Indications for Use
STATIV® Knotted UHMWPE Suture Anchor with the sutures/tapes are Intended for soft tissue fixation to the bone. These sutures/tapes may be incorporated, as components, into surgeries where constructs including those with allograft or auto graft tissues are used for repair.
Device Story
STATIV® Knotted UHMWPE Suture Anchor is a sterile, single-use fixation device for soft tissue-to-bone repair. It consists of a soft anchor preloaded with non-absorbable UHMWPE sutures or tapes, mounted on an inserter with a handle. Available in self-tap/self-punching variants. During surgery, the anchor is deployed into a pilot hole; upon deployment, the anchor structure bunches into a tri-pod pattern, increasing its size to provide pull-out strength. Used by surgeons in orthopedic procedures (shoulder, knee, hip, foot/ankle, hand/wrist, elbow). The device provides secure mechanical fixation, allowing for tissue healing. Benefits include high pull-out strength and secure construct for various soft tissue repairs.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by bench performance testing, including pull-out strength, cyclical loading, bacterial endotoxin testing, and biocompatibility (skin sensitization, intracutaneous reactivity, material-mediated pyrogenicity, acute systemic toxicity, in vitro cytotoxicity).
Technological Characteristics
Anchor: UHMWPE loop/suture/tape with polycaprolactone additive. Dispenser: 300 series stainless steel. Handle: ABS. Ring: Silicone rubber. Principle: Mechanical soft tissue-to-bone fixation via bunched anchor deployment. Sterilization: Ethylene Oxide (EO). Single-use.
Indications for Use
Indicated for fixation of soft tissue to bone in shoulder (rotator cuff, SLAP, biceps tenodesis, AC separation, deltoid, capsular reconstruction), foot/ankle (stabilization, Achilles, metatarsal, hallux valgus, tendon transfers, mid-foot), knee (collateral ligaments, patellar tendon, iliotibial band, joint capsule), hand/wrist (scapholunate, collateral ligaments, flexor/extensor tendons, carpal ligaments, CMC arthroplasty), elbow (biceps reattachment, collateral ligaments), and hip (acetabular labral, capsular, gluteal tendon) procedures.
Regulatory Classification
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.

# SE Analysis 1:
# Anchor Material:
Difference in Anchor Material does not affect the safety and efficacy of subject device based on the reference comparative study. Predicate device (K203268) has an anchor loop made up of Hollow braid of polyester, whereas the subject device has an anchor made up of UHMWPE.
From the literature study4 it can be inferred that the Polyester suture had lower ultimate load than all groups of sutures used in the study except the suture composed of polyester and UHMWPE (P<.05). Pure UHMWPE suture had higher ultimate failure load than sutures composed of either polyester or polyester plus UHMWPE (P<.05). Predominant failure mode was suture cutting through the meniscus for the groups except for polyester suture which failed by suture rupture.
This literature study shows that UHMWPE material has better ultimate load than the material used in predicate and this change is not raising any questions on the safety and efficacy of the subject device.

# SE Analysis 2:
# Specification and Dimensions:
During the bench testing of subject device, it was observed that the changes in dimensions are not leading to any kind of new risks with the performance of subject device, and the acceptance criteria was met in each of the performance tests as per defined guidelines and applicable standards. By considering the performance data of the subject device, it is evident that the changes in dimensions are not causing and or does not affect the safety and efficacy of the product when comparing it with Predicate device. The different sizes of the subject device are determined through the diameter of the dispenser which is not implantable in nature, however, there is no change in the size of the implant, so the variation in sizes of the dispenser will not lead to any kind of new risks related to safety and performance.
#### 1.7. Summary of Performance Data
The pull-out strength and displacement under cyclic loading of STATIV® Knotted UHMWPE Suture Anchor and Predicate device. The results were reviewed and side by side comparisons were done with the identified predicate device and it demonstrated that there were no significant differences between the STATIV® Knotted UHMWPE Suture Anchor and the predicate device.
#### 1.8. Clinical Testing
Not Applicable
#### 1.9. Conclusion
There are no significant differences between the subject device and the predicate devices that would adversely affect the use of the product. The subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device (Arthrex FiberTak Suture Anchor) in design, Intended use, Indications for use, function, Sterilization method, Shelf Life, and operational principles. From the data available we can justify that the STATIV® Knotted UHMWPE Suture Anchor is as safe, and as effective and performs the same indications for use as that of already marketed predicate device identified in 1.3 of 510(k) summary.

Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
