That period should be set at three months.

(3)

A solid, cylindrical, threaded product made of extra hard, colour finished titanium alloy, of a length of approximately 12 mm.

The product has a shank with a constant outer diameter of 3 mm and a head. The shank is wholly threaded with an asymmetrical thread. The head is threaded (allowing it to lock into a compression plate in fixation systems) with a recessed socket drive.

The product corresponds to the ISO/TC 150 standards for implant screws and is presented for use in the field of trauma surgery for setting fractures. It is to be installed in the body using specific tools.

At importation, it is presented in a sterilised packing. The product is marked with a number and therefore traceable throughout production and distribution.
