Device Story
Single-use bone fixation anchor; manufactured from shape memory nickel-titanium alloy. Device introduced into bone in closed state; adopts opened position upon insertion to provide permanent fixation for ligament restoration. Used in orthopedic and urological procedures; operated by surgeons. Provides secure attachment point for sutures (USP 2-0 to 4-0) to facilitate tissue-to-bone repair. Benefits include secure ligament restoration and fixation for stress urinary incontinence.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Conformity to ASTM F2063-05 for material properties provided.
Technological Characteristics
Shape memory nickel-titanium alloy; conforms to ASTM F2063-05. Single-use, permanent implant. Dimensions: 1mm thickness, 3.8mm length. Mechanical fixation via shape memory expansion in bone. Supplied with polyester or Fiberwire sutures.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring ligament or bone fixation in the hand, ankle (midfoot), foot (hallux valgus), wrist (scapholunate ligament), or pubis (bladder neck suspension for stress urinary incontinence).
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.

Re: K071941 Trade/Device Name: Memometal Micro ARIM® anchor Regulation Number: 21 CFR 888.3040 Regulation Name: Smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener Regulatory Class: Class II Product Code: HWC, JDR, MBI Dated: November 15, 2007 Received: November 16, 2007
Dear Mr. Audic:
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. 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such 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 requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
