Intended Use
Opiate 300 ng (OP) Reagent, in conjunction with the SYNCHRON® System OP 300 Urine Calibrators, is intended for the qualitative determination of opiates in human urine, at a cutoff value of 300 ng/mL (morphine), on SYNCHRON Systems. The Opiate assay provides a rapid screening procedure for determining the presence of opiates in urine. This test provides only a preliminary analytical result: a positive result by this assay should be confirmed by another generally accepted non-immunological method, such as thin layer chromatography (TLC), gas chromatography (GC), or gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). GC/MS is the preferred confirmatory method.12 Clinical consideration and professional judgement should be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are used.
Device Description
The SYNCHRON Systems Opiate (OP) reagent is designed for optimal SYNCHRON performance on on the CX (CX4/4CE/4A/4PRO, CX5/5CE/5A/5PRO. CX7/7RTS/7Δ/7PRO. CX9ALX/9PRO) and LX (LX20/PRO/LXi) Systems. The reagent kit contains one 250-test cartridge that is packaged separately from the associated calibrators.

No
The document describes a reagent kit for a qualitative chemical assay, not a software or imaging device that would typically incorporate AI/ML. There are no mentions of AI, ML, or related concepts.

No
Explanation: This device is for qualitative determination of opiates in human urine, which is a diagnostic purpose, not a therapeutic one. Therapeutic devices are used for treatment or prevention of disease.

Yes
The device is intended for the qualitative determination of opiates in human urine, providing a preliminary analytical result which can be used to screen for the presence of opiates. This aligns with the definition of a diagnostic device as it is used to identify a condition or substance (opiates) in a biological sample.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "reagent" designed for use on "SYNCHRON Systems," which are laboratory analyzers. This indicates a chemical reagent and associated hardware, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "qualitative determination of opiates in human urine." This is a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample (urine) outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Sample Type: The device analyzes "human urine," which is a biological specimen.
  • Purpose: The purpose is to screen for the presence of opiates, which is a diagnostic activity.
  • Device Description: It's a "reagent" designed for use on "SYNCHRON Systems," which are laboratory analyzers. This further indicates it's used in a laboratory setting for diagnostic testing.

The definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device is a medical device that is used to perform tests on samples such as blood, urine, or tissue to detect diseases or other conditions. This device fits that definition.

§ 862.3650 Opiate test system.

(a)
Identification. An opiate test system is a device intended to measure any of the addictive narcotic pain-relieving opiate drugs in blood, serum, urine, gastric contents, and saliva. An opiate is any natural or synthetic drug that has morphine-like pharmocological actions. The opiates include drugs such as morphine, morphine glucoronide, heroin, codeine, nalorphine, and meperedine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of opiate use or overdose and in monitoring the levels of opiate administration to ensure appropriate therapy.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). An opiate test system is not exempt if it is intended for any use other than employment or insurance testing or is intended for Federal drug testing programs. The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9, provided the test system is intended for employment and insurance testing and includes a statement in the labeling that the device is intended solely for use in employment and insurance testing, and does not include devices intended for Federal drug testing programs (e.g., programs run by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. military).
