EFFORTMED CERVICAL PEEK CAGES are indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine with accompanying radicular symptoms at one disc level (C2-T1). DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. CERVICAL PEEK CAGES facilitate intervertebral body fusion in the cervical spine and are placed via the anterior approach and packed with autograft/autologous bone graft. Patients should have received at least six (6) months of prior non-operative treatment. EFFORTMED CERVICAL PEEK CAGES are to be used with supplemental fixation.

The EFFORTMED LUMBAR PEEK CAGES are indicated for intervertebral body fusion at one or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine from L2 to S1 in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of lumbar spine with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. Patients should have received at least six (6) months of prior non-operative treatment. The devices are designed to be used with supplemental fixation and autograft/autologous bone graft to facilitate fusion for each spinal region.

The EFFORTMED ORIZABA CERVICAL CORPECTOMY CAGE is intended for use in skeletally mature patients in the cervical spine (C2-T1) to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to tumor, osteomyelitis, trauma (i.e. fracture), or for reconstruction following corpectomy performed to achieve decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues in degenerative disorders.

The EFFORTMED COTOPAXI LUMBAR CORPECTOMY CAGE is intended for use in skeletally mature patients in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to tumor, osteomyelitis, trauma (i.e. fracture), or for reconstruction following corpectomy performed to achieve decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues in degenerative disorders.

The ORIZABA and COTOPAXI CORPECTOMY CAGES are also intended to restore the integrity of the spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a limited time period in patients with advanced stage tumors involving the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine in whom life expectancy is of insufficient duration to permit achievement of fusion, with bone graft used at the surgeon's discretion.

ORIZABA and COTOPAXI CORPECTOMY CAGES are intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation systems cleared for use in the cervical, thoracic, and/or lumbar spine. The use of bone grafting material is optional.

The EffortMed spinal interbody cage system includes cervical intervertebral body fusion (IBFD), transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF), and posterior lateral interbody fusion (PLIF) devices. The cervical cage models are the EffortMed Pacaya Cervical PEEK Cage and Masaya Augmented Cervical PEEK cage. The lumbar cage models are the EffortMed TLIF PEEK Cage, Effortmed TLIF PEEK Cage 4° Angled, Effortmed PLIF PEEK Cage, EffortMed PLIF PEEK Cage 5° Angled, and EffortMed Expandable PLIF PEEK Cage. The system was designed to restore height and lordotic angle in the spine. The main role of the cages is to help maintain the cleared disc space stable and intact, until a healthy bony fusion occurs between the adjoining vertebrae. To help achieve this, the inner chamber of the cage body is filled with bone graft before implantation.

The system also includes cervical and corpectomy cages (identified as used in cervical spine (C2-T1) and in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to, tumors, fractures, and infections. The corpectomy cage models are the EffortMed Orizaba Cervical Corpectomy cage and EffortMed Cotopaxi Lumbar Corpectomy cage.
