The Bone<br>Anchor is packaged with a disposable Bone Awl to facilitate<br>placement of the device. The device is provided in one size<br>only.<br><br>The bone anchor assembly is comprised of one (1) titanium (Ti-<br>6Al-4V ELI) toggle-anchor, connected to an adjustable<br>polyethylene terephthalate (PET) 2-0 braided suture loop, via an<br>intermittent length of size 0 ultra high molecular weight<br>polyethylene (UHMWPE) Force Fiber suture.<br><br>The device's titanium component conforms to ASTM F-136.<br>The device's polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and ultra high<br>molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) suture components<br>conform to USP requirements. The constructs are provided<br>sterile and preloaded on disposable delivery instruments. | | | Indications for Use: | The Rimclose Bone Anchor is intended for fixation of suture to<br>bone. This product is intended for the following indications: | | | | Foot/Ankle: Lateral Stabilization, Medial Stabilization, Achilles<br>Tendon Repair, Hallux Valgus Reconstruction, Midfoot<br>Reconstruction, Metatarsal Ligament Repair | | | | Hand/Wrist: Scapholunate Ligament Reconstruction, Ulnar<br>Collateral Ligament Reconstruction, Radial Collateral Ligament<br>Reconstruction | | | Functional and<br>Safety Testing: | Biocompatibility and bench testing were completed and support<br>the safety and effectiveness of the Rimclose Bone Anchor. | | | Conclusion: | The Rimclose Bone Anchor is substantially equivalent to the<br>Arthrex FASTak Suture Anchor (7.5mm). In this case,<br>substantial equivalence is based on having the same intended use<br>with minor differences in technological characteristics, such that<br>it can be demonstrated that the device is as safe and effective as<br>the predicate device. Both anchors are both made of titanium.<br>FASTak uses threads for fixation in bone while the Rimclose<br>anchor is a T-anchor which toggles on deployment. Both<br>anchors are provided with suture to facilitate attachment to soft<br>tissue. The bone anchors demonstrated equivalent fixation<br>strength which greatly exceeded the tensile strength of the<br>suture. USP performance characteristics serve as a guide in<br>matching suture to procedural applications. | | {1}------------------------------------------------ : {2}------------------------------------------------ #### DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/11 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
