• Product Code: DZL · Dental
• Decision Date: Jan 16, 2002
• Decision: SESE
• Submission Type: Traditional
• Regulation: 21 CFR 872.4880

• Attributes: Therapeutic

Intended Use

Indicated for use in trauma and reconstructive procedures in the midface and craniofacial skeleton, including, but not limited to, comminuted fractures of the nasoethmoidal and infraorbital areas, comminuted fractures of the frontal sinus wall and midfacial fractures, and reconstructive procedures of the midface or craniofacial skeleton. The OsteoMed Bioresorbable Fixation System is not intended for use in and is contraindicated for: the mandible and/or full load bearing procedures; in cases of active or suspected infection or in patients who are immunocompromised; in cases where there is limitation of the blood supply or inadequate volume or quality of bone to place the system securely; in patients exhibiting disorders which would cause the patient to ignore the limitations of rigid fixation.

Device Story

Bioresorbable fixation system for midface and craniofacial trauma/reconstruction; comprises plates, meshes, and screws. Plates/meshes (0.5mm-1.2mm thick); screws (1.6mm diameter, 4.0mm-8.0mm length); safety screws (2.0mm diameter, 4.0mm-8.0mm length). Implanted by surgeons in clinical settings to stabilize bone fractures. Device provides temporary rigid fixation during healing; material resorbs over time. Benefits include elimination of secondary removal surgery for hardware.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on design and material similarity to legally marketed predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: 70:30 poly L/D,L-lactide. Components: plates, meshes (0.5-1.2mm), screws (1.6mm, 2.0mm). Mechanical fixation system. Non-metallic, bioresorbable.

Indications for Use

Indicated for trauma and reconstructive procedures of midface and craniofacial skeleton. Contraindicated for: mandible, full load-bearing procedures, active/suspected infection, immunocompromised patients, inadequate blood supply/bone quality, or patients unable to follow rigid fixation limitations.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An intraosseous fixation screw or wire is a metal device intended to be inserted into fractured jaw bone segments to prevent their movement.

Device Proprietary Name: OsteoMed Bioresorbable Fixation System Plating System Device Common Name: HRS. Plate, Fixation, Bone Classification Name: OsteoMed Corporation Name of Submitter: 3750 Realty Road Addison, Texas 75001 Phone: [phone] Fax: [phone] Dawn T.

Summary:

This submission describes the OsteoMed Bioresorbable Fixation System indicated for use in trauma and reconstructive procedures in the midface and craniofacial skeleton, including, but not limited to, comminuted fractures of the nasoethmoidal and infraorbital areas. comminuted fractures of the frontal sinus wall and midfacial fractures, and reconstructive procedures of the midface or craniofacial skeleton. This system is not intended for use in the mandible and/or full load bearing procedures.

The OsteoMed Bioresorbable Fixation System is comprised of various plates, meshes and screws. Plates and meshes, 0.5mm through 1.2mm thick, are provided in various shapes and sizes. Screws are provided in 1.6mm diameter in lengths of 4.0mm through 8.0mm. Safety screws are 2.0mm diameter in lengths of 4.0mm through 8.0mm. The implanted components of the device are manufactured from 70:30 poly L/D,L-lactide.

Equivalence for this device is based on similarities in intended use, material, design and operational principle to the Macropore Protective Sheet (K972913), the Synthes Resorbable Fixation System (K974554) and the Stryker Leibinger Resorbable Fixation System (K993061).

Due to the similarity of materials and design to both pre-enactment and postenactment devices, OsteoMed believes that the OsteoMed Bioresorbable Fixation System does not raise any new safety or effectiveness issues.
