Device Story
Zimmer Natural Nail System is a family of intramedullary nails for temporary femoral fracture fixation and stabilization. System includes nails of various lengths/diameters, secured by 6.0mm fixed angle screws passing through proximal/distal nail holes. Components include nail caps, cortical washers, and cortical nuts. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings to stabilize femoral fractures. Device provides mechanical support to bone segments during healing. Output is the physical stabilization of the fracture site, enabling patient recovery.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing performed including screw three-point bend test, proximal nail fatigue construct test, distal nail fatigue construct test, and non-pyrogenicity testing.
Technological Characteristics
Intramedullary fixation rod system. Components made of Ti-6Al-4V alloy; cortical nut contains UHMWPE. Fixed angle screw design. Mechanical fixation via intramedullary placement. Sterilization method same as predicate.
Indications for Use
Indicated for temporary fracture fixation and stabilization of the femur in patients with compound/simple shaft fractures, proximal/metaphyseal/distal shaft fractures, segmental fractures, comminuted fractures, osteopenic/osteoporotic bone fractures, pathological fractures, bone loss, pseudoarthrosis, non-union, mal-union, delayed union, periprosthetic fractures, surgically created defects (osteotomies), intertrochanteric/subtrochanteric fractures, closed supracondylar fractures, severely comminuted supracondylar fractures with articular involvement, femoral condyle fractures, and poly trauma.
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 Mr. Saraiya:
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.

Trochanter Antegrade Femoral Nails and Retrograde Femoral Nails and different sizes were cleared in both submissions. Since these screws are used for various nails in the same product family, we think that this still qualifies as a special 510(k) submission.
The Zimmer Natural Nail System is a family of temporary fixation intramedullary nails designed for fracture fixation and stabilization of the femur. The nails are available in a variety of lengths and diameters to meet the assorted anatomical needs. Each of the intramedullary nails is secured by a series of screws that pass through holes manufactured into the proximal and distal sections of each nail. Nail caps, cortical washers and cortical nuts are available for use with the system. All components are made of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The cortical nut also contains UHMWPE.
