Device Story
Suture anchors for soft tissue-to-bone fixation; composed of PEEK; preloaded on driver with nonabsorbable suture. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/OR settings. Device functions by anchoring suture into bone to facilitate tissue repair/reconstruction. Output is physical fixation of soft tissue. Benefits include secure tissue attachment during orthopedic procedures. Mechanical testing confirms pull-out strength and torque to failure meet or exceed predicate performance.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Mechanical testing performed to evaluate pull-out strength and torque to failure compared to predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
Material: Polyetheretherketone (PEEK). Design: Threaded, cannulated, vented or non-vented, open or closed eyelet. Dimensions: 3.5mm diameter; 8.5mm and 13.5mm lengths. Delivery: Pre-mounted on driver. Sterilization: Sterile.
Indications for Use
Indicated for suture or soft tissue fixation to bone in shoulder, foot/ankle, knee, hand/wrist, elbow, and hip procedures. Specific procedures include rotator cuff repair, ligament reconstruction, tendon reattachment, and arthroplasty.
Regulatory Classification
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.

| Substantial<br>Equivalence Summary | The Arthrex DX SwiveLock SL with Forked Eyelet, 3.5 x 8.5mm and Arthrex DX<br>SwiveLock Suture Anchor, 3.5 x 13.5mm are substantially equivalent to the<br>predicate devices, in which the basic design features and intended uses are the<br>same. |
| | The predicate Arthrex MicroSuture Anchors (K112237) are composed of titanium<br>or PLDLA/BTCP and are provided pre-loaded on a driver with suture. The<br>predicate anchors range from 2.2 – 2.7mm in diameter and 4.0 - 7.0mm in length.<br>The predicate Arthrex SwiveLock Anchors (K101823) bodies are fully threaded,<br>fully cannulated and may be vented or non-vented. The SwiveLock Anchor eyelet<br>may feature an open or closed design. SwiveLock components, anchor bodies and<br>eyelets are manufactured from various materials and are sold in different<br>component/material combinations. The predicate devices are provided pre-<br>mounted on a driver with the anchor body and eyelet physically separated on a<br>driver shaft. FiberWire® Suture may also be packaged with the sterile Arthrex<br>SwiveLock Anchors. |
| | Similar to the predicate product offering, the devices subject of this 510(k)<br>premarket notification are featured in a 3.5mm diameter and lengths of 8.5 and<br>13.5mm, respectively. Identical to the predicate anchors, the Arthrex DX<br>SwiveLock SL with Forked Eyelet, 3.5 x 8.5mm and Arthrex DX SwiveLock Suture<br>Anchor, 3.5 x 13.5mm are manufactured from Polyethertherketone (PEEK), may<br>be provided vented or non-vented, and feature and open or closed eyelet design.<br>The Arthrex DX SwiveLock SL with Forked Eyelet, 3.5 x 8.5mm and Arthrex DX<br>SwiveLock Suture Anchor, 3.5 x 13.5mm are pre-mounted on a driver with the<br>anchor body and eyelet physically separated on a driver shaft. The product is<br>packaged sterile with FiberWire™ Suture. Any differences between the Arthrex<br>DX SwiveLock SL with Forked Eyelet, 3.5 x 8.5mm and Arthrex DX SwiveLock<br>Suture Anchor, 3.5 x 13.5mm and the predicates are considered minor and do not<br>raise questions concerning safety and effectiveness. |
| | The submitted mechanical testing data demonstrates that the pull-out strength<br>and torque to failure of the proposed devices meets or exceeds that of the<br>predicate devices for the desired indications. |
| | Based on the indications for use, technological characteristics, and the summary<br>of data submitted, Arthrex, Inc. has determined that the Arthrex DX SwiveLock SL |
