Intended Use
The Large Screws range is intended for the fixation of bone fractures, fusions and osteotomies of foot and ankle as well as medium and large bone fragments including radius, humerus, femur, tibia in adults.
Device Story
Large Screws range consists of metallic bone fixation fasteners; used for fracture fixation, fusions, and osteotomies in foot, ankle, and long bones (radius, humerus, femur, tibia). Implants are cannulated, self-tapping, and available in partially or totally threaded configurations. Provided either non-sterile for healthcare professional sterilization or sterile via gamma radiation. Operated by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/surgical settings. Output is mechanical stabilization of bone fragments; aids healing by maintaining alignment during bone union. Benefits patient through restoration of skeletal stability.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by non-clinical bench testing, including comparative torsional tests, pullout engineering analysis, and driving torque tests.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V ELI (ASTM F 136-12a/ISO 5832-3). Design: Cannulated, self-tapping, partially or totally threaded. Energy source: None (mechanical). Sterilization: Gamma or user-sterilized. Form factor: Various diameters and lengths for bone fixation.
Indications for Use
Indicated for fixation of bone fractures, pseudarthroses, fusions, and osteotomies of foot and ankle, and medium/large bone fragments (radius, humerus, femur, tibia) in adults.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.
