Impact™ Suture Anchor
 
 
ConMed Corporation
The Linvatec Impact™ Suture Anchor is a bioabsorbable push and rotate suture anchor that is preloaded on a disposable inserter. The Impact Suture Anchor is manufactured from Self-Reinforced™ (96L/4D) PLA Copolymer that retains 90 strength through approximately 20 weeks and completely resorbs over a period of several years (depending on patient variables.) The unique absorption profile of the Copolymer allows the anchor to gradually lose strength as the collagen fibers of the repair form and gain strength.
