When used as an intervertebral body fusion device, the device is intended for spinal fusion procedures at one or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine from L2 to S1 in patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). As a vertebral body replacement, the device is intended for use with allograft or autograft, and as an intervertebral body fusion device, it is intended for use with autogenous bone graft. Octane™ implants are available in a range of sizes and shapes, to accommodate different surgical approaches and anatomical needs, and may be implanted by cither conventional surgical methods, or via minimally-invasive techniques. {1}------------------------------------------------ K082270 (fg. 2 of 2) "Special" §510(k) PreMarket Notification VertiFlex®, Incorporated #### ર્સ્ડ Intended Use ### When used as a vertebral body replacement: The Octane™ device is indicated for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1 to L5) for partial or total replacement of a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to tumor or trauma (i.e., fracture), to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body. The Octane™ device is designed to restore the biomechanical integrity of the anterior, middle, and posterior spinal column, even in the absence of fusion for a prolonged period. The Octane™ device may be used with allograft or autograft. ### When used as an intervertebral body fusion device: The Octane™ device is intended for spinal fusion procedures at one or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine from L2 to S1 in patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD,) with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin, with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. Patients should be skeletally mature, and have had at least 6 months of non-operative treatment. The Octane™ device is intended to be used with autograft, and with supplemental fixation systems cleared for use in the lumbosacral spine. #### Comparison to Predicate Devices 5.6 In accordance with the agency guideline entitled The New 510(k) Paradigm - Alternate Approaches to Demonstrating Substantial Equivalence in Premarket Notifications (March 1998), VertiFlex® has established, through rigorous design control processes conforming to 21 CFR §820.30, and a comprehensive risk analysis, that the subject Product Line Extension to the Octane™ System is substantially equivalent to the commercially-available predicate Octane™ VBR System. Further, these modifications (a) do not alter the fundamental technological principles of the device, and (b) continue to meet all design input requirements. #### Summary of Non-Clinical Tests 5.7 Such verification and validation tests as were identified as appropriate to address the results of a risk analysis for the subject Product Line Extension to the Octane™ VBR System were completed, and all acceptance criteria were met. #### Summary of Clinical Tests 5.8 No clinical testing was conducted to support this submission. #### ર્સ જે Conclusions The results of all design, risk analysis, and verification and validation activities support the substantial equivalence of the subject Product Line Extension to the predicate Octane™ VBR System, and establish that the subject device continues to meet all design input requirements. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the Department of Health & Human Services USA.
