Surgeon implants device to stabilize bone fragments; locking screws create internal fixator construct. Used in clinical/surgical settings. Output is mechanical stabilization of bone; aids healing by maintaining alignment. Benefits patient through restoration of skeletal integrity. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Static and dynamic system tests performed representing worst-case clinical scenarios. Screw testing conducted per ASTM F543-13. Results demonstrate mechanical performance meets pre-defined acceptance criteria. ## Technological Characteristics Metallic bone fixation system. Materials: Ti6Al4V (ASTM F136/ISO 5832-3) and unalloyed Titanium (ASTM F67/ISO 5832-2). Includes various plates (Volar, Straight, L-Plate, Ulna, Hook) and 2.5mm cortical screws. Mechanical performance validated via ASTM F543-13. ## 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 - Synthes (USA) Variable Angle LCP Dorsal Distal Radius System ([K102694](/device/K102694.md)) - Synthes (USA) LCP Diaphyeal-Metaphyseal (Dia-Meta) Volar Distal Radius Plate ([K070946](/device/K070946.md)) - Synthes (USA) VA LCP Two-Column Volar Distal Radius Plates ([K083694](/device/K083694.md)) - Medartis AG APTUS Ulna Plates ([K103332](/device/K103332.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
