Replacement screw non-springloaded traction tongs are skull tongs for traction used to immobilize a patient with a cervical spine injury (e.g., fracture or dislocation) and sold under the CareFusion, Boss Instruments, Millennium Surgical, Prezio Health, and Stealth Surgical brand names.

Reason: The reason these devices are being withdrawn from the market by Instrumed is that Instrumed did not market these devices prior to September 26, 1976, and therefore, does not meet all FDA requirements to market the devices as "Pre-Amendment" devices.
