Intended Use
The Hip Fracture Nail System is intended to treat stable and unstable proximal fractures of the femur including pertrochanteric fractures, intertrochanteric fractures, high subtrochanteric fractures and combinations of these fractures, including non-union, malunion and tumor resections. The Long Nail system is additionally indicated to treat pertrochanteric fractures associated with shaft fractures, pathologic fractures in osteoporotic bone (including prophylactic use) of the trochanteric and diaphyseal areas, impending pathological fractures, long subtrochanteric fractures, ipsilateral femoral fractures, proximal or distal non-unions, malunions, revision procedures and tumor resections.
Device Story
Intramedullary fixation system consisting of titanium alloy nail, lag screw, distal screws, and end cap; used for stabilization of proximal femoral fractures. Implanted by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/surgical settings. Device provides mechanical support to fractured bone segments to facilitate healing. Output is physical fixation of bone; clinical decision-making based on radiographic assessment of fracture type and patient bone health. Benefits include stabilization of complex fractures and restoration of structural integrity.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Cyclical mechanical testing performed to compare maximum load to failure against predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
Titanium alloy intramedullary nail system. Includes lag screw, distal screws, and end cap. Available in 125° and 130° angles, 9-15mm distal diameters, and 180-460mm lengths. Mechanical fixation device.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with stable/unstable proximal femur fractures, including pertrochanteric, intertrochanteric, and high subtrochanteric fractures; non-union; malunion; tumor resections; shaft fractures; pathologic fractures in osteoporotic bone; impending pathological fractures; ipsilateral femoral fractures; and revision procedures.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An intramedullary fixation rod is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a rod made of alloys such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel. It is inserted into the medullary (bone marrow) canal of long bones for the fixation of fractures.

Hip Fracture Nail System Proprietary Name:
Intramedullary Fixation Rod Common Name:
Rod, Fixation, Intramedullary and accessories (21 CFR § Classification Name: 888.3020)
- The Hip Fracture Nail System is substantially equivalent to Predicate Devices: currently marketed devices: Trochanteric Nail System (K042325) and Gamma3 Nail System (K043431).
Device Description: The Hip Fracture Nail System consists of an intramedullary nail, lag screw, distal screws, end cap and optional antirotation screw all manufactured from titanium allov and used to treat fractures in the proximal portion of the femur. The system offers 125° and 130° angle nails with 9-15mm distal diameters and a 180-460mm length range.
Indications for Use: The Hip Fracture Nail System is intended to treat stable and unstable proximal fractures of the femur including pertrochanteric fractures, intertrochanteric fractures, high subtrochanteric fractures and combinations of these fractures. including non-union, malunion and tumor resections. The Long Nail system is additionally indicated to treat pertrochanteric fractures associated with shaft fractures, pathologic fractures in osteoporotic bone (including prophylactic use) of the trochanteric and diaphyseal areas. impending pathological fractures, long subtrochanteric fractures, ipsilateral femoral fractures, proximal or distal nonunions, malunions, revision procedures and turnor resections.

| Technological<br>Characteristics: | The technological characteristics of the Hip Fracture Nail<br>System are similar to the predicate devices including design<br>and material. The Hip Fracture Nail system and predicate<br>systems are manufactured from titanium alloy. Dimensional<br>characteristics are similar among the systems including<br>proximal and distal nail diameters, nail angles and lengths.<br>In addition to the material, the screws are similarly<br>comparable in major and minor OD and length. |
|-------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Summary of<br>Substantial<br>Equivalence: | The Hip Fracture Nail System is substantially equivalent to<br>currently marketed devices as demonstrated with pre-clinical<br>data. Cyclical testing demonstrated that the new Hip<br>Fracture Nail System achieved higher maximum loads prior<br>to failure when compared to both predicate devices<br>successfully meeting the pre-defined acceptance criteria. No<br>new issues of safety or efficacy have been raised. |
