This line addition introduces an extended range of sizes and an additional material option (Titanium alloy) to the previously cleared stainless steel implants. The device is intended for use by surgeons in a clinical or surgical setting to stabilize bone segments following osteotomy or corrective procedures for hammertoe, claw toe, and mallet toe. By providing mechanical fixation, the implant facilitates bone healing and structural correction of the toe deformity, potentially improving patient function and reducing pain associated with these conditions. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing and engineering analysis. ## Technological Characteristics Metallic bone fixation fastener. Materials: Stainless steel and Titanium alloy. Dimensions: Extended range of lengths and diameters. Sterilization: Not specified. Connectivity: None. Software: None. ## 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 - Pro-Toe VO Hammertoe Implant System ([K101165](/device/K101165.md)) - Newdeal® K-Wire ([K022599](/device/K022599.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

Wright Medical Technology, Inc. (a)(1). Submitted By: 5677 Airline Road Arlington, TN 38002 February 15, 2012 Date: Ryan Bormann Contact Person: Regulatory Affairs Specialist (901) 867-4409 Pro-ToeTM VO Hammertoe Implant System -(a)(2). Proprietary Name: Line Addition Bone Plate System Common Name: Classification Name and Reference: 21 CFR 888.3040 - Class II Device Product Code, Device Panel: HWC: Orthopedic K101165 - Pro-Toe VO Hammertoe Implant (a)(3). Predicate Devices: System K022599 - Newdeal® K-Wire ### (a)(4). Device Description The subject implants are modified from the previously cleared Pro-Toe™ VO Hammertoe Implant System. They offer additional size ranges as well as additional material. #### (a)(5). Intended Use The PRO-TOE™ VO Hammertoe Implant system is indicated for the fixation of osteotomies and reconstruction of the lesser toes following correction procedures for hammertoe, claw toe, and mallet toe. The indications statement is identical to that of the predicate Pro-Toe VO Hammertoe . Implant System's. # (a)(6). Technological Characteristics Comparison While many of the technological characteristics are the same for the subject device system and the predicate, some design changes have been made. The subject implants are intended n to offer an extended size range in both length and diameter. In addition to extended sizes, the subject implant has also been developed to offer two different material options for each {1}------------------------------------------------ K120645 2/2 size. The previously cleared stainless steel is intended to be offered in all sizes as well as Titanium alloy. ## (b)(1). Substantial Equivalence - Non-Clinical Evidence Performance testing and engineering analysis supports the equivalence of the new sizes and shows that no new worst-case implants are introduced in this system. #### (b)(2). Substantial Equivalence - Clinical Evidence N/A #### (b)(3). Substantial Equivalence - Conclusions The new design characteristics of the subject system do not raise any new types of questions of safety or effectiveness. Performance testing and engineering analysis shows that no new worst-case design is introduced in this system. Additionally, ASTM standards for the new Titanium address the material change. From the evidence submitted in this 510(k) the subject device system can be expected to perform at least as well as the predicate system. {2}------------------------------------------------ # DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
