Specifically, subject devices are modified with a change in the tip. All described implant devices are manufactured from implant grade titanium alloy material (Ti-Al-4V) and designed for single use. The subject devices are provided in a sterile packaged option and will be sterilized via Gamma irradiation. The subject devices are designed to be used with TRIGEN™ Titanium intramedullary nail systems. ### Intended Use The TRIGEN™ Low Profile Bone Screw can be used with several types of nails in Smith & Nephew's (TRIGEN™) Titanium Nail System. The TRIGEN™ Low Profile Bone Screw therefore has the following indications: Indications for interlocking intramedullary nails include simple long bone fractures; severely comminuted, spiral, large oblique and segmental fractures; nonunions and malunions; polytrauma and multiple fractures; prophylactic nailing of impending pathologic fractures; reconstruction following tumor resection and grafting; supracondylar fractures; bone lengthening and shortening. Interlocking intramedullary nails are indicated for fixation of fractures that occur in and between the proximal and distal third of the long bones being treated. In addition to the indications for interlocking intramedullary nails, devices that contain holes/slots proximally to accept screws that thread into the femoral head for {4}------------------------------------------------ compression and rotational stability (e.g. Femoral Antegrade Nail, Trochanteric Antegrade Nail and Femoral/Recon Antegrade Nail) are indicated for the following: subtrochanteric fractures, intertrochanteric fractures, and ipsilateral femoral shaft/neck fractures. In addition to the indications for interlocking intramedullary nails, devices that use a retrograde femoral surgical approach (e.g. Knee Nail, Retrograde and Supracondylar Nails) are indicated for the following: comminuted supracondylar fractures with or without intra-articular extension; fractures that require opening the knee joint to stabilize the femoral condylar segment; fractures above total knee implants (periprosthetic fractures). The TRIGEN™ InterTAN nails are indicated for fractures of the femur including: simple shaft fractures, comminuted shaft fractures, spiral shaft fractures, long oblique shaft fractures and segmental shaft fractures: subtrochanteric fractures: intertrochanteric fractures; ipsilateral femoral shaft/neck fractures; intracapsular fractures; nonunions and malunions; polytrauma and multiple fractures; prophylactic nailing of impending pathologic fractures; reconstruction, following tumor resection and grafting; bone lengthening and shortening. META-TAN™ Nails are indicated for fractures of the femur including simple long bone fractures, severely comminuted, spiral, large oblique and segmental fractures; nonunions and malunions; polytrauma and multiple fractures; prophylactic nailing of impending pathologic fractures: reconstruction, following tumor resection and grafting; supracondylar fractures; bone lengthening and shortening; and for fixation of fractures that occur in and between the proximal third and distal fourth of the femur. In addition. META- TAN™ Nails contain holes/slots proximally to accept screws that thread into the femoral head for compression and rotational stability and are indicated for the following: subtrochanteric fractures; intertrochanteric fractures; ipsilateral femoral shaft/neck fractures; and intracapsular fractures. The TRIGEN™ Low Profile Bone Screw is intended for single use only. Comparison to Technological Characteristics with the Predicate Device Device comparisons described in this premarket notification demonstrated that the proposed TRIGEN™ Low Profile Bone Screws are substantially equivalent to the legally marketed primary predicate devices cleared in K111025 with regard to intended use, indications for use, and performance characteristics. The subject TRIGEN™ Low Profile Bone Screws feature characteristics as previously cleared in K111025 with the primary differences being a design change in the tip of the screw. The subject devices feature identical indications for use and intended use as the TRIGEN™ Low Profile Bone Screws offered in K111025. ## Summary of Pre-Clinical Testing - Insertion Torque Evaluation Testing evaluated the performance of the . subject device compared to the original design. Test results showed the TRIGEN™ Low Profile Screws with the design change to the screw tip requires less insertion torque than the predicate. The modified TRIGEN™ {5}------------------------------------------------ Low Profile Bone Screw would therefore be expected to have a superior insertion torque performance as compared to the predicate design. Bacterial endotoxin testing was completed and met the acceptable endotoxin limits as stated in the FDA Guidance . "Submission and Review of Sterility Information in Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions for Devices Labeled as Sterile," "Pyrogen and Endotoxins Testing: Questions and Answers," and ANSI/AAMI ST72. ## Substantial Equivalence Information The subject devices are identical in function, intended use, indications for use, and material composition, and very similar in overall design to the TRIGEN™ Low Profile Bone Screws cleared via premarket notification K111025.

Based on the similarities to the predicate components and a review of the mechanical testing performed, the devices are substantially equivalent to above predicate device.
