Intended Use
The Integrity™ Bone Staple Fixation System is indicated for the fixation of soft tissue grafts or reinforcement meshes to bone during rotator cuff repairs.
Device Description
The Integrity™ Bone Staple Fixation System consists of bone staples and a delivery instrument. The bone staple is a staple-shaped tack with barbed ends and is comprised of non-absorbable poly(ether ether ketone) [PEEK]. The bone staples are designed to provide fixation of soft tissue grafts or reinforcement meshes to bone at surgery and are used in conjunction with a Delivery instrument from Anika. The device is sterilized by radiation with a SAL of 10-9. The bone staples and delivery instruments are provided sterile for single use only. The staples are packaged in a caddy within a dual sterile packaging configuration.
More Information

Not Found

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

No
The device is described as a fixation system for soft tissue grafts or reinforcement meshes to bone, which is a structural or mechanical support function, not a therapeutic treatment of a disease or condition.

No
The device is described as a fixation system for soft tissue grafts or reinforcement meshes to bone during rotator cuff repairs, rather than a tool for diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of bone staples (hardware made of PEEK) and a delivery instrument (also hardware). It is a physical implant and delivery system, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. These tests are performed outside of the body.
  • Device Function: The Integrity™ Bone Staple Fixation System is a surgical implant used to physically attach soft tissue grafts or reinforcement meshes to bone during surgery. It is a mechanical device used directly on the patient's body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "fixation of soft tissue grafts or reinforcement meshes to bone during rotator cuff repairs." This is a surgical procedure, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.

The description and intended use clearly indicate this is a surgical device, not an IVD.

Discussion

Indications for Use Statement:

Both the subject and predicate devices are indicated for use during rotator cuff repair surgery to aid in the management tendon injuries. The subject device is designed to affix soft tissue graft or reinforcement mesh to bone which has been mechanically tested and did not raise any concerns on safety and effectiveness. There are no additional questions on safety and effectiveness of the subject device as compared to the predicate.

Dimensions:

The difference in dimension is not expected to impact the safety and effectiveness of the device as higher tensile and shear retention strength have been demonstrated in the subject device mechanical performance testing.

Packaging:

The package for both subject and predicate devices are industry standard packages. The Integrity Bone Staples has double sterile barrier packaging. They are pre-loaded into a caddy that is packaged in a double pouch to ensure adequate protection and sterility of the subject device during the shelf life. The predicate device is packaged in a sealed dual blister pack that provides protection and maintains sterility during the shelf life. The difference in package configuration from the predicate does not raise any new concerns of safety and efficacy of the subject device.

Performance Testing Summary

The following non-clinical tests and/or analysis were performed for the Subject Device to demonstrate the substantial equivalence to the predicate devices:

  • Mechanical retention strength, tensile & shear ●
  • Insertion and removal evaluation
  • Biocompatibility Testing; Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, and Irritation
  • Bacterial endotoxin limit test

No clinical or animal data were required to support the substantial equivalence.

Conclusion

The Integrity ™ Bone Staple Fixation System subject to this submission has similar indications for use statement, same intended use, same material, and general physical form. The testing data has demonstrated the performance of the Integrity ™ Bone Staple Fixation System and the predicate device, Rotation Medical Bone Staple is substantially equivalent. Any differences in characteristics do not raise additional questions of safety and effectiveness.
