Measurement of myoglobin aids in the rapid diagnosis of heart and renal disease.

Device Description

The Myoglobin reagents. Myoglobin calibrators, the Access Access Immunoassay Analyzer and the Access 2 Immunoassay Analyzer comprise the Access Immunoassay Systems for the quantitative determination of cardiac Myoglobin in human serum and plasma.

AI/ML Overview

The document provided describes the Access Myoglobin assay. Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study details:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

ParameterAcceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
PrecisionConsistent and reproducible results (low %CV)- Within-run imprecision: 1.58%CV to 2.20%CV- Between-run imprecision: 2.34%CV to 4.24%CV- Total imprecision: 3.03%CV to 4.54%CV
Analytical SensitivityAbility to detect low levels of Myoglobin (distinguishable from zero)The lowest detectable level of Myoglobin distinguishable from zero (with 95% confidence) is <1.0 ng/mL.
Dilution Recovery (Linearity)Average recovery above a certain threshold (e.g., ~90-110%)- Average recovery: 93%- Individual sample average recoveries: 86% to 100%
Method ComparisonGood agreement with a predicate device (high correlation, low bias)- Comparison of 148 samples (0.00 to 3.227.80 ng/mL): - Equation: Y = 1.113X + 15.903 - Correlation Coefficient (R): 0.997
Matched Sample ComparisonNo clinically significant bias between different sample types- Lithium heparin plasma vs. sodium heparin plasma or serum: No clinically significant bias noted.- EDTA plasma samples: A bias was noted (Y = 0.8925X + 5.0115, R = 0.9981). The document specifies "See Reference Interval section," indicating this bias was acknowledged and likely addressed with separate reference limits.
Analytical SpecificityNo significant interference from common substances- No significant interference from therapeutic drugs or biological substances.- None of the RF or HAMA samples tested above the Upper Reference Limit (URL).- Two heterophile samples tested above the URL and were not blocked by HBT, indicating a potential limitation for these specific samples.
StabilityReagents and calibrators maintain performance over time- Myoglobin reagents stable for 56 days after opening.- Calibrators stable for 60 days after opening.- Calibration curve stable for 56 days.
Reference IntervalsEstablished reference limits for different populations/sample types- LHS (Lithium Heparin, Serum) URL (97.5th percentile): 66 ng/mL for Females, 106 ng/mL for Males.- EDTA URL (97.5th percentile): 58 ng/mL for Females, 91 ng/mL for Males.

2. Sample Sizes Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

  • Method Comparison: 148 samples were used.
  • Dilution Recovery (Linearity): An unspecified number of lithium heparin plasma samples were used.
  • Analytical Specificity: "None of the RF samples or the HAMA samples," and "Two heterophile samples."
  • Reference Intervals: No specific sample size is given for the population used to establish the reference intervals, but separate limits were computed for LHS and EDTA assays for males and females.
  • Data Provenance: The document does not specify the country of origin of the data or whether the studies were retrospective or prospective.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications:

  • This document describes an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) device for quantitative determination of Myoglobin levels. For such devices, "ground truth" is typically established through a reference measurement procedure or comparison to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than through expert human interpretation of images or clinical findings.
  • The predicate device used for comparison was the "Access® Myoglobin Beckman Coulter Inc." (510(k) Number: K000196). The performance of this predicate device serves as a benchmark for comparison.
  • No human experts were explicitly "establishing ground truth" in the sense of consensus reads for the analytical performance studies.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

  • Not applicable as this is an IVD device for quantitative measurement, not a system requiring human interpretation adjudication. Measurements are taken and compared to established analytical performance criteria and a predicate device.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:

  • No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is typically performed for diagnostic imaging or interpretation systems where human readers are involved. This document describes an automated immunoassay system.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance:

  • Yes, the entire submission describes the standalone performance of the Access Myoglobin assay, which is an algorithm-driven automated immunoassay system. The reported performance metrics (precision, sensitivity, linearity, method comparison, etc.) are all for the algorithm (assay) itself, without human-in-the-loop performance being a variable.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

  • For the analytical performance studies:
    • Method Comparison: The "ground truth" for the new device was established by comparing its measurements against those obtained from the predicate device (Access® Myoglobin Beckman Coulter Inc., K000196). This is a common approach for demonstrating substantial equivalence for IVDs.
    • Other analytical studies (e.g., precision, linearity, sensitivity): Ground truth is inherent in the experimental design, using known concentrations, samples with established values, or statistical methods to define performance characteristics. For instance, for sensitivity, the detection limit is determined against a zero calibrator.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

  • The document does not specify a training set size. For an immunoassay, the "training" analogous to machine learning models often refers to the development and optimization of the assay reagents and protocols. The studies described are typically considered verification and validation studies (test sets) for the finalized assay.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

  • As above, explicit "training set ground truth establishment" in the context of machine learning is not directly applicable here. The development of an immunoassay involves extensive laboratory work to optimize reagent concentrations, reaction conditions, and calibration curves. This optimization process, drawing on many samples and experiments, is analogous to training. The performance of these optimized parameters is then validated through the analytical studies described.

To the right of the symbol is the company name, "BECKMAN COULTER," written in a bold, sans-serif font, with "BECKMAN" stacked above "COULTER."

Analytical Sensitivity: The lowest detectable level of Myoglobin distinguishable from zero (Access Myoglobin calibrator S0) with 95% confidence is <1.0 ng/mL.

Dilution Recovery (Linearity): Linearity studies performed by diluting lithium heparin plasma samples with Access Sample Diluent A provided an average recovery of the samples of 93%, with individual sample average recoveries ranging from 86% to 100%.

Method Comparison: A comparison of cardiac Myoglobin values from 148 samples, ranging from 0.00 to 3.227.80 ng/mL, run with both the Access New Myoglobin assay and the Current BCI Myoglobin assay demonstrated good agreement with the following statistical data: Y =1.113X + 15.903 R=0.997

Matched Sample Comparison: No clinically significant bias was noted between lithium heparin plasma and sodium heparin plasma or serum samples. A bias was noted when using EDTA plasma samples. (Y= 0.8925X + 5.0115 R=0.9981)*.

Analytical Specificity: There was no significant interference from therapeutic drugs or biological substances. None of the RF samples or the HAMA samples tested above the Upper Reference Limit (URL). Two heterophile samples tested above the URL. Of this group, both heterophile samples tested did not prove to be blocked by treatment with HBT (heterophile blocking tubes).

Stability: Myoglobin reagents are stable for 56 days after opening and calibrators are stable for 60 days after opening. The calibration curve is stable for 56 days.

Reference Intervals: Separate reference limits were computed for LHS (Lithium Heparin, Serum) and EDTA assays for males and females.

The Lithium Heparin and Serum (LHS) upper reference limit (97.5th percentile) was determined to be 66 ng/mL for Females and the 106 ng/mL for Males. The EDTA upper reference limit (97.5" percentile) was determined to be 58 ng/mL for females and 91 ng/mL for males

Conclusion

Access Myoglobin and Myoglobin calibrators on the Access Immunoassay Systems are substantially equivalent to another test currently in commercial distribution for the measurement of Myoglobin.
