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.

NCB plate holes allow for polyaxial screw placement (30° cone) with subsequent screw locking, the screws can act as lag screws and be used for fracture reduction. In the locked mode, the plates act as an internal fixator without contact between the plate and the risk of periosteal blood supply impairment. An additional extension tuberculum minus plate can be assembled to the humeral plate with cerclage wire technique for fixation of anteroposterior (AP) tuberculum minus fractures. NCB femoral, humeral and tibial plates, cortical, cancellous and cannulated screws, locking cap, blind screw inserts and spacers are made from titanium alloy Protasul®-64 (Ti-6Al-4V - ISO 5832-3/ASTM F136). The tuberculum minus plate is made from cpTi (ISO 5832-2/ASTM F67), cortical screws from titanium alloy Protasul-100 (Ti-6Al-7Nb ISO 5832-11/ASTM F1295) and the cerclage wire from 1.4441 stainless steel Protasul-S (ISO 5832-1/ASTM F138-F139). NCB® Periprosthetic Femur Plate System The NCB (Non-Contact-Bridging) Periprosthetic Femur Plate System is a line of polyaxial locking plates for the treatment of femoral fractures, particularly of periprosthetic femoral fractures. The system consists of Proximal Femur Plates, Curved Shaft Plates, Trochanter Plates and a Connection Screw. The NCB System technology allows for polyaxial screw placement (30° cone) with screw locking achieved with the use of locking caps that are threaded into the locked mode the NCB Periprosthetic Plate acts as an internal fixator without contact between the bone suface, reducing the risk of periosteal blood supply impairment. This Non-Contact Bridging concept can be specifically controlled through the use of 1, 2, or 3 mm spacers, which are threaded into the plate holes prior to plate insertion. Additionally, within this system, the NCB Periprosthetic Trochanter Plates used in combination with the NCB Periprosthetic Proximal Femur Plates for the treatment of proximal femoral fractures, which includes greater trochanter fractures and osteotomies. The Connection Screw for NCB Periprosthetic Trochanter Plate is used to attach the Proximal Femur Plate. The NCB Periprosthetic Trochanter Plates contain threaded conical holes which allow for monoaxial screw placement using locking screws with threaded heads. Non-locking cortical screws can also be used. The NCB Periprosthetic Proximal Femur Plates are available in five lengths (Length=245mm, 324mm, 363mm, 401mm) which can be used either as standalone implants or in combination with the NCB Periprosthetic Trochanter Plates. The NCB Periprosthetic Proximal Femur Plate short (Length=115 mm) is used only in combination with the NCB Periprosthetic Trochanter Plates. The NCB Curved Shaft Plates are also included in the NCB Periprosthetic Femur Plate System and are specifically designed for the femur. The Proximal Femur Plates, Distal Femur Plates, Trochanter Plates and Connection Screw are made of a titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V (Protasul®-64WF) ISO 5832-3). NCB Cable Button for NCB Polyaxial Locking Plate The NCB (Non-Contact-Bridging) Cable Button for NCB Polyaxial Locking Plate is a temporary internal fixation component used in conjunction with Zimmer Biomet NCB Polyaxial Locking Plate System Cerclage Cables. The Cable Button is threaded into a vacant screw hole of the Zimmer Biomet NCB Polyaxial Locking Plate System and provides a positioning point for a Cerclage Cable. The Cable Button is made of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V (Protasul®-64WF) ISO 5832-3) and has a color anodization (Type III). NCB Straight Narrow Shaft Plate The NCB (Non-Contact-Bridging) Straight Narrow Shaft Plate is a line of polyaxial locking plates for the treatment of humeral and tibial shaft fractures, including periprosthetic fractures. The NCB System technology allows for polyaxial screw placement (30° cone) with screw locking achieved with the use of locking caps that are threaded into the locked mode the NCB Straight Narrow Shaft Plate acts as an internal fixator without contact between the plate and the risk of periosteal blood supply impairment. This Non-Contact-Bridging concept can be specifically controlled through the use of 1, 2, or 3 mm spacers, which are threaded into the plate holes prior to plate insertion. The NCB Straight Narrow Shaft Plate is made of Titanium alloy [Ti6Al4V (Protasul®-64WF) ISO 5832-3]. # Intended Use/Indications for Use # 21 CFR 807.92(a)(5) ### NCB® Polyaxial Locking Plate System: The NCB Polyaxial Locking Plate System is internal fixation and stabilization of distal femoral (NCB DF), proximal humeral (NCB PH), and proximal tibial (NCB PT) fractures and osteotomies.
