## Intended Use

The Gamma3 Target Devices are intended for use with the Trochanteric Nail or Long Length Gamma3 Nail. The Gamma3 and T2 Recon Distal Targeting Devices are intended for use with the Long Length Gamma3 Nail and T2 Recon Nail System. Gamma3 Nail System: The Trochanteric Gamma3 Nail is indicated for fixation of stable and unstable intertrochanteric fractures, including but not limited to nonunion, malunion and tumor resections, while the Long Length Gamma3 Nail inidcation may include fractures resulsting from trauma, nonunion, malunion, pathological fractures, impending pathological fractures, turnor resections and revision procedures. T2 Recon Nail System: T2 Recon Nail System indications include fixation of subtrochanteric, intertrochanteric, ipsilateral neck/shaft, communited proximal femoral shaft fractures, femoral fixation required as a result of pathological disease, and temporary stabilization of the femoral shaft ranging from the femoral neck to the supracondylar regions of the femur.

## Device Story

Gamma3 and T2 Recon Target Devices are surgical accessories for intramedullary nail systems. Devices facilitate accurate placement of distal locking screws during orthopedic surgery. Operated by surgeons in clinical/OR settings. Input consists of mechanical alignment with the nail system; output is physical guidance for drill/screw placement. Enhances surgical precision; reduces potential for malalignment during fracture fixation. No software or electronic components involved.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data; bench testing only. Engineering evaluations and laboratory testing (targeting accuracy, stiffness, and nail accommodation) demonstrated substantial equivalence.

## Technological Characteristics

Mechanical surgical targeting accessories for intramedullary fixation rods. Materials and design are consistent with predicate Gamma3 and T2 Recon systems. No energy source, software, or connectivity. Sterilization via standard hospital methods.

## 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.

## Predicate Devices

- Gamma3 Nail System ([K043431](/device/K043431.md))
- T2 Recon Nail System ([K102992](/device/K102992.md))
