Intended Use
The ALTUM Anterior Cervical Plate System is intended for anterior screw fixation to the cervical spine. It is to be used in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion of the cervical spine (C2 to C7). The system is indicated for use in the temporary stabilization of the anterior spine during the development of cervical spinal fusion in patients with: - degenerative disc disease (as defined by neck pain of discogenic origin with . degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies), - spondylolisthesis, - trauma (i.e. fractures or dislocations), - tumors, . - . deformity, - pseudarthrosis, . - . failed previous fusion, - spinal stenosis. .
Device Description
The ALTUM Anterior Cervical Plate System is intended for anterior screw fixation of the plate to the cervical spine. The fixation construct consists of a cervical plate that is attached to the vertebral body of the cervical spine with self-tapping bone screws using an anterior approach. The ALTUM anterior cervical plate, screws and instruments were designed taking into consideration the whole procedure. Plates are available in a variety of lengths, addressing multiple levels of fixation. The ALTUM plate incorporates vision ports that allow visualization of post-operative endplate/graft incorporation. Alignment notches on the cephalad and caudal ends of the plate facilitate precise midline placement and allow for Temporary Pin fixation of the plate. To accommodate normal cervical spine lordosis and, at the same time, minimize the need for additional plate contouring, the ALTUM Anterior Cervical Plate comes with a pre-machined lordotic curve. Bone screws are available for fixed angle implantation in a variety of lengths. Each screw head forms an autogenic lock to the plate upon insertion, requiring no additional locking mechanism.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical implant system for spinal fusion and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

Yes
The system is described as an "ALTUM Anterior Cervical Plate System" intended for "anterior screw fixation to the cervical spine" to be used as an "adjunct to fusion". This indicates it is used to treat conditions affecting the cervical spine, which is a therapeutic application.

No

This device is an anterior cervical plate system intended for screw fixation to the cervical spine as an adjunct to fusion. It is a therapy device, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly details a physical implant (cervical plate and screws) and associated instruments, indicating it is a hardware medical device, not software-only.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The ALTUM Anterior Cervical Plate System is a physical implant designed for surgical fixation of the cervical spine. It is used in the body, not to test samples from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "anterior screw fixation to the cervical spine" as an "adjunct to fusion." This is a surgical procedure, not a diagnostic test.

The device is a surgical implant, not a diagnostic tool.

§ 888.3060 Spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis.

(a)
Identification. A spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of titanium. It consists of various vertebral plates that are punched into each of a series of vertebral bodies. An eye-type screw is inserted in a hole in the center of each of the plates. A braided cable is threaded through each eye-type screw. The cable is tightened with a tension device and it is fastened or crimped at each eye-type screw. The device is used to apply force to a series of vertebrae to correct “sway back,” scoliosis (lateral curvature of the spine), or other conditions.(b)
Classification. Class II.
