The MICRONAIL® Intramedullary Distal Radius System is intended to be used for the fixation of unstable distal radius fractures in which closed reduction is not suitable: • Joint destruction and/or subluxation visible on x-ray; • Failed fracture fixation with or without bone graft; • Osteotomy and repair of distal radius malunion with or without bone graft; • Displaced or non-displaced fracture which may or may not involve angulation or fragmentation of bone; • Comminuted articular fractures of the articular surface, severely comminuted extra-articular fractures, and fractures in which reduction has been lost following fixation with or with or with or without an external fixator.
Device Story
Intramedullary fixation system for distal radius fractures; consists of radial nail, cortical bone screws, buttress pins, and buttress screws. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings to stabilize fractures where closed reduction fails. Device components implanted to provide internal fixation; supports bone healing. Subject device represents modifications to previously cleared system (K040938), including design changes to nails and screws and availability of sterile/non-sterile options.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence supported by non-clinical mechanical testing and FEA analysis.
Technological Characteristics
Intramedullary fixation rod system. Materials: Titanium alloy (Ti 6Al-4V-ELI). Components: Radial nail, cortical bone screws, buttress pins, buttress screws. Sterilization: Updated methods for sterile and non-sterile configurations.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with unstable distal radius fractures where closed reduction is unsuitable, including joint destruction/subluxation, failed prior fixation, malunion requiring osteotomy, displaced/non-displaced fractures, and comminuted articular or extra-articular fractures.
Regulatory Classification
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.

Dear Ms. Redden:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug. and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

### Device Description 4.
The MICRONAIL™ Distal Radius System was cleared (K040938) as a system consisting of a radial nail, cortical bone screws, buttress pins, and buttress screws. All components are manufactured from titanium alloy, Ti 6Al-4V-ELI. Changes to the subject devices include changes made to the radial nail, buttress screws, and cortical bone screws and availability of sterile and non-sterile devices.
{5}------------------------------------------------
### 5. Intended Use
The MICRONAIL® Intramedullary Distal Radius System is intended to be used for the fixation of unstable distal radius fractures in which closed reduction is not suitable:
- · Joint destruction and/or subluxation visible on x-ray;
- · Failed fracture fixation with or without bone graft;
- · Osteotomy and repair of distal radius malunion with or without bone graft;
- · Displaced or non-displaced fracture which may or may not involve angulation or fragmentation of bone;
- · Comminuted articular fractures, shearing fractures of the articular surface, severely comminuted extra-articular fractures, and fractures in which reduction has been lost following fixation with percutaneous pins with or without an external fixator.
### Technological Characteristics Comparison 6.
The MICRONAIL™ Distal Radius System and the legally marketed predicate Radial Nail System have identical indications, utilize the same instrumentation, and are identical in material. Sterilization methods have been updated to reflect the addition of products that are provided sterile.
### 7. Substantial Equivalence- Non-Clinical Evidence
Mechanical testing, including Static Bending Strength, as well as FEA analysis has shown that the performance of the subject screw is statistically equivalent or greater than the predicate screw.
### 8. Substantial Equivalence- Clinical Evidence
N/A
### 9. Substantial Equivalence- Conclusions
The design characteristics of the subject devices do not raise any new types of questions of safety or effectiveness. From the evidence submitted in this 510(k), the subject devices can be expected to perform at least as well as the predicate systems and are substantially equivalent.
