Physician uses sheath inserter to place expansion sheath into bone tunnel; expansion screw is then driven into sheath, expanding it to compress graft against tunnel wall, achieving fixation. Used in orthopedic surgery for cruciate ligament reconstruction. Provides mechanical fixation of soft tissue grafts to bone. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Performance verified via torque capability and pullout strength testing comparing the subject device to the predicate. ## Technological Characteristics Material: PEEK (polyetheretherketone) thermoplastic. Design: Tapered screw and expansion sheath system. Properties: Non-absorbable, radiolucent, high strength. Principle: Mechanical expansion for graft fixation. No software or electronic components. ## 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 - INTRAFIX® Tapered Screws ([K983560](/device/K983560.md)) - Femoral INTRAFIX® Screw and Sheath ([K063577](/device/K063577.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

INTRAFIX® PEEK Tapered Screw PRODUCT: SUBMISSION DATE: July 17, 2012 SUBMISSION TYPE: TRADITIONAL # ATTACHMENT 1 510(k) SUMMARY - INTRAFIX TAPERED SCREW ## DEVICE DESCRIPTION The proposed INTRAFIX System consists of two components, a non-absorbable INTRAFIX Expansion Sheath and a non-absorbable INTRAFIX Expansion Screw. Also included within the system is the instrumentation to place devices and establish the tunnel. The device functions by establishing the tunnel and placing the expansion Sheath into the tunnel by the use of Sheath Inserter. This is followed by screwing an Expansion Screw into the Sheath expanding the Sheath which compresses the graft against the tunnel and creating fixation. ## INDICATIONS FOR USE The DePuy Mitek Tibial Tapered Screw and Tibial Sheath are indicated for fixation of soft tissue grafts during cruciate ligament reconstruction. ## TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERSTICS The proposed INTRAFIX PEEK Tapered Screws are similar in design and indication to the predicate INTRAFIX Tapered Screws. The proposed INTRAFIX PEEK Tapered Screws are manufactured out of PEEK (polyetheretherketone), a non-absorbable radiolucent high strength thermoplastic material. The proposed PEEK material is a well-known material with a long and safe use in medical devices. A similar PEEK material is used in manufacturing the screw component of the predicate Femoral INTRAFIX Screw and Sheath (K063577). ## NONCLINICAL TESTING Verification activities, such as, Torque Capability and Pullout Strength testing were performed on the implant and its predicate device. # SAFETY AND PERFORMANCE Results of performance and safety testing have demonstrated that the modified device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. Based on the indications for use, technological characteristics, and comparison to predicate devices, the proposed INTRAFIX PEEK Tapered Screws have been shown to be substantially equivalent to predicate devices under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. {2}------------------------------------------------ # DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the Department of Health & Human Services USA.
