Used in arthroscopic and orthopedic reconstructive surgeries to secure soft tissue to bone. Operated by surgeons in clinical settings (OR). Anchors are implanted into bone to provide mechanical fixation for reattaching soft tissue. Benefits include restoration of anatomical integrity following injury or degenerative disease. Supplied sterile, single-use, ready-for-surgery. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Performance evaluated per FDA Draft Guidance for Testing Bone Anchor Devices, including insertion, pull-out, and fatigue testing. Biocompatibility testing performed per ISO 10993-1, -5, and -7. Sterilization validated per ISO 11135-1 and ISO 11137. No clinical data presented. ## Technological Characteristics Materials: PEEK (anchors), UHMWPE (sutures). Principle: Mechanical screw-in fixation. Dimensions: 3.0mm, 5.0mm diameters; 10mm, 17mm lengths. Sterilization: Ethylene oxide (anchors/inserters), gamma radiation (taps/drill bits). Standards: USP 41-NF36 (sutures), ISO 10993 (biocompatibility), ISO 11135/11137 (sterilization), ANSI/AAMI ST72 (endotoxins). ## 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 - Rog Suture Anchor ([K113299](/device/K113299.md)) - Arthrex 3.0mm SutureTak ([K061863](/device/K061863.md)) - Rog Suture Anchor 5.5mm, 2.9mm ([K110229](/device/K110229.md)) - Rog Knotless Suture Anchor ([K110230](/device/K110230.md)) - Rog Suture Anchor, Rog Knotless Suture Anchor ([K111590](/device/K111590.md)) - Modified Rog Suture Anchor ([K112991](/device/K112991.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

(JDR, MAI, MBI) | MBI | MBI | MBI | MBI | | Material | PEEK | PEEK | PEEK | PEEK | PEEK | PEEK | PEEK | | Sizes | 3.0mm, 5.0mm | 5.5mm, 2.9mm | 3.0mm | 5.5mm, 2.9mm | 5.5mm | 5.5mm, 2.9mm | 5.5mm, 2.9mm | {10}------------------------------------------------ ## Comparison of Technological Characteristics Soft tissue reattachment aid using PEEK anchors and non-absorbable suture is the technological principle for both the subject and predicate devices. It is based on the use of one or more PEEK anchors with non-absorbable sutures. At a high level, the subject and predicate devices have the same indication for use and are made from the same materials. The suture is from the same supplier as the primary predicate. Anchors are both made from PEEK. Additionally, both the subject and predicate devices are provided sterile. There are several technological differences between the subject and predicate devices. The primary predicate device offers a 2.9mm and 5.5mm diameter anchor while Flower Orthopedics Suture Anchor Set offers a 3.0mm and 5.0mm diameter anchor. Thus, the proposed diameters for the Flower Orthopedics Suture Anchor Set is within the range of the predicate devices. Although there are minor differences in dimensions and design, testing of the subject device establishes equivalent mechanical strength of the subject device as compared to the predicate device. The primary predicate device offers a single strand of USP size 2 suture with their 2.9mm anchor while the FlowerAnchor 3.0mm offers two strands of USP size 0 sutures. The sutures have been previously cleared. ## Performance Data The Flower Suture Anchor Set was tested (worse case) in accordance with FDA's Draft Guidance Document for Testing Bone Anchor Devices. Testing consisted of Insertion, Pull out, and Fatigue in comparison to the predicate devices. The subject device was found to be equivalent to the predicate devices in such performance. Cytotoxicity testing was also separately performed on both the patientcontacting and non-patient-contacting components Additionally, the Flower Suture Anchor Set was evaluated according to the following standards: - USP 41-NF36:2018 <861>, Sutures Diameter . - USP 41-NF36:2018 <871>, Sutures Needle Attachment ● - USP 41-NF36:2018 <881>, Tensile Strength . - ISO 10993-1, Biological evaluation of medical devices Part 1: Evaluation and . testing within a risk management process; - ISO 10993-5, Biological evaluation of medical devices Part 5: Tests for in vitro . cytotoxicity: - ISO 10993-7, Ethylene oxide sterilization residuals . - ISO 11135-1, Ethylene Oxide Sterilization . - ISO 11137, Radiation Sterilization ● - ANSI/AAMI ST72:2011/ (R)2016, Bacterial Endotoxins Test Methods, Routine ● Monitoring, And Alternatives To Batch Testing In all instances, the Flower Suture Anchor Set functioned and test results demonstrated substantial equivalence with the cited predicate devices. {11}------------------------------------------------ ## Conclusions The Flower Suture Anchor Set is as safe and effective as the identified predicate devices. The subject device has the same intended uses and similar indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as its predicate device. The minor differences in the device configuration being packaged with additional sutures and inserters raise no new issues of safety or effectiveness Performance data demonstrate that the subject devices are as safe and effective as the predicate devices. Thus, the Flower Suture Anchor Set is substantially equivalent. --- **Source:** [https://fda.innolitics.com/submissions/OR/subpart-d%E2%80%94prosthetic-devices/MBI/K192949](https://fda.innolitics.com/submissions/OR/subpart-d%E2%80%94prosthetic-devices/MBI/K192949) **Published by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com)** — a medical-device software consultancy.
