Intended Use
The Elekta Stereotactic Guide is indicated for the guidance and stereotactic instrument positioning in open cranial procedures and surgeries normally performed with traditional stereotactic apparatus.
Device Description
The Elekta Stereotactic Guide is an accessory to the Leksell Image Guidance Surgical (LIGS) System. The device consists of a base ring, targeting swivel with instrument channel, and locking ring. The guide and the LIGS are used for guidance and stereotactic instrument positioning during open cranial procedures and surgeries normally performed with traditional stereotactic apparatus. Once the target and entry point is determined during the presurgical planning phase, the craniotomy is made and the Elekta Stereotactic Guide is screwed into the patient's skull at the point of entry. The LIGS probe is placed into the guide and the orientation toward the target is determined using the intra-operative images. The guide is then locked into place and classic stereotactic instruments may then be placed into the channel of the guide for the surgical procedure.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on mechanical components and image guidance based on traditional stereotactic principles, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is described as a guide used for instrument positioning during surgical procedures, which is a supportive role rather than directly providing therapy.

No

The device is described as a guide for positioning instruments during surgical procedures, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states that the device consists of physical components: a base ring, targeting swivel with instrument channel, and locking ring. It is a hardware accessory used in conjunction with a surgical system.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnostic purposes.
  • Device Function: The Elekta Stereotactic Guide is a surgical accessory used for guiding and positioning instruments during open cranial procedures. It interacts directly with the patient's skull and is used in conjunction with imaging and other surgical tools.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: The description does not mention the device being used to analyze any biological specimens. Its function is purely mechanical guidance during surgery.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Elekta Stereotactic Guide falls under the category of a surgical instrument or accessory, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

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

The Elekta Stereotactic Guide has been evaluated for performance characteristics using a mechanical accuracy study and a clinical evaluation. Mechanical accuracy was performed on a phantom model with biopsy needle measurements and compared to stereotactic frames. A clinical evaluation of 31 procedures, using the Elekta Stereotactic Guide as an accessory to the Leksell Image Guidance Surgical System was documented. Both studies show that the Elekta Stereotactic Guide performs as intended.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION 16.4

The Elekta Stereotactic Guide is an accessory to the Leksell Image Guidance Surgical (LIGS) System. The device consists of a base ring, targeting swivel with instrument channel, and locking ring. The guide and the LIGS are used for guidance and stereotactic instrument positioning during open cranial procedures and surgeries normally performed with traditional stereotactic apparatus. Once the target and entry point is determined during the presurgical planning phase, the craniotomy is made and the Elekta Stereotactic Guide is screwed into the patient's skull at the point of entry. The LIGS probe is placed into the guide and the orientation toward the target is determined using the intra-operative images. The guide is then locked into place and classic stereotactic instruments may then be placed into the channel of the guide for the surgical procedure.

16.5 SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

The Elekta Stereotactic Guide, as an Accessory to the Leksell Image Guidance Surgical System, is substantially equivalent to Ohio Medical Instruments Mayfield-ACCISS Workstation, Ad-Tech's DAP II Biopsy Guide and Elekta Instruments' Leksell Stereotactic System.

The fundamental technical characteristics of the Elekta Stereotactic Guide are similar to those of the predicate devices. The design of guide and affixation to the patient is equivalent to the Ad-Tech predicate device. The materials used in the Elekta Stereotactic Guide is equivalent to those used in all three predicate devices. The image guidance capabilities are equivalent to that of the Ohio Medical Instruments predicate device.

The Indications for Use for the Elekta Stereotactic Guide is equivalent to the

predicate devices in terms of precise stereotactic instrument positioning and image guidance capabilities.

16.6 INTENDED USE

The Elekta Stereotactic Guide is indicated for the guidance and stereotactic instrument positioning in open cranial procedures and surgeries normally performed with traditional stereotactic apparatus.

16.7 TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The Elekta Stereotactic Guide is affixed to the patient's cranium. The device consists of a base ring, targeting swivel with instrument channel and locking ring. The base ring provides a rigid fixation for the locking ring and targeting swivel. The instrument channel can accommodate Elekta stereotactic instruments and an Leksell Image Guidance Surgical System probe. A navigational probe is used for determination of the orientation of the target using the intra-operative images of the LIGS system. The guide is locked into place when the correct orientation is obtained. A stop is attached to the stereotactic instrument prior to insertion into the channel. Comparison of the technological characteristics to those of the predicate devices has been provided in this submission.

16.8 PERFORMANCE DATA

The Elekta Stereotactic Guide has been evaluated for performance characteristics using a mechanical accuracy study and a clinical evaluation. Mechanical accuracy was performed on a phantom model with biopsy needle measurements and compared to stereotactic frames. A clinical evaluation of 31 procedures, using the Elekta Stereotactic Guide as an accessory to the Leksell Image

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.
