Indications for Use
Foundation™ Cervical Interbody Devices are indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine with accompanying radicular symptoms at one disc level. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. Foundation™ Cervical implants are used to facilitate intervertebral body fusion in the cervical spine and are placed via an anterior approach at one disc level (C2-T1) using autograft bone. Foundation™ Cervical implants are to be used with supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) weeks of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage. The Foundation™ Lumbar Interbody Devices are indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the lumbar spine at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). Foundation™ Lumbar implants are to be used with autogenous bone graft and supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage.
Device Story
Intervertebral body fusion device; replaces autogenous bone graft blocks; avoids graft donor site complications. Hollow cage design; allows placement of autogenous bone graft; superior/inferior surfaces open to facilitate bone growth (arthrodesis) with vertebral endplates. Available in various footprints/heights to match patient anatomy. Used in spinal fusion surgery; requires supplemental fixation. Implanted by surgeons; provides structural support during fusion process; benefits patients by stabilizing spinal segments and promoting arthrodesis.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical studies were performed.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Invibio® PEEK Optima LT1 (ASTM F2026) and Tantalum (ASTM F560). Design: Hollow interbody cage for bone graft containment. Mechanical principle: Structural support for intervertebral fusion. No software or energy source.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine (one level, C2-T1) with radicular symptoms, or lumbar spine (one or two contiguous levels, L2-S1) with or without Grade I spondylolisthesis/retrolisthesis. Requires failure of non-operative treatment (6 weeks for cervical, 6 months for lumbar).
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.
