No
The summary describes a quantitative immunoassay for βhCG levels, which is a standard laboratory test and does not mention any AI/ML components or image processing.

No.
The device is an in vitro diagnostic assay used for quantitative determination of total βhCG levels in human serum and plasma to detect early pregnancy. It does not directly treat or prevent a disease or condition.

Yes
The device is described as providing "in vitro quantitative determination of total βhCG levels in human serum and plasma," which is a diagnostic measurement. It is also "indicated for use with patients where an early detection of pregnancy status is desired," fulfilling a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of a reagent pack and calibrators, which are physical components, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the assay provides "in vitro quantitative determination of total βhCG levels in human serum and plasma." The term "in vitro" is a key indicator of an IVD, meaning it's used to test samples taken from the body, rather than directly on the body.
  • Sample Type: The assay is designed to test "human serum and plasma," which are biological samples taken from a patient.
  • Purpose: The purpose is to determine "total βhCG levels," which is a common diagnostic test performed on biological samples to assess pregnancy status.

All of these points align with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

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

To demonstrate substantial equivalence, a method correlation study, using paired plasma and serum samples, was conducted using the Access Total βhCG assay. Study results demonstrate good correlation between the plasma and serum samples.

General Information

Trade NameAccess® Total βhCG
Common NameHuman chorionic gonadotropin
Classification NameHuman chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test system (21 CFR
862.1155)

Device Description

The Access Total BhCG assay consists of the reagent pack and calibrators. Consumables required for the assay include substrate and wash buffer.

Intended Use

The Access® Total BhCG assay is a paramagnetic particle, chemiluminescent immunoassay for the quantitative determination of total ßhCG levels in human serum and plasma using the Access Immunoassay Systems.

Substantial Equivalence Comparison

The Access Total ßhCG assay is substantially equivalent to the previously cleared Access Total BhCG assay (K980173). Both assays utilize the same methodology, are the same product type, and are quantitative. The subject and predicate assays include the same components. The only difference between the two assays is that the sample type has been expanded to include human plasma samples.

Supporting Data

To demonstrate substantial equivalence, a method correlation study, using paired plasma and serum samples, was conducted using the Access Total βhCG assay. Study results demonstrate good correlation between the plasma and serum samples.

Conclusion

The information provided in this submission supports a substantial equivalence determination, and therefore 510(k) premarket notification clearance of the Access Total BhCG assay.
