Intended Use
The Radionics Optical Tracking System (OTS) Wireless System is indicated for use in cranial and spinal surgical procedures in which anatomical landmarks are not clearly visible or where a desired target is close to critical structures.
Device Description
This premarket notification describes a modification to the Radionics Optical Tracking System (OTS). The common name of this device is Intraoperative Guidance Device, and its classification name is Stereotaxic instrument. The modification involves the incorporation of battery-powered Wireless Standard Probe and DRF accessories. These accessories are substantially equivalent to their wired counterparts in the predicate Radionics OTS. When coupled with the OTS workstation, the above wireless accessories function in the same way as the predicate wired versions by allowing preoperative and operative planning of cranial and spinal surgical procedures using workstation images.

No
The summary describes a modification to an existing optical tracking system, focusing on the incorporation of wireless accessories that function equivalently to their wired counterparts. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts, and the description of the technology is purely based on optical tracking and workstation image processing.

No
The device is an intraoperative guidance system used for planning surgical procedures, not for treatment.

No
Explanation: The device is described as an "Intraoperative Guidance Device" used for planning surgical procedures and tracking instruments, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly mentions "battery-powered Wireless Standard Probe and DRF accessories" 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 tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Radionics Optical Tracking System (OTS) is an "Intraoperative Guidance Device" used in "cranial and spinal surgical procedures." It functions by allowing "preoperative and operative planning... using workstation images."
  • Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing biological samples from the patient. Its function is to provide guidance during surgery based on anatomical landmarks and images.

Therefore, the device's purpose and mechanism of action fall outside the scope of in vitro diagnostics. It is a surgical guidance system.

5.0 510(k) Summary

510(k) Summary

This summary of 510(k) safety and effectiveness information is submitted in accordance with the requirements of the Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990 and 21 C.F.R. § 807.92.

  1. The submitter of this premarket notification is:

Lisa Misterka Benati Senior Regulatory Engineer Radionics Software Applications, Inc. 22 Terry Avenue Burlington, MA 01803 Tel: (781) 272 - 1233 Fax: (781) 272 - 2428

This summary was prepared on July 1, 1998.

  1. This premarket notification describes a modification to the Radionics Optical Tracking System (OTS). The common name of this device is Intraoperative Guidance Device, and its classification name is Stereotaxic instrument.

  2. The modification involves the incorporation of battery-powered Wireless Standard Probe and DRF accessories . These accessories are substantially equivalent to their wired counterparts in the predicate Radionics OTS.

  3. When coupled with the OTS workstation, the above wireless accessories function in the same way as the predicate wired versions by allowing preoperative and operative planning of cranial and spinal surgical procedures using workstation images.

  4. Like their counterparts in the predicate Radionics OTS, the wireless Standard Probe and DRF are intended to facilitate the preoperative and operative planning of cranial and spinal surgical procedures. There are no operational differences between the wired and wireless accessories. All phases of preoperative and operative planning remain unchanged.

  5. Apart from the power source, the technological characteristics are the same as or similar to, those of the predicate wired device where LED-based systems and infrared signals are used to provide tracking information as an aid to cranial and spinal surgery.

Re: K982364 Trade Name: Radionics Optical Tracking System, (OTS) Wireless System Regulatory Class: II Product Code: HAW Dated: July 2, 1998 Received: July 6, 1998

Dear Ms. Benati:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
