Intended Use
The Neocis Guidance System (NGS) is a computerized navigational system intended to provide assistance in both the planning (pre-operative) and the surgical (intra-operative) phases of dental implantation surgery. The system provides software to preoperatively plan dental implantation procedures and provides navigational guidance of the surgical instruments.
Device Description
The Neocis Guidance System (NGS) is a stereotaxic medical device that quides surgeons during dental implant surgery (see Table 1 below for significant physical and performance characteristics details). The system allows the user to plan the surgery virtually in software using a CT scan of the patient, and the plan is used by a quidance system to provide physical, visual, and audible feedback to the surgeon during the implant site preparation. The implant process occurs in two phases. First, the dental surgeon plans the surgical procedure with the planning software. A virtual implant is placed at the desired location in the CT scan, allowing the dental surgeon to avoid interfering with critical anatomical structures during implant surgery. Second, when the implant plan is optimally positioned, the NGS provides accurate guidance of the dental surgical instruments according to the pre-operative plan. Physical quidance is provided via the Guidance Arm. The Guidance Arm grips a standard dental drill from the back end, allowing the surgeon to grip the drill as normal. The Guidance Arm does not move unless the surgeon applies a manual force to the drill. The Guidance Arm will constrain the surgeon to drill according to the prescribed surgical plan, preventing deviation. The surgeon is constantly in control of the drilling. Visual guidance is provided by 3D graphics and 2D cross sections that indicate the position and orientation of the drill in relation to the pre-operative plan and scan. The visual feedback is updated in real-time so any relative motion between the dental handpiece and the patient properly update the visualization. The patient tracking portion of the NGS is comprised of the Patient Splint and the Patient Tracker. The Patient Splint is attached to the contralateral side of the patient's mouth. The Patient Splint is placed on the patient prior to the CT scan. A fiducial array with fiducial markers is placed on the Patient Splint prior to the CT scan so the virtual plan can be related to the physical space of the system. The Patient Tracker is a mechanical feedback system that is connected to the Patient Splint on the patient, which relays information to the control software in order to track patient movement. If patient movement occurs during the surgical procedure, the system will respond by altering the prescribed surgical cutting angle and position to accommodate the patient movement, which will maintain the accuracy of the drill placement. Several steps are required for calibration and measurement during the procedure. The drill is calibrated using the Calibration Drill Bit inserted into a precise position on the Patient Tracker. During the surgery, each drill bit must be measured with the Depth Gauge to determine the proper length of the bit. These measurements complete the loop so the entire NGS is accurate to the tip of the drill. The NGS is a supporting device, providing additional information and guidance to the decisionmaking process during the surgical procedure. It is not intended to replace the surgeon's judgment. The final clinical decisions are the sole responsibility of the surgeon. The surgeon can at any time during the surgical procedure modify the planned implant positions. Under no circumstances does the device relieve the surgeon of his or her ultimate clinical responsibility.
More Information

No
The summary describes a stereotaxic navigation system that uses pre-operative planning and real-time tracking to guide a surgeon. It relies on physical constraints, visual feedback, and mechanical tracking, but there is no mention of AI or ML being used for image analysis, planning, or guidance. The system responds to patient movement by altering the guidance based on the pre-operative plan, not through learning or adaptive algorithms.

No.

This device is a surgical guidance system that assists in planning and performing dental implantation surgery. It does not directly treat a disease or condition but rather aids in a surgical procedure.

No

Explanation: The device is a surgical navigation system that provides guidance during dental implantation surgery based on pre-operative planning and intra-operative tracking. Its primary function is to assist in performing a procedure, not to diagnose a condition. While it uses CT scans for planning, it does not interpret or analyze them to identify diseases or conditions.

No

The device description explicitly mentions physical components like the "Guidance Arm," "Patient Splint," and "Patient Tracker," which are hardware components used for physical guidance and patient tracking during the surgical procedure.

Based on the provided text, the Neocis Guidance System (NGS) is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • NGS Function: The NGS is a surgical navigation system used during a surgical procedure (dental implantation). It uses pre-operative imaging (CT scans) and real-time tracking to guide surgical instruments. It does not analyze biological specimens.

The NGS is a surgical guidance system, not a diagnostic tool that analyzes samples outside the body.

Predicate Device: X-Guide® Surgical Navigation System (K150222) as primary predicate, IGI System (K023424) as reference device

Indications for Use:

The Neocis Guidance System (NGS) is a computerized navigational system intended to provide assistance in both the planning (pre-operative) and the surgical (intra-operative) phases of dental implantation surgery. The system provides software to preoperatively plan dental implantation procedures and provides navigational guidance of the surgical instruments.

Device Description:

The Neocis Guidance System (NGS) is a stereotaxic medical device that quides surgeons during dental implant surgery (see Table 1 below for significant physical and performance characteristics details). The system allows the user to plan the surgery virtually in software using a CT scan of the patient, and the plan is used by a quidance system to provide physical, visual, and audible feedback to the surgeon during the implant site preparation.

The implant process occurs in two phases. First, the dental surgeon plans the surgical procedure with the planning software. A virtual implant is placed at the desired location in the CT scan, allowing the dental surgeon to avoid interfering with critical anatomical structures during implant surgery. Second, when the implant plan is optimally positioned, the NGS provides accurate guidance of the dental surgical instruments according to the pre-operative plan.

Image /page/4/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for Neocis. The word "neocis" is written in lowercase letters, with the "neo" part in a yellow-gold color and the "cis" part in a light gray color. Above the word is a horizontal gray line that extends over the "neo" part of the word. The "cis" part of the word has a gray circle above it, with a vertical gray line extending upwards and horizontal gray lines extending to the left and right.

Physical quidance is provided via the Guidance Arm. The Guidance Arm grips a standard dental drill from the back end, allowing the surgeon to grip the drill as normal. The Guidance Arm does not move unless the surgeon applies a manual force to the drill. The Guidance Arm will constrain the surgeon to drill according to the prescribed surgical plan, preventing deviation. The surgeon is constantly in control of the drilling.

Visual guidance is provided by 3D graphics and 2D cross sections that indicate the position and orientation of the drill in relation to the pre-operative plan and scan. The visual feedback is updated in real-time so any relative motion between the dental handpiece and the patient properly update the visualization.

The patient tracking portion of the NGS is comprised of the Patient Splint and the Patient Tracker. The Patient Splint is attached to the contralateral side of the patient's mouth. The Patient Splint is placed on the patient prior to the CT scan. A fiducial array with fiducial markers is placed on the Patient Splint prior to the CT scan so the virtual plan can be related to the physical space of the system. The Patient Tracker is a mechanical feedback system that is connected to the Patient Splint on the patient, which relays information to the control software in order to track patient movement. If patient movement occurs during the surgical procedure, the system will respond by altering the prescribed surgical cutting angle and position to accommodate the patient movement, which will maintain the accuracy of the drill placement.

Several steps are required for calibration and measurement during the procedure. The drill is calibrated using the Calibration Drill Bit inserted into a precise position on the Patient Tracker. During the surgery, each drill bit must be measured with the Depth Gauge to determine the proper length of the bit. These measurements complete the loop so the entire NGS is accurate to the tip of the drill.

The NGS is a supporting device, providing additional information and guidance to the decisionmaking process during the surgical procedure. It is not intended to replace the surgeon's judgment. The final clinical decisions are the sole responsibility of the surgeon. The surgeon can at any time during the surgical procedure modify the planned implant positions. Under no circumstances does the device relieve the surgeon of his or her ultimate clinical responsibility.
