Intended Use
The Altiva Classic ACP System is intended for anterior screw fixation to the cervical spine (C2 to C7). The system is intended 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 (defined by kyphosis, lordosis, or scoliosis), pseudoarthrosis, and failed previous fusion.
Device Story
Altiva Classic ACP System is an anterior cervical screw fixation system; consists of titanium alloy plates and screws. Used by surgeons in clinical settings for temporary stabilization of anterior cervical spine during fusion procedures. Implants provided clean and non-sterile; require sterilization by user. Device provides mechanical support to spine; facilitates fusion process in patients with degenerative, traumatic, or deformity-related spinal conditions. Output is physical stabilization of spinal segments.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Titanium alloy plates and screws; anterior cervical fixation; provided clean and non-sterile; requires sterilization.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring temporary anterior cervical spine stabilization (C2-C7) during fusion. Conditions include degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, trauma (fractures/dislocations), tumors, deformity (kyphosis, lordosis, scoliosis), pseudoarthrosis, and failed previous fusion.
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.
