More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and mechanical performance of a polymer staple, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The RMB Staple is used for fixation of soft tissue grafts during rotator cuff repair, which is a therapeutic intervention aimed at repairing damaged tissue.

No
Explanation: The device description and intended use clearly state that the RMB Staple is used for fixation of soft tissue grafts during rotator cuff repair, indicating a therapeutic or surgical function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "sterile, single use polymer strap with cleat tips" made of PEEK material, which are physical components, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "fixation of soft tissue grafts during rotator cuff repair." This is a surgical procedure performed on the body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device is a "polymer strap with cleat tips" used with a "manual staple driver." This is a physical implant and surgical tool, not a reagent, instrument, or system used to examine specimens from the human body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening

The RMB Staple is a surgical implant used to physically secure tissue during a surgical procedure. This falls under the category of a surgical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

RMB Staple has been evaluated in a number of in vitro and in vivo tests to assess its safety/biocompatibility and substantial equivalence to the predicates, including: cytotoxicity, sensitization, intracutaneous reactivity, toxicity, and animal testing with histology. In addition, in vivo and in vitro strength and retention were also assessed.
The device passed all applicable FDA Blue Book Memorandum G95-1 and ISO 10993-1 testing for the biological evaluation of medical devices. The results of the in vitro product characterization studies, bench testing and in vitro and in vivo biocompatibility studies, as well as the animal efficacy study demonstrate that the RMB Staple is safe and substantially equivalent to the 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.

intended Use

The RMB Staple is indicated for fixation of soft tissue grafts during rotator cuff repair.

Summary/Comparison of Technical Characteristics

The RMB Staple and the predicate device, Ethicon Securestrap™, have similar indications for use and physical design. Both devices are indicated for the fixation of prosthetic material, and are comprised of a polymer strap with barbed ends. The Securestrap™ is optimized for soft tissue fixation, while the RMB Staple is optimized for fixation to bone. The RMB Staple and the predicate device, SwiveLock Anchor, are made of the same material, PEEK, and are used similarly to aid in the management of tendon injuries by affixing a prosthetic material to bone. The RMB Staple directly affixes the prosthetic material to bone, while the predicate SwiveLock indirectly affixes the prosthetic material by proving an anchor point for sutures which have been sewn to/through the prosthetic material.

RMB Staple has been evaluated in a number of in vitro and in vivo tests to assess its safety/biocompatibility and substantial equivalence to the predicates, including: cytotoxicity, sensitization, intracutaneous reactivity, toxicity, and animal testing with histology. In addition, in vivo and in vitro strength and retention were also assessed.

Conclusion

The device passed all applicable FDA Blue Book Memorandum G95-1 and ISO 10993-1 testing for the biological evaluation of medical devices. The results of the in vitro product characterization studies, bench testing and in vitro and in vivo biocompatibility studies, as well as the animal efficacy study demonstrate that the RMB Staple is safe and substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
