The summary describes a mechanical suture anchor made of PEEK and preloaded with suture. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology related to AI or ML.
Yes
The device is described as a 'suture anchor' intended for the 'reattachment of soft tissue to bone' for various indications related to musculoskeletal repairs, which directly aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device designed to treat or alleviate a medical condition.
No.
The document describes a suture anchor used for reattaching soft tissue to bone, which is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly states the device is a suture anchor manufactured from PEEK and includes physical components like suture and a stainless steel inserter. This indicates it is a physical medical device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical device used for reattaching soft tissue to bone in various anatomical locations (Shoulder, Foot/Ankle, Knee, Elbow). This is a direct surgical intervention on the body.
- Device Description: The device is a suture anchor made of PEEK with preloaded suture. This is a physical implantable device used during surgery.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) during a surgical procedure.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The performance testing conducted demonstrates that the insertion and fixation properties of the Smith & Nephew TWINFIX Ultra PK suture anchor is substantially equivalent to the predicate TWINFIX FT PK suture anchor, cleared via K072875. The testing also demonstrates that the differences in the new device and the predicate device do not raise any new issues of safety and efficacy.

§ 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)

Dear Ms. Flores:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.
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.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set
