Intended Use
The Lateral Button™ is intended to protect the suture/bone during transosseous fixation procedures.
Device Description
The Lateral Button™ consists of an implanted Button preloaded on a disposable inserter necessary for its insertion into the bone tunnel, the inserter is removed upon completion of the procedure. The implant is made of implantable grade PEEK (polyether - etherketone). The inserter is made of Polycarbonate. The Lateral Button and its inserter will be supplied sterile for single use. The implant has an O.D. of 3.1 mm, overall length of 10 mm and an I.D. of 1.8 mm. In use, the suture is threaded through the implant, which helps to distribute the pressure created by the suture and assists in the prevention of suture migration and damage to suture and/or bone. The implant will be supplied either as a stand alone device or as part of a kit i.e. with other devices already cleared for transosseous fixation procedures.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical properties and substantial equivalence to a predicate device, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.

No.
The device's intended use is to protect the suture/bone during transosseous fixation procedures, which is a supportive role in a surgical procedure, not to treat, mitigate, or prevent disease or affect the structure or function of the body in a therapeutic way.

No
The device, Lateral Button™, is described as an implantable mechanical device used to protect suture/bone during transosseous fixation procedures. Its intended use is to assist in distributing pressure and preventing suture migration and damage, not to diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is an implanted Button made of PEEK and a disposable inserter, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "protect the suture/bone during transosseous fixation procedures." This is a surgical implant used directly on the patient's bone during a procedure.
  • Device Description: The device is an "implanted Button" made of PEEK, designed to be inserted into a bone tunnel. This is a physical implant.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not interact with or analyze such specimens.

The Lateral Button™ is a surgical implant, not an IVD.

Summary of Performance Studies

With respect to technology, the performance is the same as verified by design verification. This consisted of static and dynamic testing in which the results demonstrated substantial equivalence to the predicate device. The material used PEEK (polyether - etherketone) is a standard material used in surgical implant applications. Based upon this, T.A.G. Medical Products Corporation, Ltd. believes that its device is safe and effective because it performs and functions in the same manner.

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Hattub:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.
