spinal plates and screws
Spinal plates and screws are medical devices used primarily in the surgical treatment of spinal conditions. The main function of these devices is to stabilize the spine after a fracture, to correct spinal deformities, or to fuse vertebrae together in cases of instability. Technological features of these implants include high-grade materials designed for biocompatibility and strength, such as titanium, which resist corrosion and provide long-term durability. The design of spinal plates allows for customization to fit the unique anatomy of each patient, while the screws secure the plate to the vertebrae with precision. These implants find their primary application in spinal fusion surgeries, where they play a critical role in maintaining the integrity of the spine as the fusion heals.
