#### DEVICE DESCRIPTION IV.
The ATEC IOM Accessory Instruments are surgical instruments that provide electrical stimulation to the body to locate and identify nerves in either open, minimally invasive, or percutaneous procedures. These surgical instruments are compatible with common FDA cleared neuromonitoring platforms as they are connected via a compatible clip or probe depending on the system. The neuromonitoring capability provides the surgeon with spinal nerve location, proximity, and integrity information. This information assists the surgeon during targeting, bone preparation, and placement of orthopedic implants such as intervertebral fusion devices (e.g., interbodies) and bone screws (e.g., pedicle screws).

| Indications for<br>Use | The ES2 Neuromonitoring<br>instruments (Awls, Taps,<br>Screwdriver and LITe Y-<br>NEEDLE 200, 300 and 400) can<br>be used by the surgeon to assist<br>in location of the spinal nerves<br>by providing proximity<br>information before, during or<br>after bone preparation and<br>placement of bone screws in<br>open and percutaneous<br>minimally invasive posterior<br>surgical approaches of the non-<br>cervical spine. | The Nerve Monitoring Cable in<br>conjunction with dilators,<br>pedicle probes, taps, awls or<br>screw drivers, are intended for<br>tissue dilation/dissection and<br>stimulation of peripheral nerves<br>including spinal nerve roots for<br>location and identification<br>during spinal surgery.<br>The dilators are also intended for<br>use in surgical procedures to<br>provide surgical access by<br>dilating the soft tissue to the<br>intended surgical site to allow<br>passage of current from a point<br>on the proximal end to an<br>uninsulated portion of the distal<br>tip. The purpose of this is to<br>allow controlled monitoring of<br>neural elements near and around<br>the point of access. The<br>dilators are offered sterile/single<br>use. | The EPAD 2 system is intended<br>for use in monitoring<br>neurological status by recording<br>somatosensory evoked potentials<br>(SSEP), electromyography<br>(EMG), or assessing the<br>neuromuscular junction (NMJ).<br>Neuromonitoring procedures<br>include intracranial,<br>extracranial, intratemporal,<br>extratemporal, neck dissections,<br>upper and lower extremities,<br>spinal degenerative treatments,<br>pedicle screw fixation,<br>intervertebral fusion cages,<br>rhizotomy, orthopedic surgery,<br>open or percutaneous, lumbar,<br>thoracic, and cervical<br>surgical procedures. | The ATEC IOM Accessory<br>Instruments are utilized in spine<br>surgical procedures to assist in<br>location of the nerves during or<br>after preparation and placement<br>of implants (intervertebral fusion<br>cages and pedicle screw fixation<br>devices) in open and<br>percutaneous minimally invasive<br>approaches. |
