Intended Use
The Q Guidance System, when used with the Spine Guidance Software, is intended as a planning and intraoperative guidance system to enable open or percutaneous computer assisted surgery in adult and pediatric (adolescent) patients. The system is indicated for any surgical procedure on the spine in which the use of computer assisted planning and surgery may be appropriate. The system can be used for intraoperative guidance where a reference to a rigid anatomical structure such as the skull, pelvis or spine can be identified. The system assists in the positioning of instruments for procedures on the pelvis and spine, including: - Screw and Needle Placement in the spine or pelvis - Bone resection in the spine. The Stryker Consolidated Operating Room Equipment (CORE) 2 Console is intended for use in the cutting, drilling, reaming, decorticating, shaping, and smoothing of bone, bone cement and teeth in a variety of surgical procedures, including but not limited to dental, ENT (Ear, Nose, Throat), neuro, spine, and endoscopic applications. The console is also usable in the placement or cutting of screws, metal, wires, pins, and other fixation devices. The CORE 2 Console is also indicated as an accessory to the Stryker Spine Guidance Software for stereotactic surgical procedures on the spine in adult and pediatric (adolescent) patients. The CORE Q Footswitch is an accessory to the CORE 2 Console. When the pedal is actuated, it provides a signal to the console for variable speed control of the handpiece connected to the console. The footswitch is intended for use in surgical spine procedures. When used with the Stryker Spine Guidance Software, the footswitch when commanded by the console provides haptic feedback based upon user defined spatial boundaries. The Pi Drive 2 and Pi Drive 2 Plus Motors are intended for use with the Stryker® Consolidated Operating Room Equipment (CORE™) System. The motors, when used with a compatible Elite Q Attachment and a stereotactic instrument tracker, are also indicated as an accessory to the Stryker Spine Guidance Software. The Elite Q Attachments and Cutting Accessories are intended to be used with the Stryker Consolidated Operating Room Equipment (CORE™) 2 Console and the Pi Drive 2 Motor or the Pi Drive 2 Plus Motor. The Elite Q Attachments, when used with a compatible motor and a stereotactic instrument tracker, are also indicated as an accessory to the Stryker Spine Guidance Software. Specific applications include but are not limited to laminotomy / laminectomy, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) spine, and orthopedic spine.
Device Story
Image-guided stereotaxic system for spinal/pelvic surgery; utilizes preoperative/intraoperative imaging (CT, MR, PET, 2D DICOM). System comprises computer platform, camera, touchscreen monitors, CORE 2 console, Pi Drive 2 motors, and navigated instruments. Employs active/passive wireless optical tracking to register patient anatomy and track instrument position relative to planned trajectories. Surgeon uses touchscreen/mouse for planning (screws, trajectories, segmentations, Smart Zones) and registration. During surgery, system provides real-time navigation; CORE 2 console drives powered instruments; footswitch enables variable speed control and haptic feedback based on user-defined spatial boundaries. High-speed drill tip proximity detection alerts surgeon to boundaries. Output includes 3D visualization and audible/haptic feedback. Used in OR by surgeons to improve precision in instrument positioning and bone resection, potentially reducing surgical error and improving patient outcomes.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical testing was required. Evidence consists of bench-only verification and validation testing, including 3D positional and trajectory accuracy using anatomically representative phantoms, software validation per IEC 62304, biocompatibility per ISO 10993-1, and electrical safety/EMC testing per IEC 60601 series.
Technological Characteristics
System uses infrared optical active/passive tracking. Components: CORE 2 console (CPU, motor/irrigation controllers, RFID, LCD), Pi Drive 2 motors, Elite Q attachments, and cutting accessories. Connectivity: Ethernet, USB. Software: Spine Guidance 5.1. Sterilization: Steam (reusable devices) and Gamma (Elite Cutting Accessories) to SAL 10⁻⁶. Accuracy: 2 mm positional, 2° trajectory. Standards: IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, ISO 10993-1, ISO 11137-2.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult and pediatric (adolescent) patients undergoing open or percutaneous computer-assisted spinal or pelvic surgery. Used for screw/needle placement and bone resection where rigid anatomical reference (skull, pelvis, spine) is identifiable.

| 807.92(b)(1) – Nonclinical Testing to Support Submission |
| --- |
| The function and performance of the subject devices have been evaluated through non-clinical design verification and validation testing. Additional testing was performed on the subject devices to ensure they met their design requirements. The results of the evaluation tests demonstrate that the subject devices successfully meet the requirements of their intended use. |
| Accuracy
System demonstrated performance in 3D positional accuracy with a mean error ≤ 2.0 mm and in trajectory angle accuracy with a mean error ≤ 2.0°. This performance was determined using anatomically representative phantoms and utilizing a subset of system components and features that represent the worst-case combinations of all potential system components. |
| Software

## Sterilization
The reusable subject devices have undergone steam sterilization validation to ensure they can meet a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10⁻⁶.
The Elite Cutting Accessories have undergone gamma sterilization validation per ISO 11137-2: 2013/(R) 2019 to ensure they can meet a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10⁻⁶.
## 807.92(b)(2) – Clinical Testing
No clinical testing was required to support this submission.
## 807.92(b)(3) – Conclusions Drawn from Testing Performed
Results of performance testing were determined successful for all protocols and demonstrate that the functionality, integrity, and safety and effectiveness of the subject devices are sufficient for their intended use. Performance test results for the subject devices demonstrate substantial equivalent to the predicate devices.
## Conclusion/ Substantial Equivalence (SE) Rationale:
The subject devices, in comparison with the legally marketed predicates, have the same or equivalent intended use, indications for use, operating principles, energy source, and functional outputs. Performance testing and risk analysis demonstrate that the devices are as safe and effective as their predicate devices and support a determination of substantial equivalence.
