Ziehm RFD 3D Interface
Intended use The Ziehm RFD 3D Interface is an accessory to the StealthStation™ system. The Ziehm RFD 3D Interface is intended to enable images of the patient’s anatomy that have been acquired from the Ziehm RFD 3D C-arm to be used with the Medtronic computer-assisted surgery system.
Indications for use The StealthStation™ System is intended as an aid for precisely locating anatomical structures in either open or percutaneous surgical procedures. The StealthStation™ System is indicated for any medical condition in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate, and where reference to a rigid anatomical structure such as the skull, a long bone, or vertebra can be identified relative to a CT- or MRbased model, fluoroscopy images, or digitized landmarks of the anatomy.
Contraindications None
Material composition Material contained in product that can cause an allergic reaction: nickel
Operating principle The Ziehm RFD 3D Interface enables optical tracking of the C-arm detector panel by the StealthStation™ camera. The camera uses the position of optical markers on the tracker assembly and the position of the patient reference frame to determine the relationship between the image volume and the patient anatomy. After acquiring an image, the image is transferred from Ziehm RFD 3D to the StealthStation™, and it is registered automatically in the StealthStation™ clinical software for use in navigation.
Compatible systems The Ziehm RFD 3D Interface is compatible with Ziehm Vision RFD 3D C-arms with Ziehm 3DApp software version 1.07.0 or later and with StealthStation™ S8 systems with Spine software version 1.1.0, 1.2.0, 2.0.0, or later. The Ziehm RFD 3D Interface is not compatible with StealthStation™ S7 or other legacy Medtronic systems. Note: Features described for the interface apply only to 3D scans and not to 2D scans.
System level manuals This device can be used with Medtronic image-guided surgical systems.

Preparing to use the interface Mounting a tracker housing to the C-arm Note: It is not necessary to mount both tracker assemblies unless you need both for the procedure. Handle attachments must be installed on and calibrated to the C-arm only by Medtronic field service personnel. After successful calibration, users may mount and unmount either or both tracker housings as needed. Re-calibration is only necessary if the Ziehm C-arm navigation handle or a handle attachment has been tampered with, when damage to any part of the interface is

suspected, or as part of periodic maintenance, including updates or service to the Carm by Ziehm Imaging GmbH. Inspect the tracker assemblies and handle attachments for damage before use. Inspect the tracker assemblies and handle attachments for cleanliness before use. Warning: Do not use the tracker assembly or handle attachment if they are not clean. Warning: Use a tracker assembly only with the handle attachment(s) and the Carm(s) with which it was calibrated. Warning: Do not use a tracker assembly or handle attachment if either is damaged. Warning: If mishandling has been observed or is suspected, the tracker assembly and handle attachment must be re-calibrated by Medtronic field service personnel. Warning: Never mount or unmount a tracker housing while the equipment is positioned over a patient. Warning: Follow the C-arm manufacturer’s instructions for use. To mount a tracker housing: 1. Rotate the C-arm to a comfortable working position and secure the C-arm in place before mounting either tracker housing. 2. Position the left or right tracker housing over its respective handle attachment. 3. Use the mounting tool to tighten the mounting screw through the tracker housing and into the handle attachment. Tighten clockwise until the tool clicks. 4. Repeat the steps above for the other tracker housing, if needed.
Inserting optical markers Keep extra optical markers on site. The markers are available in replacement packs of six markers (9734681). Over time, markers can become scratched or otherwise occluded, leading to optical failure. Inspect markers during insertion; replace any markers suspected of being faulty. Warning: Failure to follow the optical marker insertion instructions may result in navigational inaccuracy. Caution: Clean optical markers before each use. Do not use any sodium hypochlorite solution (bleach) on markers because it can damage the markers. 1. Before inserting an optical marker into a mounting socket, wipe out the socket with a lint-free cloth to ensure that no debris impedes the fit of the marker into the socket. 2. Align an optical marker over the empty mounting socket until you feel magnetic force pulling on the marker. 3. Release the marker and allow it to snap into the mounting socket. 4. Test that the marker is fully seated in its magnetic socket by rotating the marker within the socket. It should rotate freely.

