The description focuses on the mechanical properties and surgical application of a suture anchor, with no mention of AI or ML.
No.
The device is a suture anchor system used to secure soft tissue to bone, which is a structural component for repair rather than a device intended to treat or prevent a disease or condition for therapeutic benefit.
No
The device description and intended use clearly state that the Stryker Wedge Suture Anchor System is an implant used to secure soft tissue to bone, a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly states it is a titanium alloy implant (hardware) used to anchor suture within bone.
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 the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions.
- Stryker Wedge Suture Anchor System Function: The description clearly states that this device is a surgical implant used to physically secure soft tissue to bone. It is a mechanical device used during surgery, not a tool for analyzing biological samples outside the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use describes surgical procedures and anatomical locations, not diagnostic testing.
- Device Description: The device is described as a titanium alloy implant with sutures, designed for physical fixation.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the mechanical strength of the anchor (pull-out strength), which is relevant to its function as a surgical implant, not a diagnostic test.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the Stryker Wedge Suture Anchor System is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The intended use of the Stryker Wedge Suture Anchor System is for securing soft tissue to bone in such procedures as rotator cuff tear repair, bankart lesion repair, and SLAP lesion repair in the shoulder, as well as achilles tendon repair in the foot/ankle, medial collateral ligament repair in the knee, scapholunate ligament reconstruction in the hand/wrist, and biceps tendon reattachment in the elbow. The Stryker Wedge Suture Anchor system is intended for the fixation of surgical suture material to the pelvis only for the purpose of bladder neck suspension female urinary incontinence due to urethral hyper mobility or intrinsic sphincter deficiency. The suture anchor engages in bone so as to provide a stable bony attachment site for the soft tissue. This device is intended to be used primarily in arthroscopic repairs, but is suitable in open procedure as well, and is intended for single-use only. This device is infended for use only for the fixation of non-absorbable synthetic sutures.

Device Description
Stryker Wedge Suture Anchors are titanium alloy implants used to anchor suture within bone sites for firmly securing soft tissue to bone. The Anchors are self-drilling, self-tapping, threaded devices. The Anchor is supplied with non-absorbable braided polyester suture assembled to a disposable inserter. The sutures are color-coded white and green for visual identification of the individual strands during use.

§ 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.

Safety and Effectiveness Summary:
This summary of 510(k) safety and effectiveness is being submitted in accordance with requirements of SMDA 1990.
Stryker Wedge Suture Anchors are titanium alloy implants used to anchor suture within bone sites for firmly securing soft tissue to bone. The Anchors are self-drilling, self-tapping, threaded devices. The Anchor is supplied with non-absorbable braided polyester suture assembled to a disposable inserter. The sutures are color-coded white and green for visual identification of the individual strands during use.
The Stryker Wedge Suture Anchor System is intended for use in securing soft tissue to bone in such procedures as rotator cuff tear repair, bankart lesion repair, and SLAP lesion repair in the shoulder, as well as achilles tendon repair in the foot/ankle, medial collateral ligament repair in the knee, scapholunate ligament reconstruction in the hand/wrist, and biceps tendon reattachment in the elbow. The Stryker Wedge Suture Anchor system is intended for the fixation of surgical suture material to the pelvis only for the purpose of bladder neck suspension female urinary incontinence due to urethral hyper mobility or intrinsic sphincter deficiency. The Stryker Wedge Suture Anchor System is equivalent in intended use, safety and effectiveness to other fixation devices in commercial distribution. The Stryker Wedge Suture Anchor System will be provided sterile for single-use applications (ASTM 4169). This device will be sterilized by Gamma irradiation and validated (AAMI ST32) to a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10-6. The material of construction and its overall design are equivalent to currently marketed products. The device materials are biocompatible per ASTM F136 and ISO-10993.
