Intended Use
Plateletworks (K990398) is an in vitro diagnostic screening assay for the determination of % platelet aggregation in fresh whole blood samples taken during cardiac interventional procedures as measured by a change in platelet count due to activation of functional platelets. It may be used at the point-of-care on the Ichor or Coulter hematology analyzers as a screening tool for the detection of trends suggestive of platelet dysfunction. Any abnormal baseline or otherwise suspicious result would require repeating the Plateletworks test procedure and/or further additional investigation with more definitive test methods, including conventional platelet aggregometry.

Automated Platelet Aggregation System
More Information

No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or any related concepts like image processing, training sets, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML devices. The description focuses on a standard in vitro diagnostic assay.

No
The device is described as an "in vitro diagnostic screening assay" used to measure platelet aggregation, which suggests it is used for diagnostic purposes rather than for treating a condition.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that Plateletworks is an "in vitro diagnostic screening assay."

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "Automated Platelet Aggregation System" and mentions use with "Ichor or Coulter hematology analyzers," which are hardware devices. The intended use also describes an "in vitro diagnostic screening assay" performed on "fresh whole blood samples," indicating a physical interaction with biological material and requiring hardware for analysis.

Yes, based on the provided information, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use / Indications for Use: The description explicitly states it is an "in vitro diagnostic screening assay" and is used for testing "fresh whole blood samples." This clearly indicates it is used to examine samples taken from the body outside of the body, which is the definition of an in vitro diagnostic.

Dear Ms. Franks:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above 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 Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. 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 Parts 801 and 809); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820). This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed
