No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties and surgical application of the anchors, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is described as "designed for use in the attachment of soft tissue to bone" for various repairs across multiple anatomical sites (e.g., Rotator Cuff Repair, Ligament Repair). These applications directly aim to treat or alleviate a medical condition, which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device.

No
The device is described as an anchor for attaching soft tissue to bone, used in various repair and reconstruction procedures. Its function is to fix tissue, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly states the device is made from physical materials (PEEK or PEEK CF) and is provided sterile, indicating it is a physical implantable device, not software.

Based on the provided information, the Parcus SLiK Anchors are not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the attachment of soft tissue to bone during surgical procedures. This is a direct surgical intervention on the body.
  • Device Description: The device is a physical implant (anchor) made of PEEK or PEEK CF, designed to be placed within the body.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, tissue, or urine) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the mechanical properties of the anchor (strength, elongation, torque) and its ability to function as a surgical implant, not on diagnostic accuracy or analytical performance.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. The Parcus SLiK Anchors are a surgical implant used for repair and reconstruction, not for diagnostic testing.

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

The SLiK Anchors were evaluated and testing was conducted on the worst case configurations. Devices were assembled per the DFU and placed in a test fixture. Devices were evaluated for strength and elongation under cycle loading and ultimate failure conditions. In addition, insertion torque and failure torque values were determined in order to ensure the necessary safety factor exists during insertion of the device. Results were compared with test data for the predicate devices and demonstrated substantial equivalency.

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Vagts:

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.

Substantial Equivalence Summary:

The Parcus SLiK Anchors are very similar to the predicate Parcus Medical devices in that they are comprised of the same materials, are manufactured in comparable fashions, and are intended for the same indications. While the SLiK Anchors are offered without suture (like the Knothess predicate) and feature a thread-in insertion technique (like the Twist predicate), testing has shown that the

combination of these features does not raise any concerns regarding the safety or efficacy of the device. LAL testing was conducted on a comparable device and it was concluded that the SLiK Anchors do not raise any addition concerns regarding pyrogenicity.

Summary Performance Data:

The SLiK Anchors were evaluated and testing was conducted on the worst case configurations. Devices were assembled per the DFU and placed in a test fixture. Devices were evaluated for strength and elongation under cycle loading and ultimate failure conditions. In addition, insertion torque and failure torque values were determined in order to ensure the necessary safety factor exists during insertion of the device. Results were compared with test data for the predicate devices and demonstrated substantial equivalency.
