Abstract
Surgical fixation assemblies include a screw-in anchor with a suture construct attached to and extending through an interior of the anchor. The suture construct has two finger trap splices to trap suture that has been passed through them when the construct is placed in tension. Transfer sutures containing loops are preloaded through the finger trap splices and used to pull the ends of the repair sutures through the finger trap splices to form reducing loops around or through captured tissue.
