The FOCUS Spinal System is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar and sacral spine. And the FOCUS Spinal System can be used in an open approach and a percutaneous approach with MIS instrumentation.

The FOCUS Spinal System is intended for noncervical pedicle fixation and nonpedicle fixation 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, kyphosis, and for lordosis); tumor; pseudarthrosis; and failed previous fusion in skeletally mature patients.

When used in a percutaneous approach with MIS Instrumentation, the FOCUS Spinal Systems are intended for noncervical pedicle fixation and nonpedicle fixation 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, kyphosis, and for lordosis); tumor; pseudoarthrosis; and failed previous fusion in skeletally mature patients.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
