## Device Story

Cable-Ready Cable Grip System Cable Button is a temporary internal fixation component. Device is threaded into a vacant screw hole of Zimmer Locking Bone Plates to provide a positioning point for a Cerclage Cable. Used in orthopedic surgery to stabilize multiple fractures or butterfly fragments in long bones. Available in Titanium (Ti-6AL-4V Alloy) and Stainless Steel (22-13-5 SST).

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data was required or provided for this device. Substantial equivalence was demonstrated through non-clinical performance testing and engineering analysis.

## Technological Characteristics

Materials: Titanium (Ti-6AL-4V Alloy) and Stainless Steel (22-13-5 SST). Form factor: Threaded button component for bone plates. Function: Provides positioning point for cerclage cables in orthopedic fixation. Sterilization: Not specified.

## Regulatory Identification

Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.
