Spinal fixation plates are rigid, non-bioabsorbable implants designed to stabilize the spine by securing screws into vertebrae. Clinically, they are used in surgeries like cervical, lumbar, or thoracolumbar fusions to correct deformities or treat spinal instability, ensuring proper alignment during healing.
These devices are typically regulated as surgical implants, often requiring pre-market approval or conformity assessments depending on the jurisdiction. They are supplied sterile and reusable only after proper sterilization, with classification varying by country—always check local medical device laws before use.
