Examples of such procedures include: Shoulder: Bankart Repair, SLAP lesion repair, acromio-clavicular separation, rotator cuff repair, capsule shift/capsule-labral reconstruction, biceps tenodesis and deltoid repair Ankle: Lateral instability, medial instability, Achilles tendon repair/reconstruction and midfoot reconstruction Foot: Hallux valgus reconstruction Elbow: Tennis elbow repair, biceps tendon attachment Knee: Extra-capsular repairs; reattachment of: medial collateral ligament, posterior oblique ligament or joint capsule closure to anterior proximal tibia; extra capsular reconstruction, ITB tenodesis; patellar ligament and tendon avulsions
Device Description
The Opus SpeedLock Knotless Fixation Device is a bone anchor with inserter handle designed for specific indications in arthroscopic and orthopedic procedures.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical bone anchor and inserter, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would suggest AI/ML.

Yes
The device is described as a fixation device used in procedures to repair soft tissue to bone (e.g., Bankart Repair, rotator cuff repair, Achilles tendon repair). These are medical interventions intended to treat or manage a disease, injury, or medical condition.

No
The device is described as a "knotless fixation device" and a "bone anchor with inserter handle designed for specific indications in arthroscopic and orthopedic procedures," which are surgical tools used for fixation, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "bone anchor with inserter handle," which are physical hardware components, not software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states the Opus SpeedLock Knotless Fixation Device is a "bone anchor with inserter handle" used for "fixation of soft tissue to bone" in various surgical procedures. This is a surgical implant/device used directly on the patient's body during a procedure, not for testing samples outside the body.

The information provided aligns with a surgical device used for orthopedic and arthroscopic procedures, not an IVD.

§ 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)

510(K) SUMMARY

Substantial Equivalence

By definition, substantial equivalence means that a device has the same intended use and technical characteristics as the predicate device, or has the same intended use and different technological characteristics, but can be demonstrated to be as safe and effective as the predicate device. The Opus SpeedLock Knotless Fixation Device is substantially equivalent to the existing Opus LabraLock P Knotless Fixation Device cleared by the Food & Drug Administration (K061349, cleared July 14, 2006). The differences between the Opus SpeedLock and the predicate device do not raise any questions regarding the safety and effectiveness of the implant. Furthermore, the materials are well characterized and have been used in predicate devices with similar indications. The device, as designed, is as safe and effective as predicate devices.

Summary and Reason for 510k Notification

The purpose of this 510k is to notify the Food and Drug Administration of a new product, the Opus SpeedLock Knotless Fixation Device. This new product is substantially equivalent to the Opus LabraLock P Knotless Fixation Device originally cleared under K061349 (July 14, 2006).
