## Indications for Use

InterTAN CHS Limited Collapse Set Screw is indicated for: - Intracapsular fractures of the proximal femur (For certain high subcapsular fractures, it may be . more prudent to select a prosthesis in lieu of internal fixation to reduce the risk of nonunion or AVN of the femoral head). - Intertrochanteric fractures. - Stable and unstable fractures of the proximal femur in which medial cortex stability can be restored. - Hip osteotomy . InterTAN CHS Limited Collapse Set Screw is for single use only and is to be used with InterTANY CHS Plating System.

## Device Story

The InterTAN CHS Limited Collapse Set Screw is a metallic bone fixation fastener designed as a line addition to the InterTAN CHS Plate System. It functions as a mechanical component to limit allowable collapse and prevent lateral advancement of the plate in proximal femur fracture fixation. Used in clinical settings by orthopedic surgeons, the device is implanted during surgery to stabilize fractures. It provides mechanical support to withstand in vivo loading, aiding in bone healing and fracture stabilization. The device is for single use only.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Mechanical data indicates the device is capable of withstanding expected in vivo loading without failure.

## Technological Characteristics

Metallic bone fixation fastener; designed for use with the InterTAN CHS Plating System to limit collapse and prevent lateral plate advancement. 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.

## Predicate Devices

- InterTAN CHS Plate System ([K080434](/device/K080434.md))
- DePuy PEAK FX Hip Plate (Limited collapse cap) ([K063509](/device/K063509.md))
