Orthofix Medical received FDA 510(k) clearance for the NANOVATE™ nanotechnology feature of the FIREBIRD™ SI Fusion system. Initially cleared and launched earlier this year, FIREBIRD SI Fusion is reportedly the first 3D-printed titanium bone screw with nanotechnology specifically designed to compress and stabilize the sacroiliac joint (SI joint) during fusion.
The device is packed with autograft and/or allograft, like MTF Biologics' Trinity ELITE, to promote fusion. FIREBIRD SI screws are available in an assortment of lengths and diameters.
