1. OVERVIEW
1.1. Site~Rite® 8 Ultrasound System Device Description
The Site~Rite
®
8 Ultrasound System is a portable device that features real-time 2D ultrasound imaging, customized
vascular access applications, procedure documentation, vessel measurement tools, and electronic connectivity (if
enabled).
1.2. Needle Guidance (if enabled)
The Site~Rite
®
8 Ultrasound System has two optional needle guidance technologies available depending on the selected
probe.
Both available needle guidance technologies are designed to track and display the location and trajectory of a needle
under ultrasound guidance. The technologies consist of software installed on an ultrasound system and sensors
incorporated into the ultrasound probes. The sensors detect a passive magnetic field emitted from the needle. The
software interprets the data from the sensors and creates a virtual image of the needle on the ultrasound display,
providing clinicians with a visual representation of the needle during the insertion process.
1.2.1. Cue™ Needle Tracking System Description
Cue™ Needle Tracking System requires the use of a Cue™ 20mm Linear Probe, the Cue™ Needle Tracking
System Activator and a Cue™ compatible needle. The Cue™ 20mm Linear Probe contains sensors for tracking
Cue™ compatible needles (following magnetization by the Cue™ Needle Tracking System Activator). The tracked
needle’s current position, trajectory, and Intersection Window are displayed over the ultrasound image.
1.2.2. Pinpoint™ GT Needle Technology Description
Pinpoint™ GT Needle Technology requires the use of a 20mm Pinpoint™ GT Linear Probe and a Pinpoint™ GT
Safety Introducer Needle. The 20mm Pinpoint™ GT Linear Probe contains sensors for tracking Pinpoint™ GT
Safety Introducer Needles, which contain a permanent magnet within the safety canister of the needle. The
tracked needle’s current position, trajectory, and point of intersection with the ultrasound plane are displayed over
the ultrasound image.
