Intended Use
BrainLAB ACL is intended to be used as an intraoperative image-guided navigation system to enable minimally invasive surgery. It links a freehand probe, tracked by a passive marker sensor system, to a virtual computer image space on the model of a bone, overlaid with individually acquired patient landmarks. The system is indicated for any surgical anterior cruciate ligament procedure in which the use of stereotactic surgery for the planning and navigation of interosseous canals may be appropriate, and where a reference to a rigid anatomical structure can be established.
Device Story
BrainLAB ACL is an intraoperative image-guided navigation system for ACL reconstruction. It uses a freehand probe tracked by a passive marker sensor system to map patient anatomy. The system registers intra-operatively acquired landmarks to a virtual computer model of the bone. Surgeons use this navigation to plan and drill transplant canals to restore knee joint stability. The system is used in an operating room setting by surgeons to facilitate minimally invasive procedures. By providing real-time visualization of surgical instruments relative to patient anatomy, the device assists in accurate tunnel placement, potentially improving surgical outcomes and knee stability.
Clinical Evidence
No specific clinical trial data or performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity) are provided in the summary. Substantial equivalence is supported by design verification, system testing (Xtool), software validation, and evaluation under real-world conditions.
Technological Characteristics
Image-guided surgery system utilizing passive marker tracking. Components include a freehand probe and a sensor system for spatial tracking. Software-based navigation platform for intraoperative planning and drilling. Connectivity involves integration with surgical navigation hardware. Sterilization requirements for surgical instruments apply.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery where stereotactic planning and navigation of interosseous canals is appropriate and a rigid anatomical reference can be established.
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.

#### Device Description:
ACL is an image quided surgery system for the replacement of torn ligaments in the knee joint. It is based on intra-operatively acquired landmarks that are used for planning and navigation. It supports the surgeon in the planning and drilling of transplants canals in the position to regain the stability of the knee joint.
#### Substantial equivalence:
BrainLAB ACL has been verified and validated according to BrainLAB's procedures for product design and development.
To conclude the substantial equivalence, the following verification aspects were performed:
- . Design review meetings
- Evaluation at special sites t
- Tracking of software versions .
- Subsystem & System Verification using Xtool .
- Non-Xtool tests .
- License group tests .
- Installer tests .
- Startup tests .
To conclude the substantial equivalence, the following validation aspects were performed:
- Testing and evaluation under real world conditions .
- Desian reviews .
- Software validation .
- Literature research .
- Literature evaluation ◆
- Comparison with a previously marketed medical device .
- Indications for use/Changed indications for use .
- . Non-clinical validation
- Preclinical and clinical validation .
- Side effects .
The information provided by BrainLAB in this 510 (k) application was found to be substantially equivalent with the predicate device VectorVision® ACL (K042512) and BrainLAB Knee (K073615)

Dear Mr. Wimmer:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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.
