ROSA-041-2.5.8–C-EN Page 2
Introduction completed its shutdown procedure.
To restart the device, wait for at least 1 minute after shutting down.
Risks related to radiation Risks generated by laser beam exposure: The ROSA device uses laser technology for the automatic registration. This laser is of class 2 (power inferior to 1 mW, eye protection by the palpebral reflex). Do not orient the laser beam neither to the eyes nor to any light reflecting surfaces such as mirrors, in order to avoid any direct or indirect exposure to laser beam. Do not orient the laser towards the patient’s eyes, the user’s eyes or a third’s eyes.
The device requires specific precautions regarding the EMC. It must be set up and initiated according to the EMC information provided in §8.
Portable and mobile radio frequency communication devices might affect the operation of the device.
Usage of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified in §8, with the exception of the transducers and cables sold by Medtech (as spare parts of internal components) might cause increased emissions or decrease immunity of the device. The device must not be used adjacent to or stacked on top of any other equipment. If necessary, verify its correct operation in the corresponding configuration.
ROSA-041-2.5.8–C-EN Page 3
Introduction Risks related to transport and immobilization of the system and the patient Risks due to improper attachment of the patient’s head: check for sufficient stability of the device once the immobilization system is put in place. Residual risks due to improper attachment of the patient’s head: check that the skull is correctly secured in the head holder or frame and that the device is correctly attached to the head holder or frame before beginning the procedure. Risks due to improper attachment of the patient’s head: the device must be used with a head holder or a frame ensuring proper immobilization of the patient's head. This immobilization system must be approved and installed by a trained professional. Residual risks due to improper attachment of the patient’s head: check that the attachment of the articulated arm or support arm to the head holder or frame is correctly tightened. It is not recommended to use the articulated attachment arm for surgery where the patient can be awake. Verify the fixation of the device to the table before beginning the registration. The operating table should not be moved once the patient's head is secured to the ROSATM device. The actuators of the device stabilization feet should not be activated once the patient’s head is secured to the ROSA device. Before loading the data from a registration completed before a failure, ensure that the patient’s head has not been moved in the meantime Pinch hazard: do not place fingers or feet under the mobile part of the stabilization feet before immobilization of the system. Verify the position of the device and its environment when using the remote control for the wheeled trolley stabilization system.
ROSA-041-2.5.8–C-EN Page 4
Introduction During transportation the hydraulic actuators can be used to immobilize the device. In order to activate them, the device must be plugged in. The ROSA device must not be installed on inclined grounds, unless its stability is guaranteed. Transportation or displacement of the device can be handled by one person.
Mechanical hazards Risks of arm drop-off: Do not lean on the robot arm.
Pinch hazard: do not place fingers in accessible parts of the plastic covers of the robot arm. Pay attention to the mounting of the instrument adaptor in the instrument holder. The instrument adaptor must be properly snapped into the instrument holder (mistake-proofing). Applicative accuracy could be strongly impacted. In order to limit the impact of the forces exerted by the user on the headholder interface arm, it is recommended that you avoid placing the tightening nuts at the end of one segment. This would lead to a potential movement of the patient’s head in relation to the robot during surgery. The Mayfield head holder may exhibit mechanical play inducing a risk to the performance of the ROSA device. To reduce this play, a spring-loaded rod is mounted in the head-holder screw at the end of the head-holder articulated attachment arm or the support arm. The length of this rod must be controlled and/or set at the beginning of each procedure to ensure the reduction of the mechanical play of the head-holder. Verify the proper operation of the vigilance device before beginning a procedure: visually inspect the device and test interruption & resumption of a robot arm motion. For more information on using the Integra Mayfield head-holder, please refer to the operating manual provided by the manufacturer. For more information on using the Elekta Leksell stereotactic frame, please refer to the operating manual provided by the manufacturer.
ROSA-041-2.5.8–C-EN Page 5
Introduction Risk of contamination Verify the setup of the sterile drapes before beginning surgery to ensure the asepsis of the surgical field. The system must be used with sterile drapes. These drapes must be installed in accordance with the instructions detailed in §3.1.3.
