Intended Use
The EB1® Trochanteric Nail is indicated for the treatment of fractures of the femur including: non-comminuted and comminuted midshaft fracture, subtrochanteric fracture, distal third fracture, combination fractures of the shaft and neck, intertrochanteric fracture, combination intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures. The EBI Trochanteric Nail is also indicated for osteotomies, reconstructive procedures following tumor resection, revision procedures where other treatment or devices have failed, and arthrodesis.
Device Description
The EB10 Trochanteric Nail System is an interlocking intramedullary rod used in the fixation of fractures of the femur. The system consists of five basic components; trochanteric nails, lag screws, cortical screws, end caps, and set screws.
More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical implant (trochanteric nail system) and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

No
A therapeutic device is one that performs or supports a therapeutic function. This device is a passive implant used for fracture fixation, rather than actively performing a therapeutic function.

No
The device is an intramedullary rod used for fracture fixation, osteotomies, and reconstructive procedures, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "interlocking intramedullary rod" and lists physical components like "trochanteric nails, lag screws, cortical screws, end caps, and set screws," indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a device used for the surgical fixation of bone fractures (femur). This is a therapeutic intervention performed in vivo (within the body).
  • Device Description: The description details an "interlocking intramedullary rod" and associated hardware (screws, caps). These are physical implants used to stabilize bone.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (blood, tissue, etc.) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body, not to treat conditions directly within the body.

N/A

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The EBI® Trochanteric Nail System is intended to be implanted into the long bones for alignment, stabilization, and fixation of fractures caused by trauma or disease, the fixation of long bones that have been surgically prepared (osteotomy) for correction of deformity, and for athrodesis.

The EB1® Trochanteric Nail is indicated for the treatment of fractures of the femur including: non-comminuted and comminuted midshaft fracture, subtrochanteric fracture, distal third fracture, combination fractures of the shaft and neck, intertrochanteric fracture, combination intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures. The EBI Trochanteric Nail is also indicated for osteotomies, reconstructive procedures following tumor resection, revision procedures where other treatment or devices have failed, and arthrodesis.

    1. Predicate or legally marketed device that is substantially equivalent:
      Biomet Holland Femoral Nail System (K983641)
    1. Description of the device: The EB10 Trochanteric Nail System is an interlocking intramedullary rod used in the fixation of fractures of the femur. The system consists of five basic components; trochanteric nails, lag screws, cortical screws, end caps, and set screws.
    1.

    1. Non-Clinical Testing: The results of the mechanical testing demonstrate that the EBI Trochanteric Nail System is mechanically as strong as the predicate device.
    1. Comparison of the technological characteristics of the device to predicate

devices: There are no significant differences between the EBI® Trochanteric Nail System and other currently marketed internal fixation systems. It is substantially equivalent* to the predicate device in regards to indications for use, location, design characteristics, material, mechanical strength, and sterility.

    1. Conclusion: Technological characteristics and mechanical testing have demonstrated that the EBI Trochanteric Nail System is as safe and effective and performs as well as the predicate device and is therefore substantially equivalent.
