## Indications for use
The CONDUIT™ Instruments are intended to be used with the EIT Cellular Titanium® Cages: EIT Cellular Titanium® Cervical Cage The EIT Cellular Titanium® Cervical Cages with a microscopic roughened surface and micro and nano-scale features are intervertebral body fusion devices intended for use for anterior cervical interbody fusion in skeletally mature patients with cervical disc degeneration and/or cervical spinal instability, as confirmed by imaging studies (radiographs, CT, MRI), that results in radiculopathy, myelopathy, and/or pain at multiple contiguous levels from C2 - T1. The EIT Cellular Titanium Cervical Cages are also to be used with supplemental fixation systems that have been cleared for use in the cervical spine. EIT Cellular Titanium Cervical Cages are designed for use with autogenous and/or allogeneic bone graft comprised of cancellous, and/or corticocancellous bone graft to facilitate fusion. EIT Cellular Titanium® ALIF Cage The EIT Cellular Titanium® ALIF Cages with a microscopic roughened surface and micro and nano-scale features in combination with supplemental fixation are indicated for use with autogenous bone graft in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous spinal levels from L2 - S1 whose condition requires the use of interbody fusion. Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). These patients may have had a previous non-fusion spinal surgery at the involved spinal level(s). Patients must be skeletally mature. Patients should have received 6 months of nonoperative treatment prior to treatment with the devices. EIT Cellular Titanium® TLIF Cage The EIT Cellular Titanium® TLIF Cages with a microscopic roughened surface and micro and nano-scale features in combination with supplemental fixation are indicated for use with autogenous bone graft in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous spinal levels from L2 - S1 whose condition requires the use of interbody fusion. Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). These patients may have had a previous non-fusion spinal surgery at the involved spinal level(s). Patients must be skeletally mature. Patients should have received 6 months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with the devices. EIT Cellular Titanium® LLIF Cage The EIT Cellular Titanium® LLIF Cages with a microscopic roughened surface and micro and nano-scale features are indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). These spinal implants are to be used with autogenous bone graft and/or allogeneic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft. EIT Spine LLIF is to be used with supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage. EIT Cellular Titanium® T/PLIF Cage The EIT Cellular Titanium® T/PLIF Cages with a microscopic roughened surface and micro and nano-scale features in combination with supplemental fixation are indicated for use with autogenous bone graft in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous spinal levels from L2 - S1 whose condition requires the use of interbody fusion. Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). These patients may have had a previous non-fusion spinal surgery at the involved spinal level(s). Patients must be skeletally mature. Patients should have received 6 months of nonoperative treatment prior to treatment with the devices.
