The XIA® 4.5 Spinal System is intended for anterior/anteriolateral and posterior, noncervical pedicle and non-pedicle 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/or lordosis), Tumor…

Read the full statement (162 words)

The XIA® 4.5 Spinal System is intended for anterior/anteriolateral and posterior, noncervical pedicle and non-pedicle 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/or lordosis),

Tumor;

Pseudoarthrosis; and

Failed previous fusion.

The Stryker Spine DIAPASON™ Spinal System, OPUS™ Spinal System and XIA® 4.5 Spinal System can be linked to the XIA® 4.5 Spinal System via the rod-to-rod connector when used for the aforementioned indications in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion.

Except for the staples, the XIA 4.5 Spinal System is indicated as an adjunct to fusion to treat adolescent idiopathic scoliosis when used for posterior noncervical pedicle screw fixation in pediatric patients. The XIA 4.5 Spinal System for pediatric use is intended to be used with autograft and/or allograft. Pediatric pedicle screw fixation is limited to a posterior approach.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
