Intended Use

Smith & Nephew Image Guided Surgical Instruments for Trauma Applications are intended to be used with the Universal Accessories to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures in either open or percutaneous procedures. Image Guided Surgical Instruments for Trauma Applications are indicated for use in surgical trauma procedures, in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate, and where a reference to a rigid anatomical structure such as a long bone (femur, tibia, humerus, radius, ulna, fibula), pelvic bone (including acetabular), calcaneus, and talus bone can be identified relative to a CT or MR based model or fluoroscopy images of the anatomy.

Device Story

Modified surgical instruments equipped with arrays containing infrared LEDs or passive spheres; arrays interface with external IGS Platform System for real-time tracking. System uses reference frames rigidly attached to patient anatomy to track position; software compensates for movement of anatomy or IGS platform to maintain navigation accuracy. Used in OR by surgeons for open or percutaneous trauma procedures; assists in precise localization of anatomical structures relative to CT, MR, or fluoroscopic images. Benefits include improved surgical precision and navigation during complex orthopedic and trauma interventions.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is based on technological characteristics and intended use similarities to predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Stereotactic surgical instruments modified to mount infrared LED arrays or passive spheres. Sensing principle: optical tracking via infrared emission/reflection. System is networked with an IGS Platform. Components include sterile/non-sterile single-use passive spheres. Class II device.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients undergoing surgical trauma procedures where stereotactic navigation is appropriate, specifically involving rigid anatomical structures including long bones (femur, tibia, humerus, radius, ulna, fibula), pelvic/acetabular bones, calcaneus, and talus. Used for procedures like fracture reduction, intramedullary nailing, plating, screw placement, and high tibia osteotomy.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A stereotaxic instrument is a device consisting of a rigid frame with a calibrated guide mechanism for precisely positioning probes or other devices within a patient's brain, spinal cord, or other part of the nervous system.

The image-guided arrays can use either infrared LEDs (light emitting diodes) or universal accessories (passive spheres) to transmit or reflect the infrared LEDs (light emitting diodes) that are emitted by an IGS Platform System. Along with commercially available software, this will allow the instruments to be recognized and tracked in real time in the surgical field. The universal accessories (passive spheres) will be available as either sterile or non-sterile and are for single use only. Each package will contain a multiple number of spheres. The infrared LEDs (light emitting diodes) or universal accessories (passive spheres) do not come in contact with the open wound during surgical procedures. The image-guided arrays that are affixed to the instruments work in conjunction with reference frames that are rigidly attached to the anatomy. Each reference frame is also fitted with either infrared LEDs (light emitting diodes) or universal accessories (passive spheres) to transmit or reflect the infrared LEDs (light emitting diodes) that are emitted by the IGS Platform System. The reference frames will allow the IGS Platform System to continuously track the position of the anatomy during navigation. If any movement of the IGS Platform System or anatomy is detected, the system can compensate for it, thereby maintaining accurate navigation. {1}------------------------------------------------ K021f15 # A.
