## Intended Use

The Shoulder Nail Plate of the Shoulder Fixation System is intended for fractures and fracture dislocations, osteotomies, and non-unions of the proximal Humerus.

## Device Story

Shoulder Nail Plate is a metallic bone fixation device for proximal humerus fractures; consists of a plate segment for attachment to the humeral metaphysis and a nail segment for insertion into the humeral diaphysis; provides stabilization of fractures, fracture dislocations, osteotomies, and non-unions. Used by surgeons in clinical settings to fix bone segments; device design is bilaterally symmetric for use in either left or right humerus. Benefits include mechanical stabilization of bone to facilitate healing.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Metallic bone fixation appliance; fabricated from stainless steel meeting ASTM F 138-03 standards; bilaterally symmetric design; plate and nail segments.

## Regulatory 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.

Re: K052294 Trade/Device Name: Shoulder Nail Plate Regulation Number: 21 CFR 888.3030 Regulation Name: Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories Regulatory Class: II Product Code: HRS Dated: August 19, 2005 Received: August 30, 2005

Dear Mr. Hernandez:

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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
