The Stimuplex® Onvision® system is intended for clinically trained physicians to perform regional anesthesia and pain therapy to target peripheral nerves by tracking the B.Braun Stimuplex® Onvision® needle tip position by overlaying a circle at the given location using the Philips Xperius® Ultrasound and Onvision® System. The B.Braun Stimuplex® Onvision® needle is used to inject local anesthesia or analgesic to the targeted nerve bundle to induce regional anesthesia for surgical procedures. The Stimuplex® HNS 12 can also be used for nerve stimulation when connected to the system cable.
The proposed Stimuplex® Onvision® system is an add-on device to the Philips Xperius ultrasound system (K182529) that is intended to be used during peripheral nerve block (PNB) procedures. The proposed Stimuplex® Onvision® system consists of:
- a sterile, dedicated single-use Stimuplex® Onvision® needle (manufactured by B. Braun)
- Onvision system (manufactured by Philips) which contains:
- a non-sterile reusable hardware with battery,
- needle tip tracking software
- and a system cable.
The Stimuplex Onvision system is also compatible with the Stimuplex HNS 12 nerve stimulator( K070134).

2. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
-
Test Set Sample Size: The document does not specify exact "sample sizes" in terms of number of patients or images for a dedicated test set in the way a clinical trial would. The testing described is primarily non-clinical, including bench-top testing, and a preclinical cadaver study.
- For bench-top testing, "an artificial media" was used. The number of tests/runs is not specified.
- For preclinical testing, "human cadaver" was used. The number of cadavers or distinct use cases is not specified.
- Usability evaluation was performed with "anesthesiologist(s)" in a simulated environment; the number of participants is not specified.
-
Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin for the non-clinical and preclinical testing data. Philips Medical Systems Nederland B.V. (The Netherlands) is the submitter. The studies are described as "nonclinical testing" and "preclinical testing," suggesting they are newly generated specifically for this submission (prospective in that sense, rather than retrospective analysis of existing data).
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)
- Number of Experts: For the preclinical cadaver study and usability evaluation, "physician (anesthesiologist)" or "anesthesiologist" were involved. The exact number of individuals is not specified.
- Qualifications of Experts: The experts were identified as "clinically trained physicians" or specifically "anesthesiologist(s)." No further details about their experience level (e.g., years of experience) are provided. Their role appears to be as users and evaluators of the device's performance in a simulated/cadaver environment, rather than establishing numerical "ground truth" data points for an algorithm in an image dataset.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
The document does not describe any specific adjudication method (like 2+1 or 3+1) for establishing ground truth, as the testing performed is not a multi-reader imaging study. The "ground truth" for the non-clinical tests would be defined by the pre-specified technical requirements and measurements, and for the cadaver study and usability, the observed operational success and safety aspects assessed by the participating anesthesiologist(s).
5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance
No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was conducted or described in the provided text. The device is a "needle tip tracking system" used during regional anesthesia, not an AI-assisted diagnostic imaging device requiring human reader improvement comparison. The FDA states, "No clinical testing was required as substantial equivalence was demonstrated by the attributes of intended use, technological characteristics, and non-clinical testing."
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
The document implies standalone performance testing of the system's components and the integrated system during bench-top testing. For example, "Needle tip position" verification in artificial media would be an assessment of the algorithm's performance. However, the exact "standalone" performance metrics (e.g., accuracy of needle tip tracking in mm) are not quantified in the text. The closest is the statement that "functional and performance testing to internal specifications" was conducted and "Non-clinical validation testing has been performed to validate that the proposed Stimuplex® Onvision® system conforms its intended use and user needs."
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
The "ground truth" for the performance evaluation can be inferred from the types of testing:
- Bench-top testing: The ground truth would be defined by engineering specifications and physical measurements (e.g., for flowrate, liquid tightness, accuracy of simulated needle tip position).
- Preclinical Cadaver Testing: The ground truth for this validation would be the successful execution of the specified workflow, the system functioning as intended, and the evaluation of safety measures within the simulated clinical environment, assessed by the anesthesiologist.
- Usability Evaluation: The ground truth would be based on the qualitative and quantitative observations of user interaction, identification of usability issues, and the overall assessment by the anesthesiologists that the system is safe and effective for its intended use and environment.
No pathological or outcomes data-based ground truth is discussed, as this is a device for real-time guidance during a procedure, not a diagnostic device.
8. The sample size for the training set
The document does not mention any "training set." This type of device (needle tip tracking system) is not typically developed using machine learning models that require a separate, large training set of data in the way AI/ML algorithms for image analysis are. The "training" in this context refers to the development and refinement of the tracking algorithm based on engineering principles and iterative testing, not statistical model training.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
As no training set (in the AI/ML sense) is described, the concept of establishing ground truth for it is not applicable here. The device's functionality is based on its physical design and real-time sensor processing, not a trained AI model.

