Intended Use

The IOPS (Intra-Operative Positioning System) is intended for the evaluation of vascular anatomy as captured via 3D modeling from previously acquired scan data. It is intended for real-time tip positioning and navigation using sensor-equipped compatible catheters and guidewires used in endovascular interventions in the descending aorta. The system is indicated for use as an adjunct to fluoroscopy. The IOPS does not make a diagnosis.

Technology

The device includes a Fiducial Tracking Pad equipped with a single tracking sensor allowing the system to track gross patient motion to maintain patient registration during procedures. The guidewire handle is a sterile, single-use, non-sensorized device that connects to the sensorized guidewire for real-time detection and 3D visualization of the guidewire tip position on the vascular map. It uses sensor-equipped compatible catheters and guidewires and 3D modeling from prior CT scans.

Performance

Non-clinical testing including dimensional analysis, device functionality and essential performance, tensile and radiopacity tests, accuracy testing per ASTM F2554, IEC 60601 and applied part testing, biocompatibility, sterilization, EO/ECH residuals, packaging integrity, and design validation demonstrated the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate and performs as intended.
