Intended Use
BrainLAB VectorVision is intended to be an intraoperative image guided localization system to enable minimally invasive surgery. It links a freehand probe, tracked by a passive marker sensor system to virtual computer image space on an individual 3D-model of the patient's bone, which is generated through acquiring multiple landmarks on the bone surface. The system is indicated to assist a surgeon to perform one (open wedge) or two (closed wedge) cuts to achieve a leg angle correction. Example orthopedic surgical procedures include but are not limited to: Open wedge osteotomy for the lower limb Closed wedge osteotomy for the lower limb
Device Description
BrainLAB VectorVision®Osteotomy is intended to enable 3 dimensional correction planning and navigation for lower limb osteotomies. The SW links a surgical instrument tracked by passive markers to a model of the patient's bone geometry, which is generated by acquiring multiple landmarks on the bone surface. VectorVision® Osteotomy uses the registered landmarks tonavigate the tibial cutting guides to the preplanned position. Leg geometry correction can be tracked continuously until osteosynthesis.

No
The summary describes a traditional image-guided navigation system based on landmark registration and tracking, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No
The device is an image-guided localization system that assists surgeons in performing cuts for leg angle correction, which is a surgical tool, not a therapeutic device.

No
The device is an image-guided localization and navigation system used during surgery to assist a surgeon in performing cuts for leg angle correction, rather than diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it links a surgical instrument tracked by passive markers to a model of the patient's bone geometry, indicating the use of hardware components (surgical instrument, passive markers, sensor system) in addition to software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that BrainLAB VectorVision is an intraoperative image guided localization system. It assists surgeons during surgery by tracking instruments and relating them to a 3D model of the patient's bone.
  • No Sample Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing any biological samples from the patient. Its function is purely related to surgical navigation and guidance based on anatomical landmarks and pre-operative planning.

Therefore, the device falls under the category of a surgical navigation system, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description

BrainLAB VectorVision®Osteotomy is intended to enable 3 dimensional correction planning and navigation for lower limb osteotomies. The SW links a surgical instrument tracked by passive markers to a model of the patient's bone geometry, which is generated by acquiring multiple landmarks on the bone surface. VectorVision® Osteotomy uses the registered landmarks tonavigate the tibial cutting guides to the preplanned position. Leg geometry correction can be tracked continuously until osteosynthesis.

High Tibial Osteotomy is like total and unicondylar knee arthroplasty a common therapy for osteoarthritis. Actually it obtains its relevance it seems more sensible to preserve nermal articular annuit.". long as possible instead of early joint replacement.

Two different kinds of operational procedure are in use. Open wedge osteotomy and closed wedge osteotomy. Open wedge osteotomy: One cut is performed on a planned level of the tibia and when spreadingt this cut open the leg geometry is changed. For the treatment of more common medial gonarthrosis the open wedge on is performed on the medial side of the tibia. The opened cut is fixed with a special plate designed for this treatment.

The open wedge technique provides an easier surgical approach, less vulnerable structures can interfere. But with great correction angles (>10°) the opened bone wedge gets unstable.

Closed wedge osteotomy: Two cuts with a certain angulation are peformed on the tibia. When the wedge, resulting from these two cuts, is removed a gap occurs which is closed by bringing both vutting hanes together. The fixation of this situation is less difficult as the situation bone on bone provides certain stability. The medial gonarthrosis is treated from the lateral side.

For greater correction angels the lateral closing wedge technique gives more stability. But the approach is more difficult and in most of the cases the fibular bone must be cut too.

The whole procedure can be performed without any additional imaging technique.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The VectorVision® CT-free knee software calculates all planning values based on the same registered landmark and parameters equally to the VectorVision® osteotomy software. The initial geometry of the legisted including in same way. For the knee software the registered leg geometry is used to calculate position and size of the used implants. In the osteotomy software the leg geometry itself is used to create the plan of treatment, as the geometry correction is the task. In summary it can be stated the both applications use the same calculation, th output of the VectorVision® CT-free knee software contains several continuative steps until planning result is completed.
