Intended Use
The Smith & Nephew CONQUEST FN is intended for use in internal fixation of femoral neck fractures.
Device Story
CONQUEST FN system consists of contoured locking bone plates and compatible locking/non-locking bone screws. Device used for internal fixation of femoral neck fractures. Plates are implanted by surgeons in clinical settings to stabilize bone fractures. System provides mechanical support to facilitate healing. Subject device adds smaller plate sizes to existing system. Manufactured from 316L stainless steel; provided sterile via Gamma irradiation. Single-use only.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Construct fatigue testing performed to evaluate stability during bending fatigue; results met acceptance criteria. Bacterial endotoxin testing performed and met limits per ANSI/AAMI ST72.
Technological Characteristics
Material: 316L stainless steel. Design: Contoured locking bone plates and locking/non-locking bone screws. Sterilization: Gamma irradiation. Single-use. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for displaced and undisplaced intracapsular femoral neck fractures in patients requiring internal fixation.
Regulatory Classification
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.

Dear Thomas Fearnley:
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for
{1}------------------------------------------------
devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.
For comprehensive regulatory information about mediation-emitting products, including information about labeling regulations, please see Device Advice (https://www.fda.gov/medicaldevices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance) and CDRH Learn (https://www.fda.gov/training-and-continuing-education/cdrh-learn). Additionally, you may contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education (DICE) to ask a question about a specific regulatory topic. See the DICE website (https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-advice-comprehensive-regulatoryassistance/contact-us-division-industry-and-consumer-education-dice) for more information or contact DICE by email (DICE@fda.hhs.gov) or phone (1-800-638-2041 or 301-796-7100).

### Device Description
The CONQUEST FN system is comprised of contoured locking bone plates and compatible locking and non-locking bone screws. The subject premarket notification describes additional sizes of the bone plates to the Smith & Nephew CONQUEST FN system. The subject devices are manufactured from the same implant-grade stainless steel (316L) and designed for singleuse. They will be provided in a sterile packaged option and will be sterilized via Gamma irradiation.
### Intended Use
The Smith & Nephew CONQUEST FN is intended for use in internal fixation of femoral neck fractures.
### Indications for Use
The Smith & Nephew CONQUEST FN is indicated for displaced and undisplaced intracapsular femoral neck fractures.
### Comparison to Technological Characteristics with Predicate Device
Device comparisons described in this premarket notification demonstrated that the proposed CONQUEST FN bone plates are substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate devices listed below with regard to intended use, indications for use, and performance characteristics.
The subject bone plates feature characteristics very similar to the CONQUEST FN system bone plates cleared via K152686, with the primary differences being the elimination of the plate shaft and distal screw holes. All other design aspects, indications for use, intended use, material and fundamental scientific technology remain the same as those in K152686.

### Summary of Pre-Clinical Testing
- Construct Fatigue Testing was conducted on the CONQUEST FN 3 Hole Small Stature . Plate. Results of the test concluded that the CONQUEST FN 3 Hole Small Stature Plate met the acceptance criteria and is expected to have similar construct stability during bending fatigue as compared to the predicate.
Bacterial endotoxin testing was completed and met the acceptable endotoxin limits as stated in FDA Guidance , "Submission and Review of Sterility Information in Premarket Notification

(510(k)) Submissions for Devices Labeled as Sterile," "Pyrogen and Endotoxin Testing: Questions and Answers," and ANSI/AAMI ST72.
### Conclusion
The proposed additional sizes of CONQUEST FN plates are substantially equivalent to the previously cleared CONQUEST FN plates cleared with the CONQUEST FN system in K152686 in that the indications for use and fundamental scientific technology for the subject devices are identical.
