The description focuses on the physical components and mechanical function of a suture anchor system, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
Yes
The device is intended to reattach soft tissue to bone and stabilize damaged soft tissue, which directly treats an injury and promotes healing, thus serving a therapeutic purpose.
No
Explanation: The device is a suture anchor system used to reattach soft tissue to bone, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one. It stabilizes damaged soft tissue rather than identifying a medical condition.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components such as anchors made of copolymer and B-TCP, Hi-Fi® sutures, a disposable inserter with a stainless steel shaft and polycarbonate handle, and additional surgical instruments like drill bits, guides, and obturators. These are all hardware components, not software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "reattach[ing] soft tissue to bone in orthopedic surgical procedures." This is a surgical procedure performed on the patient's body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the patient's body.
- Device Description: The description details a physical implant (suture anchor) and instruments used for surgical implantation. This aligns with a surgical device, not a diagnostic test.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting markers, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's condition.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device's function is purely mechanical and surgical.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The GENESYS PressFT Suture Anchor is intended to reattach soft tissue to bone in orthopedic surgical procedures. The system may be used in either arthroscopic or open surgical procedures. After the suture is anchored to the bone, it may be used to reattach soft tissue, such as ligaments, tendons, or joint capsules to the bone. The suture anchor system thereby stabilizes the damaged soft tissue, in conjunction with appropriate postoperative immobilization, throughout the healing period. Additional indications include acetabular labral repair and capsular repair in the hip.

Device Description
The ConMed Linvatec GENESYS PressFT™ Suture Anchor is a device that is used to assist the surgeon in reattaching soft tissue to bone. The device includes anchors manufactured of 96L/4D copolymer + B-TCP and one (1) or two (2) Hi-Fi® sutures manufactured of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. The device is bioabsorbable and is available in two sizes: 1) a 2.5mm diameter x 9.8mm length suture anchor that is utilized with a 2.1mm drill bit, and 2) a 3.0mm diameter x 10.6mm length suture anchor that is utilized with a 2.6mm drill bit. A disposable inserter is included to implant the suture anchor.
The disposable inserter device has a stainless steel shaft with a polycarbonate handle that is provided sterile, for single use and is removed at the end of the repair leaving behind the suture anchor construct. After the suture is anchored to the bone, it may be used to reattach soft tissue, such as ligaments, tendons, or joint capsules to the bone. The suture anchor system thereby stabilizes the damaged soft tissue, in conjunction with appropriate postoperative immobilization, throughout the healing period. Additional surgical instruments, including drill bits, guides and obturators, are Class I, non-sterile, reusable devices intended for transient use during orthopedic procedures.

§ 888.3030 Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories.
(a)
Identification. Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
