Product Overview
Our Vu a•POD™ Prime anterior lumbar interbody fusion device provides a wide variety of implant sizes to accommodate various patient anatomies and restoration needs. This truly versatile implant offers multiple fixation options to enable optimal construct strength. The Vu a•POD Prime instrumentation offers a less invasive approach to ALIF procedures and provides the surgeon with multiple insertion options.
Key Features:
• Zero-profile anatomic implant with large graft window
• Two fixation options: SpinPlate™ or bone screws (2)
• Self-locking, lag screw design
• Comprehensive instrument set
Indications:
When used with the Bone Screws, the Vu a•POD Prime Intervertebral Body Fusion Device is indicated for use as an adjunct to fusion in skeletally mature 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. The DDD patients may also have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis at the involved level(s). The interior of the spacer component may be packed with autogenous bone graft and/or allogeneic bone graft, composed of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone.
When used with the SpinPlate™ the SeaSpine Vu a•POD Prime Intervertebral Body Fusion Device is indicated for use as an adjunct to fusion in skeletally mature 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 1 spondylolisthesis at the involved level(s). The interior of the interbody spacer component may be packed with autogenous bone graft and/or allogeneic bone graft, composed of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone. When used with the SpinPlate, the SeaSpine Vu a•POD Prime Intervertebral Body Fusion Device is intended for use with supplemental fixation.
The Vu a•POD Prime Intervertebral Body Fusion Device, when used with Bone Screws or Bone Screws and the SpinPlate, is a stand-alone device. If the Vu a•POD Prime Intervertebral Body Fusion Device is used only with the SpinPlate then additional supplemental fixation, which has been cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine, must be used to augment stability. Additionally, implants with hyperlordotic angles of >20ÌŠ must also be used with additional supplemental fixation (e.g. posterior pedicle screw and rod systems). This device is intended to be used with autogenous bone graft and/or allogeneic bone graft, composed of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone.
Patients must have undergone a regimen of at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment prior to being treated with the device.
