Intended Use
The OrthoPlan System is indicated for the planning of orthopaedic surgeries on a personal computer. The software is intended to read in digitized x-rays and orthopaedic implants, provide a constructed image of this data, and to use this information in conjunction with the OrthoPlan software, to overlay the constructed images to aid surgeons in their planning of orthopaedic surgeries.
Device Story
OrthoPlan is a software system for preoperative orthopaedic surgical planning. It accepts digitized x-ray images and digital representations of orthopaedic implants as input. The software constructs a composite image by overlaying implant templates onto the patient's x-ray data. Used by surgeons in a clinical setting on a personal computer, the system assists in visualizing implant placement and sizing. The output provides a visual aid for surgical planning, allowing surgeons to assess fit and positioning before the procedure, potentially improving surgical accuracy and patient outcomes.
Technological Characteristics
Software-based system for personal computers; functions by overlaying digitized implant templates onto digitized x-ray images.
Indications for Use
Indicated for orthopaedic surgeons planning surgical procedures using digitized x-rays and orthopaedic implant templates on a personal computer.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A template for clinical use is a device that consists of a pattern or guide intended for medical purposes, such as selecting or positioning orthopedic implants or guiding the marking of tissue before cutting.

Dear Dr. Stevens:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
