Read the full statement (101 words)

The Dynamic Hip Screw System devices are used in the treatment of femoral neck fractures in the pertrochanteric, intertrochanteric and high subtrochanteric regions of the femur, or in the treatment of combinations of these fractures.

Pertrochanteric fractures occur from the greater to lesser trochanter. Intertrochanteric fractures occur within the trochanteric area. High subtrochanteric fractures occur immediately below the trochanter.

The devices provide support to the femur and femoral head during the natural process of bone regeneration to repair the femoral fracture.

The devices are designed to withstand the in vivo loads experienced during normal activity throughout the life of the implant.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
