Medtronic Navigated Instruments are intended to be used during the preparation and placement of Medtronic screws during spinal surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures in either open, or minimally invasive, procedures. Medtronic Navigated Instruments are specifically designed for use with the StealthStation™ System, which is 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 of the anatomy. Medtronic Navigated Instruments are also compatible with the IPC™ POWEREASETM System.
The subject Navigated INFINITY™ drill bit is a sterile, single-use instrument that can be operated manually or under power. This instrument is intended to be used when implanting components of the INFINITY™ OCT System. The Navigated INFINITY™ Drill bit is also compatible with the StealthStation® and IPC® POWEREASE® Systems. Note: The subject devices are not intended to support occipital screw placement.
The provided text does not contain information about acceptance criteria and a study proving a device meets them. The document is an FDA 510(k) premarket notification for "Navigated INFINITY™ Instruments," detailing its indications for use, comparison to a predicate device, and sterilization information.
Specifically, the document states:
- No acceptance criteria or study details: The "Performance Data" section (VII) only mentions "Sterilization" and that "The addition of the sterile drill bit does not create a new 'worst case' and it was adopted in to the existing product family as detailed in the sterilization rationale provided in this submission since the design, material, manufacturing process, and manufacturing facilities of the sterile subject devices are equivalent to that of the referenced product family. The sterilization justification supports an SAL of 10-6. Based on the information provided in this submission, Medtronic believes that adequate evidence has been provided to show that we have fully validated the sterilization parameters." This indicates that the main "performance data" presented is a sterilization justification, not a study with acceptance criteria for device performance.
- Focus on substantial equivalence: The document's goal is to demonstrate substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices, primarily based on identical indications, intended use, technology, materials, dimensions, and design features, with the only technological difference being that the subject device is sterile and single-use, while the predicate was non-sterile and single-use. This type of submission often relies on a comparison to a predicate device rather than extensive new performance studies if the changes are minor and do not introduce new questions of safety or effectiveness.
Therefore, I cannot populate the requested table and information as the necessary details are not present in the provided text.

(a)
Identification. A stereotaxic instrument is a device consisting of a rigid frame with a calibrated guide mechanism for precisely positioning probes or other devices within a patient's brain, spinal cord, or other part of the nervous system.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