5. Visually inspect the optical marker to make sure that it is fully seated within the mounting socket, and for cleanliness.
Draping the detector with the tracker assembly in place To drape the Ziehm RFD 3D C-arm detector, as well as any mounted tracker assembly, use the appropriate cover set from Ziehm Imaging GmbH. 1. Inspect the tracker assembly for damage and cleanliness. 2. Orient the drape so that the straight-edged, non-elastic portion aligns with the tracker assembly. Make sure that the entire tracker assembly is covered without putting undue stress on the tracker assembly. 3. Smooth the drape against the optical markers. Make sure that there are no wrinkles or labels obscuring the camera’s view of the markers. Note: Maintain visibility of the LEDs by making sure that they are clearly visible and unobstructed by labels and any wrinkles in the drape.
Final steps for use Warning: Confirm image registration accuracy prior to navigation, and frequently confirm accuracy during navigation. Abort the use of the Ziehm RFD 3D Interface if navigation is inaccurate and steps to restore accuracy are unsuccessful. Note: The tracker assembly and patient reference frame must be visible to the camera in the tracking view at the beginning of a 3D scan. (If the optical markers pass partly or completely out of the camera’s view during a scan, this will not affect image acquisition.) Also refer to the procedure-specific instructions for use, such as the StealthStation™ S8 Spine with O-arm™ and 3D Fluoro Imaging Pocket Guide (9735759), for additional instructions, symbols, warnings, and cautions. 1. Power on both the Ziehm RFD 3D C-arm and the Medtronic StealthStation™ system. 2. Connect the StealthStation™ system to the C-arm with an Ethernet cable. 3. Log-in to the StealthStation™ S8 Spine software, and then select the procedure. 4. In the Equipment task, if it isn’t already selected, add the Ziehm RFD 3D Carm. Verify that the serial number of the mounted tracker housing matches the serial number in the selected procedure. 5. Move through the steps in the application to the Images task, then: a. Position the C-arm and StealthStation™ camera for image acquisition. b. Ensure that the tracker assembly and patient reference frame are tracking in the software. c. Acquire 3D fluoroscopic images with the Ziehm RFD 3D C-arm according to the protocol in the Ziehm RFD 3D User Manual. d. Verify that the patient anatomy images are correct and in the proper orientation for the procedure. 5

6. Proceed with navigation.
Unmounting a tracker housing from the C-arm Carry out the following procedure before moving the C-arm between rooms or when preparing to store the interface components. Warning: Never mount or unmount a tracker housing while the equipment is positioned over a patient. Warning: Do not remove handle attachments from the Ziehm C-arm navigation handle; doing so will invalidate the calibration of the interface. Re-installation of the handle attachments and re-calibration by Medtronic field personnel will be required. Warning: Unmount, clean, and store tracker housings after use and before moving or storing the C-arm. Moving or storing the C-arm with the tracker housings mounted risks damage to the housings, and this can lead to navigation inaccuracy. 1. Rotate the C-arm to a comfortable position and secure it in place before unmounting the tracker housing from the handle attachment. 2. Use the mounting tool to loosen the mounting screw that holds the housing on the handle attachment. 3. Clean the interface components used in the procedure according to the “Cleaning the equipment” section on page 6. 4. Carefully place the tracker housing and other components in the storage case. 5. Repeat the steps above for the other tracker housing, if it was mounted.
Removing optical markers Warning: Never use a device to pry an optical marker out of its socket. The prying action can damage the marker or socket, which can result in navigation inaccuracy. Warning: Remove, clean, and store optical markers after use. Failing to store markers properly can lead to marker damage and thus to navigation inaccuracy. 1. Use your fingers to grip an optical marker in its magnetic mounting socket. 2. Pull firmly to remove the marker from its socket.
