## Device Story

Non-absorbable suture anchor with attached non-absorbable sutures; preassembled to stainless steel insertion device. Used by surgeons in clinical/OR settings for soft tissue-to-bone reattachment. Ribbed/threaded design provides mechanical fixation. Single-use, sterile device. Benefits patient by securing soft tissue during orthopedic repairs, facilitating healing.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance testing demonstrated that insertion and fixation properties are substantially equivalent to predicate devices.

## Technological Characteristics

Non-absorbable suture anchor; stainless steel insertion device; ribbed/threaded design for bone fixation; 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

- Smith & Nephew BIORAPTOR 2.3 PK Suture Anchor ([K071586](/device/K071586.md))
- Arthrex Mini BioSuture Tak ([K050749](/device/K050749.md)/[K061863](/device/K061863.md))

#### E. Description of Device

The 2.0 PK Suture Anchor T and the 2.0 PK Suture Anchor S consist of a non-absorbable suture anchor with attached non-absorbable suture(s) preassembled to a stainless steel insertion device, and is provided sterile, for single use only. Both anchor models achieve fixation via ribbed/threaded design characteristics that are consistent with the repair of soft tissue to bone.

#### F. Intended Use

The 2.0 PK Suture Anchor T and 2.0 PK Suture Anchor S is intended for use for the reattachment of soft tissue to bone for the following indications:

Shoulder: Capsular stabilization- Bankart repair, Anterior shoulder instability, Slap lesion repair, Capsular shift or capsulolabral reconstruction, Acromilavicular separation repairs, Deltoid repairs, Rotator cuff tear repairs and Biceps tenodesis.

Foot/Ankle: Hallux valgus repairs, Medial or lateral instability repairs/reconstruction. Achilles tendon repairs/reconstruction, Mid-foot reconstruction, Metatarsal ligament/tendon repairs/recontructions and Bunionectomy.

Elbow, Wrist, and Hand: Biceps tendon reattachment, Ulnar or radial collateral ligament reconstructions, Lateral epicondylitis repair, and Scapholunate ligament reconstruction,

Knee: Extra-capular repairs -Medial collateral ligament, Lateral ligament, Posterior oblique ligament, Patellar realignment and tendon repairs - Vastus medialis obliquous advancement and Illoiotibial band tenodesis.

#### G. Comparison of Technological Characteristics

The performance testing conducted demonstrates substantial equivalence to the Arthrex Mini BioSuture Tak™suture anchor, cleared in K050749/K061863. The testing also demonstrates that the differences in the new device and the predicate device do not raise any new issues of safety and efficacy

#### H. Summary Performance Data

The performance testing conducted demonstrates that the insertion and fixation properties of the 2,0 PK Suture Anchor T and the 2.0 PK Suture Anchor S are substantially equivalent to the Smith & Nephew 2.3 BIORAPTOR and the Arthrex Mini BioSuture TakTM anchors.
