healing of syndesmotic trauma; specifically acromioclavicular separations. System components include 240 mm Tube-Tape, titanium alloy button, disposable cannulated drill bit, and guidewire. Requires use of coracoid passer (e.g., Xiros CCHook). Device functions via mechanical reduction of clavicle to required position; similar to predicate suture-button fixation systems. Used by surgeons in clinical/OR settings. Output is physical stabilization of bone segments. Benefits include secure fixation during ligament healing process.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Comparison against AC TightRope™ Repair Kit Titanium (K052776) for ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and fatigue performance (UTS and extension after fatiguing) showed no statistically significant differences. Pyrogenicity testing (LAL Gel Clot method) passed with <20 EU/device.

Technological Characteristics

Implantable system consisting of 240 mm polymeric Tube-Tape and titanium alloy button. Includes disposable cannulated drill bit and guidewire. Mechanical fixation principle. No software or electronic components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients with acromioclavicular separations resulting from disruption to the coracoclavicular ligaments.

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.

PREDICATE DEVICE AC TightRope™ Repair Kit Titanium (AR-2257) manufactured by Arthrex Inc, K052776. This predicate has not been subject to a design related recall. Reference device 1. for fixation at the clavicle for essentially the same indications for use; Lockdown™ Acromioclavicular (AC) device, manufactured by Surgicraft (Trading name of Mandaco 569 Limited), K091207. Reference device 2. for materials in Tube-Tape within the very general scope of the reference device intended use for soft tissue approximation: Infinity-Lock 3, Infinity-Lock 5, manufactured by Xiros Limited, K171680. Reference device 3. for materials in Button for different intended purpose: SECURE-LOOP, manufactured by Xiros Limited, K151601. # IV. DEVICE DESCRIPTION The Infinity-Lock™ Button System comprises a permanent implantable 240 mm Tube-Tape and titanium alloy Button together with a disposable cannulated drill bit and guidewire. A coracoid passer, such as the Xiros CCHook, is also required. ## V. INDICATIONS FOR USE The Infinity-Lock™ Button System is intended to provide fixation during the healing process following a syndesmotic trauma, such as fixation of acromioclavicular separations due to coracoclavicular ligament disruption and as an adjunct in external and intramedullary fixation systems involving plates. The Infinity-Lock™ Button System is indicated for patients with acromioclavicular separations resulting from disruption to the coracoclavicular ligaments. # VI. COMPARISIONS OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE The Infinity-Lock™ Button System has the same technological characteristics as the predicate device, with respect to intended use (the subject device falls within the scope of the predicate device), labelling, anatomical site, similar basic design consisting of titanium buttons and polymeric sutures and a similar surgical technique using mechanical means to reduce the clavicle to the required position. {5}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/5/Picture/0 description: The image contains a gray rounded rectangle with the word "XIROS" in bold, gray letters inside. The rectangle has a small extension at the top, giving it a slightly stylized appearance. The background is plain and white. # VII. PERFORMANCE DATA The Infinity-Lock™ Button System when tested against the AC TightRope™ Repair Kit Titanium (K052776) for Ultimate tensile strength (UTS), UTS after fatiguing and extension affer fatiguing, was not statistically significantly different and determined to be substantially equivalent. Pyrogenicity testing was carried out using LAL testing via the Gel Clot method and a pass result of <20 EU/device obtained. The testing demonstrated that the differences between the new device and the predicate device do not raise any new issues of safety and efficacy. The performance data benefit/risk analysis concluded that the differences encountered do not affect the safety and efficacy of the new device in relation to the predicate. Summary: Based on the pre-clinical testing performance, the Infinity-Lock™ Button System is found to have a safety and effectiveness profile that is similar to the predicate device. ## VIII. CONCLUSION Testing performed demonstrate that the Infinity-Lock™ Button System is substantially equivalent to the AC TightRope™ Repair Kit Titanium. Xiros therefore conclude the Infinity-Lock™ Button System is substantially equivalent to the AC TightRope™ Repair Kit Titanium manufactured by Arthrex Inc.
