icotec Cervical Cage: The icotec Cervical Cage is intended for spinal fusion procedures at one or more levels (C2-T1) in skeletally mature patients with degenerative cervical disc disease (defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc and/or myelopathy with herniated disc and/or osteophyte formation on posterior endplates confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies), instability, trauma including fractures, deformity defined as kyphosis, or scoliosis, cervical spondylotic myelopathy, spinal stenosis, and failed previous fusion at one or more levels of the cervical spine with accompanying radicular symptoms. Implants are to be packed with autogenous bone. This device is intended to be used with a supplemental internal fixation system appropriate for use in the cervical spine. This device is intended to be used in patients who have had six weeks of non-operative treatment. When used with the icotec Anterior Cervical Plate System, the icotec Cervical Cage is intended to stabilize the cervical spinal column as an adjunct to fusion in patients with spinal infection (e.g., spondylodiscits, osteomyelitis) and spinal instability due to infection, surgical debridement, or decompression.
icotec PLIF Cage: The icotec PLIF Cage is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the lumbar spine, from L2 to S1, in skeletally mature patients who have had six months of nonoperative treatment. The device is intended for use level or two contiguous levels for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to grade 1 spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The device system is designed for use without integrated fixation and must be used in conjunction with posterior supplemental fixation (e.g., pedicle screws). The device system is intended to be used with autograft. When used with the VADER® Pedicle System, the icotec PLIF Cage is intended to stabilize the lumbar spinal column as an adjunct to fusion in patients with spinal infection (e.g., spondylodiscitis, osteomyelitis) and spinal instability due to infection, surgical debridement, or decompression.
icotec ETurn® TLIF Cage: The icotec ETurn® TLIF Cage is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the lumbar spine, from L2 to S1, in sketally mature patients who have had six months of nonoperative treatment. The device is intended for use at either one level or two contiguous levels for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to grade 1 spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by radios. The device system is designed for use without integrated fixation and must be used in conjunction with posterior supplemental fixation (e.g., pedicle screws). The device system is intended to be used with autograft. When used with the VADER® Pedicle System, the icotec ETurn TLIF Cage is intended to stabilize the lumbar spinal column as an adjunct to fusion in patients with spinal infection (e.g., spondylodiscitis, osteomyelitis) and spinal instability due to infection, surgical debridement, or decompression.
The icotec Interbody Cage System (i.e., icotec Cervical Cage, icotec PLIF Cage, and icotec ETurn® TLIF Cage) is an interbody cage system designed to restore the intervertebral height and to facilitate intervertebral body fusion of the spine. The devices are manufactured from high strength carbon fiber reinforced polyetheretherketone (Carbon/PEEK, BlackArmor®) and incorporate a rough titanium coating. The devices are intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation. There is one type of cervical cage and two lumbar cages (i.e., PLIF and ETurn® TLIF) included in this portfolio. Each cage is provided sterile and is available in an assortment of heights, footprints, and/or lordosis angles to accommodate patient anatomy.
I am sorry, but the provided text does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving that a device meets those criteria. The document is a 510(k) premarket notification clearance letter from the FDA for the icotec Interbody Cage System, which primarily focuses on device description, indications for use, and a statement of substantial equivalence to predicate devices. It mentions "Performance Testing" but only states that clinical data supports substantial equivalence and explicitly notes that the data did not support additional benefit for infection-related indications due to the specific material or technological characteristics. No specific acceptance criteria or details of a study (like sample size, ground truth, expert qualifications, etc.) are provided.
§ 888.3080 Intervertebral body fusion device.
(a)
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.(b)
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.
