Intended Use

The EBI® DynaFix® Compression Bone Screws are indicated for fusions, fractures, or osteotomies of the Upper and Lower Extremities.

Device Story

EBI® DynaFix® Compression Bone Screw is an internal fixation device designed for surgical use in the upper and lower extremities. The device is inserted across a fracture site to provide mechanical compression, facilitating bone healing. It is intended for use by surgeons in clinical settings during orthopedic procedures. The device functions as a mechanical fastener to stabilize bone segments; it does not involve electronic, software, or algorithmic components. The primary benefit is the stabilization of fusions, fractures, or osteotomies to support patient recovery.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

Technological Characteristics

Metallic bone fixation fastener; manufactured from stainless steel per ASTM F-899. Mechanical device; no energy source, software, or connectivity.

Indications for Use

Indicated for fusions, fractures, or osteotomies of the upper and lower extremities in patients requiring internal bone fixation.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.
