The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical fixation and material properties, with no mention of AI/ML or data-driven analysis.
Yes.
The device is intended for use in the fixation of ligament and tendon grafts during anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction of the knee, which is a therapeutic procedure.
No
The device is a medical implant used for surgical reconstruction, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "three piece implant designed to provide soft tissue fixation for tibial anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction" and includes "instrumentation to prepare the bone tunnel and place the device as well as a sterilization tray." These are physical components, not software.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "fixation of ligament and tendon grafts during anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction of the knee." This describes a surgical procedure performed on the body, not a test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The device description details implants and instruments used for surgical fixation within the knee joint. This is consistent with a surgical device, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.
IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device is a surgical implant and associated instrumentation.

Device Description
The TriTis Tibial ACL Reconstruction System consists of a three piece implant designed to provide soft tissue fixation for tibial anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. The graft cleat secures the soft tissue graft in the tunnel. The washer and fixation screw secure the ends of the graft and cleat to the bone.
The System includes instrumentation to prepare the bone tunnel and place the device as well as a sterilization tray.
The modifications made to the device that are the subject of this submission are: Add a new, 12 mm diameter graft cleat implant size, and a new, 12 mm Dilator instrument. All other device features and instruments remain unchanged.

§ 888.3040 Smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener.
(a)
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.(b)
Classification. Class II.
