DEVICE: STRoPP (00815432023783)

A cylindrical-shaped, solid, metal instrument intended to be used to insert and pull suture material through tissue (e.g., skin, fascia, serous, vascular, or other tissue/organ) during surgical stitching of tissues. It is available in various lengths, curvatures, diameters, cross-sectional shapes, and distal end forms. This is a single-use device.

A non-powered, hand-held device intended to pass sutures or a needle/suture assembly through tissues/prosthetic materials to facilitate suturing during an endoscopic and/or open surgical procedure; it may also knot, cut and/or tighten the sutures/ligature loop during or after placement. It typically consists of a shaft with hooks, catches, clasps, or forceps-like jaws at the distal end, and a proximal handle with controls. It typically has a pointed/cutting component to create a suture tunnel, and is loaded with the sutures or the suture is inserted through the shaft. This is a single-use device.

An orthopaedic surgical instrument intended to resect bone (cut out part of the bone), and in some cases hypertrophic tissue [e.g., ligamentum flavum], to: 1) accept a prosthetic implant, typically at or within a joint (e.g., condyle of knee, neck of humerus, olecranon of ulna); and/or 2) relieve pressure at or facilitate access to a joint. Commonly called a mill or a reamer, it is typically designed as a stainless steel cylindrical body with an end/circumferential cutting edge and is attached to a shaft for manual or powered rotation. This is a single-use device.

An orthopaedic surgical instrument designed to resect bone (cut out part of the bone) and precisely shape a specific area of bone as it is advanced for the acceptance of a prosthetic implant, typically at or within a joint (e.g., condyle of knee, neck of humerus, olecranon of ulna). Commonly called a mill or a reamer it is typically designed as either a preshaped or a solid cylindrical body with an end/circumferential cutting edge, and is attached to a shaft for manual or powered rotation. It is typically made of a high-grade stainless steel alloy available in varying sizes. This is a previously used single-use device that has been processed for an additional single-use patient application.

A non-bioabsorbable device designed to be implanted into bone for the attachment of tendons/ligaments/soft tissues either directly or via a suture attached to the device; typically used in arthroscopic or open surgical procedures. This device is available in various designs and sizes and is made of a material that cannot be chemically degraded or absorbed via natural body processes [e.g., titanium (Ti)].

A hand-held manual surgical instrument designed to grasp a suture needle when pushing/pulling the needle and attached suture through tissue during suturing. It has short serrated jaws at the distal end to provide better grip of the needle, and is available in a wide variety of sizes and designs, such as: 1) a self-retaining, scissors-like design with ring handles at the proximal end; 2) a tweezers-like design with bowed, hinged handles that are operated by squeezing them together; and 3) a heavy-duty pincer-like design. This is a single-use device.

A nonimplantable device in the form of a thin rod intended to be drilled into bone to assist with the positioning of an implantable device and/or surgical instrument (e.g., fixation plate, drill guide) during an orthopaedic procedure. It is also referred to as a wire or temporary K-wire. This is a single-use device.
