What is it indicated for?

The Genesys Spine Apache® Anchored Cervical Interbody Fusion System is indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine with accompanying radicular symptoms at one disc level from C2–T1. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The device system is designed for use with supplemental fixation (i.e. cleared cervical plating system) and with autograft to facilitate fusion. These patients should have had six weeks of non-operative treatment.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
