POGO Screw is a cannulated metallic bone fixation fastener used for compression fixation between bone fragments. Device is manufactured from 316 surgical stainless steel; available in lengths from 55mm to 130mm. Provided sterile or non-sterile for user sterilization. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings for fracture management and reconstructive procedures. Provides mechanical stabilization of bone segments to facilitate healing.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided.

Technological Characteristics

Material: 316 surgical stainless steel. Form factor: Cannulated screw, 55mm-130mm length. Principle: Mechanical compression fixation. Sterilization: Provided sterile or user-sterilized.

Indications for Use

Indicated for general management of bone fractures and reconstructive surgery in patients requiring metallic bone fixation fasteners.

Regulatory Classification

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.

- 3. Identification of Predicate or Legally Marketed Device The POGO Screw is substantially equivalent to the Smith and Nephew Cannulated Screws cleared under K060736 and the Stryker Medical Asnis III cleared under K071092.
- 4. Device Description

The POGO Screws are comprised of various size cannulated screws for the fixation of bone fractures. The components are manufactured from 316 surgical stainless steel. The screws are available in various sizes from 55mm to 130mm in length. They are provided sterile and also non sterile to be sterilized by the user prior to use.

- 5. Intended Use The POGO Screw is indicated for use in the general management of fractures and reconstructive surgery.
- 6. Comparison of Technological Characteristics The POGO Screw and the predicate device accomplish the same function of providing compression fixation between a base bone and a bone fragment. Both devices accommodate a range of total lengths within each product design.
- 7 Performance Testing Bench testing was conducted to support equivalency
- 8 Statement of Equivalency The POGO Screw is substantially equivalent in design, materials, construction and intended use as those of the predicate. Since the POGO Screw is the same in intended use and technological characteristics as the predicate devices, the POGO Screw does not raise any new safety and efficacy concerns when compared to these similar legally marketed devices.

Dear Mr. Lipschutz:

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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
