FDA Product Code NQW: Orthosis, Spine, Plate, Laminoplasty, Metal
Under FDA product code NQW, laminoplasty spinal plates are cleared for posterior cervical spine reconstruction after laminoplasty procedures.
These metal plates are attached to the laminae and lateral masses to hold the opened laminae in an elevated position after laminoplasty, maintaining the expanded spinal canal and protecting the spinal cord while enabling bone healing across the opened hinge.
NQW devices are Class II medical devices, regulated under 21 CFR 888.3050 and reviewed by the FDA Orthopedic panel.
Leading manufacturers include Globus Medical, Inc., Seaspine, Inc. and Life Spine, Inc..
