Table 1.1: Device Comparison
This section contains a comparison of technological characteristics of the Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System and the predicate Bi-Portal Bone Graft Delivery Device and, where there are differences, provides an explanation of why there is no negative impact on substantial equivalence.
### Materials
Both the Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System and the predicate K142661 Bi-Portal Bone Graft Delivery Device are made of biocompatible plastic materials. All elements of the Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System are composed of polycarbonate with the sole exception of the cannula and plunger components, which contain biocompatible stainless steel in addition to polycarbonate. The polycarbonate and stainless steel materials which make up the Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System are identical to the polycarbonate and stainless steel materials which make up the Avitus Orthopaedics, Inc. Bone Harvester devices (K152474). Similarities in Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System and Avitus Bone Harvester device scale, manufacturing methods, and intended clinical use environment indicate that materials will not negatively impact the overall use and function of the new device. Biocompatibility has been demonstrated with the uti
{7}------------------------------------------------
lization of identical materials and processes to the materials found in the Avitus Orthopaedics. Inc. Bone Harvester devices, there is no negative impact on product safety or effectiveness.
## Mechanism of Operation
The predicate K142661 Bi-Portal Bone Graft Delivery Device deploys bone autograft or hydrated allograft when the user depresses the Threaded Delivery Plunger into the Cannula. The Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System deploys bone autograft or hydrated allograft using a two stage deployment process. First, user depresses the Threaded Delivery Plunger into the Graft Cartridge until the Plunger's back-end threads engage with the Graft Cartridge, moving bone graft material into the Cannula. Next, the user turns the Threaded Delivery Plunger to deploy the desired volume of bone graft material from the Cannula. Despite this additional feature, which provides the user with precise control over the deployed volume of bone graft, the Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System and the predicate K142661 Bi-Portal Bone Graft Delivery Device share basic mechanism of action. The addition of the threaded mechanism in the Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System does not negatively impact product safety or effectiveness.
## Recommended Graft Volume
The predicate K142661 Bi-Portal Bone Graft Delivery Device can accommodate up to 4.0 cc of hydrated allograft or autograft material in its syringe barrel. The Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System can accommodate approximately up to 0.5 cc of hydrated allograft or autograft material in each reloadable Graft Cartridge. If more graft is required at the delivery site, the user replaces the Graft Cartridge with another loaded Graft Cartridge. This is repeated as many times as needed by opening the lid of the Graft Cartridge and reloading it after bone delivery. The Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System and the predicate K142661 Bi-Portal Bone Graft Delivery Device are intended to deliver different volumes of graft. There is no negative impact of recommended graft volume on product safety or effectiveness because the Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System will be utilized by clinicians who want to deliver smaller, precise volumes of graft.
## Bone Graft Exit Hole Configuration
The predicate K142661 Bi-Portal Bone Graft Delivery Device deploys bone autograft or hydrated allograft through bilateral sideholes. Each sidehole measures 14.8 mm x 5.6 mm. The Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System deploys bone autograft through a single endhole in the case of the Straight Delivery Cannula and through a single sidehole in the case of the Angled Delivery Cannula. Both Straight and Angled Delivery Cannulas have an exit hole diameter of 3.4 mm. This difference, combined with the difference in recommended graft volume, indicates that the devices are designed to deliver different volumes of graft material, however, there is no difference between the proposed and predicate devices in terms of function and intended purpose. The Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System effectively delivers graft material. This has been demonstrated in performance testing. There is no negative impact of the difference in bone graft exit hole configuration on product safety or effectiveness.
#### 1.10 Non-Clinical Testing
Avitus Orthopaedics, Inc. performed worst-case non-clinical testing in which the Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System was used to deliver cadaveric bone graft material. Testing found that the Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System meets the reliability and confidence requirements for successful delivery and for structural integrity during normal use.
{8}------------------------------------------------
#### 1.11 Biocompatibility
The previously-cleared Avitus Bone Harvester and the Avitus Precision Autograft Delivery System are both external communicating devices with limited tissue/bone/dentin contact (<24 hours). Per ISO 10993-1:2018 and FDA Guidance Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, the following biocompatibility endpoints are appropriate for both devices:
- · Cytotoxicity
- · Sensitization
- · Irritation
- · Acute Systemic Toxicity
- · Material-Mediated Pyrogenicity
Per Attachment D of the aforementioned FDA guidance, the results of biocompatibility testing of the Avitus Bone Harvester may be applied to the subject device, considering that the material formulation, body contact, and sterilization of direct and indirect contacting components are identical and that the geometry and manufacturing processes (noting that no new plasticizers, fillers, additives, cleaning agents, mold release agents have been added to the subject device manufacturing process) of the Avitus Bone Harvester represent worst-case biocompatibility conditions.
#### Clinical Testing 1.12
No clinical testing was performed in association with this submission.
#### 1.13 Conclusions
The results of the comparison of design, materials, intended use and technological characteristics demonstrate that the device is as safe and effective as the legally marketed predicate devices.
