## Intended Use

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

## Device Story

The Gotfried PH (Physiological Hip) Nail is an intramedullary fixation device designed for surgical management of proximal femur fractures. The system consists of an intramedullary nail, two proximal dynamic femoral neck screws, and up to two distal locking bolts. It is used by orthopedic surgeons in a clinical/OR setting to stabilize fractured bone segments. The device functions as an internal fixation implant to maintain alignment and support healing of the femur. It is intended for prescription use only.

## Clinical Evidence

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

## Technological Characteristics

Constructed of stainless steel. Intramedullary nail design incorporating two proximal dynamic femoral neck screws and up to two distal locking bolts. Mechanical fixation device; no energy source or software components.

## 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.
