AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

  • What is the primary use of the Y-KNOT FLEX ALL-SUTURE ANCHOR in orthopedic surgery?

    The Y-KNOT FLEX ALL-SUTURE ANCHOR is specifically designed to secure soft tissue to bone during orthopedic procedures. Its flexible, knotless anchor system eliminates the need for manual knot tying, providing stable fixation with two included #2 (5 metric) Hi-Fi sutures.

  • Is this device compatible with MRI environments, and why might that matter?

    Yes, the Y-KNOT FLEX ALL-SUTURE ANCHOR is explicitly designed to be MRI-compatible, which is important for patients who may require postoperative imaging. This ensures the device won’t interfere with MRI scans, reducing the risk of complications or misdiagnosis due to imaging artifacts.

  • How is the Y-KNOT FLEX ALL-SUTURE ANCHOR supplied, and what does that mean for its use?

    The device is supplied sterile and intended for single-use only, meaning it is pre-packaged in a sterile condition and should not be reused after a single surgical procedure. This ensures patient safety and maintains the integrity of the fixation system.

  • What storage and handling precautions should be taken to keep the device functional?

    Since the device is sterile and single-use, it must be stored and handled according to standard surgical instrument protocols to preserve sterility and functionality. This includes keeping it in its original packaging until immediately before use, avoiding contamination, and adhering to facility-specific sterile processing guidelines.

  • What regulatory pathways does this device follow, and what does that mean for its use?

    The Y-KNOT FLEX ALL-SUTURE ANCHOR is regulated under FDA 510(k) clearance (K131035) and the Medical Devices Directive (MDD).
