Intended Use
Precision Spine Navigation Instrumentation are intended to be used during the preparation and placement of Precision Spine screws during spinal surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures in either open or minimally invasive procedures. Precision Spine Navigation Instrumentation are specifically designed for use with the Medtronic Stealth Station 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 for the anatomy.
Device Description
Precision Spine Navigated Instruments are non-sterile, reusable instruments that can be operated manually. These instruments are intended to be used with the Medtronic StealthStation® System to aid in implantation of associated Precision Spine screw implants. The instruments are manufactured from stainless steel per ASTM F899
More Information

No
The summary describes navigation instrumentation used with a pre-existing navigation system (Medtronic Stealth Station) and focuses on accuracy and precision testing, not AI/ML capabilities. There are no mentions of AI, ML, DNN, or descriptions of training/test sets typically associated with AI/ML development.

No.
The device is a surgical navigation instrument designed to assist surgeons in precisely locating anatomical structures during spinal surgery, rather than directly treating a medical condition itself.

No

The device is an instrument used during spinal surgery to assist the surgeon during the preparation and placement of screws, rather than diagnosing a medical condition.

No

The device description explicitly states the instruments are "non-sterile, reusable instruments that can be operated manually" and are "manufactured from stainless steel." This indicates the device includes physical hardware components, not just software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that the Precision Spine Navigation Instrumentation are instruments used during surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures and placing screws. They are physical tools used directly on the patient's body, not for analyzing samples taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for surgical navigation and instrument placement during spinal surgery. This is an in-vivo (within the living body) application, not an in-vitro (in glass/outside the living body) application.

Therefore, the Precision Spine Navigation Instrumentation falls under the category of surgical instruments or navigation systems, not in vitro diagnostics.

Dear Ms. May:

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.
