- Device Description: The Sonoma Fibula Repair System includes all implants and instruments required for the fixation of fibula fractures and osteotomies. The Sonoma Fibula Repair System includes the Sonoma Fibula Rod, Sonoma Bone Screws, End Cap and related instruments. Sonoma's Fibula Rod differs from traditional nails or rods as it utilizes Sonoma's ActivLoc® fixation gripper system at the proximal end of the rod to allow for proximal fixation without the use of screws. The implants are composed of 316 stainless steel per ASTM F138.
#### Indications for Use: The Sonoma Fibula Repair System is intended for use in the fixation of fibula fractures and osteotomies.
- Substantial Equivalence: The intended use of the subject device is the same as the Acumed predicate devices. The indications for use for the subject device is limited to the fibula as opposed to additional anatomical locations for the Acumed predicate devices. There are no changes to the subject components or accessories compared to the predicate Sonoma Fibula Repair System (K142945). Thus, the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
- Performance Testing: No performance testing was performed associated with the additional indication of osteotomies for the Sonoma Fibular Rod System.
