Intended Use
The Sysmex UF-50 is a fully automated urine cell analyzer intended for in vitro diagnostic use in urinalysis within the clinical laboratory. The UF-50 replaces microscopic review of normal/abnormal specimens and flags specimens containing certain abnormalities which indicate the need for further testing. Laboratorians are responsible for final microscopic review of flagged abnormalities.
Device Description
The UF-50 is a fully automated urine cell analyzer for urinalysis in clinical laboratories. It analyzes formed elements in urine using flow cytometry technology.

No
The summary describes a flow cytometry-based analyzer and does not mention AI, ML, or image processing. The performance studies focus on correlation with a predicate device, not AI/ML model performance.

No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic device used in clinical laboratories for analyzing urine samples, not for providing direct therapeutic treatment.

Yes

Explanation: The device is described as a "fully automated urine cell analyzer intended for in vitro diagnostic use in urinalysis within the clinical laboratory." It "replaces microscopic review of normal/abnormal specimens and flags specimens containing certain abnormalities which indicate the need for further testing." This clearly indicates its role in diagnosing conditions by analyzing urine samples.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "fully automated urine cell analyzer" that uses "flow cytometry technology," indicating it is a hardware device with integrated software, not a software-only device.

Yes, the Sysmex UF-50 is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use / Indications for Use: The very first sentence explicitly states: "The Sysmex UF-50 is a fully automated urine cell analyzer intended for in vitro diagnostic use in urinalysis within the clinical laboratory."
  • Device Description: It describes the device as a "fully automated urine cell analyzer for urinalysis in clinical laboratories," which aligns with the purpose of an IVD device used for testing biological samples (urine) outside of the body.
  • Intended User / Care Setting: It specifies the intended users as "clinical laboratory / Laboratorians," which are the typical users of IVD devices.

The document clearly and repeatedly indicates that the device is intended for diagnostic use on samples taken from the body (in vitro).

Summary of Performance Studies

Correlation studies were performed to evaluate the equivalency of the UF-50 performance compared to the predicate device, the UF-100. The comparison results performance ochipated to mapce of the two analyzers, therefore supporting the claim of substantial equivalence.

§ 864.5200 Automated cell counter.

(a)
Identification. An automated cell counter is a fully-automated or semi-automated device used to count red blood cells, white blood cells, or blood platelets using a sample of the patient's peripheral blood (blood circulating in one of the body's extremities, such as the arm). These devices may also measure hemoglobin or hematocrit and may also calculate or measure one or more of the red cell indices (the erythrocyte mean corpuscular volume, the mean corpuscular hemoglobin, or the mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration). These devices may use either an electronic particle counting method or an optical counting method.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
