Intended Use
The Randox Laboratories Ltd. Theophylline Test Kit is an in vitro diagnostic reagent for the quantitative determination of theophylline in serum. The method is a latex-enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay based on the principle of measuring changes in scattered light. Latex particles are coated with theophylline which, in the presence of theophylline antibody solution, rapidly agglutinate. When a sample containing theophylline is introduced the agglutination reaction is partially inhibited, slowing down the agglutination process. The rate of agdutination is inversely dependent on the concentration of theophylline in the sample. By monitoring the change in scattered light as a change in absorbance, a concentration curve can be obtained. The actual change in absorbance is inversely proportional to the concentration of theophylline in the sample. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of theophylline overdose and in monitoring levels of theophylline to ensure appropriate therapy. This Application Sheet has been developed for the Hitachi 717 analyser and must be used by suitably qualified laboratory personnel under appropriate laboratory conditions.

No
The description details a standard immunoturbidimetric assay based on chemical reactions and light measurement, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data analysis or interpretation.

No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic reagent used for the quantitative determination of theophylline in serum, which aids in diagnosis and monitoring, not direct treatment.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that "Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of theophylline overdose."

No

The device is an in vitro diagnostic reagent kit, which is a physical product containing chemical components (latex particles, antibody solution) used in a laboratory setting. It is not solely software.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Explicitly stated in the Intended Use/Indications for Use: The very first sentence clearly states, "The Randox Laboratories Ltd. Theophylline Test Kit is an in vitro diagnostic reagent for the quantitative determination of theophylline in serum."
  • Explicitly stated in the Device Description: The first sentence of the Device Description also states, "The Randox Laboratories Ltd. Theophylline Test Kit is an in vitro diagnostic reagent for the quantitative determination of theophylline in serum."
  • Analyzes a sample from the human body: The device determines theophylline in "serum," which is a component of blood, a sample taken from the human body.
  • Used for diagnosis and treatment: The Intended Use states that the measurements are used "in the diagnosis and treatment of theophylline overdose and in monitoring levels of theophylline to ensure appropriate therapy." This directly aligns with the purpose of IVDs, which are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
  • Performed outside the body: The method described is a laboratory test performed on a serum sample, not directly on or in the patient's body.

All these points confirm that the Randox Laboratories Ltd. Theophylline Test Kit fits the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
