Intended Use

The A.I.M.™ Suture Anchor is intended for use in arthroscopic, mini-open or open surgical procedures for fixation of soft tissue to bone.

The A.I.M. ™ Suture Anchor is intended for use in the following applications:

Ankle: Mid-foot Reconstruction
Foot: Hallux valgus reconstruction
Hand: Ulnar or lateral collateral ligament reconstruction
Wrist: Scapholunate ligament reconstruction

Device Description

The implant system includes a 1.7mm diameter PEEK (polyether-etherketone) anchor. pre-mounted on a disposable inserter. The anchor is preloaded with USP size 0 Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene suture. The device is designed to be inserted into a pre-formed hole using a single use disposable awl

AI/ML Overview

The provided text includes a 510(k) summary for the A.I.M.™ Suture Anchor, but it does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria. Instead, it focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices. The study mentioned specifically details "anchor pull-out forces are equivalent or superior to a referenced predicate device", but it does not specify acceptance criteria or the full details of this study to meet your requested information.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested table and study details. The document is primarily a regulatory submission for substantial equivalence.

Here's a breakdown of why I cannot fulfill your request based on the provided text:

  • Acceptance Criteria and Reported Performance: The document states, "Data have been provided in the submission that demonstrates that the anchor pull-out forces are equivalent or superior to a referenced predicate device." This indicates a performance metric (pull-out force) was evaluated and compared to a predicate, but neither specific numerical acceptance criteria nor the precise "reported device performance" values are provided.
  • Study Details (Sample size, data provenance, experts, adjudication, MRMC, standalone, ground truth, training set): The document mentions "anchor pull-out forces" were tested, but it does not offer any details about the study design, such as:
    • Sample size for test set
    • Data provenance (country, retrospective/prospective)
    • Number or qualifications of experts
    • Adjudication method
    • MRMC comparative effectiveness study or effect size
    • Standalone algorithm performance
    • Type of ground truth used
    • Sample size for the training set
    • How ground truth for the training set was established

The submission's focus is on declaring substantial equivalence based on material history and general performance comparison to predicates, rather than presenting a detailed performance study with explicit acceptance criteria for a new type of device or an AI/software component, which is what your questions suggest.

Description

The implant system includes a 1.7mm diameter PEEK (polyether-etherketone) anchor. pre-mounted on a disposable inserter. The anchor is preloaded with USP size 0 Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene suture. The device is designed to be inserted into a pre-formed hole using a single use disposable awl

Intended Use (Indications)

The A.I.M. ™ Suture Anchor is intended for use in arthroscopic, mini-open or open surgical procedures for fixation of soft tissue to bone.

The A.I.M. ™ Suture Anchor is intended for use in the following applications:

  • Ankle: Mid-foot Reconstruction .
  • Foot: Hallux valgus reconstruction o
  • Hand: Ulnar or lateral collateral ligament reconstruction ●
  • Wrist: Scapholunate ligament reconstruction .

Substantial Equivalence

This submission supports the position that the A.I.M.™ Suture Anchor is substantially equivalent to previously cleared devices, including those listed above. Data have been provided in the submission that demonstrates that the anchor pull-out forces are equivalent or superior to a referenced predicate device. Biocompatibility of the anchor was established through reference to data on file from the provider of the PEEK material. The referenced predicate devices include the same range of clinical uses in their labeling.

Conclusions

Anchor Innovation Medical, Inc. believes that the information provided establishes that similar legally marketed devices have been used for the same clinical applications as the A.J.M.™ Suture Anchor. The materials from which the Anchor Innovation Medical device is fabricated have an established history of use, and the devices have been tested in accordance with applicable FDA guidelines. The A.I.M. ™ Suture Anchor is substantially equivalent to previously marketed devices.

Dear Mr. Schrayer:

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. 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 device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set

§ 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.
