You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for {1}------------------------------------------------ devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Bench testing for mechanical pull-out strength shows that there was a statistically significant improvement of pull-out strength for the subject device as compared to the listed predicate. > A sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10-6 has been established in conformance with ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11135-1. The validation meets the residuals of ethylene oxide and ethylene chlorohydrin are below the thresholds specified in ANSI/AAMI/ISO 10993-7. Packaging has met all acceptance criteria for labeling of 5-year shelf life (ISO ISO11607-2). Bacterial endotoxin testing meets the established limits. Based on the comparative analysis, subject FootHold™System meets ISO 10993-1 for biocompatibility. The results demonstrate the performance of the subject FootHold™System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. {6}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/6/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for Crossroads Extremity Systems. The logo consists of four squares in the colors blue and green, arranged in a 2x2 grid. To the right of the squares is the text "CrossRoads" in a gray, sans-serif font, with a trademark symbol after the word. Below the word "CrossRoads" is the text "Extremity Systems" in a smaller, light blue font. ## Conclusion: There are no substantial differences between the FootHold™System and the predicate devices with respect to intended use and technological characteristics, including basic design, materials of manufacture, mechanical properties, and intended effect. Therefore, the FootHold™System can be found substantially equivalent to the cited predicate, as it does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.
