What is it indicated for?

The KRD1TM Pedicle Screw System is intended to provide immobilization and

stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to

fusion in the treatment of the following acute instabilities or deformities of the

thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine: degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective

evidence of neurological impairment, fracture, dislocation, scoliosis, kyphosis,

spinal tumor, and failed previous fusion (Pseudoarthrosis).

In addition, the KRD1TM Pedicle Screw System is indicated for the treatment of

severe spondylolisthesis (Grade 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra in skeletally

mature patients receiving fusion by autogenous bone.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
