Intended Use
The 10mm LinX HT is intended for use in the fixation of ligament and tendon grafts in cruciate ligament reconstruction surgeries.
Device Description
The Innovasive 10mm LinX HT utilizes a central pin placed inside an outer sleeve resulting in the expansion of the outer sleeve and the ultimate fixation of the device into bone. The Innovasive Devices 10mm LinX HT will be offered in two sizes, 10mm outside diameter x 40mm length, and 10mm outside diameter x 55mm length. The outer sleeve has threads on its exterior to hold to the bone and a central ID designed to accept the pin component. The central pin has ribs along its length designed to expand the outer sleeve as it is placed down the sleeve inside diameter. The front of the pin has a through-hole to accept a piece of suture to guide the pin into the sleeve during the deployment of the device. The suture is then removed and discarded.
More Information

No
The description focuses on the mechanical design and function of a surgical fixation device, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is described as a fixation device for ligament and tendon grafts in cruciate ligament reconstruction surgeries, which supports the healing process rather than directly treating a disease or condition.

No
This device is for the fixation of ligament and tendon grafts in surgical procedures, not for diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly details physical components (central pin, outer sleeve, threads, ribs, suture) and mechanical testing, indicating it is a hardware medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "in the fixation of ligament and tendon grafts in cruciate ligament reconstruction surgeries." This is a surgical procedure performed on a patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a physical implant designed to be placed within bone to secure grafts.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.

This device is a surgical implant, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample outside the body.

§ 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.

Contact: Stephen M. Page, Manager of Regulatory Affairs Date Prepared: January 26, 1998

2. DEVICE:

Innovasive 10mm LinX HT Classification Name: Single/multiple component bone fixation appliances and accessories. Trade Name: Innovasive Devices 10mm LinX HT Ligament Fastener

3. PREDICATE DEVICE:

The predicate device used to determine substantial equivalence for the Innovasive Devices 10mm LinX HT Ligament Fastener was the 8mm LinX HT Ligament Fastener marketed by Innovasive Devices, Marlborough, MA.

4. DEVICE DESCRIPTION:

The Innovasive 10mm LinX HT utilizes a central pin placed inside an outer sleeve resulting in the expansion of the outer sleeve and the ultimate fixation of the device into bone. The Innovasive Devices 10mm LinX HT will be offered in two sizes, 10mm outside diameter x 40mm length, and 10mm outside diameter x 55mm length.

The outer sleeve has threads on its exterior to hold to the bone and a central ID designed to accept the pin component.

The central pin has ribs along its length designed to expand the outer sleeve as it is placed down the sleeve inside diameter. The front of the pin has a through-hole to accept a piece of suture to guide the pin into the sleeve during the deployment of the device. The suture is then removed and discarded.

5. INTENDED USE:

The 10mm LinX HT is intended for use in the fixation of ligament and tendon grafts in cruciate ligament reconstruction.

6. COMPARISON OF CHARACTERISTICS:

The Innovasive 10mm LinX HT utilizes the same basic design for fixation into bone as the currently marketed 8mm LinX HT (K970316). This design utilizes a central pin placed inside an outer sleeve resulting in the expansion of the outer sleeve and the ultimate fixation of the device into bone.

7. PERFORMANCE DATA:

The following performance data was provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination:

    1. Mechanical Testing: Comparison of the ultimate holding strength in a bone model compared to the predicate device. The Innovasive 10mm LinX HT holding strength was found to be equivalent to the strength of the predicate device.
