Regulatory Classification
Identification
Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.

Dear Christine Scifert:
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.

Device Description: The In2Bones CoLink® 2 Plating System is a system of plates and screws and surgical instruments used to treat fractures and reconstruction of the extremities. These subject devices are part of the overarching CoLink® Plating System and will be commonly referred to as the CoLink® 2 Plating System. In addition, a washer is being added to the CoLink® Afx Plating System.
#### Indications for Use:
CoLink® 2 Plating System
The In2Bones USA, CoLink® Plating System/CoLink® View Plating System/CoLink ® Mini Plating System is indicated for stabilization and fixation of fractures, revision procedures, joint fusion, osteotomies and reconstruction of the small bones in the hand, wrist, foot and ankle in both pediatric and adult patients.
{4}------------------------------------------------
## CoLink® Afx Plating System
The In2Bones USA, CoLink® Afx Plating System is indication and fixation of fractures and osteotomies in the ankle, including tibia and fibula, in both pediatric and adult patients.
The In2Bones USA CoLink® Afx Plating System screws are intended to be used as stand-alone bone screws, or in a plate-screw system for fracture fixation.
Substantial Equivalence: The subject components were demonstrated to be substantially equivalent to the following systems previously cleared by the FDA:
Primary Predicate
- K163293 In2Bones CoLink® Plating System .
Additional Predicates
- K172300 In2Bones CoLink® View Plating System .
- K181113 In2Bones CoLink® Afx Plating System ●
- K170518 In2Bones Fracture and Correction System ●
- K200762 - In2Bones CoLink® Cfx Plating System
The subject CoLink® Plating System is made of Titanium Alloy and has been demonstrated to be substantially equivalent to the previously cleared devices identified above as the products are similar in indications, materials and geometry.
Performance Testing: No additional mechanical testing was required for the CoLink® 2 Plating System. The 3.0mm screws are nearly identical to previously cleared screws and no new worst-case plates or screws were added. A rationale was conducted related to the CoLink® Plating four-point bend testing per ASTM F382 to show the subject plates are substantially equivalent to the predicate plates. A rationale was conducted related to the plate screws of the predicate CoLink® system for axial pullout, torque capacity and insertion torque characteristics per ASTM F543. The CoLink® 2 Plating System components and CoLink® Afx washers are not considered a worst case for sterilization, biocompatibility, shelf life and pyrogenicity and were adopted into the previous validations for the CoLink® Afx System (K181113). An assessment was conducted regarding MR environment and labeling, including RF induced heating simulation, and it was determined that the CoLink® 2 components are not considered a worst case compared to K163293. Bacterial endotoxin testing (LAL) is performed on each lot.
#### Conclusion
Based on the test results and the comparison to the predicate devices, the subject device is determined to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
