Intended Use
The SPINEART® Navigation Instrument System reusable instruments are intended to be used during the preparation and placement of Spineart screws during spinal surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures in either open or minimally invasive procedures. The SPINEART® Navigation Instrument System reusable instruments are specifically designed for use with the Medtronic 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 for the anatomy.
Device Description
The SPINEART® Navigation Instrument System reusable instruments are surgical instruments for use with the Medtronic® StealthStation® Navigation System to assist surgeons in precisely locating anatomical structures in either open, minimally invasive, or percutaneous procedures for preparation and placement of pedicle screw system implants. The SPINEART® Navigation Instrument System includes the following: Screwdrivers, Taps, Drills, and Drill Guides. The SPINEART® Navigation Instrument System are to be used with the following Spineart Systems: - ■Romeo® 2 ▪Romeo® 2 MIS ▪Perla® Cervico-thoracic Fixation System All instruments are made of stainless steel per ASTM F899. Taps range in size from Ø4mm to Ø7.5mm for the Romeo® 2 systems and from Ø3mm to Ø4mm for the Perla system. The SPINEART® Navigation Instruments are not compatible with implants from other manufacturers. The SPINEART® Navigation Instrument System are designed for use only with Medtronic StealthStation Navigation System hardware and software.
More Information

No
The document describes surgical instruments used with a navigation system, but there is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The navigation system itself (Medtronic StealthStation) is mentioned, but its specific technology is not detailed in this summary, and the focus is on the instruments' compatibility and accuracy.

No.
This device is a surgical instrument system used to assist surgeons in precisely locating anatomical structures during spinal surgery for the placement of screws, rather than directly treating a medical condition.

No

This device is a surgical navigation instrument system, not a diagnostic device. Its purpose is to assist surgeons in precisely locating anatomical structures during spinal surgery for the placement of screws, rather than to identify or determine the nature of a disease or condition. It is used with a navigation system (Medtronic StealthStation), which does use imaging data, but the instruments themselves are tools for surgical guidance.

No

The device description explicitly lists physical instruments (Screwdrivers, Taps, Drills, and Drill Guides) made of stainless steel, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The SPINEART® Navigation Instrument System is a set of surgical instruments used during spinal surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures and placing screws. It interacts directly with the patient's body during a surgical procedure.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for use during spinal surgery to assist in the preparation and placement of screws. It does not involve the analysis of specimens taken from the body.

The device is a surgical navigation instrument system, which falls under the category of surgical devices, not in vitro diagnostics.

Summary of Performance Studies

Design validation testing including connection, registration, simulated use, and accuracy was conducted to ensure that the SPINEART® Navigation Instrument System instruments are acceptable for their intended use, to ensure functionality and compatibility with the Medtronic StealthStation®, and to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate instruments.

Connection testing evaluated the connection between the NavLock Tracker and the instruments. Registration testing was performed to ensure that the instruments can be registered to the StealthStation®. Simulated use testing was completed to verify successful implantation of Spineart screws by the SPINEART® Navigation Instrument System. Accuracy testing per ASTM F2554-10, "Standard Practice for Measurement of Positional Accuracy of Computer Assisted Surgical Systems," was completed for comparison to the predicate instruments. The results of this non-clinical testing show that the performance of the SPINEART® Navigation Instrument System is sufficient for its intended use and is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices.
