## Indications for use
The device is used to anchor suture into bone. The suture is subsequently used by the surgeon to reattach the repositioned/injured soft tissue to bone. The purpose of this 510(k) submission is to obtain clearance for the Mitek Micro Anchor for the lateral canthoplasty and collateral ligament(s) around the (PIP) joint. The intended use is the same as the predicate device, i.e., suture, when used to approximate soft tissue to bone during a period of rehabilitation.
