The system consists of titanium alloy implants—a Compression Anchor and a Locking Screw—and associated surgical instruments. During a posterior approach procedure, the surgeon positions the Compression Anchor to span the ilium and sacrum, compressing the joint; the Locking Screw is then inserted through the anchor. Bone graft material is placed within the implant to promote bone growth. The device is used in a clinical/OR setting by a surgeon. The system provides mechanical stabilization of the SI joint, which can alleviate pain and improve patient outcomes associated with joint instability or degeneration. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Performance testing included dynamic vertical shear testing (ASTM F3574), foam block pullout testing (ASTM F543), biocompatibility (ISO 10993), and sterilization validation. ## Technological Characteristics Materials: Titanium alloy. Components: Compression Anchor and Locking Screw. Principle: Mechanical bone fixation/transfixation. Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Sterile single-use or non-sterile. Standards: ASTM F3574, ASTM F543, ISO 10993. ## 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 - TiLink-P SI Joint Fusion System ([K230857](/device/K230857.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 available 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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download). {1}------------------------------------------------ Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality System (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, 21 CFR 820.30, Design controls; 21 CFR 820.90, Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action.
