No
The document describes a system of suture anchors and associated instruments for surgical fixation, with no mention of AI or ML technology in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.
Yes
A therapeutic device is one that treats, prevents, or diagnoses a disease or condition. This device is intended for the fixation of soft tissue to bone in various procedures, which suggests its use in the treatment or repair of anatomical structures.
No
The device is a system of suture anchors and instruments intended for the fixation of soft tissue to bone during surgical repairs (e.g., rotator cuff repair, Achilles tendon repair). It is used for treatment, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states the system includes physical components such as suture anchors made of PEEK, repair sutures, inserters, taps, punches, drills, and guide tubes. It also mentions sterilization methods for these physical components.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Responsive Arthroscopy Suture Anchor System is used for the "fixation of soft tissue to bone" during surgical procedures. It lists specific anatomical sites and surgical procedures where the anchors are implanted directly into the patient's body.
- Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze any biological specimens outside of the body.
Therefore, the device described is a surgical implant used for mechanical fixation within the body, not an IVD.

§ 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)

Dear Mr. Arnold:
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, 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
1
requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/CombinationProducts/GuidanceRegulatoryInformation/ucm597488.html; good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm.
For comprehensive regulatory information about medical devices and radiation-emitting products, including information about labeling regulations, please see Device Advice (https://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/) and CDRH Learn (http://www.fda.gov/Training/CDRHLearn). Additionally, you may contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education (DICE) to ask a question about a specific regulatory topic.

TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS:
The Responsive Arthroscopy Suture Anchor System devices are made from similar anchor and suture materials and have identical diameters, similar fixation grooves and/or threads, identical numbers of sutures, and similar insertion method to the predicate devices. Any differences between the Responsive Arthroscopy Suture Anchor System devices and the predicates are considered minor and do not raise questions concerning safety or effectiveness.
PERFORMANCE TESTING:
The following bench testing was performed on the Responsive Arthroscopy Suture Anchor System and predicate devices:
Suture Characterization (previously cleared device reference) Insertion Torque Testing Insertion Force Testing Static & Fatique Pullout Force Testing Suture Locking Force Testing
Bacterial endotoxin testing was completed and met acceptable endotoxin limits per ANSI/AAMI ST72:2011(R2016). Mechanical testing of the Responsive Arthroscopy Suture Anchor System indicated no new risks and demonstrated substantial equivalence in performance compared to a legally marketed predicate.
CONCLUSIONS:
The Responsive Arthroscopy Suture Anchor System has shown to be substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicates based on indications for use, technological characteristics, performance testing, and comparison to predicate devices.
