Intended Use
The syngo Aortic ValveGuide software is an add-on option to InSpace 3D software with an enhanced algorithm to display the aortic root and to visually assist the physician by placing the C-arm in an orthogonal position to the aortic root plane. The syngo Aortic ValveGuide software is intended for imaging soft tissues (heart) for diagnosis, surgical planning, interventional procedures and treatment follow-up. This software is also designed to visually assist physicians in the diagnosis and treatment of vessel malformations (i.e. Aneurysms, AVM's and Stenoses)
Device Description
The syngo Aortic ValveGuide software is an add-on to the 510(k) cleared InSpace 3D software and a workflow improvement. This software visually assists the physician in localizing the aortic root plane by exact C-arm adiustment. The Inspace 3D application was originally cleared under Premarket Notification K011447 on 08/03/2001. syngo Aortic ValveGuide software offers fast and precise 3D image viewing information of the aortic root anatomy during the procedure, thus providing excellent viewing support of the aortic root plane. This software modification does not affect the intended use of the device nor does it alter its fundamental scientific technology.

No
The summary describes an "enhanced algorithm" and "workflow improvement" for image viewing and C-arm adjustment, but there is no mention of AI, ML, training data, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML devices. The description focuses on visual assistance and precise adjustments based on 3D image viewing.

No.
The device is described as software that assists physicians with diagnosis, planning, and visually assisting image acquisition during procedures, rather than directly treating a condition.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the software is "intended for imaging soft tissues (heart) for diagnosis, surgical planning, interventional procedures and treatment follow-up" and also "designed to visually assist physicians in the diagnosis and treatment of vessel malformations."

Yes

The device is described as "software" and an "add-on option" to existing software, with no mention of accompanying hardware components being part of this specific submission.

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 syngo Aortic ValveGuide software is an add-on to imaging software that processes and displays medical images (specifically angiographic X-ray images) of the heart and vessels. It assists physicians in visualizing anatomical structures and positioning imaging equipment.
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: The device does not analyze biological samples from the patient. Its function is based on processing and presenting image data acquired from an external imaging modality (X-ray).

Therefore, the syngo Aortic ValveGuide software falls under the category of medical imaging software, not in vitro diagnostics.

§ 892.1650 Image-intensified fluoroscopic x-ray system.

(a)
Identification. An image-intensified fluoroscopic x-ray system is a device intended to visualize anatomical structures by converting a pattern of x-radiation into a visible image through electronic amplification. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). An anthrogram tray or radiology dental tray intended for use with an image-intensified fluoroscopic x-ray system only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9. In addition, when intended as an accessory to the device described in paragraph (a) of this section, the fluoroscopic compression device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.

8. Summary of Technological Characteristics of the Subject Device as Compared with the Predicate Device:

syngo Aortic ValveGuide is a software add-on to Inspace 3D. The subject device syngo Aortic ValveGuide features the same post processing software, user interface, archiving and communication as the predicate Inspace 3D. The syngo Aortic ValveGuide software is not a stand-alone software. It interfaces with InSpace 3D. syngo Aortic ValveGuide user function keys are integrated into the InSpace 3D task card. The user function is similar to Inspace 3D task card except for an additional activation button for the syngo Aortic ValveGuide software features.

9. General Safety and Effectiveness Concerns:

Instructions for use are included within the device labeling, and the information provided will enable the user to operate the device in a safe and effective manner.

Risk management is ensured via a hazard analysis, which is used to identify potential hazards. These potential hazards are controlled via software development, verification and validation testing. To minimize electrical, mechanical and radiation hazards. Siemens adheres to recognized and established industry practice, and all equipment is subject to final performance testing. Furthermore the operators are health care professionals familiar with and responsible for the evaluating and post processing of X-ray images.

10. Conclusion as to Substantial Equivalence:

syngo Aortic ValveGuide is intended for similar indications as cleared in the predicate Inspace 3D. The syngo Aortic ValveGuide Software add-on application is designed for use with the Inspace 3D (K011447) and a workflow improvement which helps during visualizing and localizing the aortic root plane by exact C-arm adjustment.

Dear Ms. Jones:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of November 22, 2011.

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 Mav 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into class II (Special Controls), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); medical device reporting (reporting of
