Intended Use
The Steribite® Rongeur is a manually operated instrument indicated for cutting bone during surgery involving the skull or spinal column.
Device Description
Steribite® is a system of disposable manual surgical Kerrison rongeurs. The instruments are offered in a 40° up configuration having shaft lengths of 8 and 11 inches and bite sizes 1mm to 5mm to accommodate variations in surgical need. The devices are sold sterile and single use only.
More Information

No
The device is described as a manually operated surgical instrument with no mention of computational or data-driven features.

No.
A therapeutic device is one that treats or heals an illness, injury, or disability. This device is a surgical instrument used to cut bone during surgery, which is an interventional tool, not a therapeutic device in itself.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "manually operated instrument indicated for cutting bone during surgery." This describes a surgical tool, not a device used to identify or analyze a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "system of disposable manual surgical Kerrison rongeurs," which are physical instruments used for cutting bone. The performance studies also describe mechanical testing of these physical devices.

Based on the provided information, the Steribite® Rongeur is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's a "manually operated instrument indicated for cutting bone during surgery involving the skull or spinal column." This describes a surgical tool used on the patient's body during a procedure.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces this by calling it a "system of disposable manual surgical Kerrison rongeurs."
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. The Steribite® Rongeur does not perform this function.

The Steribite® Rongeur is a surgical instrument used directly on the patient's anatomy, not for testing samples outside the body.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Mechanical testing was performed to assess the performance of the subject device models, 1-5 mm bite sizes and 8-11 in handles, as compared to a similar reference device, K150468, K2 Manual Rongeur:

  • Cut performance: Steris IMS test standard was applied to demonstrate full profile cut in simulated use.
  • Cut force: a controlled load ranging from 10-35 pounds was applied to the handles of each device under test in a stepwise fashion (5 pounds) to assess cut force for a 2mm thick bone analog compared to the reference device.
  • Handle strength: A continuous load to failure was applied to the devices to demonstrate that the force to cause failure was least twice the required cutting force.

Sterilization validation was conducted in accordance with ISO 11137-1:2006, Sterilization of health care products - Radiation - Part 1: Requirement, validation, and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices and ISO 11137-2006, Sterilization of health care products-Radiation-Part 2: Establishing the sterilization dose.

Bacterial endotoxin testing was conducted in accordance with AAMI ST72:2011/(R)2016, Bacterial Endotoxins Test methods, routine monitoring, and alternatives to batch testing.

The packaging performance and stability testing were conducted in accordance with ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11607-1:2006/IR)2010 Packaging for terminally sterilized medical devices-Part 1: Requirements for materials. sterile barrier systems, and packaging systems.

Biocompatibility tests performed:

Dear Karen Warden:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal

Non-Clinical Performance Testing Submitted to Demonstrate Substantial Equivalence

Mechanical testing was performed to assess the performance of the subject device models, 1-5 mm bite sizes and 8-11 in handles, as compared to a similar reference device, K150468, K2 Manual Rongeur:

  • Cut performance: Steris IMS test standard was applied to demonstrate full profile cut in simulated use.
  • Cut force: a controlled load ranging from 10-35 pounds was applied to the handles of each device under ● test in a stepwise fashion (5 pounds) to assess cut force for a 2mm thick bone analog compared to the reference device.
  • . Handle strength: A continuous load to failure was applied to the devices to demonstrate that the force to cause failure was least twice the required cutting force.

Sterilization

Sterilization validation was conducted in accordance with ISO 11137-1:2006, Sterilization of health care products - Radiation - Part 1: Requirement, validation, and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices and ISO 11137-2006, Sterilization of health care products-Radiation-Part 2: Establishing the sterilization dose.

Bacterial endotoxin testing was conducted in accordance with AAMI ST72:2011/(R)2016, Bacterial Endotoxins Test methods, routine monitoring, and alternatives to batch testing.

The packaging performance and stability testing were conducted in accordance with ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11607-1:2006/IR)2010 Packaging for terminally sterilized medical devices-Part 1: Requirements for materials. sterile barrier systems, and packaging systems.

Biocompatibility

The Steribite Rongeur is categorized as an external communicating device with limited contact (≤24 h) with tissue/bone, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and blood (indirect contact with blood through CSF as CSF is reabsorbed into the venous system). The appropriate biocompatibility endpoints that were assessed include:

    1. Cytotoxicity
    1. Sensitization
  • Irritation/intracutaneous reactivity 3.
    1. Acute systemic toxicity
    1. Material-mediated pyrogenicity
    1. Hemolysis

ISO 10993-10 Third Edition 1020-08-01 Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 10: Tests for irritation and skin sensitization

ASTM F2459 was applied to demonstrate residual manufacturing material cleanliness

Clinical performance testing was not submitted in this 510(k).

Conclusion

Steribite® possesses indications for use and technological characteristics similar to the predicate devices. The performance testing demonstrated that the device is as safe and effective as the predicate and performs as well as the predicate. Therefore, Steribite® is substantially equivalent to the predicate.
