What is it indicated for?
The Irix-C Cervical Integrated Fusion System is a stand-alone cervical intervertebral fusion device intended for spinal fusion procedures at one level (C2 – T1 inclusive) in skeletally mature patients for treatment of degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies).
Implants are to be implanted via an open, anterior approach and packed with autograft and/or allograft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft.
Patients should receive at least six (6) weeks of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with a cervical intervertebral fusion device.