Use of the software Residual risk due to user validation of a registration error whereas the result is not satisfactory: it is recommended to ensure that the accuracy provided by the software matches the accuracy required by the surgical procedure. Attention! If the user requests movements greater than the distance to the target point, the tip of the endoscope may exceed the target point planned, which may present a risk to the patient. A safety zone may constrain the movements of the ROSA device within a given area. Any movement outside this area is impossible. Therefore, it is essential to adjust the settings of this zone in order to secure the movements of the robot while allowing the surgery to be performed. In Iso mode, the isocentre can be positioned along the extent of the trajectory. It is important to note that for an identical movement X at the tip of the endoscope, the movement Y of the endoscope at the entry point will be greater if the isocentre is near the tip of the instrument. This can cause unwanted movements which may have serious consequences for the patient. Do not use the fast speed when the endoscope is inserted into the patient head. The slow speed is more adapted for manipulating the endoscope inside the brain. Hold the endoscope before beginning the cooperative mode. The planning software can be used to merge multi-modality exams onto one reference exam. Systematically verify any planned elements with respect to the reference exam at the end of the planning phase. The distance and volume measurements provided in millimeters and cubic centimeters (mm and cm3) by the planning software are given only as an indication. Do not make a diagnosis or planning according to
ROSA-041-2.5.8–C-EN Page 6
Introduction these values. Any storage support (USB flash drive, CD…) must be scanned by an antivirus program before being connected to the ROSA device. The user must connect only the provided elements to the device via Ethernet or USB and as described in this manual. Do not click successively on the software interface while the sandglass is displayed. Consequence: A Windows 7 error message will ask to close the program or to wait until the process is finished. Positioning aid works in the case of frameless imagery and when a 3D imagery is displayed. The final cancellation of a robot movement is considered as a failure of the procedure and causes the closing sequence of the software and automatic shutdown of the device. Attention, for an optimal adjustment of the 3D threshold, the 2D contrast must reveal the patient's skin in the 2D views. The user must ensure that: o The cross (in blue) adheres to the surface of the mesh o The initial points (in red) are all visible o The initial points (in red) correspond to the points collected with the optical sensor. If these conditions are not met, the final accuracy could be degraded. The user can either validate this step and control the quality of its registration during the navigation step or decide to start the registration again. Do not use noise isolating headphones but earplugs during preoperative imaging in order to avoid any skin deformation. If a too great error has been detected on this point during the verification procedure of the registration of a 3D exam, please visually check the correct matching on the axial, sagittal and coronal views and resume the registration if necessary (potential problem with a hole in the 3D mesh).
For safety reasons the automatic movement of the endoscope is limited to an angle of 1° regardless of the increment in mm requested by the user.
ROSA-041-2.5.8–C-EN Page 7
Introduction For endoscopy, the robot motion back to Home position is only possible after the endoscope has been completely withdrawn from patient head. Navigation is a tool for assisting with the identification of anatomical structures. The surgeon should always visually check the adequacy of the target displayed by the device with the intended anatomical target. It is recommended to empty the temporary directory in which the exams loaded from PACS are stored before loading a new exam.

General presentation ROSA is an image-guided device. An image acquisition of the patient’s head (3D MRI / CT or 2D X-Ray images) is performed prior to surgery and loaded into the ROSA application. In the preoperative phase, the surgeon carries out the surgical planning on the patient images using the ROSA software. The desired surgical parameters for positioning of the surgical instruments are set (for example: target point, entry point and instrument length). During surgery, ROSA provides accurate and rigid guidance of the required instrument according to the previously completed planning. Its operating principle is based on different stages: Application of fiducials on the patient’s head (depending on registration method) Acquisition of the preoperative images (3D MRI / CT or 2D X-Ray images) Preoperative segmentation and planning Installation of the ROSA device in the operating room and attachment of the mobile trolley to the head-holder or to the stereotactic frame Registration of the preoperative data with the ROSA device using either fiducials registration, automatic registration with the distance sensor or stereotactic frame registration Execution of surgery according to manipulation of surgical instruments)
