The summary describes a navigation system that uses existing imaging modalities (CT, MR, fluoroscopy) and digitized landmarks with a stereotactic system (Medtronic StealthStation) to assist surgeons. There is no mention of AI or ML algorithms being used for image processing, analysis, or decision support. The performance studies focus on positional accuracy and compatibility with existing navigation systems, not on AI/ML performance metrics.
No.
This device is a surgical navigation system and instruments designed to assist surgeons in precisely locating anatomical structures during spinal surgery, rather than directly treating a medical condition or providing a therapeutic effect itself.
No
The device is a navigation system used during spinal surgery to assist surgeons in precisely locating anatomical structures and preparing for and inserting screws, not to diagnose a medical condition.
No
The device description explicitly states the Virage Navigation System is comprised of non-sterile, reusable instruments including drills, taps, and drivers, which are physical 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 perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Function: The Virage® Navigation System Instruments are surgical instruments (drills, taps, drivers) used during spinal surgery to assist the surgeon in placing screws. They are used in conjunction with a navigation system that uses imaging data (CT, MR, fluoroscopy) to guide the surgeon.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to assist in surgical procedures, not to perform tests on biological samples.
The device is a surgical navigation system component, which falls under the category of surgical instruments and systems, not in vitro diagnostics.

Device Description
The Virage Navigation System is comprised of non-sterile, reusable instruments including drills, taps, and drivers that can be operated manually and/or under a power surgical technique to prepare for and insert Virage OCT polyaxial screws. These instruments are intended to be used with the Medtronic StealthStation® System to assist surgeons in precisely locating anatomical structures. This surgical imaging technology provides surgeons visualization for complex and MIS procedures and confirms the accuracy of advanced surgical procedures. Use of these navigation systems allows the surgeon access to real-time, multi-plane 3D images) thereby providing confirmation of hardware placement.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
To support substantial equivalence, accuracy testing of the stereotactic instruments of the subject Virage Navigation System were assessed and tested appropriately in accordance with ASTM standards. The assessment concluded that the use of the proposed stereotactic instruments for the implantation of Virage screws is safe and effective for use. Performance testing included tests per ASTM F2554-18, Standard Practice for Measurement of Positional Accuracy of Computer Assisted Surqical Systems, and the worst-case instruments met the according to ASTM F2554-18. In all instances, the proposed instrument system functioned as intended and demonstrated substantial equivalence to the predicate device(s).
To further support substantial equivalence, a clinical validation lab of the navigated and powered instruments of the subject Virage Navigation System was conducted, and the results were compared against literature. The assessment concluded that the subject instruments use for powered pedicle screw insertion and fixation is safe and effective for use. This validation provided further evidence that the subject instruments are compatible with StealthStation, WalterLorenz Surgical Assist Arm and Zimmer Biomet Universal Power System.

The Virage Navigation System is substantially equivalent to the predicate system as a spinal fixation device regarding intended use, indications for use, and fundamental technology including design, materials, manufacturing methods, sterility, and operational principles. Accuracy testing and other supporting testing sufficiently demonstrate the substantial equivalence of the subject instruments to the Navigated Infinity Instruments, which has been cleared for stereotactic guidance using the StealthStation during orthopedic surgery procedures. Furthermore, validation testing also proved the subject instruments to be compatible and safe for use with StealthStation and the additional predicate systems. Based on this information, the subject device does not raise any new issues regarding the safety or efficacy when compared to its predicates.
Summary of Performance Data
To support substantial equivalence, accuracy testing of the stereotactic instruments of the subject Virage Navigation System were assessed and tested appropriately in accordance with ASTM standards. The assessment concluded that the use of the proposed stereotactic instruments for the implantation of Virage screws is safe and effective for use. Performance testing included tests per ASTM F2554-18, Standard Practice for Measurement of Positional Accuracy of Computer Assisted Surqical Systems, and the worst-case instruments met the according to ASTM F2554-18. In all instances, the proposed instrument system functioned as intended and demonstrated substantial equivalence to the predicate device(s).
To further support substantial equivalence, a clinical validation lab of the navigated and powered instruments of the subject Virage Navigation System was conducted, and the results were compared against literature. The assessment concluded that the subject instruments use for powered pedicle screw insertion and fixation is safe and effective for use. This validation provided further evidence that the subject instruments are compatible with StealthStation, WalterLorenz Surgical Assist Arm and Zimmer Biomet Universal Power System.
Conclusion
The subject Virage Navigation System has been shown through comparison, accuracy testing, additional verification testing and a clinical validation to be substantially equivalent to the identified predicate device(s). Based on this information the subject device does not raise any new issues regarding the safety or efficacy when compared to its predicates.
