Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 15142-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 150, Implants for surgery, Subcommittee SC 5,
Osteosynthesis and spinal devices.
ISO 15142 consists of the following parts, under the general title Implants for surgery — Metal intramedullary
nailing systems:
 Part 1: Intramedullary nails
 Part 2: Locking components
 Part 3: Connection devices and reamer diameter measurements

Introduction
Intramedullary nailing is a method of fixation for temporary stabilization of long bones with reduced strength
due to fractures or disease or both. Because of the wide variety of the devices, some illustrations are provided
in this part of ISO 15142. Medical and engineering considerations influence the design of the different devices
and the choice of a device for a particular clinical situation.
Nails are often, but not always, removed when they have completed their intended purpose of temporary
stabilization.
