No clinical or animal data provided. Mechanical testing performed per ASTM F543-13 to assess torque to failure, insertion torque, axial pullout strength, and self-tapping performance. Results met acceptance criteria and showed similar performance to predicate Vilex Cannulated Bone Screw. ## Technological Characteristics Material: Titanium alloy Ti6Al4V (ISO 5832-3, ASTM F136). Design: Cannulated, self-drilling, self-tapping, compression screw. Dimensions: 2.0mm diameter, 10mm-30mm length. Sterilization: Gamma irradiation. Single-use. No coatings. ## 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 - Vilex Cannulated Bone Screw Double Thread ([K014154](/device/K014154.md)) - I.B.S.TM osteosynthesis screw ([K131920](/device/K131920.md)) - SBI AUTOFIX screw ([K052576](/device/K052576.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

87 orthopedics | | Device Description | The I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screw is a line extension of
the existing compression screw line cleared in K131920
I.B.S.TM Osteosynthesis screw. | | | The I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screws are cannulated
screws available in a compression design.
The cannulation of the screws provides a helpful feature
during surgery, as a wire is used to guide insertion of the
screw.
The compression design has a non-threaded shaft, allowing
optimal compression between the two bone fragments,
which may enhance bone osteosynthesis. | | | The I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screws are self-drilling and
self-tapping screws, which enables introduction of the screw
without any preparation of the hole (using a drill and /or a
tap) in most cases. | | | Sizes: The I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screws are available
in 2.0mm diameter, in length ranging from 10mm to 30mm. | | | Material: The I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screws are
manufactured from titanium alloy Ti6Al4V as per ISO
5832-3 and ASTM F136. They do not have any coatings. | | | Single use: The I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screws are
designed for single use only. | | | Sterilization: The I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screws are
supplied sterile, using gamma irradiation. | | | Place of use: The I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screws are
indicated for use in a hospital, or outpatient surgery center
where sterile field may be created and maintained. | | Predicate Devices | Vilex Cannulated Bone Screw Double Thread (K014154)
I.B.S.TM osteosynthesis screw (K131920)
SBI AUTOFIX screw (K052576) | | Indications for use: | The I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screws are intended for:
- The fixation of arthrodeses, osteotomies or fractures of
small bones of the upper and lower limbs
- Osteosynthesis requiring mono or bicortical compression
The size of the chosen screw should be adapted to the
specific indications. | | Comparison of
Technological | The technological characteristics of the I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis
screws are equivalent to the characteristics of predicate devices in | | characteristics | terms of design, size range, raw material. All these implants have the following features: | | | - Insertion into bone: The I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screws and all predicate devices are intended for surgical implantation into bone for longer than 30 days. | | | - Compression design: This design corresponds to a non-threaded part allowing compression between two bone fragments. The I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screws and all predicate devices have a non-threaded part allowing compression between two bone fragments. | | | - Design: The Vilex Cannulated Bone Screw Double Thread (K014154), the I.B.S.TM osteosynthesis screw (K131920) and the SBI AUTOFIX screw (K052576) predicates have similar design as the I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screw. They all are cannulated, self-tapping and self-drilling screws with a compression design. | | | - Indications for use: The Vilex Cannulated Bone Screw Double Thread (K014154), the SBI AUTOFIX screw (K052576) and the I.B.S.TM osteosynthesis screw (K131920) predicates have equivalent indications for use as the I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screw. | | | - Equivalent size range: The Vilex Cannulated Bone Screw Double Thread predicate (K014154) has similar size range of 2.0mm diameter and length from 10mm to 24mm as the I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screw. | | | The I.B.S.TM osteosynthesis screw predicate (K131920) has similar lengths from 12mm to 28mm as the I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screw. The I.B.S.TM osteosynthesis screw predicate (K131920) has a comparable diameter of 2.5mm instead of 2.0mm for the I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screw. The SBI AUTOFIX predicate (K050681) has identical size range of 2.0mm diameter and length from 10mm to 30mm as the I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screw. | | | - Material: The I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screw has identical raw material, when compared to the Vilex Cannulated Bone Screw Double Thread (K014154), the I.B.S.TM osteosynthesis screw (K131920) and the SBI AUTOFIX screw (K052576): all are manufactured from Titanium alloy Ti6Al4V, according to ISO 5832-3 and ASTM E136 standards. | | Substantial
Equivalence
Summary | As described above, the I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screws have
similar technological characteristics when compared to the predicate
devices. | {4}------------------------------------------------ {5}------------------------------------------------ {6}------------------------------------------------ | Summary | Performance testing has been evaluated for I.B.S.TM 2.0 | |-------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Performance | Osteosynthesis screws through mechanical comparison with | | Data | predicate devices, animal and clinical testing being considered | | | not applicable. | | | First, an engineering / dimensional comparison to the predicate
SBI AUTOFIX screw diameter 2.0 (K052576) was performed
to ascertain substantial equivalence. This dimensional
comparison enabled to demonstrate substantial equivalence of
the I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screw and the predicate device
SBI AUTOFIX screw diameter 2.0 (K052576) as far as the
Torsional properties are concerned. | | | In addition, mechanical testing for I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis
screws and Vilex Cannulated Bone Screw Double Thread
(K014154) predicate device was performed according to ASTM
F543-13. This standard describes methods to assess the torque
to failure, insertion torque, axial pullout strength, and self-
tapping performance of screws. Bench tests were performed to
assess the torsional properties, driving torque and axial pullout
of the I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screws. | | | The results of the testing performed by the test laboratory
indicate that the I.B.S.TM 2.0 Osteosynthesis screw met all
acceptance criteria and/or showed similar results as the
predicate device Vilex Cannulated Bone Screw Double Thread
(K014154).
Therefore, the subject device was demonstrated to be as safe
and effective as the above predicates | | CONCLUSION | Based on the evaluations and the results of the testing
performed, the design and indications of the I.B.S.TM 2.0
Osteosynthesis screws are substantially equivalent to the
predicate devices identified in the 510(k) submission. No
new materials or processes are used in the development of
this implant. | --- **Source:** [https://fda.innolitics.com/submissions/OR/subpart-d%E2%80%94prosthetic-devices/HWC/K160174](https://fda.innolitics.com/submissions/OR/subpart-d%E2%80%94prosthetic-devices/HWC/K160174) **Published by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com)** — a medical-device software consultancy.
