The NuVasive® Interfixated Interbody System is indicated for the following:

CoRoent XL-F System

The NuVasive CoRoent XL-F System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients. The System is designed for use with autogenous bone graft to facilitate fusion and supplemental internal spinal fixation systems (e.g., pedicle or facet screws) cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine in addition to the integrated screws. The devices are to be used in patients who have had at least six months of non-operative treatment.

The CoRoent XL-F System is intended for use in interbody fusions in the lumbar spine from L2 to L5, following discectomy in the treatment of symptomatic degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis at one or two adjacent levels. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The CoRoent XL-F System implants can also be used as an adjunct to fusion in patients diagnosed with multilevel degenerative scoliosis.

Brigade System

The Brigade System is indicated for spinal fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients. The Brigade Standalone System (lordotic angles of 8° and 12°) is a standalone system. The Brigade Hyperlordotic System (lordotic angles of 15° to 30°) must be used with supplemental internal spinal fixation systems (e.g., pedicle screw system) cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine in addition to the integrated screws. The System is designed for use with autogenous bone graft to facilitate fusion. The devices are to be used in patients who have had at least six months of non-operative treatment.

The Brigade System is intended for use in interbody fusions in the lumbar spine from L2 to S1, following discectomy in the treatment of symptomatic degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis at one or two adjacent levels. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The Brigade System implants can also be used as an adjunct to fusion in patients diagnosed with multilevel degenerative scoliosis, and when used in these patients at multiple levels, the Brigade Standalone System must be used with a supplemental internal spinal fixation system (e.g., pedicle screw system) cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine in addition to the integrated screws.

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