Device Description
The Stryker Navigation System is a planning and intraoperative guidance system which assists in various surgical procedures. It allows for the localization of surgical instruments and visualization of their position relative to patient specific images and/or patient specific anatomical landmark information assisting the surgeon in performing the intervention at a high level of precision. For localization, active optical tracking based on infrared light is used. Using three linear sensors, the Navigation Camera detects signals from infrared light emitting diodes which are attached to the instruments to be localized. The Computer Monitor displays the navigation information to the user. The NavSuite®3 Kit is a minor modification of the previously cleared Stryker NAV3i Platform. The NavSuite®3 Kit consists of the same main components that were cleared as the NAV3i Platform in K130874. The NAV3i Platform (K130874) consisted of a mobile cart, a computer system, a monitor, an IO Tablet and a navigation camera. The subject of this Special 510(k) is that the system is now modified to provide these same components, without the mobile cart and without the monitor. The computer, IO Tablet and navigation camera are now provided as separate components that can be configured and affixed in the operation room suite based on user preferences. The monitor that was provided with the NAV3i Platform is not provided with the NavSuite®3 Kit. The NavSuite®3 Kit is compatible with any monitor that meets the specifications provided in the Instructions for Use. Like the predicate Nav3i platform, the NavSuite3 Kit platform is compatible with the following previously cleared Stryker Software Application Modules: - K131214 CranialMap Neuro Navigation (Including CranialMap Express) . - K141941 SpineMap Navigation

No
The summary describes a navigation system using optical tracking and image display for surgical guidance. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The modifications are related to the physical configuration of existing components.

No.
The device is described as a planning and intraoperative guidance system that assists in surgical procedures by tracking the position and movement of surgical instruments relative to patient-specific anatomical information. It does not actively treat or directly interact with the patient's body for therapeutic purposes.

No

The device is described as a computer workstation that displays patient-specific images for surgical navigation and instrument tracking, assisting in surgical procedures rather than diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system uses active optical tracking based on infrared light and includes a Navigation Camera with linear sensors to detect signals from infrared light emitting diodes attached to instruments. This indicates the presence of hardware components beyond just software.

Based on the provided text, the NavSuite®3 Kit is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • NavSuite®3 Kit's Function: The description clearly states that the NavSuite®3 Kit is a computer workstation used for surgical navigation. It displays patient-specific images and tracks the position of surgical instruments in relation to a target anatomical site on a patient. This is an intraoperative guidance system used during surgery, not for analyzing samples outside the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for assisting in cranial and spinal surgical procedures using stereotactic techniques. This is a surgical application, not an in vitro diagnostic one.

Therefore, the NavSuite®3 Kit falls under the category of a surgical navigation system, which is a type of medical device used during surgical procedures, not an IVD.

Device Description:

The Stryker Navigation System is a planning and intraoperative guidance system which assists in various surgical procedures. It allows for the localization of surgical instruments and visualization of their position relative to patient specific images and/or patient specific anatomical landmark information assisting the surgeon in performing the intervention at a high level of precision. For localization, active optical tracking based on infrared light is used. Using three linear sensors, the Navigation Camera detects signals from infrared light emitting diodes which are attached to the instruments to be localized. The Computer Monitor displays the navigation information to the user.

The NavSuite®3 Kit is a minor modification of the previously cleared Stryker NAV3i Platform. The NavSuite®3 Kit consists of the same main components that were cleared as the NAV3i Platform in K130874. The NAV3i Platform (K130874) consisted of a mobile cart, a computer system, a monitor, an IO Tablet and a navigation camera. The subject of this Special 510(k) is that the system is now modified to provide these same components, without the mobile cart and without the monitor. The computer, IO Tablet and navigation camera are now provided as separate components that can be configured and affixed in the operation room suite based on user preferences. The monitor that was provided with the NAV3i Platform is not provided with the NavSuite®3 Kit. The NavSuite®3 Kit is compatible with any monitor that meets the specifications provided in the Instructions for Use.

Like the predicate Nav3i platform, the NavSuite3 Kit platform is compatible with the following previously cleared Stryker Software Application Modules:

  • K131214 CranialMap Neuro Navigation (Including CranialMap Express) .
  • K141941 SpineMap Navigation

Performance Data:

A functional risk analysis for the NavSuite®3 Kit was conducted and applied in accordance with ISO 14971, 2nd Edition: Medical Devices – Application of Risk Management to Medical Devices (2007).

The results of the risk analysis for the NavSuite®3 Kit determined that the device modifications which are the subject of this 510(k) do not introduce any new risks compared to the predicate device. All existing risks that were identified for the predicate device are the same for the subject device and are mitigated to a risk level as low as reasonably possible.

Substantial Equivalence Conclusion:

10

Based on the identical indications for use and the technological comparison between the subject device and the predicate device, the minor modifications made to the NavSuite®3 Kit since its previous clearance in K130784 do not alter the intended use or the fundamental scientific technology, and do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. Therefore the subject device can be found substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
