Intended Use

SMT Schilling's orthopaedic fixation pins and wires are intended to perform as fixation and stabilization unit of bone fractures or as guidance at insertion of implants into the skeletal system.

Device Story

Orthopaedic fixation pins and wires (Kirschner wires/Steinmann pins) are metal pins used for bone fracture fixation, stabilization, and as guide pins for implant insertion. Devices are available in various diameters (0.6–6.35mm), lengths (60–500mm), and tip configurations (diamond, trocar, round, flat). Used in clinical/surgical settings by orthopedic surgeons to provide skeletal traction or guide instrumentation. Benefits include stabilization of bone fragments and facilitation of surgical implant placement.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is based on design, dimensional, and material characterization compared to legally marketed predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Metallic bone fixation fasteners (pins/wires). Materials: Metal. Dimensions: 0.6–6.35mm diameter; 60–500mm length. Configurations: Smooth or threaded; diamond or trocar points; round/flat/spherical shapes. Energy source: None (manual/mechanical). Sterilization: Not specified.

Indications for Use

Indicated for fixation and stabilization of bone fractures or as guide pins for insertion of other implants into the skeletal system in patients requiring orthopedic surgical intervention.

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.

Substantial Equivalence Orthopaedic fixation pins and wires are substantial equivalent based upon design, dimensional and materials characterization to the Störk Kirschner Wires (K-Wires) and Steinmann Pins (#K030665) of Stork Instrumente GmbH, 78576 Emmingen-Liptingen, Germany and Teleflex KMedic Internal/External Fixation Devices (#K070561) of Teleflex Medical, Bannockburn, IL. #### Description of the Device ব Orthopaedic fixation pins and wires are metal pins for use in fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as guide pins for insertion of other implantation through the skin so that traction may be applied to the skeleton system. To ensure the multi-use of these devices, many different models are available. The differences can be as follows: - Diameter: from 0.6 up to 6.35mm (0.020 up to 0.250 inch) 이 - Length: from 60 up to 500 mm (2.36 up to 19.69 inch) ■ - Tips: diamond or trocar Point, round, flat, with or without 3- or 4- shank ends, with or without spherical . shape. - Surface: complete or partial smooth and / or threaded, with or without threading cutter. . #### Intended Use 5. SMT Schilling's orthopaedic fixation pins and wires are intended to perform as fixation and stabilization unit of bone fractures or as guidance at insertion of implants into the skeletal system. #### Conclusion 6. Based on the available 510(k) summaries and 510(k) statements (21 CFR 807) and the information provided herein, we conclude that SMT Schilling's Kirschner Wires and Pins are substantially equivalent to the existing legally marketed devices under Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
