Indications for Use

The AMS Mainstay Urologic Bone Anchor is intended only for the fixation of surgical suture material to the pelvis for the purpose of bladder neck suspension for female urinary incontinence due to urethral hypermobility or intrinsic sphincter deficiency.

Device Story

AMS Mainstay Urologic Bone Anchor is a titanium alloy implant designed for bladder neck suspension procedures. Device functions by anchoring surgical suture material into cortical or cancellous bone of the pelvis, allowing secure attachment of soft tissue to bone. Implant features a proximal hole for suture attachment and a cancellous screw thread design for self-drilling/self-tapping installation. Used by surgeons in clinical settings to treat female urinary incontinence. By providing a stable bone-suture interface, the device facilitates the suspension of the bladder neck, addressing urethral hypermobility or intrinsic sphincter deficiency. Device is supplied as a sterile implant.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Testing evaluated the Maximum Suture to Bone Anchor Interface Break Force for monofilament suture. Two sizes of non-absorbable monofilament suture (#3-0 and #2) were tested. Results showed all sutures exceeded USP minimum knot-pull strength requirements for Class I non-absorbable suture by more than a factor of four.

Technological Characteristics

Material: Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy. Design: Cancellous screw thread, self-drilling, self-tapping, proximal hole for suture attachment. Dimensions: 3.5 mm anchor. Energy source: None (mechanical). Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Not specified.

Indications for Use

Indicated for female patients with urinary incontinence due to urethral hypermobility or intrinsic sphincter deficiency requiring bladder neck suspension via fixation of surgical suture to the pelvis.

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.

American Medical Systems, Inc. Name and Address: 10700 Bren Road West Minnetonka, MN 55343 USA John M. Otto Contact Person: April 9, 1997 Date of Summary Preparation: June 9, 1997 Date Summary Amended: 2183959 Establishment Registration Number: ## DEVICE NAME II. Device Common or Usual Name: Staple, Fixation, Bone Appliance for Reconstruction of Bone to Soft Tissue Device Trade Name: AMS Mainstay™ Urologic Bone Anchor ## PREDICATE DEVICE III. Howmedica® Mainstay™ Soft Tissue Anchor K953531 ### DEVICE DESCRIPTION IV. The AMS Mainstay™ Urologic Bone Anchor for bladder neck suspension procedures are titanium alloy implants. They are used to anchor suture material within cortical or cancellous bone sites, thereby providing a means for firmly securing soft tissue to bone. Two (2) Mainstay™ anchors are packaged in one box. The recommended nonabsorbable suture size for the 3.5 mm Mainstay™ anchor is up to a maximum size of #0 (USP) when using two (2) strands and up to a maximum size of #2 when using a single strand. ## V. INDICATIONS FOR USE The AMS Mainstay Urologic Bone Anchor is intended only for the fixation of surgical suture material to the pelvis for the purpose of bladder neck suspension for female urinary incontinence due to urethral hypermobility or intrinsic sphincter deficiency. {1}------------------------------------------------ #### VI. COMPARISON TO PREDICATE DEVICE The AMS Mainstay™ Urologic Bone Anchor with the proposed modifications is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed Howmedica® Mainstay™ Soft Tissue Anchor. #### Intended Use a. The AMS Mainstay™ Urologic Bone Anchor with the proposed modifications has the same intended use as one of the indications cleared for the currently marketed Howmedica® Mainstay™ Soft Tissue Anchor (Bladder Neck Suspension). #### b. Device Performance The AMS Mainstay™ Urologic Bone Anchor with the proposed modifications is comparable with respect to intended use and technological characteristics to the Howmedica® Mainstay™ Soft Tissue Anchor which is in commercial distribution in the United States. American Medical Systems has provided a table on the following page which compares the similarities and differences of the devices. #### Bench Testing C. The only new test performed for the AMS Mainstay™ Urologic Bone Anchor was for the Maximum Suture to Bone Anchor Interface Break Force for Monofilament Suture. The objective of the test was to measure the maximum force required to break monofilament suture that has been attached to a bone anchor, and to compare these data to the minimum knot-pull strength requirements in the USP for the same size and class of suture. Two (2) sizes of a nonabsorbable monofilament suture were evaluated in this test. All of the sutures tested exceeded the USP recommended minimum knot-pull strength for their respective class and size of suture (non-absorbable, Class I). The average suture break force for both the #3-0 and the #2 exceeded the USP minimum recommended knot-pull strength by more than a factor of four (4). In summary, American Medical Systems has provided information within the 510(k) Premarket Notification to indicate that the AMS Mainstay™ Urologic Bone Anchor with the proposed modifications is safe and effective for its intended use (Bladder Neck Suspension) as one of the indications cleared for the currently marketed Howmedica® Mainstay™ Soft Tissue Anchor. Additionally, the modified AMS Mainstay™ Urologic Bone Anchor has been shown to be comparable in terms of intended use and technological characteristics to the Howmedica® Mainstay™ Soft Tissue Anchor currently in {2}------------------------------------------------ commercial distribution. The data and information provided within this 510(k) Premarket Notification adequately support that the AMS Mainstay™ Urologic Bone Anchor with the proposed modifications is substantially equivalent to the Howmedica® Mainstay™ Soft Tissue Anchor that is currently in commercial distribution. # EQUIVALENCY TABLE | American Medical Systems<br>Mainstay Urologic Bone<br>Anchor | Howmedica Mainstay Soft<br>Tissue Anchor (K953531) | Zimmer Statak Anchors<br>(K926384) | |--------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------| | INTENDED USE | | | | a.
