Indications for Use
The CLYDESDALE® Spinal System is designed to be used with autogenous bone graft to facilitate interbody fusion and is intended for use with supplemental fixation systems cleared for use in the lumbar spine. The CLYDESDALE® Spinal System is used for patients diagnosed with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1. DDD patients may also have up to Grade I Spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved levels. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. Additionally, the CLYDESDALE® Spinal System can be used to provide anterior column support in patients diagnosed with degenerative scoliosis as an adjunct to pedicle screw fixation. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of nonoperative treatment. These implants may be implanted via a minimally invasive lateral approach.
Device Story
System consists of PEEK interbody cages; inserted between lumbar/lumbosacral vertebral bodies; hollow geometry allows packing with autogenous bone graft; provides support/correction during fusion. Used in OR by surgeons via minimally invasive lateral approach. Acts as construct anchor in degenerative scoliosis cases to restore sagittal/coronal balance. Supplements pedicle screw fixation systems. Benefits include stabilization of spinal segments and deformity correction. Output is physical structural support; surgeon assesses placement via radiographic imaging.
Clinical Evidence
Retrospective clinical data provided via 14 published articles. Eight articles evaluated CLYDESDALE® and six evaluated the predicate CAPSTONE® in adult degenerative scoliosis cases. Results showed comparable improvements in pain scores (Visual Analogue Scale, Oswestry Disability Index, Treatment Intensity Score) and deformity correction between the subject and predicate devices. No new bench testing performed as device design remains unchanged.
Technological Characteristics
Implants are convex, bullet-nosed cages made of PEEK. Designed for interbody fusion and anterior column support. System is used with supplemental pedicle screw fixation. No changes to materials, design, or sterilization methods from previously cleared versions.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels (L2-S1), including those with Grade I Spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis, who have failed six months of nonoperative treatment. Also indicated for anterior column support in patients with degenerative scoliosis as an adjunct to pedicle screw fixation.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An intervertebral body fusion device is an implanted single or multiple component spinal device made from a variety of materials, including titanium and polymers. The device is inserted into the intervertebral body space of the cervical or lumbosacral spine, and is intended for intervertebral body fusion.
Special Controls
*Classification.* (1) Class II (special controls) for intervertebral body fusion devices that contain bone grafting material. The special control is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device.” See § 888.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(2) Class III (premarket approval) for intervertebral body fusion devices that include any therapeutic biologic (e.g., bone morphogenic protein). Intervertebral body fusion devices that contain any therapeutic biologic require premarket approval. (c) *Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of product development protocol (PDP) is required.* Devices described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.
