Device Description
The VersaTap™ Suture Anchor is a self-tapping suture anchor. This anchor is designed to combine the advantages of both PEEK and Titanium. The titanium tip makes the product self-tapping, whilst the majority of the anchor is manufactured from PEEK to minimize post-operative imaging effects. The VersaPEEK™ Suture Anchor is manufactured completely from PEEK. This material composition minimizes post-operative imaging effects. The suture anchor is designed for ultimate mechanical properties (pullout strength, tensile strength, etc). The VersaPEEK™ Suture Anchor also has a variety of suture/suture tape configurations. The MicroTiTM Suture Anchor is a small screw-in suture anchor used in a variety of small-joint applications. Despite its small diameter, the specially engineered thread combines with cortical bone to provide tremendous pull-out strength. The VersaLat™ Ti Suture Anchor is a knotless-/suture anchor. This titanium screw-in anchor can be combined with the VersaTap™ Suture Anchor in double rotator cuff repair surgery. Flexibility is what differentiates this anchor from its competitors with surgeons being able to fixate any number of sutures/tapes (K150438) by adjusting the size of the characteristic front loop. The extra suture provided by this anchor can also be used for the fixation of the biceps tendon or any ligament fragments. The VersaLat™ Suture Anchor is a knotless-/suture anchor.

More Information

No
The device description and intended use are focused on the mechanical properties and surgical application of suture anchors, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is described as "suture anchors" intended for "soft tissue fixation during general orthopedic surgery" for "tendon and ligament repairs." These repairs are therapeutic interventions.

No

The devices described are suture anchors intended for soft tissue fixation during orthopedic surgery (tendon and ligament repairs). They are used for physical repair, not for diagnosing conditions or diseases.

No

The device description clearly states that the devices are physical suture anchors made from materials like PEEK and Titanium, intended for surgical implantation.

Based on the provided text, these devices are not IVDs (In Vitro Diagnostics).

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 descriptions and intended uses clearly state that these devices are suture anchors used for soft tissue fixation during general orthopedic surgery. They are implanted into the body to attach soft tissue and ligaments to bone.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological specimens, providing diagnostic information based on laboratory tests, or any other activity associated with in vitro diagnostics.

These devices are implantable surgical devices used for mechanical fixation within the body, which falls under a different regulatory category than IVDs.
