## Intended Use

The Gotfried PH (Physiological Hip) Nail is intended for fractured bone stabilization, fixation, and management of trochanteric (intertrochanteric and pertrochanteric), subtrochanteric, and base of neck fractures of the proximal femur.

## Device Story

The Gotfried PH (Physiological Hip) Nail is an intramedullary nail system designed for the surgical management of proximal femoral fractures. The device consists of a nail, two proximal dynamic femoral neck screws, and two distal locking bolts. It is implanted by a surgeon in an operating room setting to provide internal fixation and stabilization of fractured bone segments. By utilizing dynamic screws and locking bolts, the device facilitates fracture management, potentially promoting healing and restoring structural integrity to the proximal femur. The device is intended for prescription use only.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence is based on technological characteristics and design comparisons to predicate devices.

## Technological Characteristics

Intramedullary nail system constructed of stainless steel. Incorporates two proximal dynamic femoral neck screws and two distal locking bolts. Design utilizes standard orthopedic fixation principles for proximal femoral fractures.

## Regulatory Identification

An intramedullary fixation rod is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a rod made of alloys such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel. It is inserted into the medullary (bone marrow) canal of long bones for the fixation of fractures.
