Conditions

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury, Rotator Cuff Tear

Brief summary

The objective of this study is to confirm the safety and performance on the EZPass Suture Passer Instrumentation and the Precision Flexible Reamer Instrumentation.

Detailed description

The primary objective of the study is to assess performance, clinical benefits and safety of the EZPass Suture Passer and the Precision Flexible Reamer Instrumentation. Performance and clinical benefits will be assessed through an operative survey conducted immediately following intraoperative surgery to determine if the device performed as expected. Safety will be assessed by recording and analyzing the incidence and frequency of complications, adverse events, and intra-operative revisions.
