Intended Use
The Distal Volar Radius Anatomical Plate System is intended for the fixation of fractures and osteotomies involving the distal radius.
Device Story
Distal Volar Radius Anatomical Plate System is an orthopedic implant set for distal radius fracture and osteotomy fixation. System includes titanium plates (Distal Volar Plates, Distal Dorsal Nail Plate), pegs, and screws. Provided in a sterilization tray with reusable instruments (peg drivers) and non-reusable instruments (F.A.S.T. Guide Technology drill guide, drill bits). Used by surgeons in clinical/OR settings to stabilize bone segments during healing. Device functions as a mechanical fixation system; no electronic or software components.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by pre-clinical testing.
Technological Characteristics
Metallic bone fixation system. Materials: Titanium meeting ASTM F 136-96. Components: Plates, pegs, screws. Includes drill guides and bits. Sterilization tray provided.
Indications for Use
Indicated for fixation of fractures and osteotomies of the distal radius.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.

| | Proprietary Name | Common or Usual Name |
| | Distal Volar Radius Anatomical Plate System | Plate Fixation Bone |
| Name of<br>Predicate<br>Devices | The device is substantially equivalent to:<br>• Distal Volar Radius Plate System (510(k) # K032705 – October 1, 2003) – Hand<br>Innovations, Inc. | |
| Classification | Class II. | |
| Performance<br>Standards | Performance standards have not been established by the FDA under section 514 of<br>the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. | |
| Indications for<br>Use | The Distal Volar Radius Anatomical Plate System is intended for the fixation of<br>fractures and osteotomies involving the distal radius. | |
| Device<br>Description | The modified Distal Volar Radius Anatomical Plate System is a set of orthopedic<br>plates and fasteners supplied in a sterilization tray together with several reusable and<br>disposable tools. The set of orthopedic plates and fasteners provided in the<br>sterilization tray consists of the following implantable devices:<br>• Distal Volar Plates<br>• Distal Dorsal Nail Plate<br>• Pegs<br>• Screws.<br>Included in the sterilization tray are the following re-useable instruments:<br>• Peg drivers<br>• Other standard surgical tools.<br>In addition, the following are non-reusable instruments included in the sterilization<br>tray:<br>• F.A.S.T. Guide Technology Drill Guide; and<br>• Drill bits | |
| Biocompati-<br>bility | The implantable components of the Distal Volar Radius Anatomical Plate System<br>and instruments do not require biocompatibility testing because the titanium used in<br>fabrications meets the requirements of ASTM F 136-96. | |
| Summary of<br>Substantial<br>Equivalence | The modified Distal Volar Radius Anatomical Plate System is substantially<br>equivalent to the predicate Distal Volar Radius Repair System. The equivalence was<br>confirmed through pre-clinical testing. | |