PREDICATE DEVICES:
- Primary predicate device: SonixGPS Nerve Block Needle Kit, Ultrasonix ● Medical Corporation (K121812)
- Additional predicate devices: ●
DEVICE DESCRIPTION:
The proposed Stimuplex® Onvision® system is an add-on device to the Philips Xperius ultrasound system (K182529) that is intended to be used during peripheral nerve block (PNB) procedures. The proposed Stimuplex® Onvision® system consists of:
{4}------------------------------------------------
- Onvision® dedicated single-use Stimuplex® • a sterile, needle(manufactured by B. Braun)
- Onvision system (manufactured by Philips) which contains: ●
- o a non-sterile reusable hardware with battery,
- o needle tip tracking software
- o and a system cable.
The Stimuplex Onvision system is also compatible with the Stimuplex HNS 12 nerve stimulator( K070134).
INDICATIONS FOR USE:
The Stimuplex® Onvision® System is intended for clinically trained physicians to perform reqional anesthesia and pain therapy to target peripheral nerves by tracking the B.Braun Stimuplex® Onvision® needle tip position by overlaving a circle at the given location using the Philips Xperius® Ultrasound and Onvision® System. The B.Braun Stimuplex® Onvision® needle is used to inject local anesthesia or analgesic to the targeted nerve bundle to induce regional anesthesia for surgical procedures. The Stimuplex® HNS 12 can also be used for nerve stimulation when connected to the system cable.
TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS:
The Stimuplex® Onvision® system has the same intended use as the primary predicate device of SonixGPS Nerve Block Needle kit (K121812), and an additional predicate device of Stimuplex D Plus Insulated Echogenic Needle(K100241). It also has the same intended use as another additional predicate device of PercuNav Image Fusion and Interventional Navigation (K170716) for the purpose of use during PNB procedures (nerve block and pain management). The predicate device of PercuNav has wider scope of intended use in other procedures.
Both proposed device and primary predicate device of SonixGPS needle kit:
- contain a needle to inject a single dose of anesthetic or analgesic for the ● purpose of regional anesthesia and pain management during PNB procedures
- contain a tracking technology to calculate the position of needle tip and . display the position on live ultrasound image
For the tracking technology, the proposed device and the primary predicate device and an additional predicate device of PercuNav:
- use of an external energy field [ultrasound (acoustic) vs electromagnetic] ● for tracking
- use the ultrasound transducer for image processing
- overlay/fuse image of tracked instrument / needle with live ultrasound ● image
- calculate location of the tracked instrument / needle in 3D and ● visualization in 2D ultrasound image
{5}------------------------------------------------
- use real-time visualization of Ultrasound during interventional procedure ●
The proposed Stimuplex Onvision needle has fundamentally the same materials of composition as the additional predicate device of Stimuplex D Plus needle. and both the proposed and predicate devices are covered and insulated needles.
There is technological difference between the proposed and predicate devices. Stimuplex® Onvision® system uses ultrasound (acoustic) low energy field while SonixGPS needle and PercuNav employs electromagnetic energy field for tracking the needle. They are all using an external low energy field. The proposed Stimuplex® Onvision® System, SonixGPS needle and PercuNav calculate the positional information of tracked instrument/needle by utilizing the signal converted from external energy field, and overlay/fuse the image of tracked instrument/needle with ultrasound image.
The technological difference does not raise any new questions regarding safety and effectiveness, with the assessment performed in multiple aspects, including electrical safety, EMC evaluation, thermal effect etc.
Based on the information provided above, the Stimuplex Onvision system is considered substantially equivalent to the predicate devices, SonixGPS Nerve Block Needle Kit, PercuNav and Stimuplex D Plus needle, from a technical characteristics perspective.

- Preclinical testing on human cadaver was performed with physician ● (anesthesiologist) in a simulated clinical environment. The participants executed the test in the form of a system workflow to validate the intended use, user needs, and effectiveness of the safety related measure. As part of the validation, the implemented software was evaluated as part of the workflow. Results demonstrated all tests were passed.
- Usability evaluation in accordance with IEC 62366-1 was performed ● with anesthesiologist in a simulated use environment. Results from the usability evaluation demonstrated the proposed Stimuplex Onvision system is safe and effective for the intended use, users and use environment.
CONCLUSION:
The proposed Stimuplex Onvision system is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices, in terms of intended use, technological characteristics and safety and effectiveness.
Substantial equivalence was demonstrated by non-clinical performance tests provided in this 510(k) premarket notification. Results of the functional and performance testing conducted on the proposed device demonstrate that the Stimuplex® Onvision® system complies with user need requirements as well as the requirements specified in the international and FDA-recognized consensus standards, and meets the acceptance criteria and is adequate for its intended use. It is considered substantially equivalent to the predicate device in terms of safety and effectiveness. The differences, between proposed device and predicate device, do not raise any new issues of safety and effectiveness. Therefore, proposed Stimuplex® Onvision® system is as safe and effective as predicate devices and substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
