No
The device description and intended use focus solely on mechanical fixation and compatibility with existing MR systems and coils. There is no mention of any software, algorithms, or data processing that would suggest the use of AI/ML.
No
The device is described as a "fixation unit for the human skull" used to stabilize the patient's head during neurosurgical procedures and to facilitate MR imaging. It does not exert a therapeutic effect on the body.
No
The device is described as a "fixation unit for the human skull" and is used to "stabilize patient's head during neurosurgical procedures." While it can be used with an MR scanner for imaging, its primary function is physical stabilization, not diagnosis. The imaging is done by the MR scanner and head coil, not the head holder itself.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical fixation unit (hardware) for the human head, not a software-only product.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
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.
- Device Function: The Noras OR Head Holder is a physical device used to fixate and stabilize the human skull during surgical procedures. It is used on the patient, not to analyze a specimen from the patient.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states its purpose is for "fixation of the human skull" and "stabilize patient's head" during surgery and MR imaging.
- No Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze any biological samples.
While it is used in conjunction with an MR scanner (which produces images that are then interpreted), the head holder itself is a mechanical fixation device, not a diagnostic tool that analyzes biological material.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The intended use of the Noras OR Head Holder is the fixation of the human skull just before, during and at the end of the intervention in the operating room. The head holder enables prone, supine and lateral patient positioning.
The Noras OR Head Coil 1.5T(K060758) can be adopted to the OR Head Holder in conjunction with a Siemens Magnetom System 1.5T to provide MR images before, during and at the end of the intervention. The head holder can be adjusted from adult use down to use for a new born child.
The intended use of the Noras OR Head Holder, in conjunction with a Magnetic Resonance Scanner, is to stabilize patient's head during neurosurgical procedures.
Used in conjunction with Siemens MAGNETOM Systems and the Noras OR Head Coil, it is indicated for use during MR imaging of the head.
Special Accessories are available for use with the head holder for awake craniotomies, pediatric patients and minimally invasive interventions.

§ 892.1000 Magnetic resonance diagnostic device.
(a)
Identification. A magnetic resonance diagnostic device is intended for general diagnostic use to present images which reflect the spatial distribution and/or magnetic resonance spectra which reflect frequency and distribution of nuclei exhibiting nuclear magnetic resonance. Other physical parameters derived from the images and/or spectra may also be produced. The device includes hydrogen-1 (proton) imaging, sodium-23 imaging, hydrogen-1 spectroscopy, phosphorus-31 spectroscopy, and chemical shift imaging (preserving simultaneous frequency and spatial information).(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). A magnetic resonance imaging disposable kit intended for use with a magnetic resonance diagnostic device only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.

Dear Ms. Campbell:
This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of June 13, 2007.
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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.
