Intended Use

The Pioneer BacFuse Device is a posterior, non-pedicle supplemental fixation device, intended for use at a single level in the non-cervical spine (T1-S1). It is intended for plate fixation/attachment to spinous processes for the purpose of achieving supplemental fusion in the following conditions: degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies); spondylolisthesis; trauma (i.e., fracture or dislocation); and/or tumor. The Pioneer BacFuse Device is intended for use with bone graft material (i.e. allograft or autograft), not intended for stand-alone use.

Device Story

Pioneer BacFuse is a posterior, non-pedicle supplemental fixation system designed to stabilize the spine by linking adjacent spinous processes. Used in the non-cervical spine (T1-S1) to facilitate fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, trauma, or tumor. The device consists of a plate and spacer system; it is implanted by a surgeon during a spinal procedure. It requires the addition of bone graft material (allograft or autograft) to achieve fusion and is not intended for stand-alone use. The device provides mechanical stability to the spinal segment, supporting the biological fusion process.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Mechanical performance was evaluated through static torsion, static tension, static compression, static locking mechanism, dynamic flexion-extension, and dynamic locking mechanism testing on representative worst-case constructs. Results confirmed performance equivalent or superior to predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Composed of Ti Alloy per ASTM F136. System consists of a plate and spacer for posterior spinal fixation. Mechanical design provides supplemental stabilization to spinous processes. No software or electronic components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for single-level posterior supplemental fixation in the non-cervical spine (T1-S1) for patients with degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, trauma (fracture/dislocation), or tumor. Must be used with bone graft (allograft/autograft); not for stand-alone use.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A spinal interlaminal fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of an alloy, such as stainless steel, that consists of various hooks and a posteriorly placed compression or distraction rod. The device is implanted, usually across three adjacent vertebrae, to straighten and immobilize the spine to allow bone grafts to unite and fuse the vertebrae together. The device is used primarily in the treatment of scoliosis (a lateral curvature of the spine), but it also may be used in the treatment of fracture or dislocation of the spine, grades 3 and 4 of spondylolisthesis (a dislocation of the spinal column), and lower back syndrome.

Implant material, design characteristics, and mechanism of Predicate action for the Pioneer Spinous Process Fusion plate are identical to that of Devices: predicate systems. SE Determination: Equivalence for Pioneer Spinous Process Fusion System is based on similarities of intended use, design, and physical characteristics when compared to predicate devices. Therefore, Pioneer Surgical Technology believes that there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the Pioneer Spinous Process Fusion Plate System is substantially equivalent to existing legally marketed devices. {2}------------------------------------------------ Food and Drug Administration 10903 New Hampshire Avenue Document Control Room W-O66-0609 Silver Spring, MD 20993-0002 Pioneer Surgical Technology, Inc. % Ms. Emily M.
