Intended Use

Device Description
The AZOG hCG One-Step Pregnancy Test Strip (Urine) is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine to aid in the early detection of pregnancy. The test utilizes a combination of antibodies including a monoclonal hCG antibody to selectively detect elevated levels of hCG. The assay is conducted by immersing the test strip in a urine specimen and observing the formation of colored lines. The specimen migrates via capillary action along the membrane to react with the colored conjugate. Positive specimens react with the specific antibody-hCG-colored conjugate to form a colored line at the test line region of the membrane. Absence of this colored line suggests a negative result. To serve as a procedural control, a colored line will always appear at the control line region if the test has been performed properly.

No
The device description details a rapid chromatographic immunoassay based on antibody reactions and visual interpretation of colored lines. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any computational analysis of the results. The performance studies are based on traditional analytical methods.

No.

The device is a diagnostic tool used to detect pregnancy, not to treat a condition or disease.

Yes
The device is described as a "rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine to aid in the early detection of pregnancy," which directly indicates its use for diagnosing pregnancy.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical test strip that utilizes chromatographic immunoassay and capillary action, indicating a hardware component is essential for its function.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine to aid in the early detection of pregnancy." This involves testing a biological sample (urine) outside of the body to provide information about a physiological state (pregnancy).
  • Device Description: The description details a "rapid chromatographic immunoassay" that utilizes antibodies to detect a substance (hCG) in a urine specimen. This is a classic description of an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Sample Type: The test is performed on "urine," which is a biological specimen collected from the human body.
  • Purpose: The purpose is to "aid in the early detection of pregnancy," which is a medical condition or physiological state.

The definition of an IVD generally includes devices intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device clearly fits that definition.

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

Assay Precision/Tolerance
An evaluation of AZOG, Inc. hCG One-Step Urine Pregnancy Test (DipStick) was conducted using a panel of 3 coded specimens. The proficiency panel contained negative, low positive and high positive specimens. Two different operators tested each level in replicates of five over a period of three days. No differences were observed within run (5 replicates), between runs (three different assay days), or between operators (two operators).

Correlation
A total of 150 urine specimens were tested using the AZOG, Inc. hCO One-Step Urine Pregnancy Test (DipStick). When these results were compared to results obtained from a similar device, the result demonstrated 100% overall agreement (for an accuracy of greater than or equal to 99%) of the AZOG, Inc. bCG One-Step Urine Pregnancy Test (DipStick).

Sensitivity and Specificity
The AZOG, Inc. hCG One-Step Urine Pregnancy Test (DipStick) detects hCG at 25 mlU/mL or greater. The test has been standardized to the W.H.O. Third International Standard. The addition of LH (1000 mIU/mL), FSH (1000 mIU/mL) and TSH (1000 µIU/mL) to negative (0 mIU/mL hCG) and positive (25 mIU/mL hCG) specimens showed no cross-reactivity.

Interference Study
None of the potentially interfering substances tested interfered in the AZOG, Inc. hCG One-Step Urine Pregnancy Test (DipStick)assay.
