Device Description
The subject Site-Rite® 8 Ultrasound System with Cue™ Needle Tracking System and Pinpoint™ GT Needle Technology is a portable device that features real-time 2D ultrasound imaging, customized vascular access applications, procedure documentation, vessel measurement tools, and electronic connectivity (if enabled). The Site~Rite® 8 Ultrasound System has two optional needle guidance technologies available depending on the selected probe. Both available needle guidance technologies are designed to track and display the location and trajectory of a needle under ultrasound guidance. The technologies consist of software installed on an ultrasound system and sensors incorporated into the ultrasound probes. The sensors detect a passive magnetic field emitted from the needle. The software interprets the data from the sensors and creates a virtual image of the needle on the ultrasound display, providing clinicians with a visual representation of the needle during the insertion process. Cue™ Needle Tracking System requires the use of a Site-Rite® 8 Ultrasound System with the Cue™ Needle Tracking System software module, Cue™ 20mm Linear Probe, the Cue™ Needle Tracking System Activator and a Cue™ compatible needle. The Cue™ 20mm Linear Probe contains sensors for tracking Cue™ compatible needles (following magnetization by the Cue™ Needle Tracking System Activator). The tracked needle's current position, trajectory, and Intersection Window are displayed over the ultrasound image. Pinpoint™ GT Needle Technology requires the use of a Site~Rite® 8 Ultrasound System with the Pinpoint™ GT Needle Technology software module, 20mm Pinpoint™ GT Linear Probe and a Pinpoint™ GT Safety Introducer Needle. The 20mm Pinpoint™ GT Linear Probe contains sensors for tracking Pinpoint™ GT Safety Introducer Needles, which contain a permanent magnet within the safety canister of the needle.

More Information

No
The description focuses on sensor-based needle tracking and software interpretation of sensor data to create a visual representation, without mentioning AI or ML algorithms for image analysis, diagnosis, or prediction.

No
Explanation: The device is intended for diagnostic imaging and provides guidance for procedures, but it does not directly treat a disease or condition.

Yes

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The Site~Rite® 8 Ultrasound System is intended for diagnostic ultrasound imaging of the human body."

No

The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components including the ultrasound system console, probes, and an activator, in addition to the software.

Based on the provided information, the Site~Rite® 8 Ultrasound System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • Site~Rite® 8 Intended Use: The Site~Rite® 8 Ultrasound System is intended for diagnostic ultrasound imaging of the human body. It uses ultrasound waves to create images of internal structures for diagnostic and interventional purposes (like guiding needle placement). It does not involve the analysis of specimens taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the hardware (ultrasound console, probes, activators) and software that facilitate real-time imaging and needle tracking within the body. It does not mention any components or processes related to handling or analyzing biological samples.

Therefore, the Site~Rite® 8 Ultrasound System falls under the category of a medical imaging device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

4. Device Description

The subject Site-Rite® 8 Ultrasound System with Cue™ Needle Tracking System and Pinpoint™ GT Needle Technology is a portable device that features real-time 2D ultrasound imaging, customized vascular access applications, procedure documentation, vessel measurement tools, and electronic connectivity (if enabled).

The Site~Rite® 8 Ultrasound System has two optional needle guidance technologies available depending on the selected probe.

Both available needle guidance technologies are designed to track and display the location and trajectory of a needle under ultrasound guidance. The technologies consist of software installed on an ultrasound system and sensors incorporated into the ultrasound probes. The sensors detect a passive magnetic field emitted from the needle. The software interprets the data from the sensors and creates a virtual image of the needle on the ultrasound display, providing clinicians with a visual representation of the needle during the insertion process.
