Operated by surgeons in clinical/OR settings. Provides mechanical anchor point in bone to secure sutures; facilitates tissue-to-bone reattachment. Benefits include stable fixation for ligament/tendon repairs. Offered with Orthocord suture options.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Assessments included pull-out testing, shelf-life, sterilization, and biocompatibility. No clinical data presented.

## Technological Characteristics

Material: PEEK. Form factor: 3.0mm threaded anchor. Delivery: Disposable inserter assembly. Suture compatibility: #2 suture (including Orthocord). Sterilization: Not specified. Connectivity: None (mechanical device).

## 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.

Device Description The Gryphon PEEK Anchors are non-absorbable threaded suture anchors manufactured of PEEK material. The barbed anchor comes preloaded on a disposable inserter assembly and is intended for fixation of #2 suture to bone. The Gryphon PEEK Anchor is provided as size 3.0mm. The Gryphon PEEK Anchors will be offered with partially absorbable Orthocord suture options, similar to the Gryphon P BR Anchor. Technologies characteristics including design and packaging are the same as the predicate cleared devices. Indications for Use The GRYPHON PEEK Anchor is intended for: Shoulder: Bankart Repair. SLAP Lesion Repair. Bicens Tenodesis, Acromio-Clavicular Separation Repair, Deltoid Repair, Capsular Shift or Capsulolabral Reconstruction: Foot/Ankle: Lateral Stabilization, Medial Stabilization, Knee: Medial Collateral Ligament Repair, Lateral Collateral Ligament Repair, Posterior Oblique Ligament Repair, Iliotibial Band Tenodesis; Elbow: Ulnar or Radial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction; Hip: Capsular Repair, Acetabular Labral Repair. Non clinical Testing Verification activities were performed on the implant or its predicates. Testing assessments include pull out testing. shelf-life, sterilization and biocompatibility. Safety and Performance Results of performance and safety testing have demonstrated that the modified device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. Gryphon PEEK Anchors are similar to: Gryphon P BR Anchor (K100012, K090124), Healix Peek Anchor (K071481) and TransTend Anchor (102298). Based on the indications for use, technological characteristics, and comparison to predicate devices, the Gryphon PEEK Anchors have been shown to be substantially equivalent to predicate devices under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act.
