The Zenith Pedicle System was cleared by the FDA through the 510(k) pathway on March 3, 2011. It is manufactured by Apollo Spine and classified as a Class 2 device.
What It Is
The Zenith Pedicle System is a spinal stabilization device designed to provide support and alignment in spinal surgeries. It is intended for use in procedures requiring pedicle screw fixation.
Clinical Applications
Commonly used in spinal fusion surgeries, the Zenith Pedicle System is applied in cases of spinal instability or deformity. It aids in maintaining spinal alignment post-surgery.
Evidence Summary
The available literature includes four studies, primarily focusing on outcomes and comparisons with other stent-grafts. These studies are registered on clinical trial databases but lack detailed published results.
Reported Outcomes
Published studies report varying outcomes when comparing the Zenith Pedicle System with other stent-grafts. However, specific efficacy findings are not detailed in the available evidence.
Safety Profile
Reported complications include general risks associated with spinal surgeries, but specific adverse events related to the Zenith Pedicle System are not detailed in the provided studies.
Evidence Limitations
The evidence is limited by the lack of detailed published results and specific data on the Zenith Pedicle System. Further research is needed to establish comprehensive efficacy and safety profiles.
