Intended Use

The TriMed Radiocarpal Fusion System plates and screws are intended for wrist arthrodesis and fixation of fractures of other small bones.

Device Story

The TriMed Radiocarpal Fusion System consists of metallic bone plates and screws designed for surgical immobilization of the wrist (arthrodesis) and fixation of small bone fractures. The system includes plates of varying lengths and bend angles, compatible with both locking and non-locking screws (2.7 mm and 3.2 mm diameters). Surgeons implant the device in an operating room setting to stabilize bone segments. The device provides mechanical support to facilitate bone healing. It does not involve electronic components, software, or automated analysis.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Mechanical testing, including static bending loads, was performed to verify safety and functionality.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: ASTM F138/139 stainless steel or ASTM F136 titanium alloy. Components: Bone plates and screws (2.7 mm and 3.2 mm diameters). Design: Locking and non-locking screw configurations. Mechanical fixation principle.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring wrist arthrodesis or fixation of fractures of small bones.

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.

made of either ASTM F138/139 implant grade stainless steel or ASTM F136 implant grade Titanium alloy.

Substantial Equivalence:

Theoretical calculations and mechanical tests in the form of static bending loads have been performed to verify the safety and functionality of the device. Results demonstrate that the physical properties of the TriMed Radiocarpal Fusion Plating System are substantially equivalent to the predicated devices. The new product does not change the intended use or scientific principles used for safe and effective implantation of the device

Dear Mr. Steinberger:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
