Zusammenfassung:A knotless anchor assembly method and device comprising an anchor and a compression member, wherein the anchor further comprises a pilot tip and anchor body. During procedures to tension the knotless anchor assembly, the anchor is driven into bone or other surface or component, and the tension member is urged into the anchor body recess. The compression member is secured in the anchor body to lock the tension member in place. The knotless anchor assembly gives the surgeon or user the ability to optimize tensioning by having the ability to change tension in the tension member by adjusting the compression member during or after the repair.
