Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Neck Disability Index (NDI)12 months

Neck disability Index improvement of \>15 pts (out of 100) in subjects by 12 months post operative compared with baseline. A lower score is a better score.

Device Related or Device Procedure Related Adverse Events12 months

Absence of major device related adverse events defined as radiographic failure, neurologic failure or failure by adverse event

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Neck and Arm Pain Measurementpre-operative, 6 week, 3 month, 6 month, 12 month, 24 month

Pain will evaluated by the Visual analog scale (VAS) (place a line from zero where there is no pain to 10 which is the worst pain imaginable), by NRS (circle a number from zero to ten where zero equals no pain and ten is worst imaginable) to or a verbal description that the doctor writes down, per the site's Standard of Care. A change of at least 20 mm will be considered clinically significant. Neck pain as measured on a 100mm VAS at baseline and at each follow-up timepoint. Left and Right arm/shoulder pain as measured on a 100 mm VAS at baseline and at each follow up time-point.

Nurick's Criteriapre-operative, 6 week, 3 month, 6 month, 12 month, 24 month

Disease status as characterized by physician at each time point

Patient Satisfaction6 week, 3 month, 6 month, 12 month, 24 month

patient completed questionnaire on their satisfaction with the disc replacement surgery

Odom's criteriapre-operative, 6 week, 3 month, 6 month, 12 month, 24 month

surgical outcome characterized by physician at each post operative visit

Motor and Sensory Function in the Armpre-operative, 6 week, 3 month, 6 month, 12 month, 24 month

maintenance or improvement in neurologic status compared with baseline will be assessed using a defined numeric scale ranging from 0 (normal) to 5 (deficit)
