Intended Use
The Site~Rite® 6 Ultrasound System with associated probe and accessories provide ultrasound guidance for placement of needles and catheters in vascular structures. Ultrasound guidance may occur intraoperatively or percutaneously. Ultrasound imaging of vascular structures, various organs and structures of the body may also be performed. Pinpoint™ GT Technology is intended to provide clinicians with visual tools for passive magnetic tracking of a needle with respect to ultrasound image data.
Device Description
mode ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system designed primarily to assist physicians in gaining vascular access to major veins and arteries. The Site~Rite® 6 Ultrasound System is portable and therefore easy to use at the bedside and in a variety of clinical scenarios, including intensive care units, emergency rooms, operating rooms, angiography suites, catheterization laboratories, etc. In addition, the Site~Rite® 6 Ultrasound System is designed with simple operating controls to facilitate easy operation. The Pinpoint™ GT Technology is designed to track and display the location and trajectory of a needle under ultrasound guidance. The technology consists of software installed on an ultrasound system and sensors incorporated into the ultrasound probe. The sensors detect a passive magnetic field emitted from a needle. The software interprets the data from the sensors and creates a virtual image of the needle on the ultrasound display, providing clinicians with a visual representation of the needle throughout the insertion process.
More Information

No
The description focuses on passive magnetic tracking and software interpretation of sensor data, not AI/ML algorithms for image analysis or decision support.

No.
The device provides ultrasound guidance and visual tools for needle placement, but it does not directly treat or diagnose a disease or condition. Its purpose is to assist clinicians during procedures.

No

The device is primarily used for guiding the placement of needles and catheters in vascular structures and for imaging various organs and structures of the body. While imaging can be part of a diagnostic process, the primary intended use described here is for interventional guidance and general imaging, not for making a diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states that the technology consists of "software installed on an ultrasound system and sensors incorporated into the ultrasound probe," indicating the presence of hardware components beyond just software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device provides ultrasound guidance for placement of needles and catheters in vascular structures and performs ultrasound imaging of various body structures. This is a diagnostic imaging and procedural guidance device used on the patient, not a device used to examine specimens from the patient.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces that it's an ultrasound system designed to assist physicians in gaining vascular access and tracking needles in vivo.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing information about a patient's health status based on the analysis of such samples.

IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens obtained from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device operates in vivo (inside the body) through ultrasound imaging and needle tracking.

Descriptions:mode ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system designed primarily to assist physicians in gaining vascular access to major veins and arteries. The SiteRite® 6 Ultrasound System is portable and therefore easy to use at the bedside and in a variety of clinical scenarios, including intensive care units, emergency rooms, operating rooms, angiography suites, catheterization laboratories, etc. In addition, the SiteRite® 6 Ultrasound System is designed with simple operating controls to facilitate easy operation.

The Pinpoint™ GT Technology is designed to track and display the location and trajectory of a needle under ultrasound guidance. The technology consists of software installed on an ultrasound system and sensors incorporated into the ultrasound probe. The sensors detect a passive magnetic field emitted from a needle. The software interprets the data from the sensors and creates a virtual image of the needle on the ultrasound display, providing clinicians with a visual representation of the needle throughout the insertion process. | |

Use: | The Site~Rite® 6 Ultrasound System with associated probe and accessories provide ultrasound guidance for placement of needles and catheters in vascular structures. Ultrasound guidance may occur intraoperatively or percutaneously. Ultrasound imaging of vascular structures, various organs and structures of the body may also be performed.

Pinpoint™ GT Technology is intended to provide clinicians with visual tools for passive magnetic tracking of a needle with respect to ultrasound image data. | |
| Technological
Characteristics: | The SiteRite® 6 Ultrasound System with Pinpoint™ GT Technology employs the same fundamental scientific technology as the primary predicate device, SiteRite® 6 Ultrasound System (K071204), in that piezoelectric material in the transducer is used as an ultrasound source to transmit sound waves into the body. Sound waves are reflected back to the transducer and converted to electrical signals that are processed and displayed as 2D images. The SiteRite® 6 Ultrasound System with Pinpoint™ GT Technology has also been evaluated with consideration to multiple reference devices where differences in technology between the subject and primary predicate device are present. The subject device is technologically similar to the reference devices, SiteRite Vision® II Ultrasound System (K132942), GE LOGIQ E9 (K092271), and Electromagnetic Tracking System – VirtuTRAX (K092619). | |

indications for use and technological characteristics between the subject device
and the primary predicate device, consideration to the reference devices,
SiteRite Vision® II Ultrasound System (K132942), GE LOGIQ E9 Ultrasound
System (K092271), and Electromagnetic Tracking System – VirtuTRAX
(K092619) was given. The Site
Rite® 6 Ultrasound System with Pinpoint™ GT
Technology met the predetermined performance requirements for its intended
use and is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as or better than the
primary predicate device, SiteRite® 6 Ultrasound System (K071204). Based on
this assessment, the subject Site
Rite® 6 Ultrasound System with Pinpoint™ GT
Technology is determined to be substantially equivalent to the primary predicate
device, Site~Rite® 6 Ultrasound System. | |
