Intended Use
The Pajunk BrainPro biopsy cannula for brain biopsy is a single-use device intended for use in stereotactic and other guided biopsy of brain tissue, for example brain tumors. The BrainPro is provided in a set. The Pajunk BrainPro Biopsy Needle is a dual cannula device made from stainless steel or titanium. The cannula requires vacuum suction provided by a syringe to draw the tissue into the needle. The inner cannula is then rotated against the outer cannula to cut the tissue. The Pajunk BrainPro Access is an optional single-use anchoring and guidance instrument for Pajunks BrainPro biopsy cannula with cutting titanium thread for drill holes. It is used in brain biopsy procedures. The BrainPro Access is provided sterile.

More Information

No
The description focuses on the mechanical function of the biopsy cannula and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

No.
The document describes a biopsy cannula and related instruments designed for tissue sampling in the brain, not for treating a disease or condition.

No

The device is a biopsy cannula and associated instruments, used to collect tissue samples for diagnosis, rather than performing the diagnosis itself.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components made of stainless steel and titanium, including cannulas, needles, and an anchoring instrument, which are hardware.

Based on the provided text, the Pajunk BrainPro biopsy cannula is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis. This typically involves tests performed on blood, urine, tissue samples, etc., in a laboratory setting.
  • The Pajunk BrainPro biopsy cannula is a surgical instrument used to obtain a tissue sample from the brain in vivo (within the body). Its function is to collect the tissue, not to perform diagnostic tests on it.

The description clearly states its intended use is for "stereotactic and other guided biopsy of brain tissue" and describes the mechanical process of obtaining the sample. While the tissue obtained will likely be used for subsequent in vitro diagnostic testing, the device itself is the tool for collection, not the diagnostic test itself.

Image /page/1/Picture/2 description: The image contains the word "PAJUNK" in large, bold, white letters. Below that, in smaller letters, is the word "MEDIZINTECHNOLOGIE". The background of the image is a dark, textured pattern.

Device Description:

The Paiunk BrainPro biopsy cannula is a single-use device intended for use in navigational guided biopsy of brain tumors.

The Pajunk BrainPro Biopsy Needle is a singel use dual cannula device made from stainless steel or titanium. The cannula requires vacuum suction provided by a syringe to draw the tissue into the needle. The inner cannula is then rotated to cut the tissue.

The Pajunk BrainPro Access is a single-use anchoring and guidance instrument for Pajunks BrainPro biopsy cannula with cutting titanium thread for drill holes.

Predicate Devices:

  • Radionics Nashold Biopsy needle Single use K032054 .
  • Ad-Tech Medical Instrument Corporation K924348 .
  • Field Lee Brain Biopsy needle K801760 .

The detailed discussion of substantial eqivalence can be found in Section 12 of this submission.

Sterilization

The contract sterilizer and the sterilizing process other than a company name change (was IBA Griffith Micro Science, and now is Sterigenics) is the same as that used for all Pajunk devices already cleared for market, most of them similar in technology and material to the BrainPro Set.

Technology Characteristics:

Pajunk's BrainPro cannula for brain biopsy with or without the BrainPro Access fixation device is a single use, sterile, non-pyrogenic and latex free medical device kit for brain biopsy.

The special cutting construction of the cannula enables sufficient biopsy material to be removed for a histological examination.

The BrainPro has proven equipment compatibility with the BrainLab Image guided surgery system VectorVision Cranial cleared by FDA under K020631 (see executive summary section 10.0 of this submission).

Conclusion:

The comparison between the predicate devices and the proposed devices in section 12 of this submission demonstrates that the proposed devices are safe and effective, as well as substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
