#### Device Description:
The Camino 110-4 Intracranial Pressure Monitoring catheters are sterile transducer-tipped pressure or pressure/temperature monitoring catheters that are used by neurosurgeons to
DEC 2 0 2010
{1}------------------------------------------------
KID2 4815 rapidly determine and continuously monitor intracranial pressure or pressure/temperature. The Camino 110-4B is used for Intraparenchymal Pressure Monitoring and the Camino 110-4BT is used to simultaneously measure intracranial pressure and temperature in the parenchyma. The Camino 110-4G is used for Post Craniotomy Subdural Pressure Monitoring, and the Camino 110-4L is intended for use with the Licox Brain Oxygen Monitoring System to measure intracranial pressure in the parenchyma.
> The primary issues affecting the safety of passive implants in the MR environment concern radio frequency (RF) heating, magnetically induced displacement force and torque, and image artifacts. Verification testing was performed in each of these areas to determine the effects of the MR environment on the Camino 110-4BT, 110-4G, and 110-4L catheters. The devices were tested under best and worst case heating conditions in a 1.5 Tesla (T) MRI environment, in accordance with ASTM Standard 2182-02a "Standard Test Method for Measurement of Radio Frequency Induced Heating Near Passive Implants During Magnetic Resonance Imaging". Testing was also performed to determine the magnetically induced displacement force and magnetically induced torque exerted on these devices in accordance with ASTM F2052-06 "Standard Test Method for Measurement of Magnetically Induced Displacement Force on Medical Devices in the Magnetic Resonance Environment" and ASTM F2213-06 "Standard Test Method for Measurement of Magnetically Induced Torque on Medical Devices in the Magnetic Resonance Environment". In addition, artifact images were provided for these devices in accordance with ASTM F2119 "Standard Test Method for Evaluation of MR Image Artifacts from Passive Implants".
> Based on a risk/benefit analysis for the Camino 110-4BT, 110-4G, and 110-4L, it was determined that the potential risk of injury to the patient due to the high heating potential under certain conditions in an MR environment does not outweigh the clinical benefit derived from MRI images. Therefore, Integra has labeled these devices as MR Unsafe.
> The proposed Camino devices are identical to their respective predicate devices, except for the addition of MR Safety Information to the current labeling. The addition of MRI Safety information to the labeling is intended to improve the safe use of the Camino 110-4B, Camino 110-4BT, Camino 110-4G, and Camino 110-4L catheters by clarifying to healthcare providers in a clear and concise manner that the devices are MR Unsafe.
## Indications for Use:
## Camino 110-4B OLM Intracranial Pressure Monitoring Kit
The use of the OLM Intracranial Pressure Monitoring Kit by a qualified neurosurgeon is indicated when direct measurement of intracranial pressure in the parenchyma or the subarachnoid space, is clinically important.
## Camino 110-4BT Intracranial Pressure-Temperature Monitoring Kit

The Camino Intracranial Pressure Monitoring Catheter with Licox IMC Bolt Fitting, Model 110-4L is intended to be used only through a Licox Brain Oxygen Monitoring System Bolt.
## Substantial Equivalence:
The proposed Camino 110-4B, Camino 110-4BT, Camino 110-4G, and Camino 110-4L catheters have identical Indications For Use, and are intended for the same target population as the currently cleared and marketed Camino 110-4BT, Camino 110-4BT, Camino 110-4G, and Camino 110-4L catheters. The proposed catheters and accessories are identical to their respective predicates in function, manufacturing processes, sterilization processes, and packaging configurations. The proposed devices incorporate the same basic designs, utilize the same operating principles, have identical performance specifications, and consist of identical implanted materials as their respective predicates.
The only difference between the proposed Camino 110-4B, Camino 110-4BT, Camino 110-4G, and Camino 110-4L catheters is the addition of MRI Safety Information to the labeling. The proposed labeling is similar to the current labeling, with the only difference being the addition MR Unsafe information to the labels and Directions for Use. The addition of MRI Safety Information to the proposed labeling does not negatively impact the safety and efficacy of the proposed devices, and in fact, is being added to the labeling in order to improve the safe and effective use of the devices in the MR environment by clarifying to clinicians, MR Technicians, and Radiologists that the devices are MR Unsafe.
The addition of MRI safety information to the labeling does not alter the indications for use or the fundamental scientific technology of the devices. The Camino 110-4B is substantially equivalent to the current Camino 110-4B. The Camino 110-4BT catheter is substantially equivalent to the current Camino 110-4BT. The Camino 110-4G catheter is substantially equivalent to the current Camino 110-4G catheter. The Camino 110-4L catheter is substantially equivalent to the current Camino 110-4L catheter.

Two short videos show you everything — or skip straight to the written tutorial if you'd rather read. You can reopen this any time from the Tutorial button in the top bar.
Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
