Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 70 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Cervical disc disease defined as: intractable radiculopathy and/or myelopathy with at least one of the following items producing symptomatic nerve root and/or spinal cord compression which is documented by diagnostic imaging procedures:
  • herniated disc;
  • osteophyte formation;
  • decreased disc height;
  • thickening of ligamentous tissue;
  • disc degeneration; and/or
  • facet joint degeneration.
  • Has preoperative Neck Disability Index score \> 30;
  • Has single cervical disc disease level requiring fusion from C2 to C7;
  • No previous surgical intervention at the involved fusion level;
  • Unresponsive to nonoperative treatment for approximately six weeks or has the presence of progressive symptoms or signs of nerve root or spinal cord compression in face of continued nonoperative management;
  • Is at least 18 years of age, inclusive at time of surgery;
  • If of child-bearing potential, patient is non-pregnant, non-nursing, and agrees to use adequate contraception for 1 year following surgery;
  • Is willing and able to comply with study plan and sign the consent form.

You may not qualify if:

  • Has cervical spinal condition requiring surgical treatment other than symptomatic cervical disc disease at the involved level.
  • Has a condition which requires postoperative medications that interfere with fusion, such as steroids or prolonged non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs excluding routine perioperative anti-inflammatory drugs. This does not include low dose aspirin for prophylactic anticoagulation.
  • Has been previously diagnosed with osteopenia, or osteomalacia.
  • Has any of the following that may be associated with a diagnosis of osteoporosis (if "Yes" to any of the below risk factors, a DEXA Scan will be required to determine eligibility).
  • Postmenopausal Non-Black female over 60 years of age and weighs less than 140 pounds.
  • Postmenopausal female that has sustained a non-traumatic hip, spine, or wrist fracture.
  • Male over the age of 70.
  • Male over the age of 60 that has sustained a non-traumatic hip or spine fracture.
  • If the level of BMD is a T score of -3.5 or a T score of -2.5 with vertebral crush fracture, the patient is excluded from the study.
  • Has presence of active malignancy or prior history of malignancy, except for basal cell carcinoma of the skin.
  • Has overt or active bacterial infection, either local or systemic.
  • Has a documented titanium alloy allergy or intolerance.
  • Is mentally incompetent. If questionable, obtain psychiatric consult.
  • Is a prisoner.
  • Is an alcohol and/or drug abuser as defined by currently undergoing treatment for alcohol and/or drug usage.
  • +6 more criteria
