Intended Use

The Navio system is intended to assist the surgeon in providing software-defined spatial boundaries for orientation and reference information to anatomical structures during orthopedic procedures.

Device Story

Computer-assisted orthopedic surgical navigation and burring system; uses passive infrared tracking camera to establish bone surface models and plan implant locations based on intraoperative landmarks. System controls surgical bur (Anspach eMax2 Plus) motion via software-defined spatial boundaries; operates in Exposure Control mode (bur retracts into guard) or Speed Control mode (bur speed regulated/stops at target surface). Used in orthopedic surgical suites by trained surgeons. Provides orientation/reference information; limits bone removal to shape condyles, tibial plateau, or patellofemoral joint. For TKA, system guides placement of femoral and tibial cutting guides; surgeon completes bone preparation using standard surgical saws. Benefits include precise, software-defined bone preparation for implant placement.

Clinical Evidence

No human clinical testing was conducted. Evidence consists of non-clinical bench testing, including software database reviews, drawing inspections, and clinical simulation (usability testing) using sawbones and cadavers. Testing confirmed that surgeons, physician assistants, and technical support personnel could successfully use the system to place total knee implants per manufacturer specifications.

Technological Characteristics

Computer-assisted navigation system using passive infrared tracking. Components include a standard off-the-shelf surgical drill motor and bur (Anspach eMax2 Plus). Operates via image-free/non-CT intraoperative data collection to create bone models. Software-defined spatial boundaries control bur motion (retraction or speed control). System is networked for data logging; logs are anonymized and exportable to CD. Sterilization requirements follow standard surgical instrumentation protocols.

Indications for Use

Indicated for surgical knee procedures, including unicondylar knee replacement (UKR), patellofemoral arthroplasty (PFA), and total knee arthroplasty (TKA), where stereotactic surgery is appropriate and reference to rigid anatomical bony structures can be determined. Indicated for use with cemented implants only.

## Device Description

The Navio system is a computer-assisted orthopedic surgical navigation and surgical burring system. The system uses established technologies of navigation, via a passive infrared tracking camera, to aid the surgeon in both establishing a bone surface model for the target surgery and in planning the surgical implant location, based on intraoperatively-defined bone landmarks and known geometry of the surgical implant. The Navio system then aids the surgeon in executing the surgical plan by using a standard off-the-shelf surgical drill motor and bur (Anspach eMax2 Plus System, cleared via K080802), which has been adapted using a tracking system.

The surgical bur is inserted into a handpiece, which allows the bur to move within the handpiece. The Navio system software controls the position of the surgical bur relative to the end of a guard attached to the handpiece and prohibits the bur from cutting bone as it approaches the planned target surface. As the planned surface is reached, the tip of the bur is fully retracted within the guard. This is referred to as Exposure Control mode.

An alternate mode of operation is the Speed Control mode. In this mode, the speed of the bur is controlled and the bur stops as the planned target surface is reached. In this mode of operation, the bur does not retract into the guard. This mode of operation is useful in shaping surfaces of the condyle as well as placing post holes and fixation features.

Below "BLUE BELT" is the word "TECHNOLOGIES" in a smaller, gray, sans-serif font. The overall design is clean and modern.

The Navio computer system maintains a log of the patient data and procedure data. Each entry is date and time stamped. Data log entries include date and time stamp for each data line entry, patient and procedure ID, implant ID, step in process, and error messages received by the user during the procedure. This data can be archived to a CD upon demand at the end of the procedure and is anonymized.

The following diagram shows the primary workflow steps in each application: UKR, PFA, and TKA. The three procedures are mutually independent and cannot be planned or completed in parallel.

Note: The workflow for UKR and PFA procedures has not changed from the predicate device, cleared via K152574.

## Non-Clinical Testing (Bench)

Design verification tests were performed on the Blue Belt Technologies, Inc. Navio system to support total knee arthroplasty, as a result of the risk analysis and product requirements. Testing included software database reviews, bench testing, labeling inspection, drawing inspections, and a clinical simulation (usability testing). Simulateduse testing included simulated knee (sawbones) and cadaver laboratory testing. Users included surgeons, physician's assistants, and technical support personnel who were able to successfully use the Navio system to place total knee implant systems per Blue Belt Technologies' and implant manufacturer's specifications after being adequately trained.

## Clinical Testing

No human clinical testing was conducted to determine safety and effectiveness of the Navio system.

## Discussion of Similarities and Differences

The predicate, Navio, uses established technologies to prepare bone for attachment of implant components. The predicate uses intraoperative data collection (image-free or non-CT data generation) to create a model of the patient's femur and/or tibia and allow the surgeon to prepare a surgical plan. The predicate uses pre-defined boundaries generated during the planning process to control the motion of the surgical bur and limit the amount of bone removed in order to shape the condyles, tibial plateau, or patellofemoral joint in preparation for placement of the surgical implant.

This methodology is equivalent to what is used by the Navio, the subject of this 510(k), with the exception of the Navio's expanded indication to prepare the knee for a total

knee arthroplasty. During a total knee arthroplasty procedure, the Navio controls the cutting action of the bur during the placement of the cutting guides. The surgeon then uses the Navio-placed cutting guides to finish the preparation of the bone surface using standard surgical saws and the manual instrumentation technique established by each implant's manufacturer to prepare the remainder of the bone surface to receive the total knee implant components.

The Navio surgical system uses pre-defined boundaries generated during the planning process to control the motion of the surgical bur and limit the amount of bone removed in order to shape the condyles, tibial plateau, and/or the patellofemoral joint in preparation for placement of the surgical implant, or in the case of a total knee arthroplasty, the bone surface is prepared to receive the femoral and tibial cutting guides. This submission supports the expanded indication for use of the Navio system to place total knee implants using the same techniques used in the predicate Navio system.

The UKR, PFA, and TKA applications are mutually independent and cannot be planned or completed in parallel.

### Conclusions

The Navio system described in this submission has the same intended use and the same technological characteristics as the Navio system, cleared per K121936, K140596, K143668, and K152574, with the additional indication of total knee arthroplasty. Nonclinical testing was completed to verify that the use of the Navio system to assist with placement of total knee implants does not raise any new issues of safety or effectiveness. The information presented in this 510(k) premarket notification demonstrates that the Navio, when used to place total knee implants, is as safe and effective as the currently cleared Navio system.
