MNH and MNI Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System Sulzer Spine-Tech Silhouette™ Spinal System Predicate Devices: Device Product Code: #### Device Description The Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System is a temporary implant system used to correct spinal deformity and facilitate the biological process of spinal fusion. This system is intended for posterior use in the thoracic. Iumbar and sacral areas of the spine. Implants of this system consist of hooks and/or screws connected to rods and are intended to be removed after solid fusion has occurred. This system includes fixed and polyaxial screws of varying diameters and {1}------------------------------------------------ 013196 page 2 of 3 lengths, and hooks in varying designs in varying designs and lengths. The Shadow™ components are product line additions to complement the Ascend™ system components. #### Intended Use The Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System, when used as a pedicle screw fixation system, is indicated for use in patients: a) having severe spondylolisthesis (Grade 3 and 4) at the L5-S1 joint; b) who are receiving fusion using autogenous graft only; c) who are having the device fixed or attached to the lumbar or sacral spine; and d) who are having the device removed after the development of a solid fusion mass. When used for this indication, the fusion mass may not go above the L5-S1 joint, the levels of pedicle screw fixation may span from L3 to the sacrum. The Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System is a pedicle screw system intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of the following acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine: degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurological impairment, fracture, dislocation, scoliosis, kyphosis, spinal tumor, and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). When used as a hook and sacral screw system (other than pedicle screw fixation system for high grade spondylolisthesis), the Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System is intended for use in the treatment of degenerative disc disease (as defined by chronic back pain of discogenic origin with the degeneration of the disc confirmed by a history and radiographic studies), idiopathic scoliosis, spondylolisthesis, kyphotic or lordotic deformity of the spine, loss of stability due to tumors, spinal stenosis, vertebral fracture or dislocation, pseudoarthrosis, and previous failed spinal surgery/fusion. When used for this indication, screws of the Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System are intended for sacral/iliac attachment only. Hooks of the system are intended for posterior thoracic and/or lumbar use only. The levels of use for hook and sacral screw fixation of this system are T1 to the sacrum. ## Technological Characteristics The Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System adds a locking nut to the Ascend™ screw and hook implants. This is substantially equivalent to the locking nut on other predicate devices. The remaining technological characteristics are substantially the same as Ascend™. ## Testing Biomechanical testing demonstrated that the components of the Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System exhibit equivalent mechanical performance compared to predicate devices. Testing included the following: {2}------------------------------------------------ K01396 page 3 of 3 - 1) Corpectomy model testing per ASTM F 1717-96 Standard Test Methods for Static and Fatigue for Spinal Products in a Corpectomy Model. This included static compression bending, static torsion, and compression bending fatigue. - 2) Interconnection testing of individual system components per ASTM F 1798-97. The tests included axial gripping capacity of hooks, screws, and rod-to-rod connectors, torsional gripping capacity, and polyaxial screw flexion/extension static and fatigue testing. Testing results of the various system components show that the data compares directly to predicate device testing and meets or exceeds other predicate devices. Therefore, the produce de results sessing Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. #### Basis for Substantial Equivalence The Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System is substantially equivalent in material, design and function to the predicate devices. {3}------------------------------------------------ Food and Drug Administration 9200 Corporate Boulevard Rockville MD 20850 Mr. Marc Richelsoph President and Chief Executive Officer Spinal Innovations, Inc. 7850 Stage Hills Boulevard -- Suite 105 Bartlett, Tennessee 38133 JAN 3 0 2002 Re: K013196 .
