The device enables pre-operative planning of the surgical procedure and subsequent spatial positioning and orientation of the surgical tool during intra-operative procedures. ## Device Story SpineAssist is a miniature image-guided surgery (IGS) system for spinal stabilization. Inputs: preoperative fluoroscopic and CT images. Operation: software processes images via proprietary algorithms to generate a surgical plan; system exports coordinates to a Miniature Surgical Guidance (MSG) unit; MSG attaches directly to the patient's bone and positions an articulating arm and tool guide. Output: physical guidance for handheld surgical tools along pre-planned trajectories. Used in clinical settings by surgeons. Benefit: provides precise spatial positioning and orientation of surgical tools during spinal procedures, enhancing accuracy and accessibility. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data provided. Evidence consists of bench testing for electrical safety (EN 60601-1), electromagnetic compatibility (EN 60601-1-2), software validation (IEC 60601-1-4), and device accuracy/repeatability performance testing. ## Technological Characteristics Miniature surgical guidance system comprising a planning system, workstation, and MSG unit. Attaches to bone. Software-controlled articulating arm for tool guidance. Complies with EN 60601-1 (electrical safety), EN 60601-1-2 (EMC), and IEC 60601-1-4 (software). ## Regulatory Identification A stereotaxic instrument is a device consisting of a rigid frame with a calibrated guide mechanism for precisely positioning probes or other devices within a patient's brain, spinal cord, or other part of the nervous system. ## Predicate Devices - Neuromate ([K963256](/device/K963256.md), [K991081](/device/K991081.md)) - Vector Vision ([K010968](/device/K010968.md), [K021306](/device/K021306.md)) - Navitrack ([K981315](/device/K981315.md), [K031156](/device/K031156.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

The SpineAssist is designed to assist surgeons in precisely guiding handheld surgical tools in line with a computerized, image-based preoperative plan along given trajectories. The system's software processes fluoroscopic and CT images via proprietary algorithms and automatically exports the desired coordinates to the MSG, which positions its articulating arm and tool guide. Through the bone-attaching procedure, the SpineAssist device attaches to the bone on which $$ \begin{array}{c} \text{3} \\ \text{3} \\ \text{1} \end{array} $$ {1}------------------------------------------------ the procedure is being performed and assists surgeons in precisely guiding handheld surgical tools in line with the computerized, image-based, pre-operative plan. The main components of the SpineAssist device include: - A. Planning System; - B. Workstation; and - C. Miniature Surgical Guidance System MSG #### Intended Use: The SpineAssist is indicated for precise positioning of surgical instruments during spinal stabilization surgery. The device enables pre-operative planning of the surgical procedure and subsequent spatial positioning and orientation of the surgical tool during intra-operative procedures. #### Performance Data: Testing was carried out to assure compliance with recognized electrical safety standards. Mazor Surgical Technologies has certified compliance with the EN 60601-1 standard for electrical safety and compliance with the EN 60601-1-2 standard for electromagnetic compatibility. Tests were also carried out to satisfy the requirements of the IEC 60601-1-4 standard and the FDA Guidance for the Content of PreMarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices. Additional device performance tests were performed to validate the accuracy and repeatability of the device. #### Predicate Device: The SpineAssist device is substantially equivalent to a combination of the following devices.
