Intended Use
The titanium Telegraph humeral nail is indicated for proximal and/or diaphyseal fractures of the humerus
Device Description
The Titanium Telegraph® Humeral Nail is designed to be inserted in the proximal extremity of the humerus. It is made of titanium (according to ASTM 136) and is available in two models: the short humeral nail (150mm) and the long humeral nail (from 210 to 310mm). All models are available in three diameters (7, 8, 9 and 10mm). These two Humeral Nail are intended to be used with cancellous screws and selfthreating cortical cotter screws, supplied by FH Industrie. This special 510(k) is being submitted to propose clearance of the titanium selfthreating cortical cotter screws intended to be used with the Titanium Telegraph® Humeral Nail cleared in k042332. FH Industrie will manufacture and commercialize these screws. These screws are made of titanium (according to ISO 5832 and ASTM F-136) and are available in 4 lengths (24, 28, 30, 32mm) and with a 4mm diameter
More Information

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

Yes
The device is a humeral nail, which is an implant used to stabilize fractures in the humerus, thereby restoring the anatomical integrity and function of the bone. This falls under the definition of a therapeutic device as it directly treats a medical condition.

No

The device description indicates it is a humeral nail and associated screws, intended for stabilizing fractures. It is a surgical implant, not a device used to diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical implant (humeral nail and screws) made of titanium, which are hardware components. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The device is indicated for treating bone fractures (proximal and/or diaphyseal fractures of the humerus). This is a therapeutic use, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device is a physical implant (humeral nail and screws) made of titanium, designed to be inserted into the bone. This is a surgical implant, not a device used to examine specimens from the human body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to test samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or to provide information about a patient's health status based on in vitro analysis.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on specimens taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device is a surgical implant used to stabilize bone fractures.

DEVICE NAME:

Trade Name: Common name: Classification name: Titanium TELEGRAPH® HUMERAL NAIL Humeral Nail Intramedullary Rod

PREDICATE DEVICES:

Titanium TELEGRAPH® HUMERAL NAIL Fournitures Hospitalieres Industrie K042332

TELEGRAPH® HUMERAL NAIL. Fournitures Hospitalieres Industrie K033510

DEVICE DESCRIPTION :

The Titanium Telegraph® Humeral Nail is designed to be inserted in the proximal extremity of the humerus. It is made of titanium (according to ASTM 136) and is available in two models: the short humeral nail (150mm) and the long humeral nail (from 210 to 310mm). All models are available in three diameters (7, 8, 9 and 10mm). These two Humeral Nail are intended to be used with cancellous screws and selfthreating cortical cotter screws, supplied by FH Industrie.

This special 510(k) is being submitted to propose clearance of the titanium selfthreating cortical cotter screws intended to be used with the Titanium Telegraph® Humeral Nail cleared in K042332. FH Industrie will manufacture and commercialize these screws.

1

These screws are made of titanium (according to ISO 5832 and ASTM F-136) and are available in 4 lengths (24, 28, 30, 32mm) and with a 4mm diameter

INTENDED USE :

The titanium Telegraph® humeral nail is indicated for proximal and/or diaphyseal fractures of the humerus

TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND COMPARISON TO PREDICATE DEVICES :

The proposed Titanium Telegraph® Humeral nail is now provided with sterile cancellous screws and sterile self-threating cortical cotter screws. It has exactly the same intended use and same design as the predicate devices. No change was made on the design and material and of the humeral nail. Diameters and lengths remain unchanged.

The main difference between the new and the previous devices is that these self-threating cortical cotter screws will be manufactured in titanium and supplied with the device. The screws are all made of the same material (titanium), have the same design and are available in similar diameters and lengths.

PERFORMANCE DATA:

Risk to health have been addressed through the specified materials, Processing controls, quality assurance and compliance to the Medical Device Good Manufacturing Practices Regulations.

CONCLUSION:

All these elements show the safety and effectiveness of our product. The titanium Telegraph® Humeral Nail is substantially equivalent to the selected predicate devices in terms of intended use, safety, and effectiveness.
