Device Story
Biosure PK Interference Screw; bone fixation fastener used for soft tissue-to-bone reattachment. Device implanted by surgeons during orthopedic procedures (knee, shoulder, foot/ankle, elbow, wrist, hand). Provides mechanical fixation of ligaments/tendons to bone to facilitate healing. Performance relies on insertion and fixation properties equivalent to predicate screws. Used in clinical settings by orthopedic surgeons.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance testing demonstrated insertion and fixation properties equivalent to predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
Bone fixation fastener; metallic construction; smooth or threaded design. Classified under 21 CFR 888.3040.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring reattachment of ligament, tendon, soft tissue, or bone to bone during orthopedic reconstruction surgeries in the knee, shoulder, foot, ankle, elbow, wrist, and hand.
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.
