Intended Use
RESPONSE™ Navigation Instruments are intended to be used during the preparation and placement of Response 4.5/5.0 and 5.5/6.0 Spine System pedicle screws during spinal surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures in open procedures. These instruments are designed for use with the Medtronic® StealthStation® S8 System (V1.2.0), 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 vertebra, can be identified relative to a CT or MR based model, fluoroscopy images, or digitized landmarks of the anatomy.
Device Description
The OrthoPediatrics RESPONSE™ Navigation Instruments are reusable surgical instruments for use with the Medtronic® StealthStation® Navigation System to assist surgeons in precisely locating anatomical structures in open procedures for preparation and placement of pedicle screw system implants. The RESPONSE™ Navigation Instruments include taps, probes, and drivers. The RESPONSE™ Navigation Instruments are to be used with the RESPONSE™ Spine System. All instruments are made of stainless steel per ASTM F899. Taps range in size from Ø3mm to Ø8mm. The RESPONSE™ Navigation Instruments are not compatible with implants from other manufacturers and are designed for use only with Medtronic® StealthStation® Navigation System hardware and software.
More Information

No
The summary describes reusable surgical instruments used with a navigation system, focusing on mechanical properties and positional accuracy testing. There is no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The navigation system itself (Medtronic StealthStation) is mentioned, but the focus of this 510(k) is on the instruments, not the underlying navigation technology which may or may not incorporate AI/ML.

No.
The device is a set of reusable surgical instruments (taps, probes, and drivers) used for navigation during pedicle screw placement in spinal surgery, not a therapeutic device designed to treat a disease or condition directly.

No

Explanation: The device is described as surgical instruments (taps, probes, drivers) used with a navigation system to assist surgeons in precisely locating anatomical structures and helping with the placement of pedicle screws. Its function is to guide surgical procedures, not to diagnose medical conditions or identify diseases.

No

The device description explicitly states that the device includes reusable surgical instruments made of stainless steel, which are hardware components.

Based on the provided information, 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, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The RESPONSE™ Navigation Instruments are surgical instruments used during surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures and preparing for implant placement. They are used directly on the patient's body, not on specimens taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states they are for use "during the preparation and placement of Response 4.5/5.0 and 5.5/6.0 Spine System pedicle screws during spinal surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures in open procedures." This is a surgical navigation and instrumentation function, not an in vitro diagnostic function.

Therefore, the RESPONSE™ Navigation Instruments fall under the category of surgical instruments and navigation systems, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

A detailed dimensional analysis and comparison has been conducted for subject and predicate device to support the substantial equivalence.

Additionally, the RESPONSE™ Navigation Instruments have been tested per ASTM F2554-18, "Standard Practice for Measurement of Positional Accuracy of Computer Assisted Surgical Systems".

  • . Single point measurement accuracy per ASTM F2554-18
  • Instrument axis rotation measurement accuracy per ASTM F2554-18
  • . Instrument angular position perpendicular to the system camera measurement accuracy per ASTM F2554-18
  • . Instrument angular position parallel to the system camera measurement accuracy per ASTM F2554-18
  • . Distance between points measurement accuracy per ASTM F2554-18

The results of this non-clinical testing together with the dimensional analysis and comparison show that performance of the RESPONSE™ Navigation Instruments is sufficient for its intended use and is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices.
