No
The document describes a mechanical bone anchor system and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.
No
The device is a bone anchor system used for fixation of soft tissue to bone during surgical procedures, which is a structural repair rather than a therapeutic treatment process.
No
The device is described as a bone anchor system intended for fixation of soft tissue to bone during surgical procedures, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "bone anchor system with inserter handle," indicating it includes physical hardware components.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. These tests are performed outside of the body.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The provided information clearly describes a surgical implant (suture anchor) and its associated inserter. Its intended use is for the fixation of soft tissue to bone during surgical procedures performed inside the body.
The device is a surgical implant used for structural support within the body, not for analyzing biological samples.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Side by side comparison bench testing was performed on the proposed and predicate device per the US FDA Guidance Document for Testing Bone Anchors. The differences between the SpeedFix 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 proposed device, as designed, is as safe and effective as predicate devices.

§ 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.

510(K) SUMMARY
Indications For Use
The SpeedFix Suture Implant with inserter is indicated for use in fixation of soft tissue to bone. 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
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 SpeedFix Suture Implant design and technology is substantially equivalent to the existing SpeedFix Suture Implant [K101437]. Side by side comparison bench testing was performed on the proposed and predicate device per the US FDA Guidance Document for Testing Bone Anchors. The differences between the SpeedFix 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 proposed device, as designed, is as safe and effective as predicate devices.
Summary and Reason for 510k Notification
The purpose of this 510(k) is to notify the Food and Drug Administration of a proposed modification to an existing product. The proposed device, the SpeedFix Suture Implant is substantially equivalent to the SpeedFix Suture Implant originally cleared under K101437.
