Centric Medical, a division of Life Spine Inc., announced it has received FDA 510(k) clearance for the Hammertoe Correction System.

According to a company press release, the system has a dual threaded design and is inserted between the proximal phalange and middle phalange, so the opposite threads fixate on the phalangeal canal of the toe and then compress the joint. The Hammertoe Correction System reportedly is the fifth FDA 510(k) clearance Centric Medical has received in the past 12 months. The system is expected to be released to the market in September 2016.
