The Stryker BioZip Suture Anchor is intended for single-use only. ## Device Story Bioabsorbable screw-in suture anchor; PLLA material; pre-threaded with two non-absorbable USP braided polyester sutures; preloaded on disposable inserter. Used in orthopedic reconstructive surgery to secure soft tissue to bone. Surgeon inserts device by rotating inserter to screw anchor into bone; suture ends then used to secure tissue. Provides mechanical fixation during healing; anchor eventually absorbs. Used in OR setting by orthopedic surgeons. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Biocompatibility per ISO-10993 and G95-1. Sterility validated to SAL 10^-6 per EN550. ## Technological Characteristics Material: Poly L-lactic acid (PLLA). Suture: Non-absorbable USP braided polyester. Design: Screw-in anchor with eyelets and hex-shaped cannulated core. Sterilization: Ethylene Oxide (EN550). Packaging: ASTM 4169. Single-use. ## Regulatory 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. ## Predicate Devices - Arthrex 5.0 mm Bio-Corkscrew Suture Anchor ([K990987](/device/K990987.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

(Naples, FL). ### Summary This summary of 510(k) safety and effectiveness is being submitted in accordance with requirements of SMDA 1990. The Stryker BioZip Suture Anchor is intended for use in reconstructive surgery to secure soft tissue to bone using suture. The suture anchor fixation technique is a common method in orthopedic surgery, and has been well published in professional journals such as Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic and Related Surgery. The Stryker BioZip Suture Anchor consists of a Poly L-lactic acid (PLLA) screw-in type suture anchor pre-threaded with two non-absorbable USP braided polyester sutures (one white and one green, needles attached) preloaded on a disposable inserter. The anchor is a bio-absorbable screw with eyelets to receive the sutures and a hex shaped cannulation down its center to accept the inserter's hex shaped tip mates with the anchors hex shaped cannulated core. By rotating the inserter the anchor is screwed into the bone. Once in place the ends of the suture are used to secure soft tissue to the bone. The Stryker BioZip Suture Anchor will be provided sterile for single-use (ASTM 4169). The device will be sterilized by Ethylene Oxide (EN550) including limits for Ethylene Oxide residuals and validated to a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10th. The device is biocompatible per ISO-10993 and G95-1. The Stryker BioZip Suture Anchor is equivalent in intended use, safety, and efficacy to the predicate device. The subject device was shown to have substantially equivalent performance when compared to the predicate device. The Stryker BioZip Suture Anchor is considered substantially equivalent to the Arthrex Bio-Corkscrew Suture Anchor.
