This device is intended for use in the following applications: Shoulder: Rotator cuff, Bankart, and SLAP lesion repair, Biceps tenodesis, Acromio-Clavicular separation and Deltoid repair, Capsular shift and Capsulolabral reconstruction Foot/Ankle: Lateral and Medial stabilization, Achilles tendon and Metatarsal ligament repair, Hallux Valgus and Midfoot reconstruction Knee: Medial collateral and Lateral collateral ligament repair, Patellar tendon and Posterior oblique ligament repair, Iliotibial band tenodesis Hand/Wrist: Scapholunate ligament, Radial collateral ligament and Ulnar collateral ligament reconstruction Elbow: Biceps tendon reattachment, Tennis elbow repair, Ulnar and Radial collateral ligament reconstruction Pelvis: Bladder neck suspension for urinary incontinence due to urethral hypermobility or intrinsic sphincter deficiency in females ## Device Story Bio-absorbable bone anchor system; 3.0 mm diameter corkscrew thread design; pre-threaded with various suture materials (polypropylene, nylon, polyester, polyethylene). Used in open or arthroscopic soft tissue-to-bone attachment procedures. System includes anchor, thread tap, and placement tool (driver). Operated by surgeons in clinical settings. Anchor provides mechanical fixation of suture to bone; facilitates soft tissue repair. Benefits include secure tissue reattachment and bio-absorbable material properties. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. In vitro studies conducted to evaluate anchor pull-out strength per FDA Guidance Document for Testing Bone Anchor Devices (April 20, 1996). Results demonstrate pull-out force and failure modes comparable to predicate devices. ## Technological Characteristics Bio-absorbable bone anchor; 3.0 mm diameter; corkscrew thread geometry. System includes manual surgical instruments (tap, driver). Sterile, single-patient-use. No software or electronic components. ## Regulatory Identification Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system. ## Predicate Devices - Axya Model 5000 AxyaLoop™ Bio-Absorbable Bone Anchor ([K041698](/device/K041698.md)) - Arthrex Inc.

Product code: MAI Class II | #### Predicate Devices Axya Model 5000 AxyaLoop™ Bio-Absorbable Bone Anchor [510(k) Number K041698] Arthrex Inc. BioFASTak™ Suture Anchor Model AR-1324B [501(k) Number K000506] #### Description The device is designed with a corkscrew style thread 3.0 mm in diameter, for use in a range of soft tissue to bone attachment procedures. The Axya Bone Anchor will be made available as a system together with a thread tap and a placement tool (driver). These accessories are the same types of instruments included in procedure sets for currently marketed bone anchor systems. Axya Medical believes that the accessory instruments are Class I Manual Surgical Instruments and are exempt from the premarket Notification regulations. The Axya Model 3000 Bio-Absorbable Bone Anchor is prethreaded with polypropylene monofilament, nylon, braided polyester, and braided polyethylene suture material. {1}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/1/Picture/0 description: The image shows handwritten text that appears to be a combination of letters and numbers. The text reads 'K051983' followed by '1 2/3'. The handwriting is somewhat stylized, with some characters slightly distorted or connected. The Model 3000 Bio-Absorbable Bone Anchor is designed for use in both standard open surgical procedures and in minimally invasive (arthroscopic) surgical procedures. ## Intended Use (Indications) The Axya Model 3000 AxyaLoop™ Bio-Absorbable Bone Anchor is indicated for securing suture to bone. This device is intended for use in the following applications: Shoulder: Rotator cuff, Bankart, and SLAP lesion repair, Biceps tenodesis, Acromio-Clavicular separation and Deltoid repair, Capsular shift and Capsulolabral reconstruction Foot/Ankle: Lateral and Medial stabilization, Achilles tendon and Metatarsal ligament repair, Hallux Valgus and Midfoot reconstruction Knee: Medial collateral and Lateral collateral ligament repair, Patellar tendon and Posterior oblique ligament repair, Iliotibial band tenodesis Hand/Wrist: Scapholunate ligament, Radial collateral ligament and Ulnar collateral ligament reconstruction Elbow: Biceps tendon reattachment, Tennis elbow repair, Ulnar and Radial collateral ligament reconstruction Pelvis: Bladder neck suspension for urinary incontinence due to urethral hypermobility or intrinsic sphincter deficiency in females ### Substantial Equivalence This submission supports the position that the Axya Model 3000 Bio-Absorbable Bone Anchor is substantially equivalent to a number of previously cleared devices, including the Axya Model 5000 AxyaLoop Bio-Absorbable Bone Anchor [510(k) Number K041698] and the Arthrex Inc. BioFASTak Model AR-1324B Suture Anchor. The 510(k) Notice contains summaries of in vitro studies that were conducted to evaluate the anchor pull-out strength as specified in the FDA Guidance Document for Testing Bone Anchor Devices (dated April 20, 1996). The data presented demonstrate that the anchor pull-out force of the Axya Model 3000 AxyaLoop Bio-Absorbable Bone Anchor compared favorably with the predicate device of similar corkscrew geometry. The failure mode observed for the Axya anchor was predominately the same as that of the predicate anchor. The single-patient-use components of the bone anchor system are provided sterile. The suture material and bone anchors are sterilized using a process equivalent to the process used by the original suture manufacturer. {2}------------------------------------------------ K051983 p³/₃ ### Conclusions Axya Medical, Inc. believes that the information provided establishes that similar legally Axya Mculoar, me. bonovoo that the me clinical applications as the Axya Model 3000 Biomanotod have boom and .
