Intended Use
The Carevature DReal™ is intended to be used with high-speed compatible electric and pneumatic motors. When used with these motors, it is intended to cut bone by drilling, reaming, decorticating, shaping, dissecting, shaving and smoothing for neurosurgical and spinal applications. Specific applications include laminectomy/laminotomy and craniotomy/craniectomy/ skull base cuts < 1 cm3.
Device Description
The DReal™ is a handheld bone-removal device based on a rotating cutter, with a protective shield (hood) partially covering the cutter; following its indications for use, it is designed to cut bone < 1 cm3. The DReal™ comprises a handpiece with a plastic grip ("handle") and a central shaft that curves at its distal end ("tip"). The curved tip is equipped with an active, drill-like cutter that is protected by an extension of the central shaft as a protective shield. The DReal™ has two models, with different angles of curvature at the distal end: Short 45° and Long 75°. Located in the proximal end of the handle, is the motor adaptor (the motor is not part of the supplied product). The DReal™ principles of operation are the same as any other bone cutting tool, as well as the predicate device; it uses electrical or pneumatic power to rotate a cutting element that is approximated to the bone requiring cutting. The DReal™ has an irrigation port on its handle that connects to irrigation source. Irrigation should be running at all times while the DReal™ is active. In case of irrigation malfunction, irrigation can be added externally as with any high-speed, rotating power device, including the predicate. The DReal™ can be powered by an electric or pneumatic motors using a 'micro' adaptor as per ISO 3964; however, it can rotate only clockwise (right-hand, or Forward).

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and material properties, with no mention of AI/ML algorithms or data processing.

No

The device is a surgical tool designed to cut bone during neurosurgical and spinal procedures, not to treat a disease or medical condition.

No

The device is described as a surgical tool intended to cut bone, not to diagnose conditions or diseases. Its purpose is to perform actions like drilling, reaming, and shaping bone.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical, handheld bone-removal device with a rotating cutter, protective shield, handpiece, shaft, and irrigation port. It is powered by electric or pneumatic motors and is intended for surgical procedures. This is a hardware device, not software only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for cutting bone during surgical procedures (neurosurgical and spinal applications). This is a direct surgical intervention on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details a mechanical device with a rotating cutter designed for physical manipulation of bone.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, tissue, urine, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze samples. The Carevature DReal™ is used in vivo (inside the body) for surgical purposes.
