Intended Use
The UNiD Spine Analyzer is intended for assisting healthcare professionals in viewing and measuring images as well as planning orthopedic surgeries. The device allows surgeons or service providers to perform generic, as well as spine related measurements on images, and to plan surgical procedures. The device also includes tools for measuring anatomical components for placement of surgical implants. Clinical judgement and experience are required to properly use the software.
Device Description
UNiD Spine Analyzer is a software solution developed for the medical community. It is intended to be used to view images and perform spine related measurements and plan surgical procedures. The planning of surgical procedures can be done either by MEDICREA as part of the service of designing patient specific implant (surgeons will have to validate the planning submitted by MEDICREA before the manufacturing of any implants) or by the surgeon himself. The image formats supported encompass the standard image formats (jpeg, png, gif). Measurements (generic, measuring and surgical tools) can be overlaid to each image. UNiD Spine Analyzer offers the ability to plan certain surgical procedures, such as osteotomies of the spine, and templating implants (screws, cages and rods). Patient specific rods can be ordered to be manufactured by MEDICREA. UNiD Spine Analyzer is a web-based software.

No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the description focuses on standard image viewing, measurement, and surgical planning tools without mentioning any AI/ML capabilities.

No
The device is intended for viewing images, performing measurements, and planning orthopedic surgeries, not for treating or diagnosing medical conditions.

No
The device is intended for viewing and measuring images, and planning surgical procedures, not for diagnosis.

Yes

The device description explicitly states it is a "software solution" and a "web-based software." The intended use and device description focus solely on software functionalities like image viewing, measurements, and surgical planning. There is no mention of any accompanying hardware components being part of the device itself.

Based on the provided information, the UNiD Spine Analyzer 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 about a person's health.
  • UNiD Spine Analyzer's Function: The UNiD Spine Analyzer is a software tool used for viewing and measuring medical images (radiological images, although the modality isn't explicitly stated, the context of spine surgery planning strongly suggests this). It assists in surgical planning and measurements on these images.
  • No Specimen Analysis: The device does not analyze any biological specimens from the patient. Its function is entirely focused on processing and analyzing medical images.

Therefore, the UNiD Spine Analyzer falls under the category of medical imaging software or surgical planning software, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

Performance data for the UNiD Spine Analyzer consisted of verification and validation activities. Software verification and validation testing was conducted and documentation was provided as recommended by FDA's guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained on Medical Devices". Agency recommendations in the guidance entitled "Content of Premarket Submissions for Management of Cybersecurity in Medical Devices" was followed to validate the UNiD Spine Analyzer. The software for this device was considered to be of moderate level of concern.

For basic measurement testing (angles and distances), random lines and angles have been drawn and measured by two different tools: Surgimap, which is the claimed predicate device, and the subject device, and the two values have been compared. Several configurations and values were tested.
For surgical tools (wedge and cage), sets of images were created with the wedge(s) or cage(s) to apply. For each image, the tool(s) was(were) applied, and the obtained images (with UNiD Spine Analyzer and with Surgimap) were superimposed to confirm that the measurements that moved because of the wedge(s) are at the same place using the twodifferent software devices. Possible deviation (angle) was measured.

Key Metrics

Mean error and standard deviation (for distances and angles) were calculated to establish substantial equivalence. Mean error obtained for distance was 0.23mm and standard deviation was 0.42mm. For angles, mean error obtained was 0.2° and standard deviation was 0.4°.
Mean error and standard deviation was calculated to establish substantial equivalence. Mean error obtained for wedge tool was 0.25° and standard deviation was 0.44°. For cages, mean error obtained was 0.4° and standard deviation was 0.5°.

(a)
Identification. A medical image management and processing system is a device that provides one or more capabilities relating to the review and digital processing of medical images for the purposes of interpretation by a trained practitioner of disease detection, diagnosis, or patient management. The software components may provide advanced or complex image processing functions for image manipulation, enhancement, or quantification that are intended for use in the interpretation and analysis of medical images. Advanced image manipulation functions may include image segmentation, multimodality image registration, or 3D visualization. Complex quantitative functions may include semi-automated measurements or time-series measurements.(b)

For basic measurement testing (angles and distances), random lines and angles have been drawn and measured by two different tools: Surgimap, which is the claimed predicate device, and the subject device, and the two values have been compared. Several configurations and values were tested. The mean error and the standard deviation (for distances and angles) were calculated to establish substantial equivalence. Mean error obtained for distance was 0.23mm and standard deviation was 0.42mm. For angles, mean error obtained was 0.2° and standard deviation was 0.4°.
