Benefits include stable fixation of soft tissue to bone to facilitate healing.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only.

Technological Characteristics

Screw-based bone anchor; material: titanium 6AL 4V ELI per ASTM F 136; non-sterile, provided for steam sterilization (SAL 10^-6).

Indications for Use

Indicated for anchoring soft tissue to bone in rotator cuff repairs of the shoulder and soft tissue repair of the foot and ankle.

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.

This device is identical in indication to the Mitek GII and SuperAnchor (K953877), the Zimmer Statak (K926384), and the Linvatec Revo (K941691). This device is most similar in design to the Zimmer Statak and the Linvatec Revo devices in that all three are based on screw designs and are manufactured from titanium alloys. Literature on Mitek and Linvatec and substantial equivalence information are included in Appendix E.

This summary regarding 510(k) safety and effectiveness information is being submitted in accordance with the requirements of SMDA 1990 and 21 CFR 807.93.

The Acumed Suture Anchor is a single use implantable device used with non-absorbable, non-coated white or green #2 or #0 braided polyester suture to anchor soft tissue to bone in rotator cuff repairs and soft tissue repairs of the foot and ankle. The suture anchor is manufactured from titanium 6AL 4V ELI per ASTM F 136 and is provided non-sterile. Acumed has identified a set of process parameters for steam sterilization which provide an SAL of 10-6 as validated by data on file at Acumed. Information regarding labeling has been provided.

Predicate devices that are substantially equivalent to the Acumed Suture Anchor are the Mitek GII Anchor and SuperAnchor, the Linvatec Revo, and the Zimmer Statak. All the devices mentioned above have the same indications and are manufactured from titanium. The design of the Acumed Suture Anchor is screw based and is similar to the Linvatec Revo and the Zimmer Statak. The Acumed Suture Anchor and the Mitek GII Anchor and SuperAnchor have similar surgical techniques. Based on the similarities between the Acumed Suture Anchor and the predicate devices studied, the safety and effectiveness of the Acumed Suture Anchor is expected to be similar to the predicate devices mentioned above.
