Device functions as a mechanical anchor to secure sutures to bone during soft tissue repair procedures. Surgeon inserts anchor into pre-drilled bone site; anchor provides fixation for sutures used to reattach tendons or ligaments. Benefits include stable soft tissue-to-bone fixation, facilitating healing in shoulder, knee, foot/ankle, hand/wrist, and elbow surgeries. Output is the physical fixation of the suture to the bone, which the surgeon uses to complete the repair. No software or electronic components involved. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence is based on technological characteristics and design similarities to predicate devices. ## Technological Characteristics Suture anchor for bone fixation. Metallic fastener. Dimensions: 2.5mm. Intended for use with Opti-Fiber™ suture. Mechanical fixation principle. No software, electronics, or energy source. ## 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 - WedgeLoc™ 180x Suture Anchor with Opti-Fiber™ Suture ([K091202](/device/K091202.md)) - Arthrex PushLock™ 2.5mm Suture Anchor ([K063479](/device/K063479.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
