## Indications for use
The non-absorbable suture anchors are intended to reattach soft tissue to bone in orthopedic surgical procedures. The Y-Knot All-Suture Anchors may be used in either arthroscopic or open surgical procedures. After the suture strands are anchored to the bone, they may be used to reattach soft tissue, such as ligaments, tendons, or joint capsules to the bone. In conjunction with appropriate postoperative immobilization throughout the healing period, the suture anchor systems stabilize the damaged soft tissue.
