Intended Use

Intramedullary Hip Screws are indicated for intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck; trochanteric or subtrochanteric fractures; osteotomies for patients with diseases or deformities of the hip; hip arthrodesis; supracondylar fractures and distal femoral fractures using a supracondylar plate; ipsilateral femoral shaft/neck fractures; intertrochanteric fractures; femoral neck fractures; subcapital fractures; comminuted neck and shaft fractures; femur reconstruction following tumor resection; leg length discrepancies secondary to femoral inequality; and prophylactic nailing of impending pathologic fractures. Asian Intramedullary Hip Screws and accessories are for single use only.

Device Story

Intramedullary hip screw system for proximal femur fracture management. Device consists of intramedullary nails (various diameters, lengths, neck-shaft angles; 4-degree medio-lateral bend for trochanteric insertion) and accessories (sliding/subtrochanteric lag screws, centering sleeves, set screws, compression screws, nail caps). Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/surgical settings to provide internal fixation for femoral fractures and reconstructions. Device provides mechanical stabilization of bone segments to facilitate healing. Single-use only.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only; no clinical data provided.

Technological Characteristics

Metallic bone fixation appliance. Includes intramedullary nails with medio-lateral bend and various lag screw options. Principle of operation is mechanical fixation identical to predicate devices.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients with femoral fractures (intracapsular, trochanteric, subtrochanteric, supracondylar, distal, shaft, neck, subcapital, comminuted), hip deformities/diseases requiring osteotomy, hip arthrodesis, femur reconstruction post-tumor resection, leg length discrepancies, and prophylactic nailing for impending pathologic fractures.

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.

• Smith & Nephew Trauma Internal Fixation System (K993289)
• TriGen Internation System (K040212)

#### Device Description:

ray

Intramedullary Hip Screws and accessories provide an intramedullary approach to the management of fractures of the proximal femur. Devices include intramedullary nails with various diameters, lengths and neck shaft angles. The long nails are available in a right or left hand configuration. Each nail includes a 4 " medio-lateral bend to allow for greater trochanteric insertion. Each nail is used with a choice of specially designed sliding lag screws or subtrochanteric lag screws in various lengths. Additional accessories are available such as a centering sleeve, a set screw, a compression screw and nail caps.

#### Intended Use:

Smith & Nephew, Inc. Asian Intramedullary Hip Screws are indicated for intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck, trochanteric or subtrochanteric fractures; osteotomies for patients with directures on deformities of the hip; hip arthrodesis; supracondylar fractures and distal femoral fractures using a supracondylar plate; ipsilateral femoral shaft/neck fractures; intertrochanteric fractures; femoral neck fractures; subcapital fractures; comminuted neck and shaft fractures; femur reconstruction following; tumor resection; leg length discrepancies secondary to femoral inequality; and prophylactic nailing of impending pathologic fractures. Asian Intramedullary Hip Screws and accessories are for single use only.

#### Technological Characteristics:

The principle of operation of the subject devices is identical to that of the predicates. There are no changes in intended use, performance specifications or method of operation. A review of the test data for the subject devices indicates that they are equivalent to the predicate devices currently in clinical use and are capable of withstanding expected in vivo loading without failure.

#### Substantial Equivalence Information:

Substantial equivalence for the Asian Intramedullary Hip Screw is based on its similarities in indications for use, design features, operational principles, and material composition when compared to the predicate devices cleared under the following submissions: K040656, Smith & Nephew In the production K993289, Smith & Nephew Trauma Internal Fixation System; K040212, TriGen Internation System; and K952697, Ti Classic Compression Hip Screw.
