Scope

YY 0017-2026 is the English-translated version of 骨接合植入器械 金属接骨板.

YY 0017 is the mandatory standard for the metal bone plate, the companion to the bone screw standard YY 0018 issued the same day. It specifies the requirements, the manufacture, the sterilization, the packaging and the information the manufacturer has to supply for metallic bone plates used in osteosynthesis, and describes the corresponding test methods. Plates and screws are qualified as a system in practice but standardised separately, because a plate is judged on bending strength and fatigue while a screw is judged on torsion and pull-out. The YY prefix without the /T suffix makes compliance compulsory in China, and the 2026 edition takes effect on 1 March 2028. For a manufacturer or an importer of locking, compression or anatomic plates for the Chinese market, this is the governing document.

1.Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents". Drafting. This document supersedes YY 0017-2016 "Metal Bone Plates for Bone Integration Implants". Compared with YY 0017-2016, the only changes are editorial revisions. Aside from the changes, the main technical changes are as follows:

---The scope of application has been changed (see Chapter 1, Chapter 1 of the.2016 edition);

---The material requirements have been changed (see 4.1,.2016 version 4.1);

---The requirements for static mechanical properties have been changed (see 4.2.2,.2016 version 4.2.2);

---The fatigue performance requirements have been changed (see 4.2.3,.2016 version 4.2.3);

---The surface roughness requirements have been changed (see 4.4.2,.2016 version 4.4.2);

---The appearance requirements have been changed (see 4.4.3,.2016 version 4.4.3);

---Requirements for fit performance have been added (see 4.5);

---Size requirements have been changed (see 4.6,

4.5 in the.2016 version);

---Aseptic requirements have been added (see 4.7);

---The section "Hole and slot in bone plates in ISO 5836 and ISO 9269" has been removed (see Appendix B of the.2016 edition). Please note that some content in this document may involve patents.

1 Scope

YY 0017 is the mandatory standard for the metal bone plate, the companion to the bone screw standard YY 0018 issued the same day. It specifies the requirements, the manufacture, the sterilization, the packaging and the information the manufacturer has to supply for metallic bone plates used in osteosynthesis, and describes the corresponding test methods. Plates and screws are qualified as a system in practice but standardised separately, because a plate is judged on bending strength and fatigue while a screw is judged on torsion and pull-out. The YY prefix without the /T suffix makes compliance compulsory in China, and the 2026 edition takes effect on 1 March 2028. For a manufacturer or an importer of locking, compression or anatomic plates for the Chinese market, this is the governing document.

This document specifies the requirements, manufacturing, sterilization, packaging, and manufacturers of metal bone plates for bone grafting implants (hereinafter referred to as "bone plates"). The information provided describes the corresponding experimental methods. This document applies to bone plates used in orthopedic surgery to connect and fix fracture ends. This document does not apply to metal spinal plates, craniofacial bone plates, and absorbable metal bone plates.

Note. This document provides information on absorbable metal bone plates; Appendix A provides relevant information.

3 Terms and Definitions

The terms and definitions defined in YY/T 1503 and YY/T 0856, as well as the following terms and definitions, apply to this document.

3.1 Passive surgical implants designed to provide support for bone, cartilage, tendon, or ligament structures. [Source: YY 0341.1-2020, 3.1]

3.2 Metal bone plate Metal instruments primarily used for connecting and fixing two or more bones after a fracture, having two or more holes and/or slots, with a cross-section It must contain at least two dimensions that can be clearly distinguished (width and thickness). The bone plate is primarily fixed to the bone by screws or ligatures.

Note. Appendix B provides several typical types of metal bone plates.
