Intended Use
Indications for the Composite Hitch™ Suture Anchor include use in soft tissue reattachment procedures in the shoulder, wrist/hand, elbow, and knee. Specific indications are as follows: Shoulder: Bankart repair, SLAP lesion repair, acromioclavicular separation repair, rotator cuff repair, capsule repair or capsulolabral reconstruction, biceps tenodesis, deltoid repair. Wrist/Hand: Scapholunate ligament reconstruction Elbow: Tennis elbow repair, Biceps tendon reconstruction, medial and lateral repairs, ulnar or radial collateral ligament reconstruction. Knee: Extracapsular repair: Medial collateral ligament repair, lateral ligament repair, posterior oblique ligament repair, joint capsule closure, iliotibial band tenodesis, patellar ligament/tendon repair, vastus medialis obliquus (VMO) muscle advancement.
Device Description
The Composite Hitch™ Suture Anchor is made with a composite, resorbable material. The soft tissue anchor, preloaded with polyethylene surgical suture, enables the implantable anchor by screwing it in through a tapped pre-drilled hole or by simply pushing the point directly into the bone without pre-drilling a starter hole.
More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a physical suture anchor and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

Yes
The device is a suture anchor used for reattaching soft tissue, which is a therapeutic intervention aimed at restoring function and healing.

No
The device, the Composite Hitch™ Suture Anchor, is described as being used for soft tissue reattachment procedures and its function involves being screwed or pushed into bone, indicating it is a surgical implant rather than a device for diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "soft tissue anchor" made of "composite, resorbable material" and is "preloaded with polyethylene surgical suture," indicating it is a physical implantable device, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The Composite Hitch™ Suture Anchor is a physical implantable device used to reattach soft tissue to bone during surgical procedures. It is used in the body, not to test samples from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples, chemical reactions, or diagnostic information derived from bodily fluids or tissues.

The device is a surgical implant used for structural repair, which falls under a different category of medical devices than IVDs.

§ 888.3030 Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories.

(a)
Identification. Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.
