## Indications for use
Transcend NanoTec Cervical Platform The Transcend PEEK Cervical lnterbody System with advanced NanoTec surface treatment is intended for spinal fusion procedures at one or two levels from C2-Tl in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (ODD) of the cervical spine. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The Transcend PEEK Cervical NanoTec Interbody System is intended for use with supplemental fixation systems and with autograft or allograft (e.g., allogenic bone graft composed of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft). Patients should have had six weeks of non-operative treatment. Transcend NanoTec Thoracolumbar Platform The Transcend PEEK Interbody System with advanced NanoTec surface treatment is indicated for spinal fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients at one or two contiguous levels in the thoracolumbar spine. Thoracic: Tl-T2 to Tll-Tl2, or at the thoracolumbar junction (Tl2-Ll ), following discectomy for the treatment of a symptomatic degenerative disc disease (DDD), including thoracic disc herniation (myelopathy and/or radiculopathy with or without axial pain). Lumbar: Ll-L2 to L5-Sl, for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (ODD) with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confmned by history and radiographic studies. The Transcend NanoTec PEEK Interbody System is intended for use on patients who have had at least six months of non-operative treatment. It is intended for use with autograft and/or allograft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and supplemental fixation systems that are cleared by FDA for use in the thoracic and lumbar spine. AMP Anti-Migration Plate may be used with Transcend NanoTec-LIF interbody spacers to provide integrated fiXation. Transcend NanoTec-LIF spacers with >20° lordosis must be used with AMP Anti-Migration Plate in addition to supplemental fixation. IdentiTi Cervical Platform The IdentiTi Cervical Porous Ti Interbody System is intended for spinal fusion procedures at one or two levels from C2-Tl in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine.
