Brief Summary

The purpose of this clinical study is to collect performance and safety data for post-market Medtronic devices indicated for cranial and/or spinal indication(s).

Subjects are enrolled and followed postoperatively to 24 months. The Ailliance clinical study is intended to collect data congruous with routine clinical care practices.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Surgical success (for any Medtronic eligible market-released Advanced Energy device(s) used)Discharge (from Index Surgery completion to 14 days post-operatively)

Defined by amount of: 1) blood loss (mL) during surgery and/or 2) total operation time and/or 3) length of stay in the hospital (measured from surgery completion to discharge), and/or 4) investigator opinion on whether the device(s) directly assisted in the completion of surgery

Fusion Success (for any Medtronic eligible market-released Interbodies and Biologics, Other Spinal Hardware, and/or Rods and Screws device(s) used)12 months

Fusion success at 12-months is determined through evaluation of radiographic evidence (X-ray and/or CT scan) by the investigator by: (1) Confirming the presence of bone bridging, and (2) if using the Brantigan \& Steffee's Classification scale: a score D and/or E are determined.

Surgical performance (for any Medtronic eligible market-released Powered Systems, Instruments, and Imaging device(s) used)Index Surgery

Surgical performance, as defined as the rate at which the device directly assisted in the completion of surgery in the investigator's opinion.

If O-Arm used: whether O-Arm was utilized for validation of implant placement during the surgery.

Device performance (for any Medtronic eligible market-released Robotics and Navigation device(s) used)24 months

Robotics: Planned number of screws prior to index surgery compared to number of screws device assisted with placement during surgery. Navigation: Whether or not device was utilized for validation of screw placement during surgery.

Deformity correction (for any Medtronic eligible market-released Spinal Tethers device(s) used)12 months

Defined by the change of Cobb angle at 12-month

Stabilization [for any Medtronic eligible market-released device(s) used from the following product groups: Other Spinal Hardware]Up to 12 months

* Stabilization is the radiographic verification of no noticeable hardware and/or implant loosening, the presence of the hardware in the appropriate position without cage subsidence and/or implant loosening, and noticeable stable alignment of the spine post-surgery.

* Since all products are market-released, assessment for stabilization will be completed by the investigator.

* Stabilization will be assessed by the collection of radiographic evidence (X-Ray(s) and CT-scan(s)).

Deformity Correction [for specified Medtronic eligible market-released device(s) used from the following product groups: Spinal Tethers]12 months

* Deformity correction is defined by the change of Cobb angle at the 12-month postoperative visit compared to baseline.

* Assessment(s) for deformity correction will be completed by the investigator. The investigator will determine whether the subject meets requirements of deformity correction based on the comparison of the Cobb angle measurements at all postoperative visits, when compared to the subject's baseline assessments.

* Cobb angle measurements will be provided through collection of radiographic evidence (X-Ray(s) and CT-scan(s)) and assessed by the investigator.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Rate of Device-related Adverse Events any Medtronic eligible market-released Cranial & Spinal Technologies (CST) device(s) as aligned with ISO 14155 standards24 months

The secondary endpoint is defined as the rate of occurrence for device-related adverse events

Stabilization [for any Medtronic eligible market-released device(s) used from the following product groups: Interbodies and Biologics, Rods and Screws]Up to 12 months

* Stabilization is the radiographic verification of no noticeable hardware and/or implant loosening, the presence of the hardware in the appropriate position without cage subsidence and/or implant loosening, and noticeable stable alignment of the spine post-surgery.

* Since all products are market-released, assessment for stabilization will be completed by the investigator.

* Stabilization will be assessed by the collection of radiographic evidence (X-Ray(s) and CT-scan(s)).

Deformity Correction [for specified Medtronic eligible market-released device(s) used from the following product groups: Rods and Screws]12 months

* Deformity correction is defined by the change of Cobb angle at the 12-month postoperative visit compared to baseline.

* Assessment(s) for deformity correction will be completed by the investigator. The investigator will determine whether the subject meets requirements of deformity correction based on the comparison of the Cobb angle measurements at all postoperative visits, when compared to the subject's baseline assessments.

* Cobb angle measurements will be provided through collection of radiographic evidence (X-Ray(s) and CT-scan(s)) and assessed by the investigator.
