Intended Use
The T2 Tibial Nailing System is intended to provide temporary stabilization of various types of fractures, malunion and nonunion of the tibia. The nails are inserted using an opened or closed technique and can be statically, dynamically and compressed locked. The T2 Tibial Nailing System is indicated for long bone fracture fixation, specifically tibial fracture fixation, which may include the following: - Open and closed tibial fractures - Pseudoarthodosis and correction osteotomy - Pathologic fractures, impending pathologic fractures, and tumor resections - Nonunion and malunion
Device Story
T2 Tibial Nailing System provides temporary stabilization for tibial fractures, nonunions, and malunions. System includes titanium intramedullary nails (proximal, standard, distal designs) and targeting device accessories. Used by surgeons in clinical settings via open or closed surgical techniques. Nails are statically, dynamically, or compression locked using associated screws and end caps. Targeting device facilitates accurate nail placement. System benefits patients by providing structural support for bone healing. No software or AI components involved.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence established via non-clinical laboratory testing including stiffness, bending load, transferable torque, impulse, drop, and cadaveric testing.
Technological Characteristics
Titanium intramedullary nails; proximal, standard, and distal designs. Includes targeting device accessories. Mechanical fixation via locking screws, compression screws, and end caps. Sterile. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for long bone fracture fixation, specifically tibial fracture fixation, including open/closed tibial fractures, pseudoarthrosis, correction osteotomy, pathologic fractures, impending pathologic fractures, tumor resections, nonunion, and malunion.
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.

# Description
This Traditional 510(k) submission is being supplied to the US FDA to include a modified targeter device and its components as Class II accessories as part of the Suprapatellar Instrument (SPI) System included in the T2 Tibial Nailing System, previously cleared under K003018 as the Titan Tibial Nail. The T2 Tibial Nailing System was determined substantially equivalent via 510/k) K003018 and included tibial nails and associated accessories such as locking screws. compression screws and end caps. There are three nail designs for the T2 Tibial Nail: Proximal. Standard, and Distal. These T2 tibial nails are fabricated from titanium and are available sterile. The T2 tibia targeter devices are intended to be used as part of the T2 Tibial Nailing System. In addition, this submission addresses a modification made to some components of the targeting device.
### Intended Use
The T2 Tibial Nailing System is intended to provide temporary stabilization of various types of fractures, malunion, and nonunion of the tibia. The nails are inserted using an opened or closed technique and can be statically, dynamically, and compression locked.

# Indications
The T2 Tibial Nailing System is intended to provide temporary stabilization of various types of fractures, malunion and nonunion of the tibia. The nails are inserted using an opened or closed technique and can be statically, dynamically and compressed locked.
The T2 Tibial Nailing System is indicated for long bone fracture fixation. specifically tibial fracture fixation, which may include the following:
- o Open and closed tibial fractures
- · Pseudoarthodosis and correction osteotomy
- Pathologic fractures, impending pathologic fractures, and tumor resections .
- Nonunion and malunion .
## Summary of Technologies
The subject device is substantially equivalent in intended use, materials and performance characteristics to the predicate devices. Inclusion of the targeter device and its components as accessories to the T2 Tibial Nailing System does not alter the device technology.
# Non-Clinical Testing
Non-clinical laboratory testing was performed on the targeting device and its components to determine substantial equivalence. Testing demonstrated that the subject targeter device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device currently cleared for marketing. The following testing was performed:
- Stiffness Testing .
- Bending Load o
- o Transferable Torque of Connections
- . Trunsferable Torque between Nail and Nail Adapter
- 0 Impulse Test
- . Drop Test
- o Cadaveric Testing
## Clinical Testing
Clinical testing was not required for this submission.
### Conclusion
The T2 Tibial Nailing System and its components are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices identified in this premarket notification.
