Summary of the Technological Characteristics

The subject reduction screws and setscrews provide an additional fixation option for connecting to 04.75mm rods. The primary difference is that the subject screws have extended tabs on the head, and the subject setscrews have an extended thread on the break-off portion. These features aid in rod capture and reduction. The materials, thread forms, and sizes are the same as the predicate devices.

IX.

Identification of Legally Marketed Devices

The design features, materials and indications for use of the subject screws are substantially equivalent to predicate CD HORIZON® Spinal System devices for use with 5.5mm diameter rods (K042025 SE 08/25/04) and 4.75mm diameter rods (K091974 SE 09/02/09).

The design features, materials and indications for use of the subject setscrews are substantially equivalent to predicate CD HORIZON® Spinal System setscrews for use with 5.5mm diameter rods (K052187 SE 08/22/05) and 4.75mm diameter rods (K102555 SE 11/17/10).

The labeling is identical to that cleared in KII1457 (SE 09/15/11) except for changes made for the purposes of clarification.

X. Discussion of the Non-Clinical Testing

Non-clinical testing in the form of mechanical testing was not required for the subject devices since the only difference between them and the predicate devices were the addition of extended tabs on the screw heads and extended threads on the break-off portion of the setscrew. Both of these features are removed after implantation.

Non-clinical testing in the form of design verification and validation activities was performed on the subject devices to show equivalence to the previously listed predicate devices.

XI. Conclusions

A risk analysis was completed for the changes incorporated into the subject devices. Based on the results and additional supporting documentation provided in this premarket notification, the subject devices demonstrated substantial equivalence to the previously listed predicate devices.

Device Name: CD HORIZON® Spinal System

Indications for Use:

The CD HORIZON® Spinal System with or without SEXTANT® instrumentation is intended for posterior, non-cervical fixation as an adjunct to fusion for the following indications: 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); spinal stenosis; curvatures (i.e., scoliosis and/or lordosis); tumor; pseudarthrosis; and/or failed previous fusion.

Except for hooks, when used as an anterolateral thoracic/lumbar system, the CD HORIZON® Spinal System may also be used for the same indications as an adjunct to fusion.

With the exception of degenerative disc disease, the CD HORIZON® LEGACY™ 3.5mm rods and the CD HORIZON® Spinal System PEEK rods and associated components may be used for the aforementioned indications in skelctally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion. The 3.5mm rods may be used for the specific pediatric indications noted below.

When used for posterior non-cervical pedicle screw fixation in pediatric patients, the CD HORIZON® Spinal System implants are indicated as an adjunct to fusion to treat adolescent idiopathic scollosis. Additionally, the CD HORIZON® Spinal System is intended to treat pediatric patients diagnosed with the following conditions: spondy|olisthesis/spondy|olysis, and fracture caused by tumor and/or trauma. These devices are to be used with autograft and/or allografi. Pediatric pedicle screw fixation is limited to a posterior approach.

The CD HORIZON® SPIRE™ Plate is a posterior, single level, non-pedicle supplemental fixation device intended for use in the non-cervical spine (TI-S1) as an adjunct to fusion in skeletally mature patients. It is intended for plate fixation/attachment to spinous processes for the purpose of achieving supplemental fixation in the following conditions: degenerative disc disease (as previously defined); spondylolisthesis; trauma: and/or tumor.

In order to achieve additional levels of fixation, the CD HORIZON® Spinal System rods may be connected to the VERTEX® Reconstruction System with the VERTEX® rod connector. Refer to the VERTEX® Reconstruction System Package Insert for a list of the VERTEX® indications of use.
