Intended Use
For Total Hip Replacement (THR) procedures The Brainlab hip system is intended to be an intraoperative image-guided localization system to enable minimally invasive surgery. It links a freehand probe, tracked by a passive marker sensor system, to virtual computer image space either on a patient's preoperative image data being processed by Brainlab IGS platforms, or on an individual 3D-model of the patient's bone, which is generated through acquiring multiple landmarks on the bone surface. The system is indicated for any medical condition in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be considered to be safe and effective, and where a reference to a rigid anatomical structure, such as the skull, a long bone, or vertebra, can be identified relative to a CT, X-Ray, or MR-based model of the anatomy. The system aids the surgeon to accurately navigate a hip endoprosthesis to the preoperatively or intraoperatively planned position. Example orthopedic surgical procedures include but are not limited to: Total Joint Replacement Minimally invasive orthopedic surgery Tumor resection and bone/joint reconstruction For Surface Replacement (SR) procedures The Brainlab hip system is intended as an intraoperative image-guided localization system. It links a freehand probe, tracked by a passive marker sensor system to virtual computer image space on Brainlab IGS platforms. The image data is provided either in the form of preoperatively-acquired patient images or in the form of an individual 3D model of the patient's bone, which is generated by acquiring multiple landmarks on the bone surface. The system is indicated for any medical condition in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be considered to be appropriate and where a reference to a rigid anatomical structure, such as the skull, a long bone, or vertebra, can be identified relative to a CT, X-ray, or MR-based model of the anatomy. The system aids the surgeon in accurately navigating a hip endoprothesis to the preoperatively or intraoperatively planned position. Example orthopedic surgical procedures include but are not limited to: Partial/hemi-hip resurfacing.
Device Story
Brainlab Hip is an intraoperative image-guided localization system for orthopedic hip replacement. It uses a passive marker sensor system to track a freehand probe and surgical instruments (e.g., cup reamer, cup inserter, stem broach) in real-time. Inputs include preoperative patient images (CT, X-ray, MR) or a 3D bone model generated by palpating landmarks. The system reconstructs anatomical axes and planes of the femur and pelvis to guide implant positioning. Surgeons use the system in the OR to navigate tools to planned positions and intraoperatively measure leg length and offset. It provides visual feedback on a display, aiding surgeons in accurate implant alignment. Benefits include improved surgical precision and potential for minimally invasive approaches.
Clinical Evidence
Prospective clinical validation study of 50 total hip replacement surgeries in patients >55 years. Evaluated accuracy of lateral and supine pelvis registration against a gold standard (post-operative CT). Primary endpoints: cup inclination and anteversion deviation. Results showed high accuracy: lateral registration (inclination -1.1° ± 3.1°; anteversion 0.9° ± 4.3°) and supine registration (inclination 0.5° ± 2.2°; anteversion -0.9° ± 3.9°). No cases exceeded the ±10° safe zone defined by Lewinnek et al. Study confirmed system performance for cup orientation measurement.
Technological Characteristics
Stereotactic image-guided localization system. Uses passive marker tracking, freehand probes, and surgical instruments. Integrates with Brainlab IGS platforms. Software-based 3D reconstruction of anatomical axes/planes. Supports preoperative image data or landmark-based 3D bone modeling. Connectivity via IGS platform. No specific material standards or energy sources listed beyond standard surgical instrumentation.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring stereotactic orthopedic surgery, including total hip replacement, surface replacement, minimally invasive orthopedic surgery, and tumor resection/reconstruction, where rigid anatomical structures (skull, long bone, vertebra) can be referenced to CT, X-ray, or MR-based models.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

#### Device Description:
The Brainlab hip system is intended to enable operational planning and navigation in orthopedic hip replacement surgery. It links a surgical instrument, tracked by passive markers to virtual computer image space on an individual three-dimensional model of the patient's bone, which is generated through acquiring multiple landmarks either directly on the bone surface or by palpating bony landmarks through soft tissue and defining them directly on skin. The Brainlab hip system uses the registered landmarks to navigate the necessary surgical tools, e.g., cup reamer, cup inserter, stem broach handles and k-wires, to the planned position and orientation. Additionally, it enables to intra-operative measurement of implant position, including measurement of the changes in leg length and offset.
The Brainlab hip system provides a three-dimensional reconstruction of the relevant anatomical axes and planes of the femur and pelvis to aid the alignment of the implants and to determine leg length and offset parameters. Based on the selected procedure, the Brainlab hip system loads implant and instrument data that has been provided by the implant manufacturer. It is possible to individually choose the prostheses for each surgery, which are shown in the software in relation to the determined anatomical structures. If no implant data is available, to the user can enter

#### Clinical Performance Data ·
A prospective clinical validation study was performed to analyze the accuracy of lateral and supine pelvis registration in Brainlab Hip. The study included 50 total hip replacement surgeries on patients over 55 years of age. Patients with previous ipsilateral hip surgery affecting the pelvic or acetabular anatomy, pelvic fracture, ipsilateral acetabular fracture and women with childbearing potential were excluded. Two patients had to be excluded because of a loss of the navigation data (one case) and loosening of the pelvic reference array (one case). No intra- or post-operative complications occurred in the remaining cases except one calcar fissure which was unrelated to the navigation and caused no post-operative problems.
The surgical procedure was performed using the previous version of Brainlab Hip, the Brainlab Hip 5.1 navigation system, including an epicutaneous acquisition of the anterior pelvis plane (APP) as the basic reference for intraoperative navigation. This reflects an established registration procedure. The final position of the cup was verified based on this registration. Additionally, all landmarks required for Brainlab Hip registration procedures were acquired. Based on this information, the verified cup orientation was virtually adapted to the registration methods of Brainlab Hip. Post-operative CT scans were performed to determine a gold standard reqistration by defining the APP points directly on bone. Cup orientation was measured for this reference and then compared to the virtually adapted cup orientation. This enabled a direct comparison of the lateral and supine registration methods in Brainlab Hip with the gold standard.
The descriptive statistics (mean ± standard deviation) of the deviations to the gold standard, as well as the percentage of cases within a ±10° safe zone, as defined by Lewinnek et al in Lewinnek GE, Lewis JL, Tarr R, Compere CL, Zimmerman JR. Dislocations after total hip-replacement arthroplasties. J Bone Joint Surg Am. 1978 Mar;60(2):217-20, were calculated according to the radiographic definition specified by Murray DW in The definition and measurement of acetabular orientation. J Bone Joint Surg Br. 1993 Mar: 75(2): 228-32. The percentages were calculated based on the actual numbers of cases, as well as a statistical calculation where error distribution was modeled as a normal distribution.
- . Deviation between gold standard and Brainlab Hip lateral registration:
- Inclination: -1.1° ± 3.1°, statistically 0.25% of the cases were ー
{4}------------------------------------------------
outside the ±10° safe zone
- Anteversion: 0.9° ± 4.3°, statistically 2.32% of the cases were outside the ±10° safe zone
- Deviation between gold standard and Brainlab Hip supine registration:
- Inclination: 0.5° ± 2.2°, statistically 0.0% of the cases were outside the ±10° safe zone
- Anteversion: -0.9° ± 3.9°, statistically 1.2% of the cases were outside the ±10° safe zone
The deviation was not outside the safe zone in any of the actual cases. This was true for both lateral and supine registration methods. These results describe the basic accuracy of cup orientation measurement in Brainļab Hip.
#### Conclusion
All non-clinical and clinical tests have been successfully performed. Thus, it has been demonstrated that the device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the predicate device.
