Intended Use
Cure™ Anterior Cervical Plate (ACP) System is intended for anterior screw fixation to the C2 to C7 levels of the cervical spine. The system is indicated for use in skeletally mature patients for 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), Defined as kyphosis, lordosis, or scoliosis), Pseudarthrosis, and Failed previous fusions.
Device Story
Cure™ Anterior Cervical Plate (ACP) System is a spinal implant for anterior screw fixation in the cervical spine (C2-C7). The system consists of titanium plates and screws of varying sizes to accommodate surgical approaches. It features a central locking mechanism to secure bone screws in place. Used by surgeons in clinical settings for temporary stabilization during cervical spinal fusion procedures. The device provides mechanical support to the spine, facilitating fusion and potentially reducing pain and instability associated with degenerative disc disease, trauma, or deformity.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing, including static compression bending, static tension, static torsion, dynamic compression bending, screw insertion torque, screw pullout, and screw torque to failure, performed in accordance with ASTM F1717 and ASTM F543 standards.
Technological Characteristics
Constructed from Grade 23 Titanium (Ti-6Al-4V ELI) per ASTM F136. System includes plates and screws of various dimensions. Features a central locking mechanism for screw retention. Mechanical performance validated via ASTM F1717 and ASTM F543 testing.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients requiring temporary anterior spinal stabilization during cervical fusion at C2-C7 levels. Conditions include Degenerative Disc Disease, Spondylolisthesis, Trauma (fractures/dislocations), Deformity (kyphosis, lordosis, scoliosis), Pseudarthrosis, and failed previous fusions.
Regulatory Classification
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.
