Intended Use
The Malleable Suction™ Instrument is indicated for use in ENT procedures where surgical navigation or image-guided surgery may be necessary to locate and remove fluids, semi-fluid substances, tissue, and bone dust. It is indicated for use with Medtronic computer-assisted surgery systems using electromagnetic navigation and Medtronic ENT software. The Medtronic computer-assisted surgery system and its associated applications are intended as an aid for precisely locating anatomical structures in either open or percutaneous procedures. Their use is indicated for any medical condition in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate, and where reference to a rigid anatomical structure, such as the skull, can be identified relative to a CT- or MR-based model or digitized landmarks of the anatomy. The system and its associated applications should be used only as an adjunct for surgical guidance. They do not replace the surgeon's knowledge, expertise, or judgment. The Malleable Suction™ Instrument is indicated for use in the following procedures: - . Pituitary tumor removal only ENT procedures - CSF leak repair only related or from an ENT procedure . ● - Skull base procedures for ENT access . - Transsphenoidal procedures . - · Intranasal procedures - Optic nerve decompression procedures . - . Orbital decompression procedures - . Polyposis procedures - Endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy . - Encephalocele procedures . - Sinus procedures, such as maxillary antrostomies . - Ethmoidectomies . - Sphenoidotomies/sphenoid explorations . - Turbinate resections and frontal sinusotomies .
Device Description
The Malleable Suction instruments are sterile, single use instruments intended for use with the ENT software applications on a Medtronic computer assisted surgery systems, StealthStation® systems (S7, i7 and Fusion®). The Malleable Suction instruments are electromagnetically navigated devices that are designed to be bendable by hand into a shape by the user in order to customize the instrument to the needs of the surgeon for each individual patient's anatomy and disease. Each Malleable Suction instrument incorporates a tracking system within the instrument tip. The mobile emitter of the navigation system generates a low-energy magnetic field to locating the tracker mounted within the tip of the instrument. The navigation system software displays the location of the instrument's tip within multiple patient image planes and other anatomical renderings. The instrument attaches to, and functions with, standard surgical vacuum suction systems and comes with a cleaning stylet to assist in dislodging blockages.
More Information

No
The description focuses on electromagnetic navigation and displaying the instrument's location on pre-existing images. There is no mention of AI/ML for image processing, analysis, or decision support.

No
The device is described as an instrument for locating and removing substances during ENT procedures, specifically as an aid for surgical guidance, not for directly treating a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The Malleable Suction™ Instrument is a surgical instrument used in ENT procedures for removing fluids, substances, and tissue, and for surgical guidance when used with Medtronic computer-assisted surgery systems. It aids in precisely locating anatomical structures during surgery but does not diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states that the Malleable Suction instruments are "sterile, single use instruments" and "electromagnetically navigated devices that are designed to be bendable by hand". It also mentions that "Each Malleable Suction instrument incorporates a tracking system within the instrument tip." These are all descriptions of physical hardware components, not software.

Based on the provided information, the Malleable Suction™ Instrument is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for use in surgical procedures (ENT procedures) to locate and remove substances, tissue, and bone dust. It is an instrument used during surgery, not a device used to examine specimens from the human body in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description details a surgical instrument that attaches to a vacuum suction system and incorporates a tracking system for surgical navigation. This aligns with a surgical tool, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to test or analyze biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information about a patient's health status, diagnose, monitor, or screen for diseases.

The device is a surgical instrument that utilizes navigation technology as an aid during surgery.

Dear Mr. Copperberg:

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 10 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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
