Intended Use

The BOLD® SCREW is intended to be implanted for fixation of bone fractures or for bone reconstructions.

Device Story

BOLD® SCREW is a cannulated titanium alloy bone fixation screw; lengths 10-34 mm; features non-threaded shaft and double-pitch thread at tip. Used by surgeons for bone fracture fixation and reconstruction in foot surgery. Implanted via surgical procedure to provide mechanical stability to osteotomies or fractures. Benefits patient by facilitating bone healing through rigid fixation.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Rupture torque of the BOLD® SCREW was compared against requirements of French Standard NF-F-90-414, demonstrating compliance with torsion resistance standards.

Technological Characteristics

Cannulated bone fixation screw; material: titanium alloy; dimensions: 10-34 mm length; features: non-threaded shaft, double-pitch thread at tip, hexagonal socket head.

Indications for Use

Indicated for fixing elective osteotomies of mid-foot bones, metatarsals, and phalanges of the foot. Includes mono/bi-cortical forefoot osteotomies, distal/proximal metatarsal osteotomies, Weil osteotomy, fusion of first metatarsophalangeal and interphalangeal joints, fixation of Hallux Valgus osteotomies (e.g., Scarf, Chevron), Akin osteotomy, and arthrodesis of the base first metatarsal cuneiform joint for metatarsus varus primus stabilization.

Regulatory Classification

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.

DESCRIPTION OF DEVICE:

The BOLD® SCREW is a cannulated screw made of a Titanium alloy. Its design includes a non-threaded shaft I italidin andy. In screw tip. Screws come in lengths of 10-34 mm.

Class II

The BOLD® SCREW is intended to be implanted for fixation of bone fractures or for bone reconstructions.

The BOLD® SCREW is indicated for fixing the

interphalangeal joint.

· Weil osteotomy

· Akin type osteotomy

elective osteotomies of the mid-foot bones and the metatarsal and phalanges of the foot only. Examples

> · Mono or Bi-cortical ostcotomies in the forefoot · Distal or proximal metatarsal osteotomies

· Fusion of the first metatarsophalangeal joint and

· Fixation of osteotomies for Hallux Valgus treatment (such as Scarf, Chevron, ... etc.)

· Arthrodesis base first metatarsal cuneiform joint to reposition and stabilize metatarsus varus primus

INDICATIONS FOR USE:

INTENDED USE:

# PREDICATE DEVICE:

The BOLD® SCREW is substantially equivalent to the Scarf Thread-head Screw (DePuy) (K931155) and the Herbert-Whipple Bone Screw (Zimmer) (K792022)

COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS:

SUMMARY OF STUDIES:

Both the BOLD® SCREW, the Scarf Thread-head Screw and the Herbert-Whipple Bone Screw have the same intended use and all are indicated for fixing small fractures or osteotomies. All are made from Titanium alloys. The BOLD® SCREW, the Herbert-Whipple and the Scarf Thread-head Screw have a non-threaded segment. The thread pitch of the Scarf screw differs slightly while the BOLD® SCREW has a double pitch at the tip of the screw compared to the head. Both have a thread head and a hexagonal socket. The Scarf Threadhead Screw, the BOLD® SCREW and the Herbert-Whipple screw are all cannulated and are topped with a hexagonal socket.

Rupture torque of the BOLD® SCREW was compared with requirements of the French Standard Nº NF-F-90-414 and found to have a resistance to torsion in compliance with the selected Standard.
