Intended Use
The Universal Clamp Spinal Fixation System is a temporary implant for use in orthopedic surgery. The system is intended to provide temporary stabilization as a bone anchor during the development of solid bony fusion and aid in the repair of bone fractures. The indications for use include the following applications: 1. Spinal trauma surgery, used in sublaminar or facet wiring techniques; 2. Spinal reconstructive surgery, incorporated into constructs for the purpose of correction of spinal deformities such as idiopathic and neuromuscular scoliosis in patients 8 years of age and older, adult scoliosis, kyphosis and spondylolisthesis; 3. Spinal degenerative surgery, as an adjunct to spinal fusions. The Universal Clamp System may also be used in conjunction with other medical grade implants made of similar metals whenever "wiring" may help secure the attachment of the other implants.
Device Story
Universal Clamp Spinal Fixation System provides temporary stabilization as bone anchor during spinal fusion or fracture repair. Components include woven band with stiff guiding section, metal buckles, metal clamps (mating with 4.5mm-6.35mm rods), and locking screw. Used in orthopedic surgery by surgeons to secure implants via wiring techniques. System functions as mechanical fixation construct; clamps tighten over band to secure to connecting rod. Benefits include stabilization of spinal segments during bony fusion. Implants are single-use and provided sterile.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Static axial pushdown, static axial rotation, static axial tension, and dynamic tension testing performed per ASTM F1798. All tests met acceptance criteria.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: implantable grade titanium, titanium alloy, cobalt chromium. Components: woven band, metal buckles, metal clamps, locking screw. Dimensions: clamps mate with 4.5mm-6.35mm rods. Sterilization: provided sterile. Mechanical fixation via clamping/locking screw mechanism.
Indications for Use
Indicated for spinal trauma, reconstructive surgery (scoliosis, kyphosis, spondylolisthesis in patients 8+ years), and degenerative spinal surgery as an adjunct to fusion. Used as a temporary bone anchor/stabilization device.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A bone fixation cerclage is a device intended to be implanted that is made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and that consists of a metallic ribbon or flat sheet or a wire. The device is wrapped around the shaft of a long bone, anchored to the bone with wire or screws, and used in the fixation of fractures.

Dear Ms. Seppanen:
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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

## General Device Description:
The Universal Clamp Spinal Fixation System consists of a woven band with a stiff guiding section at one end and metal buckles at the other end, implantable grade metal clamps that mate with 4.5mm - 6.35mm diameter rods, and an implantable grade metal locking screw that tightens the clamp over the band securing it to the connecting rod.
lmplants made from implantable grade titanium, implantable grade titanium alloy, and implantable grade cobalt chromium may be used together. Due to the risk of galvanic corrosion, never use titanium alloy, and/or cobalt chromium with stainless steel in the same construct. All implants are provided sterile and are single use only; the implants should not be re-used or re-sterilized under any circumstances.
