The system can be used in both adult and pediatric patients. ## Device Story The ORTHOLOC® Calcaneal Plating System is a metallic bone fixation system used by orthopedic surgeons for foot and ankle reconstruction, fracture stabilization, and joint fusion. The system comprises two plate styles (Tab and Perimeter) and 3.5mm diameter locking and non-locking screws (10-60mm). Tab plates feature adjustable/cuttable tabs; Perimeter plates feature removable sections to accommodate patient anatomy. The hole design allows screw insertion from either side, enabling universal left/right orientation. The device is implanted during surgery to provide mechanical stability to bone segments, facilitating healing. It functions as a traditional orthopedic fixation implant; no software or AI components are involved. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by non-clinical mechanical testing, including static bend testing and screw-through-plate testing, demonstrating performance equivalent or superior to predicate devices. ## Technological Characteristics Metallic bone fixation system consisting of plates and 3.5mm locking/non-locking screws. Features adjustable/cuttable tabs and removable sections for anatomical fit. Universal left/right orientation. Sterilization method is identical to predicate devices. No software or electronic components. ## 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. ## Predicate Devices - DARCO® Locking Bone Plate System ([K061808](/device/K061808.md)) - ORTHOLOC® Ankle Plating System ([K091243](/device/K091243.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

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. 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. Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set {1}------------------------------------------------ Page 2 - Ms. Jeanine Redden forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
