## Intended Use

The Aesculap Implant Systems Targon FN System is intended to be used for splinting, stabilization and fixation of the proximal femur.

## Device Story

Targon FN System is an internal fracture fixation device consisting of a single tapered plate and associated cancellous (6.5 mm) and bicortical (4.5 mm) screws. Used by orthopedic surgeons in a clinical/surgical setting for the stabilization of proximal femur fractures. The device provides mechanical support to bone segments to facilitate healing. It is provided sterile and is intended for prescription use.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Biomechanical testing performed to demonstrate performance similarity to predicate systems per FDA guidance for orthopedic devices.

## Technological Characteristics

Material: Titanium Alloy. Components: Single tapered plate, 6.5 mm cancellous screws, 4.5 mm bicortical screws. Sterilization: Provided sterile. Design: Internal fracture fixation system for proximal femur.

## Regulatory Identification

Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.
