Threadlengths within the range of 10.0, 12.0, 14.0 mm and 16.0 mm. The diameter of the shafts is 2.0 mm. The head shape is in a diameter of 4.0 mm. It is grooved for fastening of wires and rubber bands. For a self-retaining fit to the blade the top is tapered inner hexagonal. The screws are manufactured of Ti6Al-4V according to ASTM F 136-02a. The MEDICON IMF-Orion Screws provide temporary occlusal and fracture stabilization which can be achieved within a matter of minutes. These screws may be applied prior to or after exposure of the fracture. The shapes, sizes and materials used are substantially equivalent to those of SE devices ### 2.7 Intended Use: [807.92 (a)(5)] The Medicon IMF Orion Screws are intended for use as a bone screw in temporary fixation of the maxilla and mandible, providing indirect stabilization of fractures of the maxilla, mandible or both. #### 2.8 Environment of Use The MEDICON IMF-Orion Screws are intended for use in healthcare facilities, including hospitals, medical clinics and surgical centers. Within these facilities the MEDICON IMF-Orion Screws may be located in areas where sterile surgical/dental instruments are used such as operating rooms for surgery. #### 2.9 Difference in Design and Technological Characteristics when Compared to SE Devices [807.92(a)(6)] - Material: Like the SE devices, the MEDICON IMF-Orion Screws are manufactured from nonmagnetic, high quality Titanium Alloy (Ti6Al4V) acc. to ASTM F136-02a (DIN ISO 5832-3). - The design is very similar. Both MEDICON and SE devices Design: consist of various sizes regarding length, measurement and fitting of the screw head. {2}------------------------------------------------ #### Discussion of Safety and Effectiveness [807.92(b)] 2.10 Clinical results of the MEDICON IMF-Orion Screws made out of Titanium Alloy (Ti6Al4V) and manufactured after ASTM F136-02a have shown their safety and effectiveness: - 1. see exhibit 5a: German Literature OP-Journal 2003 "Verwendung von IMF-Schrauben zur mandibulo-maxillären Fixation" - 2. see exhibit 5b: German Literature with English abstract p. 361 "Die FAMI-Schraube für die temporäre intermaxillare Fixation" - 5c: Literature Addenbrooke's NHS "THE exhibit 3. see INTERMAXILLARY SCREW -- A DEDICATED BICORTICAL BONE SCREW FOR TEMPORARY INTERMAXILLARY FIXATION" #### Industry Standards: [807.92 (d)] 2.11 MEDICON certifies compliance with required ISO/EN/ASTM and other device-related standards that apply to the manufacure, packaging, labeling, sterilization, and reprocessing of subject devices including the validation of these processes. ### Substantially Equivalent #### Information Bearing on the Safety and Effectiveness: 2.12 [807.92 (b)(3)] The MEDICON IMF-Orion Screws have the same intended use as predicate devices. They are made of identical material according to ASTM F136-02a. The slight differences in design and size do not adversely affect the safety and effectiveness of this device. The results of design validation and clinical testing raise no new issues of safety and effectiveness. 2-4 {3}------------------------------------------------ | | 2.13 Comparison with predicate devices (table) | | | | | | |--|------------------------------------------------|--|--|--|--|--| |--|------------------------------------------------|--|--|--|--|--| | | MEDICON | Walter<br>Lorenz | KLS-Martin | Synthes | Howmedica<br>Leibinger | |--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------|--------------------------------|--------------------------| | INTENDED USE:<br>The Medicon IMF Orion Screws are<br>intended for use as a bone screw in<br>temporary fixation of the maxilla and<br>mandible, providing indirect stabilization of<br>fractures of the maxilla, mandible or both. | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | | METHODS OF STERILIZATION:<br>Steam Sterilization to SAL of 10-6<br>(For Medicon IMF Orion Screws:<br>3 times pre-vacuum, 132° C, holding time 4<br>minutes [full cycle], drying time 10 minutes.<br>Validated according to ISO 14937:2000) | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | | MATERIAL: | Ti6Al4V ASTM<br>F136-02a | Ti6Al4V ASTM<br>F136-02a | Ti6Al4V ASTM<br>F136-02a | 316-L | Ti6Al4V ASTM<br>F136-02a | | DESIGN:<br>Color, Coding: | Natural silver | Gold,<br>Blue (5.0mm) | Gold | Natural silver | Gold | | Thread length (mm) | 10, 12, 14, 16 | 5, 7, 9, 11 | 9, 11, 13, 15 | 8, 12 | 8, 14 | | Thread function | self-tapping &<br>selfdrilling | selfdrilling (blue<br>colored 5.0mm)<br>self-tapping (7,<br>9, 11) | self-tapping | self-tapping &<br>selfdrilling | Self-tapping | | Headshape secures fast and safe gripping | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | | Labeling (Packaging shows indications for<br>screw identification) | Assumed | Assumed | Assumed | Assumed | Assumed | | manufactured after ASTM F 136-02a<br>see Exhibit 3 | Yes | Yes | Yes | Assumed | Yes | 2-5 {4}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/4/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
