Used by surgeons in clinical settings to fixate soft tissue to bone. Device functions via mechanical anchoring; shape-memory arcs deploy to secure anchor within bone. Provides stable fixation for tendon-to-bone attachment; facilitates surgical repair; aids patient recovery. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Performance data provided includes arc span test, insertion force, pull-out force, and suture/suture hole interface testing. ## Technological Characteristics Materials: Titanium alloy shaft, nickel-titanium shape-memory alloy arcs, polyester and PANACRYL (Poly L-Lactide/Glycolide) suture. Form factor: Pre-loaded bone anchor on disposable inserter. Sterilization: Sterile, 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 - Mitek Anchor ([K915889](/device/K915889.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
