Indications for Use
The SpineEX Sagittae® Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion Devices are indicated for interbody fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one 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. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis at the involved level(s). These patients should be sketally mature and have completed six months of non-operative treatment. Supplemental fixation is required with SpineEX Sagittae® Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion Devices. Additionally, the SpineEX devices are intended to be used with autogenous and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft to facilitate fusion. These devices are intended to be used with supplemental fixation systems that have been cleared for use in the lumbosacral spine (e.g. posterior pedicle screw and rod systems, and anterior screw and rod systems). Hyperlordotic interbody devices (≥20° lordosis) must be used with at least anterior supplemental fixation.
Device Story
SpineEX Sagittae® Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion Devices are spinal implants designed for interbody fusion. Manufactured from titanium alloy, these devices are inserted into the intervertebral space to provide structural support and facilitate fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease. The device is used in conjunction with autogenous or allogenic bone graft and requires supplemental fixation systems (e.g., pedicle screws, rods, or anterior plates) cleared for lumbosacral use. Hyperlordotic variants (≥20°) specifically require anterior supplemental fixation. The device is implanted by a surgeon during a spinal fusion procedure. By maintaining disc space height and promoting bony fusion, the device aims to alleviate back pain of discogenic origin.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Mechanical performance evaluated via static axial compression, static compressive shear, dynamic axial compression, dynamic compressive shear (all per ASTM F2077), and subsidence (per ASTM F2267). Results demonstrate sufficient strength for intended use.
Technological Characteristics
Constructed from medical grade Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5) and Ti-6Al-4V (ELI) alloy conforming to ASTM F1472 and ASTM F136. Intervertebral body fusion device; mechanical structural support; non-active implant.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1, including those with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis, who have failed six months of non-operative treatment.
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.
