Intended Use

Wire devices (K-Wire, Cerclage Wires, Steinmann Pins) - guide wire for osteosynthesis implants . - accessories for external fixation (Steinmann Pin) . - application as implant according to the AO/ASIF principles of fracture . management

Device Story

Portfolio of metallic orthopedic wires and pins (K-Wires, Steinmann Pins, Cerclage Wires) used for bone fracture fixation, joint fusion, bone reconstruction, or as guide pins for other implants. Devices are non-sterile, requiring sterilization before use; intended for removal after fracture healing. Operated by surgeons in clinical settings. Provides mechanical stabilization of bone segments or guidance for implant placement. Benefits patients by facilitating bone healing and structural alignment.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only; equivalence demonstrated through material and dimensional verification against predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Ti6Al4V (ASTM F136 or ISO 5832-3) or Stainless Steel (ASTM F138 or ISO 5832-1). Form factors: K-wires (trocar points, threaded), Steinmann pins (3-flat end), Cerclage wires (with eye). Dimensions: 0.8mm-6.0mm diameter, 45mm-600mm length. Non-sterile, requires sterilization.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring bone fracture fixation, joint fusion, bone reconstruction, or as guide pins for other implants. Used as accessories for external fixation and for osteosynthesis according to AO/ASIF principles.

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.

Predicate Devices

• Bone Wire from Störk Instrumente GmbH (K030665)
• Kirschner / Guide Wires from SMT Schilling Metalltechnik GmbH (K100736)

Dear Dr. Zietsch:

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. Isting 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.
