## Indications for use
The CrossFT™ Knotless Anchor with Disposable Driver is intended to reattach soft tissue to bone in orthopedic surgical procedures. The device may be used in either arthroscopic or open surgical procedures. After the suture is anchored to the bone, it may be used to reattach soft tissue, such as ligaments, tendons, or joint capsules to the bone. The suture anchor system thereby stabilizes the damaged soft tissue, in conjunction with appropriate postoperative immobilization, throughout the healing period.
