Intended Use

The VAN Hip Fracture System is indicated for fixation of fractures of the femur, including intertrochanteric fractures, pertrochanteric fractures, subtrochanteric fractures and combinations of these fractures, pathological fractures in both diaphyseal and trochanteric areas, and nonunion or malunion

Device Story

VAN Hip Fracture System is an intramedullary fixation device for femoral fractures. Components include short and long intramedullary nails, lag screws, and distal locking cortical bone screws. Features an angle adjust mechanism to accommodate anatomical variations in femoral neck angle. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/surgical settings to stabilize fractures. Provides mechanical fixation to facilitate bone healing.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Static and dynamic mechanical testing performed per ASTM F384 to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

Technological Characteristics

Intramedullary fixation rod system. Materials: Metallic. Testing standard: ASTM F384. Features: Short/long intramedullary nails, lag screws, distal locking cortical bone screws, adjustable neck/shaft angle mechanism.

Indications for Use

Indicated for fixation of femoral fractures including intertrochanteric, pertrochanteric, subtrochanteric, and combinations thereof; pathological fractures in diaphyseal and trochanteric areas; and nonunion or 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.

### Indications For Use:

The VAN Hip Fracture System is indicated for fixation of fractures of the femur, including intertrochanteric fractures, pertrochanteric fractures, subtrochanteric fractures and combinations of these fractures, pathological fractures in both diaphyseal and trochanteric areas, and nonunion or malunion

### Device Description:

The VAN Hip Fracture System includes short and long intramedullary nails, lag screws and distal locking cortical bone screws. The nail contains an angle adjust feature that allows for the neck/shaft angle to be adjusted to accommodate anatomical variations in the femoral neck angle.

## Predicate Device:

The VAN Hip Fracture System is substantially equivalent to the Stryker Howmedica Osteonics Gamma 3 Nail System (K032244), Biomet Vari-Angle Hip Screw (VHS) System (K964880), and Disc-O-Tech Fixion Nail (K010988).

{1}------------------------------------------------

# Preclinical Testing:

Static and dynamic mechanical testing was performed on the VAN Hip Fracture System in accordance with ASTM F384, Standard Specifications and Test Methods for Metallic Angled Orthopedic Fracture Fixation Devices. The results demonstrate that the VAN Hip Fracture System is substantially equivalent to a predicate device in side-by-side testing.
