Intended Use

Image Guided Surgical Instruments for Knee Applications are intended to assis the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures in either open or percutaneous procedures. Image Guided Surgical Instruments for Knee Applications are indicated for use in total knee procedures, including but not limited to, primary and revision total knee arthroplasty and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty, in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate, and where a reference to a rigid anatomical structure. such as a long bone. can be identified relative to a CT or MR based model or fluoroscopy images of the anatomy.

Image Guided Surgical Instruments for Knee Applications are intended as an aid for precisely locating anatomical structures in either open or percutaneous procedures. Image Guided Surgical Instruments for Knee Applications are indicated for any medical condition of the knee in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate, and where reference to a rigid anatomical structure such as a long bone can be identified relative to a CT or MR based model or fluoroscopy images of the anatomy.

Example procedures include, but are not limited to:

Orthopedic Procedures:

Primary Total Knee Arthroplasty

Revison Total Knee Arthroplasty

Unicompartmental Knee Replacement

Device Description

The Smith & Nephew Image Guided Instruments for Knee Applications are commercially available instruments that have been modified by incorporating a dovetail mount that will allow infrared LED (light emitting diodes) or passive markers image guided arrays to be fixed onto the instruments. This will allow the instruments to be tracked in real time in the surgical field.

Image Guided Surgical Instruments for Knee Applications are similar to currently legally marketed Class II stereotactic instruments in that they incorporate infrared LED (light emitting diodes) or passive markers onto the instruments that allow the instruments to be tracked in real time in the surgical field.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) Summary for Image Guided Surgical Instruments for Knee Applications. It details the device description, intended use, and substantial equivalence to predicate devices. However, it does not contain any information about acceptance criteria, device performance, a study conducted to prove performance, sample sizes, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, or standalone algorithm performance.

The document states that the new device is "similar to currently legally marketed Class II stereotactic instruments in that they incorporate infrared LED (light emitting diodes) or passive markers onto the instruments that allow the instruments to be tracked in real time in the surgical field." This indicates that the 510(k) submission relied on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing devices, rather than presenting a new study with performance metrics against acceptance criteria.

Therefore, I cannot populate the requested table or answer the specific questions about a study, as the provided text does not contain that information.

Trade/Device Name: Smith & Nephew Image Guided Surgical Instruments for knee applications Regulation Number: 882.4560 Regulation Name: Stereotaxic instrument Regulatory Class: II Product Code: HAW Dated: November 21, 2001 Received: November 23, 2001

Dear Ms. Naff:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
