Intended Use
E-Ortho shoulder is intended to be used as an information tool to assist in the preoperative surgical planning and visualization of a primary total shoulder replacement.
Device Story
Web-based surgical planning software; inputs CT scan data; transforms 2D images into 3D bone models (scapula and humerus). Surgeons use software to visualize patient anatomy, select implants, and determine optimal positioning/screw placement. Features include glenoid correction, keel perforation detection, and prosthesis translation. Used in clinical settings by orthopedic surgeons. Output assists in preoperative preparation, potentially reducing intraoperative complications and improving implant selection accuracy. Operates on Mac OS 10.13+ or Windows 8+.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Verification conducted via five test campaigns across two environments per IEC 62304. Validation performed via usability testing with five surgeons. Accuracy testing compared device outputs against gold-standard software (Mimics V 22, 3matic V 14, SolidWork 2016) using simulated virtual cases (varying patient positioning, reaming depths, and angles). All tests passed.
Technological Characteristics
Web-based software application; runs on Mac OS 10.13+ or Windows 8+; processes CT scan data; 3D visualization and modeling; rule-based analysis for implant positioning and perforation detection; compliant with IEC 62304 software lifecycle standards.
Indications for Use
Indicated for orthopedic surgeons performing preoperative surgical planning and visualization for primary total shoulder replacement.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A medical image management and processing system is a device that provides one or more capabilities relating to the review and digital processing of medical images for the purposes of interpretation by a trained practitioner of disease detection, diagnosis, or patient management. The software components may provide advanced or complex image processing functions for image manipulation, enhancement, or quantification that are intended for use in the interpretation and analysis of medical images. Advanced image manipulation functions may include image segmentation, multimodality image registration, or 3D visualization. Complex quantitative functions may include semi-automated measurements or time-series measurements.

### Device Description:
e-Ortho Shoulder software is a web-based surgical planning software application. e-Ortho Shoulder provides a pre-surgical planning tool for surgeons that helps them understand their patient's anatomy prior to surgery. Compared to using two-dimensional (2D) images to plan a shoulder arthroplasty (current method used by FH-Orthopedic surgeons), e-Ortho supplies information to surgeons to help prepare an intraoperative plan. E-Ortho allows surgeons to work in three-dimensional (3D) visualization, implant visualization and positioning within the specific patient's bone model (scapula and humerus), using reliable landmarks. This allows surgeons to preoperatively select the needed implant and determine its desired position.
The subject submission seeks to add humeral planning capabilities to the previously cleared FH E-Ortho Shoulder Software. Additional changes to the software have been made to improve functionality within the previously cleared intended use.
#### Indications for Use:
E-Ortho shoulder is intended to be used as an information tool to assist in the preoperative surgical planning and visualization of a primary total shoulder replacement.

## Substantial Equivalence:
The subject e-Ortho shoulder software is substantially equivalent to the following predicate: FH Industrie – e-Ortho Shoulder – K201928
The subject e-Ortho Shoulder software is similar to the predicate with respect to intended use, indications for use, technological characteristics, and principles of operation. Thus, it can be concluded that the subject does not raise new questions about safety and effectiveness.

### Performance Testing:
In order to ensure the performance of the e-Ortho throughout the project's development, a verification and validation process has been established and conducted per IEC 62304. The verification process was implemented through five test campaigns and was carried out by five different evaluators in two different environments to verify the functional components of the subject device. Three bugs were identified as remaining problems after the debugging campaign; however, all are minor and not expected to impact the planning itself.. The validation process was implemented through a usability test campaign, with critical features requiring validation by five surgeons. The result of the validation tests coincides with the expected results for each test case and no test failed. Similar to the predicate device, additional accuracy testing was carried out to guarantee the performance of e-Ortho as follows: the
{6}------------------------------------------------
sequence of events which could lead to dangerous situations and potential harms were identified then simulated in different virtual cases including right and left sided scenarios in head-first supine positioning of patient as well as feet-first supine patient positioning, varying reaming depths, and implant visualization from varying angles. These simulations were carried out using the subject device, compared to the "gold standard" Materialise innovation Suite (Mimics V 22 and 3matic V 14) and SolidWork 2016 for implant values (version and inclination). All tests passed. Thus, the accuracy of e-Ortho is adequate to provide safe use of the product.
*Note: e-Ortho shoulder is intended to be used only with the following previously cleared FH Orthopedic implants: Arrow Anatomical shoulder prostheses (K093599, K162068), Arrow Reverse shoulder prostheses (K112193, K142778, K171789).
## Conclusion
The e-Ortho Shoulder software v1.1 is shown to be substantially equivalent to its previously cleared version, e-Ortho Shoulder Software (K201928). The subject software has similar intended uses, indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as its predicate device. The minor differences do not alter the intended use of the device and do not affect its safety and effectiveness when used as labeled. In addition, performance data demonstrate that e-Ortho raises no new questions of safety or effectiveness. Thus, the updated e-Ortho Shoulder software is substantially equivalent to the previously cleared version.
