Intended Use
The XTool™ Device is indicated for spinal discectomy procedures for the cutting and removal of soft and hard tissue in open and minimally invasive spinal surgeries.
Device Description
The XTool™ is an orthopedic manual hand held surgical instrument for use in performing discectomy in open and minimally invasive spine procedures. It is composed of an angled cutting head with serrated cutting edges and a distal guard, and a hollow shaft that connects the cutting head to the handle proximal. The handle has a port for connecting to standard hospital wall or pump suction. Two different diameter devices are specified to accommodate the range of disc heights for which a discectomy can be performed, with the smaller diameter for lower height discs, and the larger diameter for larger height disc. Two different tip angles are also specified to facilitate ipsilateral and contralateral disc removal. The finished assembly working length is 22 cm, Tip Angle is 15° or 40° and the cutter head diameter is either 5.2 mm or 6.3 mm.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies indicate a manual surgical instrument with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No.
The device is a surgical instrument for cutting and removing tissue, which is a procedural tool rather than a device designed to directly diagnose, cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent disease or affect the structure or any function of the body as a therapeutic agent.

No
The device is described as a surgical instrument for cutting and removing tissue during discectomy procedures, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical, manual surgical instrument with a cutting head, shaft, and handle, designed for mechanical tissue removal. There is no mention of software components.

No, the XTool™ Device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • XTool™ Function: The XTool™ Device is a surgical instrument used directly on the patient's body during a spinal discectomy procedure. It is used for cutting and removing tissue in vivo (within the living body).
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "spinal discectomy procedures for the cutting and removal of soft and hard tissue in open and minimally invasive spinal surgeries." This describes a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a specimen.
  • Device Description: The description details a manual surgical instrument with a cutting head, shaft, and handle for suction. This is consistent with a surgical tool, not an IVD.

The XTool™ is a surgical device, specifically an orthopedic manual hand-held surgical instrument.

Indications for Use

The XTool™ Device is indicated for spinal discectomy, procedures for the cutting and removal of soft and hard tissue in open and minimally invasive spinal surgeries.

Comparison to Predicate Device e.

The Ouroboros Medical XTool™ MIS DISCECTOMY Device is substantially equivalent in intended use and technology to the currently marketed predicate devices the HydroCision Arthrojet/SpineJet handpiece (K041233) and the Blackstone Medical Inc. Laparoscopic Disc Removal System (K972768). Both the Application device and the predicate devices provide a means to cut soft tissue, remove cartilage, and aspirate tissue through a stainless steel tube in spinal surgeries. The Arthrojet/SpineJet has a cutting blade () at the tip and a tip orifice that draw tissue in to be aspirated through the collection tube. The XTool™ Device also has a cutting blade at the tip with a tip opening for drawing in tissue to be aspirated through a stainless steel tube. The Blackstone Laparoscopic Disc Removal System also has cutting edges around an opening at the tip that draws tissue in using suction to be aspirated through the stainless steel tube.
