Intended Use
The AOS Small Bone Nail System is intended for fixation of fractures and osteotomies of the fibula, radius and ulna, including fractures where the medullary canal is narrow or flexibility of the implant is paramount.
Device Story
AOS Small Bone Nailing System consists of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) intramedullary nails (110mm-260mm length; 2.5mm-5.0mm diameter) and cortical locking screws (3.5mm and 2.7mm). Used by orthopedic surgeons for fracture fixation and osteotomies of the fibula, radius, and ulna. Implanted into the medullary canal to provide structural stability. System provides mechanical fixation to facilitate bone healing. Longer cortical screws offer increased bone engagement compared to predicates. Device is purely mechanical; no software or electronic components.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Comparative mechanical testing performed per ASTM F1264-14 (four-point bend test) demonstrated performance substantially equivalent to predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
Material: Titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V). Dimensions: 110mm-260mm length, 2.5mm-5.0mm diameter. Fixation: 2.7mm and 3.5mm cortical locking screws. Mechanical testing per ASTM F1264-14. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for fixation of fractures and osteotomies of the fibula, radius, and ulna, particularly in cases with narrow medullary canals or where implant flexibility is required.
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.

Dear Alex Bhaskarla:
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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

| SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE: | Information presented supports substantial equivalence of the AOS Small Bone Nail System to the predicate devices. The proposed system has the same indications for use, is similar in shape and design, and has the same fundamental technology. |
|------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| BASIS FOR SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE: | The AOS Small Bone Nailing System has the |
AOS Small Bone Nailing System has the following similarities to the predicates:
- same device classification ●
- same lengths
- same material .
- same anatomical sites
- same intended use ●
- same biocompatibility
- same shaft diameter
- same locking screw diameters ●
The AOS Small Bone Nailing System has longer cortical screws. Longer screw lengths provide more engagement with the bone. Mechanically, the subject nail proved stronger than the predicate device used for testing.
- PRECLINICAL TESTING: The AOS Small Bone Nail System was subjected to comparative mechanical testing per a four point bend test based on ASTM F1264-14. The results demonstrate that the AOS Small Bone Nail are substantially equivalent to the predicates.
- STANDARDS: Recognized industry standards are cited in the Standards Report
- CLINICAL DATA: There is no clinical data referenced in this 510(k)
PERFORMANCE TESTING
No performance standards applicable to this device have been adopted under Section 514 of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. Performance testing of the AOS Small Bone Nail System was conducted in accordance with various international standards and internal AOS methods.
