Intended Use
The Navigated Instrument System is indicated for use during the preparation and placement of Orthofix screws during spinal surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures in either open or minimally invasive procedures. The Navigated Instruments are specifically designed for use with the BrainLab Vector Vision system and the Medronic StealthStation System which are 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 a skull, a long bone, or vertebra can be identified relative to a CT or MR based model, fluoroscopy images, or digitized landmarks for the anatomy.
Device Description
The Navigated Instrument System is comprised of manual surgical instruments for use with the BrainLab VectorVision System and the Medtronic StealthStation Navigation System to assist surgeons in precisely locating anatomical structures in either open, minimally invasive, or percutaneous procedures for preparation and placement of pedicle screw system implants. This surgical imaging technology provides surgeons visualization for complex and MIS procedures and confirms the accuracy of advanced surgical procedures. Use of these navigation systems provides the surgeon access to real-time, multi-plane 3D images (and 2D images) providing confirmation of hardware placement. Use of the Navigated Instrument System is limited to Taps ranging in sizes of 4.5mm to 8.5mm and bone screws ranging from 4.5mm to 8.5mm with length ranging from 25mm to 55mm. The Navigated Instrument System Medtronic compatible instruments are comprised of Bone Awl, Bone Taps, and Bone Probes only. The Navigated Instrument System BrainLab compatible instruments are comprised of Bone Awl. Bone Taps, Bone Probes and a variety of Screw Drivers.
More Information

No
The description focuses on manual surgical instruments used in conjunction with existing navigation systems (BrainLab VectorVision and Medtronic StealthStation) that provide real-time imaging and visualization. There is no mention of automated analysis, learning, or decision-making processes characteristic of AI/ML. The performance studies focus on dimensional measurements and compatibility, not algorithmic performance.

No
The device is a surgical instrument system designed to assist surgeons in precisely locating anatomical structures during spinal surgery for screw placement, not to treat a medical condition directly.

No
The device is a surgical instrument system used for navigation and placement of screws during spinal surgery. Its purpose is to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures and confirming hardware placement during the procedure, not to diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device description explicitly states the system is comprised of "manual surgical instruments" such as Bone Awls, Bone Taps, Bone Probes, and Screw Drivers, which are physical hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The Navigated Instrument System is a set of surgical instruments used during surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures and placing implants. It interacts directly with the patient's body during a procedure.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for use during spinal surgery to assist in locating anatomical structures and placing screws. This is an in-vivo (within the living body) application, not an in-vitro (outside the living body) diagnostic test.
  • Device Description: The description details manual surgical instruments like awls, taps, and probes, which are used for physical manipulation during surgery.

The device is a surgical navigation system accessory, designed to work with imaging systems to guide surgical procedures. It does not perform any diagnostic tests on patient specimens.
