No
The device is described as a "surgical instrument" for pre-operative planning and guiding surgical instruments, not for diagnosing medical conditions. While it uses medical data and simulation, its purpose is to assist in surgical procedures (osteotomies), not to identify or characterize diseases.
No
The device description explicitly states that the SurgiCase Orthopaedics system is composed of two components: SurgiCase Connect (software) and SurgiCase Guides (hardware). The SurgiCase Guides are described as patient-specific templates used in surgery, which are physical components.
Based on the provided information, the SurgiCase Orthopaedics system is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The SurgiCase Orthopaedics system's intended use is to assist in pre-operative planning and surgical guidance on the patient's body during osteotomies.
- The device description clearly states it's a surgical instrument used to transfer a pre-surgical plan to surgery and guide surgical instruments.
- The components are software for planning and patient-specific hardware guides used directly in the surgical field.
The information provided focuses on surgical planning and execution, not on analyzing biological samples.

Device Description
The SurgiCase Orthopaedics system is intended to be used as a surgical instrument to transfer a pre-surgical plan to surgeries involving osteotomies in upper extremity orthopedic surgical procedures and orthopedic surgical procedures around the knee.
For pediatric patients 7 years of age and older, it is intended to be used in osteotomies involving the radius and ulna.
The SurgiCase Orthopaedics system is composed of two components: SurgiCase Connect (software) and SurgiCase Guides (hardware).
SurgiCase Connect is a medical device for Materialise and a surgeon for pre-surgical simulation of surgical treatment options. This includes transferring, visualizing, measuring, and editing medical data.
The SurgiCase Guides are patient specific templates that are designed and manufactured based on a pre-surgical software plan for a specific patient. In surgery these guides are used to assist a surgeon in guiding the marking of bone and/or guiding surgical instruments to cut and drill according to the pre-surgical plan.
All guides are individually designed and manufactured for each patient using a design and manufacturing process with strict procedures and work instructions. Part of this process is a scientific Stability Model which measures the sensitivity of a guide to movement during surgery. The use of this Stability Model provides a way to find the most stable position of the base plate on the individual patient's anatomy for accurate guiding of surgical instruments. The Stability Model is anatomy independent, thus it can be applied to any bony structure in upper and lower extremity surgical procedures.

Device Information
Description and functioning of the device
The SurgiCase Orthopaedics system is intended to be used as a surgical instrument to transfer a pre-surgical plan to surgeries involving osteotomies in upper extremity orthopedic surgical procedures and orthopedic surgical procedures around the knee.
For pediatric patients 7 years of age and older, it is intended to be used in osteotomies involving the radius and ulna.
The SurgiCase Orthopaedics system is composed of two components: SurgiCase Connect (software) and SurgiCase Guides (hardware).
SurgiCase Connect is a medical device for Materialise and a surgeon for pre-surgical simulation of surgical treatment options. This includes transferring, visualizing, measuring, and editing medical data.
4
The SurgiCase Guides are patient specific templates that are designed and manufactured based on a pre-surgical software plan for a specific patient. In surgery these guides are used to assist a surgeon in guiding the marking of bone and/or guiding surgical instruments to cut and drill according to the pre-surgical plan.
All guides are individually designed and manufactured for each patient using a design and manufacturing process with strict procedures and work instructions. Part of this process is a scientific Stability Model which measures the sensitivity of a guide to movement during surgery. The use of this Stability Model provides a way to find the most stable position of the base plate on the individual patient's anatomy for accurate guiding of surgical instruments. The Stability Model is anatomy independent, thus it can be applied to any bony structure in upper and lower extremity surgical procedures.
Intended use
The SurgiCase Orthopaedics system is intended to be used as a surgical instrument to assist in pre-operative planning and/or in guiding the marking of bone and/or guide surgical instruments in non-acute, non-joint replacing osteotomies
- For adult patients; in upper extremity orthopedic surgical procedures and orthopedic surgical procedures around the knee.
- . For pediatric patients 7 years of age and older; in orthopedic surgical procedures involving the radius and ulna.
SurgiCase Guides are intended for single use only.
Summary of technological characteristics
The proposed device has the same design, functionality, fundamental technology, materials, and software components as the predicate device (K13290). The only difference between the proposed device and the predicate device (K132290) is the intended patient population of the proposed device which has been expanded to the radius and ulna in pediatric patients 7 years of age and older. Since pediatric patients may not be fully grown, the guide might not adequately fit on the patient when too much time has passed between scan and surgery. Performance testing was conducted to address this concern.
Performance data
Non-clinical testing
In terms of biocompatibility, sterilization dimensional stability, cleaning, packaging and shipment, the SurgiCase Guides are identical to the predicate device. No new tests on these topics are needed.
The functional elements on the guides, i.e. drill sleeves, cutting slots, fixation holes, remain identical to the predicate device when used on a pediatric patient. The only part of the guide that requires extra testing is the base plate: the guide might not fit on the patient when too much time has passed between scan and surgery as the anatomy of the pediatric patient is likely to be growing. This changing anatomy is not a new risk compared to the predicate device, but the anatomical changes for pediatric patients are more profound. Several risk reduction measures are in place to account for a changing anatomy. One of the risk reduction measures is the useful life. The useful life period depends on the age of the patient, and the surgical area. The useful life is determined based on a literature study, covering both growth in diameter of the bone, and fit tests. The goal of the fit tests was to determine the maximal allowed growth, which still ensures a good fit. The maximal allowed growth cannot be investigated by a sawbones or a cadaver lab, since those bones cannot grow. The only alternative is to simulate growth for pediatric bones coming from pediatric clinical cases. As such, a fit test is performed in which guides were placed on the grown, 3D-printed, pediatric bone models and evaluated.
Based on this maximal growth and the literature study the is calculated as the period that can pass between scan date and surgery date without posing any risks with respect to the guide fit.
5
Due to the lack of literature on bone growth rates in pediatric patients, many extrapolations were made to the worst-case growth rate calculations and thereby the useful life calculations. Because of these extrapolations, multiple safety factors were incorporated into the useful life calculations, and in addition the shortest calculated useful life amongst all age/gender categories, i.e., 3 weeks, is to be used in all indicated pediatric patients. With a useful life of 3 weeks, indicated pediatric patients are not expected to have bone growth that would affect the performance of the proposed device. The proposed device is expected to perform substantially equivalent in indicated pediatric patients to the predicate device (K132290).
Like the predicate device, the additional use of a scientific Stability Model provides a way to find the most stable position of the base plate on the individual patient's anatomy for accurate guiding of surgical instruments. This Stability Model is anatomy independent and thus is applicable for pediatric bones as well.
Clinical testing
Retrospective analysis of US and OUS pediatric clinical cases helped to further support the safety and short-term efficacy of the proposed device.
Summary
All non clinical testing and the retrospective analysis of clinical cases indicate that the subject device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the predicate device.
