Intended Use
The Orion Medical Disposable Brain Biopsy Needle is an aspiration biopsy needle to remove and sample tissue within the brain in conjunction with a sterotactic head frame. The following statement describes the indications for use of Orion Medical's 14 gauge, and 18 gauge sterotactic disposable brain biopsy needle: - Sterotactic biopsy needle used to sample brain tissue or to extract brain tissue samples to . determine tissue abnormality or any deviation from healthy brain tissue. - . Tissue samples are extracted via the cannula using a syringe to aspirate. The cannula is then removed and the tissue sample is placed on a glass slide or sample dish, which is sent to anatomical pathology for smear analysis to determine tissue type. - . Needle to be used in conjunction with a sterotactic frame with a center-of-the-arc of 21cm. The needles are 21cm from the hub of the needle to the sharp front cutting edge.
Device Description
The Orion Medical Inc. three piece disposable Brain Biopsy Needle for sampling brain tissue is to be used in conjunction with a sterotactic head frame. The Orion Medical disposable Brain Biopsy Needle is inserted in the brain through a burr hole via a sterotactic head frame to a desired target that is obtained by a CT image. Tissue samples are obtained by aspirating through the Orion Medical disposable Brain Biopsy Needle is then removed from the brain and the sterotactic system and the sample is expelled from the brain biopsy needle onto a slide for analysis. The Orion Medical disposable Brain Biopsy Needle is similar in geometry, safety, function, and intended use as currently available brain biopsy needles.

No
The device description and intended use focus solely on the mechanical function of a biopsy needle and its use with a stereotactic frame. There is no mention of any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the presence of AI or ML.

No.
The device is used to sample and extract brain tissue for diagnostic purposes, not to treat a condition.

Yes
The device is used to extract tissue samples which are then sent for smear analysis to determine tissue type and abnormality, which is a diagnostic procedure.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical, disposable needle used for tissue sampling, which is a hardware component.

Based on the provided information, the Orion Medical Disposable Brain Biopsy Needle is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: An IVD device is defined as a medical device intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood, tissue, and urine, derived from the human body, solely or principally for the purpose of providing information concerning a physiological state, a state of health or disease, or a congenital abnormality.
  • Orion Medical Needle's Function: The Orion Medical Disposable Brain Biopsy Needle is a tool used to obtain a tissue sample from the brain. It is the instrument used in the surgical procedure to collect the specimen.
  • Where the IVD Process Occurs: The IVD process, in this case, happens after the tissue sample is collected. The tissue sample is placed on a slide and sent to anatomical pathology for analysis (smear analysis), which is where the in vitro examination of the specimen takes place to determine tissue type and abnormality.

The needle is a device used in the collection of the specimen, which is a necessary step for an IVD test, but the needle itself is not performing the in vitro diagnostic examination.
