Intended Use

Aid for precisely locating anatomical structures and for the spatial positioning and orientation of an instrument holder or guide tube used by surgeons in open or percutaneous spinal procedures, indicated for placement of non-cervical spinal pedicle screws, using intraoperative CT scans.

Technology

An integrated navigation-based robotic platform consisting of two robotic arms and one arm holding a navigation camera, all integrated into a single cart. Uses optical cameras for tracking, force-controlled movements via foot pedal and bracelet, and DICOM format intraoperative CT images for planning and navigation. Supports qualified surgical instruments compliant with specified criteria, with adjustable end effector to accommodate various instrument diameters.

Performance

Comprehensive verification and validation testing including system and instrument verification, navigation accuracy per ASTM F2554-22, quantitative accuracy validation in clinically relevant model, IEC software verification, cybersecurity assessments, electromagnetic and electrical safety testing, biocompatibility, cleaning and sterilization validation, and human factors/usability testing.
