More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties of a physical screw, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes.
The device is used for fixation of ligaments and tendons in patients requiring repair, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No

This device is a fastener used for the fixation of ligaments and tendons, which indicates a therapeutic or reparative function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "cannulated, threaded, tapered fastener" made from a Titanium alloy, indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states the device is a "cannulated, threaded, tapered fastener for use in interference fixation of ligaments and tendons." Its intended use is for "fixation of ligaments and tendons in patients requiring ligament or tendon repair."
  • Mechanism of Action: This device is a physical implant used to mechanically secure tissues within the body. It does not interact with or analyze biological samples taken from the patient.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Parcus Titanium Interference Screw is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

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

The pull-out strength and insertion torque were measured for the smallest (7mm) and largest (12mm) Parcus Titanium Interference Screws as well as an intermediate size. As described above, no changes to the physical device are being made and therefore additional side by side comparisons were not deemed necessary. Based on the performance data included with the submission of K083619, the results of the insertion torque testing and pullout force demonstrated that there were no significant differences between the Parcus Titanium Interference Screw and the competitive devices.

§ 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 Alejandra Anderson:

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, 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 of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see

Predicate Device:

Parcus Titanium Interference Screws, K083619, Cleared March 6, 2009.

Device Description:

The Parcus Titanium Interference Screw is a cannulated, threaded, tapered fastener for use in interference fixation of ligaments and tendons in patients requiring ligament or tendon repair. The device is made from a Titanium alloy, Ti-6AI-4V ELI (ASTM F136) and is available in sizes ranging from 7-12mm in diameter and 20-35mm in length. Intended Use:

The Parcus Titanium Interference Screw is indicated for use in the fixation of ligaments and tendons in patients requiring ligament or tendon repair.

Substantial Equivalence Summary:

The Parcus Titanium Interference Screw is equivalent to the predicate Parcus Titanium Interfere Screws because they are the exact same device. No changes from the existing device are proposed with the exception of the inclusion of the MR Conditional parameters into the Instructions for Use. LAL testing has been tested on the Parcus Titanium Interference Screws and it was concluded that the Parcus Titanium Interference Screws do not raise any additional concerns regarding pyrogenicity.

Summary Performance Data:

The pull-out strength and insertion torque were measured for the smallest (7mm) and largest (12mm) Parcus Titanium Interference Screws as well as an intermediate size. As described above, no changes to the physical device are being made and therefore additional side by side comparisons were not deemed necessary. Based on the performance data included with the submission of K083619, the results of the insertion torque testing and pullout force demonstrated that there were no significant differences between the Parcus Titanium Interference Screw and the competitive devices.
