Intended Use
The devices are intended for soft tissue to bone suture fixation for the following indications: Shoulder - Rotator cuff tear repairs - Biceps tenodesis Foot and Ankle - Lateral instability repairs/reconstructions Elbow, Wrist and Hand - Ulnar or radial collateral ligament reconstructions - Tennis elbow repair - Biceps tendon reattachment Knee - Extra-capsular repairs: - Medial collateral ligament - Lateral collateral ligament
Device Story
Tubular soft tissue anchor; preassembled with USP size 2-0 to 2 braided polyester suture. Introduction device delivers anchor into predrilled bone hole; sutures secure soft tissue to bone. Used by surgeons in clinical settings for orthopedic repairs. Facilitates fixation of ligaments and tendons to bone; enables tissue reattachment.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data; bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Tubular anchor; braided polyester suture (USP 2-0 to 2); metallic bone fixation fastener per 21 CFR 888.3040. Includes introduction device for delivery into predrilled bone holes.
Indications for Use
Indicated for soft tissue to bone suture fixation in shoulder (rotator cuff, biceps tenodesis), foot/ankle (lateral instability), elbow/wrist/hand (collateral ligament, tennis elbow, biceps tendon), and knee (medial/lateral collateral ligament) procedures.
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.
