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.

Dear Rebecca Homan:
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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
{2}------------------------------------------------
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) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/CombinationProducts/GuidanceRegulatoryInformation/ucm597488.htm); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm.
For comprehensive regulatory information about mediation-emitting products, including information about labeling regulations, please see Device Advice (https://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/) and CDRH Learn (http://www.fda.gov/Training/CDRHLearn). Additionally, you may contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education (DICE) to ask a question about a specific regulatory topic. See the DICE website (http://www.fda.gov/DICE) for more information or contact DICE by email (DICE@fda.hhs.gov) or phone (1-800-638-2041 or 301-796-7100).

| | Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) material, which is identical to the predicate devices |
| | cleared under K063479 and K172612. |
| | Bacterial Endotoxins Test (BET) was performed on the Arthrex 2.5 mm Tenodesis<br>Screw utilizing the Kinetic Chromogenic Method in accordance with ANSI/AAMI<br>ST72:2011/(R)2016, USP <161>, USP <85>, EP 2.6.14. Testing was performed in<br>compliance with US FDA good manufacturing practice (GMP) regulations 21 CFR<br>Parts 210, 211 and 820. The testing conducted demonstrates that the Arthrex<br>2.5 mm Tenodesis Screw meets pyrogen limit specifications. |
| | Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Irritaion, Genotoxicity, Systemic Toxicity, |
| | Subchronic/Subacute Toxicity, Implantation and Material Characterization testing<br>was conducted on the Arthrex 2.5 mm Tenodesis Screw in accordance with ISO<br>10993-1:2018. |
| Conclusion | The Arthrex 2.5 mm Tenodesis Screw is substantially equivalent to the predicate<br>devices in which the basic design features and intended uses are the same. Any<br>differences between the proposed device and the predicate devices are |
| | considered minor and do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness. |
| | Based on the indications for use, technological characteristics, and the summary |
| | of data submitted, Arthrex Inc. has determined that the Arthrex 2.5 mm |
| | Tenodesis Screw is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed predicate<br>device. |
