Indications for Use
The CASCADIA lumbar implants are intervertebral body fusion devices indicated for use with autograft and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft when used as an adjunct to fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one level or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). These patients should be skeletally mature and have six months of nonoperative therapy. Additionally, the CASCADIA lumbar implants can be used as an adjunct to fusion in patients diagnosed with degenerative scoliosis. CASCADIA lumbar implants are intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation systems that have been cleared for use in the lumbosacral spine. The CASCADIA cervical implants are intervertebral body fusion devices indicated for use with autograft and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft when used as an adjunct to fusion in patients with cervical disc disease (DDD) at one level or two contiguous levels from C2 to T1. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six weeks of non-operative treatment. The CASCADIA cervical implants are also to be used with supplemental fixation; the hyperlordotic CASCADIA cervical implants (i.e., ≥ 10°) are required to be used with an anterior cervical plate as the form of supplemental fixation.
Device Story
Hollow, additively manufactured titanium alloy intervertebral body fusion implants; designed for lumbar and cervical spinal fusion; available in various sizes/heights to match patient anatomy. Used by surgeons in clinical settings as an adjunct to fusion; requires supplemental spinal fixation systems. Implants provide structural support and stabilization to spinal segments; facilitate bone graft containment. Benefits include stabilization of degenerated spinal segments to alleviate pain and restore alignment.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Mechanical performance evaluated via static compression, dynamic compression (ASTM F2077), subsidence (ASTM F2267), and expulsion testing. Bacterial endotoxin testing (BET) performed per ANSI/AAMI ST72:2011.
Technological Characteristics
Additively manufactured titanium alloy; hollow tube structure. Mechanical testing per ASTM F2077 and ASTM F2267. Endotoxin limit <20EU/Device per ANSI/AAMI ST72:2011. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at 1-2 contiguous levels (L2-S1 for lumbar; C2-T1 for cervical). Lumbar patients may have Grade I spondylolisthesis/retrolisthesis or degenerative scoliosis; requires 6 months non-operative therapy. Cervical patients require 6 weeks non-operative therapy. Must be used with autograft/allogenic bone graft and supplemental spinal 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.
