## Intended Use

The subject T2 Recon Nail System is a fracture fixation device comprised of Femoral Nails, Locking Screws, Set Screws, End Caps, and Lag Screws. The subject and predicate devices are intended to provide strong and stable internal fracture fixation while minimizing soft tissue irritation. This device is utilized as an aid to healing, not as a substitute for normal intact bone and tissue. The T2 Recon Nail indications include fixation of subtrochanteric, interochanteric, ipsilateral neck/shaft, communited proximal femoral shaft fractures, femoral fixation required as a result of pathological disease, and temporary stabilization of fractures of the femoral shaft ranging from the femoral neck to the supracondylar regions of the femur.

## Device Story

The T2 Recon Nail System is an intramedullary (IM) nail device used for femoral fracture fixation. It consists of femoral nails, locking screws, set screws, end caps, and lag screws. The device is implanted by a surgeon in an operating room to provide internal stabilization of bone fractures, acting as an aid to healing. It is not intended to replace normal bone or tissue. The system is a line extension of the existing T2 Recon Nail System, utilizing similar materials and mechanical properties to achieve fracture stability.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

The device is constructed from titanium alloy and PEEK. It functions as an intramedullary fixation rod. No software or electronic components are involved.

## 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.
