## Intended Use

The BioPro - Infinity™ Plate Anchor System is indicated for ligament reattachment or fixation. The BioPro Infinity™ Plate and Screw(s) is supplied 'sterile' and intended for 'single-use' only. The system is not intended for spinal use.

## Device Story

The BioPro Infinity™ Plate Anchor System is a metallic bone fixation system used for ligament reattachment or fixation. The system consists of various plates (2-hole curved, 1-hole 10/12/14mm, 3-hole flat straight, and 3-hole T-plate) and 3.0mm cancellous screws (15mm and 20mm lengths). The device is used in a surgical setting by a physician to secure soft tissue to bone. The system is provided sterile for single-use and includes disposable ancillary instrumentation (screwdriver and K-wire) for implantation and removal. The device provides mechanical stabilization of ligaments to facilitate healing.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Materials: 6-4 Alloyed Titanium per ASTM F136. Surface treatment: Anodize Type II. Components: Multiple plate configurations and 3.0mm cancellous screws. Sterilization: Ethylene Oxide. Single-use, sterile. No software or electronic components.

## 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.

## Predicate Devices

- Synthes - Metallic Spiked Washers ([K013806](/device/K013806.md))
