Device is surgically implanted by a physician; intended to treat sequelae of hyperpronation. Benefits include mechanical stabilization of joint and correction of foot alignment.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Metallic bone fixation fastener; intended for subtalar joint stabilization. Class II device under 21 CFR 888.3040. No specific material standards or software components described.

## Regulatory Identification

A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.
