§ 864.5220 Automated differential cell counter.

(a)
Identification. An automated differential cell counter is a device used to identify one or more of the formed elements of the blood. The device may also have the capability to flag, count, or classify immature or abnormal hematopoietic cells of the blood, bone marrow, or other body fluids. These devices may combine an electronic particle counting method, optical method, or a flow cytometric method utilizing monoclonal CD (cluster designation) markers. The device includes accessory CD markers.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is the FDA document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Premarket Notifications for Automated Differential Cell Counters for Immature or Abnormal Blood Cells; Final Guidance for Industry and FDA.”

2.0 Pre-amendment Predicate Method

The COULTER® LH 750 Body Fluids Application claims substantial equivalence to the preamendment predicate method for enumeration of WBCs and RBCs via manual cell count method in a counting chamber by a skilled competent technician.

FDA 510(k) Number(s): Not applicable

3.0 Device Description

The COULTER® LH 750 Body Fluids Application is an automated method for enumeration of RBCs and WBCs in body fluids on the COULTER LH 750 Hematology Analyzer, an automated hematology analyzer capable of supplying a complete blood cell analysis and includes a differential leukocyte cell count. The LH 750 also provides automated reticulocyte analysis and enumeration of nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs).

4.0 Principle of Method:

The COULTER LH 750 Body Fluids Application is an automated method for enumeration of RBCs and WBCs in body fluids on the COULTER LH 750 Hematology Analyzer. The LH 750 utilizes the Coulter Principle for automatically enumerating and sizing blood cells. The analyzer uses a reagent system consisting of an isotonic diluent, lytic reagents to lyse the red cells without significantly affecting the white cells and an instrument cleaner.

Dear Dr. Sugrue:

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 (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820).
