No
The document describes a standard enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) kit and an automated processor, neither of which mention or imply the use of AI or ML for data analysis or interpretation.

No.
The device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) test kit used for the semi-quantitative measurement of antibodies to cardiolipin, aiding in the assessment of thrombosis risk. It is used for diagnosis and risk stratification, not for treating or preventing a disease.

Yes

The device is an indirect enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for the semi-quantitative measurement of antibodies as an 'aid in the assessment of the risk of thrombosis'. This clearly indicates its use in diagnostics to help assess a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and a test kit, which are hardware components used for laboratory testing. It also mentions use with an automated EIA processor.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the kit is for the "semi-quantitative measurement of IgG, IgM and IgA antibodies to cardiolipin in human serum as an aid in the assessment of the risk of thrombosis in patient with SLE or SLE-like disorders." This indicates that the device is intended to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine a specimen (human serum) to provide information for diagnostic purposes (aiding in the assessment of thrombosis risk).
  • Device Description: The "Device Description" further clarifies that it is an "enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the semi-quantitative measurement of IgG, IgM and IgA antibodies to cardiolipin in human serum." ELISA is a common technique used in in vitro diagnostic testing.
  • Sample Type: The device uses "human serum," which is a biological specimen collected from a patient.
  • Purpose: The purpose is to measure specific antibodies in the serum to aid in a clinical assessment.

All of these characteristics align with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

A. Relative Sensitivity and Specificity

Two hundred and three frozen, retrospective sera were tested for IgG/IgM/IgA cardiolipin antibodies using the I wo hand careen Test Kit and a commercially available ELISA kit for detecting cardiolipin IgG/IgM/IgA antibodies. Based on the results of this resing the relative sensitivity, relative specificity and overall agreement were calculated. The results obtained are shown below. Further resolution of the discordant samplesshowed that were samples that were negative in the Is anti-Cardiolipin Screen and positive by the other EIA were negative by a referee EIA method. The remaining ten discordant samples were positive in the referee test.

B. Clinical Sensitivity and Specificity

A total of three hundred and forty-five frozen retrospective, clinically characterized sera were assayed using the Is anti-Cardiolipin Screen Test Kit in order to assess both the clinical sensitivity and clinical specificity of the test system. These samples consisted of 215 normal sera, 57 sera from patients with diagnosed anti-phospholipid syndrome (APS), 34 sera from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), 24 sera from patients with other autoimmune diseases such as Sjogren's Syndrome, scleroderma, polymyositis and rheumatoid arthritis and 15 samples from patients with positive RPR titers. Results are summarized below. Note that the all positive samples were also positive when tested by another commercially available ELISA test.

C. Correlation of Manual and MAGO Plus results

The Is anti-Cardiolipin Screen Test Kit has been developed for automated as well as manual use. To demonstrate the equivalence of the manual and MAGO Plus procedures, the results of 152 serum samples tested for anti-Cardiolipin IgG/IgM/IgA antibodies by both the manual and automated methods, and whose values were within the reportable range of the assay, were plotted. Scattergrams and regression lines of the results obtained with 95% confidence intervals are shown in FIGURE 1. The data indicate good correlation with a Correlation Coefficient (r) of 0.9497.

D. Precision

To assess the precision of the Is anti-Cardiolipin Screen Test Kit six serum samples of varying reactivity (two negative and four positive) were tested in three separate runs. Precision was assessed both manually and using the MAGO Plus Automated EIA Processor. The results obtained are shown in below.

Device Description: The Is anti-Cardiolipin Screen Test System is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the semi-quantitative measurement of IgG, IgM and IgA antibodies to cardiolipin in human serum

Intended Use: The assay is intended for the semi-quantitative measurement of IgG. IgM and IgA antibodies to cardiolipin in human serum. The results of the assay can be used as an aid in the assessment of the risk of thrombosis in patients with SLE or SLE-like dosorders.

Principle of the Procedure:

The Is-anti-Cardiolipin Screen Test System is an indirect solid-phase enzyme immunoassay. Highly purified cardiolipin is coated onto plastic microwells and saturated with highly purified human B2-Glycoprotein I. Controls and diluted patient samples are added to the wells. Any patient IgG, IgM or IgA antibodies in the sample bind to the well. Anti-human horseradish peroxidase conjugate is then added After incubation and washing, a substrate solution is then added to each well. In the presence of bound enzyme, the substrate is converted to a blue colored product. After acid additon to stop the reaction, a yellow end product is formed that is read spectrophotometrically at 450 nm (reference 600-630 mm) and is directly proportional to the concentration of cardiolipin IgG, IgM and IgA antibodies in the sample.

Expected Values

The prevalence of anti-cardiolipin antibodies may vary depending on a number of factors such as age, gender, geographical location, race, type of test used and clinical history of individual patients. Antibodies to anti-cardiolipin are generally absent, or have a very low incidence, in the normal healthy population. Increased incidence can occur in the elderly population. A published study has shown a prevalence of 12% in the elderly population (mean age of 70 years) as opposed to 2% for a younger population. In addition, anti-cardiolipin antibodies were detected in 23% of elderly individuals who were also positive for anti-nuclear antibodies (12).

In the present study, the expected values for a normal, healthy population were assessed by testing sera from one hundred and forty-eight S. Florida blood donors (ninety-eight males and fifty females) in the Is-anti-Cardiolipin Screen Test Kit. One hundred and forty sera (94.6%) were negative for antibodies, eight sera (5.4%) were positive and none were equivocal. The age distribution and antibody prevalence for this population are shown in the table below.

The expected values for a clinical population were assessed by testing fifty-seven sera from patients with a diagnosis of anti-phospholipid syndrome (APS) in the Is-anti-Cardiolipin Screen Test Kit. Fifty-four (94.7%) were positive, three (5.3%) were negative and none were equivocal for IgG/IgM/ IgA antibodies.

Histograms showing the distribution of values for these normal and clinical populations are shown in FIGURES 1 and 2.
