Intended Use
The FrameLock™ is indicated for otorhinolaryngological and head/neck surgery where any medical condition in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate, and where a reference to a rigid anatomic head or neck structure, such as the skull, vertebrae, intranasal area, or sinus, can be identified relative to a CT or MR based model of the anatomy.
Device Description
The LandmarX™ FrameLock™ kit is an optional accessory of the LandmarX Image Guided Surgical System, previously cleared in K992927. The LandmarX™ FrameLock™ kit is designed to provide a safe, reliable, compact, and minimally invasive means of direct and rigid fixation to the patient's skull for the LandmarX™ reference arc (REF # 960-632). The FrameLock™ mounts using a titanium screw entering a pilot hole drilled with stainless steel manual drill and accessories. A small percutaneous incision is adequate to install the device. The FrameLock also permits navigation using the sterile drape technique.
More Information

No
The description focuses on mechanical fixation and integration with a previously cleared image-guided surgical system, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for image processing, analysis, or guidance.

No
The device is described as an accessory for an image-guided surgical system, providing fixation to the patient's skull. It does not exert any therapeutic effect on the patient's condition; its purpose is to aid in surgical navigation.

No

The device description clearly states that the FrameLock™ kit is an "optional accessory" of an "image-guided surgical system" and is "designed to provide a safe, reliable, compact, and minimally invasive means of direct and rigid fixation to the patient's skull for the LandmarX™ reference arc." Its purpose is for fixation and navigation in surgery, not for diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states that the FrameLock™ kit is a physical accessory that includes a titanium screw, stainless steel manual drill, and other accessories for rigid fixation to the patient's skull. This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, the FrameLock™ is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • FrameLock™ Function: The FrameLock™ is a surgical accessory designed for direct and rigid fixation to the patient's skull. Its purpose is to provide a stable reference point for image-guided surgery during a surgical procedure. It does not involve the testing of specimens taken from the body.

The description clearly indicates that the FrameLock™ is a surgical tool used in vivo (within the body) to aid in navigation during surgery.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
