Intended Use
Intended for fixation during the healing process for: - . Syndesmotic trauma, such as syndesmosis disruptions in connection with Weber B and C ankle fractures. - . Reconstruction (correction) of a hallux valgus deformity by providing for the reduction of 1st metatarsal-201 metatarsal (IM) angle.
Device Description
The KISSloc™ Suture System is a non-resorbable system consisting of a small Suture Plate, UHMWPE Suture Assembly and Arrow Plate for security. The suture is hooked around the Arrow Plate and passes through the two holes in the plate to form the entire assembly. This implant construct is intended to be used for fracture fixation between two bone segments and/or realignment and stabilization of an underlying skeletal (bony or soft tissue) deformity. Ancillary instruments required to aid in insertion of the KISSloc™ Suture System will be provided separately in a sterile disposable package. All implant components will also be provided in a sterile package.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical properties and fixation, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.

No
This device is for fracture fixation and realignment, not for treating or preventing diseases or conditions.

No

The device is a surgical implant intended for fixation and stabilization of bone segments or deformities. It does not perform any diagnostic functions like detecting, monitoring, or predicting diseases or conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "non-resorbable system consisting of a small Suture Plate, UHMWPE Suture Assembly and Arrow Plate for security," which are physical hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for fixation during the healing process of bone fractures and deformities (syndesmotic trauma, ankle fractures, hallux valgus). This is a therapeutic and structural function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device is an implantable system (Suture Plate, Suture Assembly, Arrow Plate) used to physically stabilize bone segments. This is a medical device used in vivo (within the body), not in vitro (outside the body).
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples (blood, tissue, etc.) or provide 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 does not fit that description.

§ 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)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Ms. Wilson:

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 Equivalency:

The intended use, materials, and application of the Proposed Device are substantially equivalent to the following previously cleared and commercially marketed devices:

Arthrosurface KISSloc™ Suture SystemK133835
Biomet ToggleLoc System (Ziptight)K130033
Arthrex Mini TightRope Repair KitK061925

The fundamental scientific technology of the proposed device has not changed relative to the predicate devices:

  • . Intended as adjuncts in fracture repair or for fixation of bone as fixation posts, distribution bridges, or for distributing suture tension over areas of ligament or tendon repair
  • . Similar indications for use
  • Similar device designs
  • Same Titanium and UHMWPE implant materials

The following non-clinical testing was performed on the KISSloc™ Suture System and the comparable Biomet ToggleLoc System:

  • Static tensile load to failure
    The test report included demonstrates that the Arthrosurface KISSloc™ device outperformed the predicate device for the mechanical tests conducted.

No clinical data was provided in support of this substantial equivalency.

The safety and effectiveness of using the KISSloc™ Suture System is adequately supported by the substantial equivalence and performance testing information provided within this Premarket Notification. Minor difference in device design and technique were determined not to be critical to the intended use of the device and do not affect the safety and effectiveness of the device when used as labeled.
