Indications for Use
The Spine Wave Gen II Expandable Interbody System is 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 when implanted using a posterior surgical approach and levels L2-L5 when implanted using a lateral surgical approach. Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis at the involved level(s). The System is to be used with autogenous bone graft and with supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral body fusion device.
Device Story
Expandable interbody fusion system; utilizes stackable wafers to adjust implant height; manufactured from titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V), PEEK-OPTIMA with 6% BaSO4, and commercially pure titanium. Used in lumbar spine fusion procedures; implanted via posterior or lateral surgical approaches by surgeons. System includes delivery device for placement and expansion of implant. Provides structural support for intervertebral fusion; used with autogenous bone graft and supplemental fixation to facilitate spinal stabilization and fusion in DDD patients.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance characterized via static/dynamic axial compression (ASTM F2077), compression shear (ASTM F2077), subsidence (ASTM F2267), and wear debris analysis (ASTM F1877). Coating characterization included microstructure (ASTM F1854), shear testing (ASTM F1044), shear fatigue (ASTM F1160), tensile testing (ASTM F1147), and abrasion testing (ASTM F1978).
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Ti-6Al-4V (ASTM F136), PEEK-OPTIMA with 6% BaSO4, commercially pure titanium (ASTM F1580). Expandable interbody spacer design using stackable wafers. Sterile delivery system included. No software or energy source.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients with lumbar degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels (L2-S1 posterior; L2-L5 lateral). Includes patients with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis. Requires 6 months of failed non-operative treatment. Used with autogenous bone graft and supplemental 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.
