The description focuses on magnetic tracking technology and image registration, with no mention of AI or ML. The performance studies are based on accuracy and functional testing, not AI/ML model performance metrics.
No
The device is a surgical navigation system designed to support the accurate positioning of instruments during ENT and ENT skull base surgeries. It does not directly provide therapy or treatment to the patient.
No
The device is a navigation system used during surgery to guide instruments, not to diagnose a medical condition. It supports instrument navigation by referencing CT or MR based models.
No
The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components (Navigation Console, Emitter Pad, Instrument Hub, Patient Tracker, Registration Probe, Holder, Workstation, accessories) and describes a magnetic tracking technology involving hardware.
Based on the provided information, the TruDi™ Navigation System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- TruDi™ Function: The TruDi™ Navigation System is used during surgical procedures to guide instruments within the patient's body based on pre-operative imaging (CT or MR). It does not analyze biological specimens.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "during surgical procedures" and "to support navigation of instruments to targeted anatomy." This is an in-vivo application, not in-vitro.
- Device Description: The description details how the system tracks the position of instruments within the patient's body using magnetic technology and registered imaging. This is consistent with surgical navigation, not diagnostic testing of specimens.
Therefore, the TruDi™ Navigation System falls under the category of a surgical navigation system, which is a type of medical device used in vivo (within the living body) during surgery, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The TruDi™ Navigation System is intended for use during surgical procedures in ENT and ENT skull base surgery to support navigation of instruments to targeted anatomy, where reference to rigid anatomic structure can be identified relative to a CT or MR based model.

Device Description
The TruDi™ Navigation System V2 is intended to be used during surgical procedures in ENT and ENT skull base surgery to support navigation of instruments to the targeted anatomy, where reference to a rigid anatomical structure can be identified relative to a CT or MR based model.
The TruDi™ Navigation System V2 enables ENT physicians to access sphenoid, frontal, and maxillary sinuses, as well as the skull base, by using the systems magnetic tracking technology, which is the same technology used by both of the predicate devices.
The system incorporates a Navigation Console, Emitter Pad, Instrument Hub, Patient Tracker, Registration Probe, and Holder, Workstation and accessories. A magnetic field generated by the Emitter Ring (Field Ring) induces a current in the magnetic sensor embedded in the tip of the flexible navigated tool, which helps to accurately calculate the tool tip position. A CT image is imported and registered to the patient coordinates and a tool tip icon is displayed on top of the registered image, indicating the position of the tool in reference to the patient anatomy. A Patient Tracker is fixed to the patient forehead to compensate for the head movement during the navigation procedure.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Non-clinical Performance Data:
The TruDi™ Navigation System V2 was tested to ensure that it functions in accordance with the system design specifications related to substantial equivalence in terms of device safety and effectiveness.
The following nonclinical tests were performed:
-
- Proof of Design electrical tests, to verify all hardware modules perform within specifications.
-
- Location Accuracy tests, where the TruDi™ Navigation System electromagnetic locations were compared to the locations provided by a highly accurate robot system over the entire navigation volume to verify the system precision claim.
-
- Software functional tests, covering the complete system functionality, and including error handling, usability and time performance (latency).
-
- Safety, EMC, and mechanical tests were performed by a nationally recognized testing laboratory to verify compliance with safety and EMC standards for medical devices.
-
- Simulated use accuracy test, in which a complete CT image registration and instrument navigation workflow was performed to verify the overall accuracy of the system.
- Pre-clinical (cadaver) tests were designed to mimic surgical procedures using the TruDi™ Navigation System V2 in a simulated clinical environment to assess the execution of a complete sinuplasty procedure, workflow and to qualitatively estimate the systems clinical accuracy.
- System accuracy was tested confirming that it is within 2mm and instrument angular accuracy was tested confirming that it is within 6°.
- The Robot system (angular accuracy of 1°) used to validate system accuracy, verifies its real location based on electromagnetic field location. The proposed TruDi™ Navigation System V2 passed all tests in accordance with appropriate test criteria and standards, and the modified device did not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. Clinical data was not necessary to determine that the subject TruDiTM Clinical Performance Navigation System V2 performs as intended.

Predicate Comparison | |
Predicate Comparison | |
Table and Overview: | The substantial equivalence of the TruDi™ Navigation System V2 to the predicate devices is shown by similarity in intended use, indications for use, and performance. |
Like the predicate devices, the TruDi™ Navigation System V2 is an image-guided navigation system designed for use during ENT and ENT skull base surgical procedures. ENT physicians can track and display the real-time location of the tip of navigated instruments relative to pre-acquired CT/MR images. Additionally, like the predicate devices, the subject system utilizes electromagnetic tracking technology for navigation, uses anatomical reference points on the patient's anatomy for intraoperative registration to the image-based model of the anatomy, and uses CT/MR image sets as reference images for the image-based model. The predicate ENT Navigation systems support substantial equivalence and the differences between the subject device and the predicate devices do not raise any new questions with respect to safety and effectiveness. The table below provides a comparison of the technological characteristics between the subject device and the predicate devices. |
