Intended Use
The NVM5® System is a medical device that is intended for intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring during spinal surgery. The device provides information directly to the surgeon, to help assess a patient's neurophysiologic status. NVM5 provides this information by electrically stimulating nerves via electrodes located on surgical accessories and monitoring electromyography (EMG), transcranial motor evoked potential (TcMEP) or somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP) responses of nerves. XLIF (Detection) The XLIF (Detection) function allows the surgeon to locate and evaluate spinal nerves, and is used as a nerve avoidance tool. Basic & Dynamic Screw Test The Screw Test functions allow the surgeon to locate and evaluate spinal nerves by providing proximity information during or after bone preparation and placement of bone screws. Free Run EMG The Free Run EMG function identifies spontaneous EMG activity of spinal nerves by continually displaying a live stream waveform of any mechanically induced myotome contractions. Twitch Test (Train of Four) The Twitch Test Function allows the surgeon to assess moderate degrees of neuromuscular block in effect by evaluating muscle contraction following a train of four stimulation pulses. TcMEP Transcranial stimulation techniques for motor evoked potentials are used to assess for acute dysfunction in axonal conduction of the corticospinal tract. The TcMEP function provides an adjunctive method to allow the surgeon to monitor spinal cord motor pathway integrity during procedures with a risk of surgically induced motor injury. SSEP The SSEP function allows the surgeon to assess sensory spinal cord function in surgical procedures during which the spinal cord is at risk. Remote Reader The Remote Reader function provides real time remote access to the NVM5 System for a monitoring physician outside of the operating room. Guidance - The Guidance function is intended as an aid for use in either open or percutaneous pedicle cannulation procedures in the lumbar spine of adult patients, and when used in conjunction with radiographic imaging and EMG, allows the surgeon to assess the angulation of system accessories relative to patient spinal anatomy for the creation of a cannulation trajectory for bone screw placement.
Device Story
NVM5 System is an intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring device for spinal surgery. Inputs include electrical signals from nerves via surgical accessory electrodes (EMG, TcMEP, SSEP) and angular data from accelerometers (Guidance). The system processes these signals to provide real-time feedback to the surgeon via a touch-screen interface. Modalities include nerve avoidance (XLIF), screw proximity testing, spontaneous EMG monitoring, neuromuscular block assessment (Twitch Test), and pedicle cannulation guidance. A remote monitoring feature allows secondary physicians to view data outside the OR. The device assists surgeons in assessing nerve proximity, spinal cord integrity, and screw trajectory, potentially reducing the risk of surgically induced nerve or motor injury. Used in clinical OR settings by surgeons and monitoring personnel.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Electrical safety and compatibility testing per IEC 60601-1, 60601-2-40, and 60601-1-2. Guidance function accuracy validated against infrared tracking systems. Accessories underwent impedance, current density, biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1), and sterilization (ISO 11135-1) testing. Published literature cited regarding accuracy of percutaneous lumbar pedicle screw placement.
Technological Characteristics
Hardware includes Patient Module and Control Unit with embedded computer/touch screen. Uses disposable conductive probes, needle/surface electrodes. Sensing: EMG, TcMEP, SSEP, and accelerometer-based angular sensing. Connectivity: Remote monitoring capability. Sterilization: Validated for accessories (SAL 10^-6). Electrical: Constant current/voltage stimulation, rectangular monophasic pulses.
Indications for Use
Indicated for intraoperative neurophysiologic monitoring during spinal surgery in adult patients. Used for nerve avoidance, assessment of neuromuscular block, monitoring of spinal cord motor/sensory pathway integrity, and as an aid for pedicle cannulation trajectory assessment.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

## G. Performance Data
Nonclinical testing was performed to demonstrate that the subject NVM5 Sustem is substantially equivalent to other predicate devices and to verify that the NVM5 Sustem meets design specifications and performance characteristics, based upon the intended use. The NVM5® System was subjected to electrical safety and compatibility testing and was certified to the following standards, including all applicable normative reference standards:
- . IEC 60601-1 (1988), A1 (1991), A2 (1995): Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1: General Requirements for Safety
- IEC 60601-2-40 (1988): Medical Electrical Equipment Part 2-40:Particular . requirements for the safety of electromyographs and evoked response equipment
- IEC 60601-1-2 (2001), A1 (2004): Medical Electrical Equipment Part 1-2: General Requirements for Safety Collateral Standard Electromagnetic Compatibility
- . Guidance performance testing - Accuracy testing for the creation of a cannulation trajectory for bone screw placement that demonstrated equivalent degrees of variance and that the accelerometer-based NVM5 Guidance function and the infrared tracking from the StealthStation are equivalent in their performance (supplemented with the following published clinical literature: Accuracy of percutaneous lumbar pedicle screw placement using the oblique or "owl's-eve" view and novel guidance technology (J Neurosurg Spine. 2010), and Improving accuracy and reducing radiation exposure in minimally invasive lumbar interbody fusion (J Neurosurg Spine, 2010))
Accessories to the NVM50 System also underwent the following performance testing. where applicable:
- Impedance and continuity testing .
- Current density testing .
- Electrical performance and durability .
- Fluid interference .
- Biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993-1 .
- Sterilization validation per ISO 11135-1 .
- Penetration and friction testing of needle electrodes .
The results of these studies showed that the subject NVM5® System meets or exceeds the performance of the predicate device, and the device was therefore found to be substantially equivalent.
## H. Conclusions
Based on the indications for use, technological characteristics, performance testing, and comparison to predicate devices, the subject NVM5® System has been shown to be substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices, and safe and effective for its intended use.
