Intended Use

The EasyStat analyzer is designed for clinical laboratory use, making direct measurements of pH (hydrogen ion activity), PCO2 (partial pressure of carbon dioxide), PQ2 (partial pressure of oxygen),Hct (Hematocrit), Na* (sodium), K' (potassium), and Ca* (ionized calcium) on whole blood samples from syringes or capillary tubes.

This analyzer is used by laboratory trained technicians in the clinical laboratories to aide in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with electrolyte, blood gas and/or acid base disturbances. The patient results obtained from the EasyStat analyzer must be used in conjunction with the overall patient clinical condition before corrective / therapeutic action is taken.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for the EasyStat pH, PCO2, PO2, Hct, Na+, K+, Ca++ Analyzer. It does not contain the acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets those criteria. Such information would typically be found in the 510(k) submission itself, which is not publicly available in this FDA letter.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the provided text.

Dear Mr. Honkonen:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced aboye and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
