Device Description
Subject of this Traditional 510(k) premarket notification is an addition to the indications for use for the Smith & Nephew, Inc. BIORAPTOR® 2.9, BIORAPTOR® 2.3 PK, OSTEORAPTOR®, and BIORAPTOR Knotless Suture Anchors. These suture anchors were cleared via premarket notifications K053344, K071586, K082215, and K093428, respectively, and have identical indications for use. Smith & Nephew, Inc. seeks to expand the existing indications for use for the subject devices to include acetabular labrum reconstruction.
More Information

No
The document describes suture anchors and their intended uses, focusing on mechanical properties and expanding existing indications. There is no mention of AI or ML technology.

Yes: The device, Suture Anchors, is used for the reattachment of soft tissue to bone, which is a therapeutic intervention for various injuries and conditions across multiple anatomical sites.

No

The device description and intended use clearly state that these are suture anchors used for the reattachment of soft tissue to bone and reconstruction in various anatomical sites. This indicates a therapeutic or reconstructive purpose, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states that the subject of the 510(k) is an addition to the indications for use for existing suture anchors, which are physical medical devices. The submission is for expanding the use of hardware, not introducing a new software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the reattachment of soft tissue to bone for various anatomical sites and surgical procedures. This is a surgical device used in vivo (within the body) during a procedure.
  • Device Description: The device is described as "Suture Anchors," which are implants used to secure sutures to bone. This is consistent with a surgical implant, not a device used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information
    • Using reagents or assays

Therefore, the Smith & Nephew Suture Anchors are surgical devices, not In Vitro Diagnostic 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.

Knee

Extra-capsular repairs (Medial collateral ligament, Lateral ligament, Posterior oblique ligament), Patellar realignment and tendon repairs (Vastus medialis obliquous advancement), Iliotibial band tenodesis

Substantial Equivalence Information

The substantial equivalence of the BIORAPTOR® 2.9, BIORAPTOR® 2.3 PK, OSTEORAPTOR®, and BIORAPTOR Knotless Suture Anchors is based on similarities in indications for use, design features, operational principles, and material composition to the predicate devices listed in the table below. As there have been no significant changes to the design of the subject suture anchors, and the expansion of indications for use to include labral reconstruction introduces no additional risk, Smith & Nephew is relying on the mechanical testing (insertion strength, pull-out strength, and suture sliding) provided for the predicate devices as a measure of substantial equivalence.

Dear Mr. Connor:

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
