Intended Use
"POINT" Kinguide Agile Hybrid Navigation System is intended as an aid for precisely locating anatomical structures in either open or percutaneous neurosurgical and orthopedic procedures. The device is indicated for pedicle screw entry point alignment and angular orientation when using a posterior approach into T12 to S1 vertebrae, and where reference to the rigid anatomical structure can be identified by intraoperative 3D reconstruction images.
Device Description
"POINT" Kinguide Agile Hybrid Navigation System (Kinguide Agile) is an imageguided system (IGS) that consists of an infrared navigation camera, a system workstation (computer), navigation software, and surgical instruments. This medical device system can also be referred to as an orthopedic stereotaxic instrument (OLO) according to the U.S. FDA Device Classification. Kinguide Agile uses optical positioning technologies to track the position of surgical instruments in relation to patient anatomy by means of Dynamic Reference Frames (DRFs) and identify the patient anatomical structure on intraoperative images (obtained using the 3D C-arm or CT*). The user loads the software to plan the surgical procedure and then registers the patient anatomy during surgery to allow the software to track the patient's anatomy and the navigable surgical instruments in real-time. The software application primarily provides the stereotactic navigation function to match the coordinates of the patient anatomical structure and establishes a surgical navigation map. The user can perform the operation according to the surgical navigation map through the use of navigable surgical instruments. During surgery, the positions of navigable surgical instruments are continuously updated on the imaging system via optical tracking. *CT image DICOM file reconstructed from the 3D C-arm or the same function equipment.
More Information

No
The document describes a standard image-guided navigation system using optical tracking and image registration. There is no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.

No.
The device is a navigation system intended as an aid for precisely locating anatomical structures, which assists in procedures but does not directly provide therapy.

No

The device is described as an image-guided system used for surgical navigation, specifically for precisely locating anatomical structures and aiding in pedicle screw placement. Its function is to provide real-time tracking of surgical instruments in relation to patient anatomy based on intraoperative images, which helps guide a procedure rather than diagnose a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of an infrared navigation camera, a system workstation (computer), navigation software, and surgical instruments, indicating it includes hardware components beyond just software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the system is an aid for precisely locating anatomical structures during surgical procedures (neurosurgical and orthopedic). It is used to guide surgical instruments in relation to the patient's anatomy.
  • Device Description: The description details a system that uses optical positioning and imaging to track instruments and patient anatomy in real-time during surgery. It's a navigation system for surgical guidance.
  • Lack of In Vitro Testing: There is no mention of the device being used to test samples (blood, tissue, etc.) outside of the body to diagnose a condition or provide information about a patient's health status.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device operates directly on the patient during a surgical procedure to aid in navigation, which is not the function of an IVD.
