Intended Use
The XTool™ Device is indicated for spinal discectomy procedures for the cutting and removal of soft and hard tissue in open and minimally invasive spinal surgeries.
Device Story
XTool™ is a manual, handheld orthopedic surgical instrument for discectomy in open and minimally invasive spine procedures. Device consists of an angled cutting head with serrated edges, a distal guard, and a hollow shaft connecting to a proximal handle. Handle features a port for connection to standard hospital wall or pump suction. Two diameter options (5.2 mm or 6.3 mm) accommodate varying disc heights; two tip angles (15° or 40°) facilitate ipsilateral and contralateral access. During surgery, the surgeon uses the device to cut tissue, which is drawn into the tip opening via suction and aspirated through the stainless steel tube. Device aids in soft tissue cutting and cartilage removal, potentially improving surgical efficiency in spinal procedures.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Evidence consists of bench testing, biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993, sterilization validation per ISO 11137, packaging validation per ISO 11607-1, and simulated use cadaver testing to demonstrate intended functionality.
Technological Characteristics
Manual handheld surgical instrument; stainless steel construction; suction-assisted aspiration; 22 cm working length; 5.2 mm or 6.3 mm diameter; 15° or 40° tip angles. Compliant with ISO 10993 (biocompatibility), ISO 11137 (sterilization), and ISO 11607-1 (packaging).
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients undergoing open or minimally invasive spinal surgery requiring spinal discectomy, specifically for the cutting and removal of soft and hard tissue.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

### b. Date Summary Prepared
September 1, 2012
### Description of Device C.
The XTool™ is an orthopedic manual hand held surgical instrument for use in performing discectomy in open and minimally invasive spine procedures. It is composed of an angled cutting head with serrated cutting edges and a distal guard, and a hollow shaft that connects the cutting head to the handle proximal. The handle has a port for connecting to standard hospital wall or pump suction. Two different diameter devices are specified to accommodate the range of disc heights for which a discectomy can be performed, with the smaller diameter for lower height discs, and the larger diameter for larger height disc. Two different tip angles are also specified to facilitate ipsilateral and contralateral disc removal. The finished assembly working length is 22 cm, Tip Angle is 15° or 40° and the cutter head diameter is either 5.2 mm or 6.3 mm.

## Indications for Use
The XTool™ Device is indicated for spinal discectomy, procedures for the cutting and removal of soft and hard tissue in open and minimally invasive spinal surgeries.
### Comparison to Predicate Device e.
The Ouroboros Medical XTool™ MIS DISCECTOMY Device is substantially equivalent in intended use and technology to the currently marketed predicate devices the HydroCision Arthrojet/SpineJet handpiece (K041233) and the Blackstone Medical Inc. Laparoscopic Disc Removal System (K972768). Both the Application device and the predicate devices provide a means to cut soft tissue, remove cartilage, and aspirate tissue through a stainless steel tube in spinal surgeries. The Arthrojet/SpineJet has a cutting blade () at the tip and a tip orifice that draw tissue in to be aspirated through the collection tube. The XTool™ Device also has a cutting blade at the tip with a tip opening for drawing in tissue to be aspirated through a stainless steel tube. The Blackstone Laparoscopic Disc Removal System also has cutting edges around an opening at the tip that draws tissue in using suction to be aspirated through the stainless steel tube.
### f. Summary of Supporting Data
Biocompatibility testing demonstrates that the device is in compliance with ISO 10993 for biocompatibility of the product.
Sterilization Validation has demonstrated that the device is in compliance with ISO 11137 standards for product sterility assurance.
Packaging Validation has demonstrated that the device is in compliance with ISO 11607-1.
Bench testing has demonstrated that the device is in compliance with the pertinent standards, the expectations of the medical community and the product labeling.
Simulated use cadaver testing demonstrated that the device can be used as intended in humans.
