Intended Use
The S2 Femoral Nail is indicated for long bone fracture fixation specifically femoral fracture fixation, which may include the following: - Open and closed femoral fractures - Pseudoarthrosis and correction osteotomy - Pathologic fractures, impending pathologic fractures, and tumor resections - Supracondylar fractures, including those with intra-articular extension - Ipsilateral femur fractures - Fractures proximal to a total knee arthroplasty - Fractures distal to a hip joint - Nonunions and malunions
Device Description
The subject S2 Femoral Nail System, like the predicate T2" Femoral Nail System, is a fracture fixation device comprised of femoral nails and the related locking screws, compression screws, and end caps. The subject and predicate devices are intended to provide strong and stable internal fracture fixation with minimal soft tissue irritation. This device is utilized as an aid to healing, not as a substitute for normal intact bone and tissue.
More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical fracture fixation device and makes no mention of AI or ML technology.

Yes
The device is a fracture fixation system intended to aid in healing bone fractures, which is a therapeutic function.

No

The device is described as a "fracture fixation device" used for "long bone fracture fixation," which aids in healing and provides "strong and stable internal fracture fixation." Its intended use and description do not mention any diagnostic capabilities.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "fracture fixation device comprised of femoral nails and the related locking screws, compression screws, and end caps," which are physical hardware components.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "long bone fracture fixation specifically femoral fracture fixation." This describes a surgical implant used to stabilize broken bones.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "fracture fixation device comprised of femoral nails and the related locking screws, compression screws, and end caps." This further confirms it's a physical implant for surgical use.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze samples. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) as a surgical implant.

Device Description

This Special 510(k) submission is intended to address a material modification and a design modification of the T2" Femoral Nail System to create the subject device which is referred to as the S2 Femoral Nail System. The material modification involves changing the material from Ti-6A1-4V Allov to 316L Stainless Steel. The design change for the nail involves changing the cross section, changing the proximal and distal screw hole configuration and adding additional lengths of nails. There is no change in intended use for the modified device when compared to the previously cleared device.
