#### DEVICE NAME:
Trade Name: Common name: Classification name: Titanium TELEGRAPH® HUMERAL NAIL Humeral Nail Intramedullary Rod
#### PREDICATE DEVICES:
Titanium TELEGRAPH® HUMERAL NAIL Fournitures Hospitalieres Industrie K042332
TELEGRAPH® HUMERAL NAIL. Fournitures Hospitalieres Industrie K033510
#### DEVICE DESCRIPTION :
The Titanium Telegraph® Humeral Nail is designed to be inserted in the proximal extremity of the humerus. It is made of titanium (according to ASTM 136) and is available in two models: the short humeral nail (150mm) and the long humeral nail (from 210 to 310mm). All models are available in three diameters (7, 8, 9 and 10mm). These two Humeral Nail are intended to be used with cancellous screws and selfthreating cortical cotter screws, supplied by FH Industrie.
This special 510(k) is being submitted to propose clearance of the titanium selfthreating cortical cotter screws intended to be used with the Titanium Telegraph® Humeral Nail cleared in k042332. FH Industrie will manufacture and commercialize these screws.
{1}------------------------------------------------
These screws are made of titanium (according to ISO 5832 and ASTM F-136) and are available in 4 lengths (24, 28, 30, 32mm) and with a 4mm diameter
### INTENDED USE :
The titanium Telegraph® humeral nail is indicated for proximal and/or diaphyseal fractures of the humerus
# TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND COMPARISON TO PREDICATE DEVICES :
The proposed Titanium Telegraph® Humeral nail is now provided with sterile cancellous screws and sterile self-threating cortical cotter screws. It has exactly the same intended use and same design as the predicate devices. No change was made on the design and material and of the humeral nail. Diameters and lengths remain unchanged.
The main difference between the new and the previous devices is that these self-threating cortical cotter screws will be manufactured in titanium and supplied with the device. The screws are all made of the same material (titanium), have the same design and are available in similar diameters and lengths.
## PERFORMANCE DATA:
Risk to health have been addressed through the specified materials, Processing controls, quality assurance and compliance to the Medical Device Good Manufacturing Practices Regulations.
## CONCLUSION:
All these elements show the safety and effectiveness of our product. The titanium Telegraph® Humeral Nail is substantially equivalent to the selected predicate devices in terms of intended use, safety, and effectiveness.
