About Vitality®+ Spinal Fixation System

The Vitality®+ Spinal Fixation System is a thoracolumbar and sacroiliac fixation system designed to aid in the surgical correction of several types of spinal conditions. The system consists of Vitality+ POWER for simple, controlled pedicle preparation and pedicle screw insertion; Vitality+ PSO for optimal pedicle subtraction osteotomy and vertebral column resection procedures; and Vitality+ HOOKS with an extensive array of additional fixation options. These devices are indicated as an adjunct to fusion for degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, trauma, deformities or curvatures, tumor, stenosis, pseudo-arthrosis, and failed previous fusions.

For degenerative thoracolumbar procedures, Vitality®+ is available in a two-kit pedicle screw instrument configuration. This system is intended for the treatment of severe spondylolisthesis of the L5-S1 vertebra in skeletally mature patients receiving fusion by autogenous bone graft and having implants attached to the lumbosacral spine and/or ilium with a removal of the implant after attainment of a solid fusion.

About Vital? Spinal Fixation System

The Vital? Spinal Fixation System is a subsystem of the Vitality®+ Spinal Fixation System. The minimized two-kit configuration includes all pertinent instruments required for degenerative spine surgeries with an easy-to-follow color-coded tray layout. The upgraded Vital? screws incorporates T27 hexalobe drive feature, one of the largest drive standards in the industry, designed to provide 30% more strength than the T25 hexalobe. The Vital? Spinal Fixation System's dual lead screws require fewer revolutions for insertion, as they can be inserted twice as fast as comparable single lead screws, without sacrificing pull-out strength.

510(k) Clearance for Pedicle Preparation and Screw Insertion Under Power

The Launch of Vitality+ POWER is followed by Zimmer Biomet's 510(k) clearance for pedicle preparation and screw insertion under power in September 2017. The Department of Health & Human Services approved to legally market the Vitality®+ Spinal Fixation System and Vitality®+ Power Instrument System, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act.

The Vitality®+ Power Instrument System includes instrumentation to be used with power for the preparation of the pedicle and ilium and insertion of Vitality®+ Spinal Fixation System screws.
