Intended Use

The CalcaNail Orthopedic Arthrodesis Nail is intended for subtalar arthrodesis in the treatment of patients with: - Comminuted fractures of the calcaneus - Post-traumatic osteoarthritis and/or poor function resulting from calcaneal fracture sequelae - Osteoarthritis of the posterior subtalar joint, or - Valgus flatfoot deformities

Device Story

CalcaNail is an orthopedic titanium intramedullary nail system designed for subtalar arthrodesis; used for repair of articular calcaneal fractures. System includes 12mm diameter nails (65mm, 75mm, 85mm lengths) and 5mm cannulated fixation screws (24mm-80mm lengths). Device is implanted by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/surgical settings. Principle of operation involves intramedullary fixation to provide structural stability to the calcaneus and talus. Output is mechanical stabilization of the joint; intended to improve clinical outcomes for patients with hindfoot deformities or fractures. Device provides greater rigidity compared to standard cannulated screws and improved primary stability compared to locking plates.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Biomechanical study performed on 14 human calcaneal and talar bones (7 pairs) comparing CalcaNail to Synthes locking plate (K991407). Results showed superior primary stability with CalcaNail in a standardized calcaneal fracture model. Engineering simulation compared moments of inertia against FHI cannulated screws (K070617), demonstrating greater rigidity for the CalcaNail.

Technological Characteristics

Material: Titanium. Components: 12mm diameter intramedullary nail (3 lengths) and 5mm cannulated screws (17 lengths). Principle: Intramedullary fixation rod. Form factor: Orthopedic nail system with delivery instruments. Sterilization: Not specified.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring subtalar arthrodesis due to comminuted calcaneal fractures, post-traumatic osteoarthritis, calcaneal fracture sequelae, posterior subtalar joint osteoarthritis, or valgus flatfoot deformities.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

#### 2. Name of Device

Proprietary Name: CalcaNail Orthopedic Arthrodesis Nail

Common Name: Orthopedic Nail

Device Classification: Intramedullary Fixation Rod

Product Code: 87 HSB (Rod, Fixation, Intramedullary and Accessories)

These devices have been placed in Class II as per 21 CFR Regulation Number 888.3020 and assigned the Product Code 87 HSB.

#### 3. Predicate Devices

The components of the CalcaNail Orthopedic Nail are substantially equivalent to the following legally marketed devices:

{4}------------------------------------------------

- Synthes Calcaneal Locking Plate K991407 o
- o FHI Cannulated Screws K070617
- o NewDeal Panta Nail K091788

This statement is based on the similarity of the subject device to the predicate devices in one or more of intended use, materials, design and principles of operation.

## 4. Device Description

The CalcaNail is orthopaedic nail for the repair of articular fractures of the calcaneus. The device consists of an orthopedic titanium 12 mm nail available in 3 lengths (65 mm, 75 mm and 85 mm) for subtalar arthrodesis. The system also includes a series of 5 mm cannulated screws for fixation available in 17 lengths (24 mm - 80 mm)

## 5. Intended Use

The CalcaNail Orthopedic Arthrodesis Nail is intended for subtalar arthrodesis in the treatment of patients with:

- Comminuted fractures of the calcaneus -
Post-traumatic osteoarthritis and/or poor function resulting from calcaneal ﮯ fracture sequelae

- Osteoarthritis of the posterior subtalar joint, or l
- -Valgus flatfoot deformities

# 6. Comparison to Predicate Devices

The CalcaNail System has been carefully compared to legally marketed devices with respect to intended use and safety and effectiveness. The Synthes calcaneal locking plate K991407, FHI cannulated screws K070617, NewDeal Panta Nail K091788 are all indicated for use in the foot, ankle and the calcaneus with the nails and screws including subtalar arthrodesis. All devices are manufactured from titanium and/or stainless steel and are available with delivery instruments for proper use.

Seven pairs of (total of 14) enzymatically corroded human calcaneal and talar bones were fixed either by the CalcaNail Orthopedic Screw or Synthes locking plate (K991407) for biomechanical testing. The results of this published testing showed that the primary stability at the chosen experimental set-up of a standardized calcaneal fracture was better with the CalcaNail than with the standard Synthes calcaneal locking plate.

Engineering simulation was used to compare the moments of inertia of the smallest crosssections of the CalcaNail nail comparing this to the currently marketed FHI cannulated screws (K070617). The analysis performed demonstrated the CalcaNail provided much greater rigidity than the cannulated screws used routinely in rear foot deformity surgery.

{5}------------------------------------------------

# 7. Summary of Substantial Equivalence

Based on the descriptive information and analysis provided FH Industrie has determined that the CalcaNail Arthrodesis Nail is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices presented. The bench testing and device description confirms that the subject CalcaNail demonstrate no new issues of safety or effectiveness in treating old and recent fractures of the heel bone joint, and hind foot deformity surgery such as arthrodesis.
