Device Story

CORE 2 Console is a reusable, 120V AC-powered surgical console used outside the sterile field. It powers and controls surgical handpieces, irrigation pumps, and footswitches. Input data includes RFID-based identification/configuration from connected handpieces, cutting attachments, and footswitches. The console processes these inputs via internal controllers to manage motor speed, irrigation, and handpiece activation. The updated version integrates into the RISE (Reimagining Integrated Surgical Experience) ecosystem via Ethernet, allowing remote control of power, irrigation, and handpiece settings from a Connected OR Hub or SDC4K GUI, and activation via remote foot pedal. The device provides surgeons with centralized control to simplify workflows and reduce OR clutter. Clinical benefit includes precise bone/tissue manipulation and integration with stereotactic guidance systems.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only, including software/wireless technology testing, EMC/electrical safety testing, simulated use testing, and human factors testing.

Technological Characteristics

Bench-top console with coated sheet metal housing; 13.0 x 17.4 x 5.4" dimensions; 17.3 lbs. Powered by 120V AC. Features include LCD touchscreen, peristaltic irrigation pump, and three motor ports. Connectivity via Ethernet for RISE ecosystem integration. Internal modules include RFID, motor controller, and CPU. Software-controlled via GUI. Non-sterile, reusable.

Indications for Use

Indicated for cutting, drilling, reaming, decorticating, shaping, and smoothing of bone, bone cement, and teeth in orthopedic, dental, ENT, neuro, spine, and endoscopic procedures; also for placement/cutting of fixation devices (screws, metal, wires, pins). Indicated as accessory to Stryker Spine Guidance Software for stereotactic spine surgery in adult and pediatric (adolescent) patients.

Dear Leandra Burke:

We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate 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 (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device"

# 807.92(a)(3) - Legally marketed device to which equivalence is claimed

CORE 2 Console (K241171)

# 807.92(a)(4) - Device Description

The CORE 2 Console is a non-sterile, 120V AC-powered, reusable device that is intended for use outside of the sterile environment during surgery. The console supplies 40V DC power to a range of motors for use in a variety of surgical procedures as described in its labeling. It also provides a means for irrigation through an integrated irrigation pump. The console has three motor ports, two footswitch ports, and one irrigation cassette port. CORE 2 receives identification and configuration information from connected devices including Stryker handpieces, footswitches, cutting attachments with RFID, and irrigation cassettes. The console allows further device configuration through its graphical user interface (GUI).

The primary modules that comprise CORE 2 are its power supply, central processing unit, motor controller, irrigation pump controller, RFID module, liquid crystal display (LCD) screen and speaker, touchscreen, USB interface, and an Ethernet interface. The CORE 2 is responsible for the integration of these modules and control of the console's software receives identification and configuration from connected devices. This information is monitored and processed based on current system configurations, and can be used to activate handpiece motors, change motor speed, and activate or deactivate irrigation, among other functions.

The device modifications in scope of this premarket notification consist of updates to the CORE 2 software to allow for its use within a RISE (Reimagining Integrated Surgical Experience) ecosystem. RISE is an optional software functionality that allows for Ethernet-based communication between

compatible Stryker devices (i.e., Connected OR Hub, SDC4K Information Management System, and Sonopet iQ consoles) and utilizes the DCM (Device Communication Module) protocol.

RISE provides for an integrated OR (Operating Room) solution to healthcare facilities to simplify workflows and reduce OR clutter. In a RISE configuration, adjustment of CORE 2 power, irrigation, and handpiece settings can be made directly on a Connected OR Hub / SDC4K GUI, thereby allowing the user to input commands via a single console. RISE functionality also allows for the activation of the subject device output via a remotely connected foot pedal. The functional output tasks that the software performs are the same as that of the predicate device.
