No
The description focuses on photo-optical measurement of clotting time and standard statistical analysis (correlation, precision). There is no mention of AI/ML algorithms or techniques.

No
This device is an in-vitro diagnostic instrument used for coagulation testing, which means it analyzes samples to provide diagnostic information, rather than directly treating a condition.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that "The Fisher Diagnostics ThromboScreen® 1000 is a photo-optical instrument used for the performance of in-vitro diagnostic coagulation testing". The "Device Description" also reiterates that it is "used for the performance of in-vitro diagnostic clotting procedures".

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "photo-optical instrument" and details hardware components like an LED light source and an incubator block.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: Explicitly states "used for the performance of in-vitro diagnostic coagulation testing of citrated plasma specimens in the clinical laboratory." and "intended to be used... for the quantitative determination of fibrinogen in plasma." This directly aligns with the definition of an in vitro diagnostic device, which is used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of disease or for the assessment of health.
  • Device Description: Describes the instrument as "used for the performance of in-vitro diagnostic clotting procedures in the clinical laboratory."
  • Specimen Type: The device tests "citrated plasma specimens," which are specimens derived from the human body.
  • Testing Location: The testing is performed "in the clinical laboratory," a typical setting for IVD use.

The information provided clearly indicates that the Fisher Diagnostics ThromboScreen® 1000 and the associated reagent are used to perform diagnostic tests on human specimens outside of the body, which is the core definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use of the Devices

The Fisher Diagnostics ThromboScreen® 1000 is a photo-optical instrument used for the performance of in-vitro diagnostic coagulation testing of citrated plasma specimens in the clinical laboratory. Coagulation testing capabilities of the device include routine clotting tests such as Prothrombin Time (PT). Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT), and Fibrinogen.

The Pacific Hemostasis® Fibrinogen Reagent plus Kaolin is intended to be used on the Fisher Diagnostics ThromboScreen® 1000 Coagulation Instrument for the quantitative determination of fibrinogen in plasma.

Summary of Substantial Equivalence Comparisons

The ThromboScreen® 1000 (TS1000) was compared to the MLA 900C and the MLA 1600C (K884863 & K931206, respectively). All three instruments have a similar intended use: for in-vitro diagnostic coagulation testing in the clinical laboratory. Further, the proposed device and the predicate devices have the same measurement system for clotting assays: photo-optical clot detection systems.

The TS1000 is an automated coagulation instrument. In contrast, the MLA 900C is semiautomated and the MLA 1600C is a fully-automated instrument. The MLA 900C requires manual save an automatic pipetting system, which adds both sample and test reagent. The light source for the MLA instruments is a Halogen lamp and the wavelength is set at 550 nm (for clotting assays). In contrast, the TS1000 utilizes an LED optic at 660 nm. Although differences in light source and wavelength exist, all instruments have been optimized for their light source/filter combinations. The performance data generated support this statement (Tables 1-3).

Comparison testing was performed in-house and at two external testing laboratories using Pacific Hemostasis (PH) brand reagents. As part of this submission, kaolin was added to the fibrinogen reagent used on the TS1000 to optimize detection. Specimens were evaluated from apparently healthy individuals and from subjects with different pathological conditions which are expected to affect the results for a particular assay. Table 1 summarizes the results of the comparison studies between the proposed and the predicate devices.
