Intended Use

The Instant-View Pregnancy Combo Test is a qualitative immunoassay for the detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine or serum for the early detection of pregnancy. This test is for laboratory and professional use only.

Device Story

Instant-View Pregnancy Combo Test is a single-use, qualitative, chromatographic immunoassay cassette. It detects human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in human urine or serum samples. The device utilizes a lateral flow sandwich immunoassay format (anti-hCG antibody/hCG/anti-hCG antibody). The test is performed by healthcare professionals in clinical laboratories or physician offices. Results are visually interpreted: a control line (C) indicates valid test performance, and a test line (T) indicates a positive result for hCG. The device provides rapid diagnostic information to clinicians to confirm pregnancy, facilitating timely clinical decision-making and patient management.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical evaluation included correlation studies between the subject device and the predicate, as well as testing in clinical laboratories and three physician offices. The study involved users with diverse educational backgrounds and experience. Results showed 100% agreement with expected outcomes, confirming the device performs as well as the legally marketed predicate.

Technological Characteristics

Lateral flow chromatographic immunoassay; sandwich complex format (anti-hCG antibody/hCG/anti-hCG antibody); visual readout; single-use cassette; sensitivity threshold ≥ 25 mIU/ml (calibrated against WHO 3rd IS 75/537).

Indications for Use

Indicated for the qualitative detection of hCG in human urine and serum to aid in the early diagnosis of pregnancy in professional and laboratory settings.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test system is a device intended for the early detection of pregnancy is intended to measure HCG, a placental hormone, in plasma or urine. A human chorionic goadotropin (HCG) test system is a device intended for any uses other than early detection of pregnancy (such as an aid in the diagnosis, prognosis, and management of treatment of persons with certain tumors or carcinomas) is intended to measure HCG, a placental hormone, in plasma or urine.
