Intended Use
The CrossFT™ Knotless Suture Anchor with Disposable Driver is intended to reattach soft tissue to bone in orthopedic surgical procedures. The device 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.
Device Description
The CrossFT™ Knotless Suture Anchors with Disposable Driver are sterile, single use devices. The CrossFT™ Knotless Suture Anchors are manufactured from PolyEtherEtherKetone (PEEK™). The anchors are provided sterile, single use and preloaded on a disposable driver. The anchors are available in three sizes and nine configurations.
More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical suture anchor and driver, with no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No.
The device is described as a suture anchor system used to reattach soft tissue to bone, stabilizing damaged soft tissue during healing. While it aids in the healing process, it is a fixation device rather than one that directly treats a disease or condition through therapeutic action.

No

The device is intended to reattach soft tissue to bone in orthopedic surgical procedures and stabilizes damaged soft tissue. It is a surgical implant for repair, not a device used to diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states that the device is a physical implant (suture anchor) made of PEEK and a disposable driver, indicating it is a hardware medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "reattach soft tissue to bone in orthopedic surgical procedures." This is a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body) to provide mechanical support and facilitate healing.
  • Device Description: The device is a "Knotless Suture Anchor with Disposable Driver" made of PEEK. This is a physical implant and delivery system.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD is a medical device used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such analysis of biological specimens.

The device is clearly intended for direct surgical intervention within the body, which is the opposite of an in vitro diagnostic.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The CrossFT™ Knotless Anchor with Disposable Driver is intended to reattach soft tissue to bone in orthopedic surgical procedures. The device may be used in either arthroscopic or open surgical procedures. After the sutured 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 appropriative immobilization, throughout the healing period.

§ 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.
