Intended Use
The ACON Quik-Check II Home Pregnancy Test Device is for the qualitative detection of human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) in urine to aid in the determination of pregnancy. It is intended for non-professional, over-the-counter use. The ACON Quik-Check II Home Pregnancy Test Device is intended for non-professional, over-the counter use for the qualitative identification the elevated level of human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) in urine to aid in the determination of pregnancy.
Device Description
The test utilizes a combination of mouse monoclonal and goat polyclonal antibody in conjunction with a Strepavidin-Biotin ligand-binding system to qualitatively detect elevated levels of hCC in urine sample. The assay is conducted by using a dropper to transfer three drops of urine from a urine sample that has been collected in a cup, or clean, dry container and observing for the formation of colored lines. The specimen migrates via capillary action along the components of the test device to react with the colored conjugate. During migration, hCG molecules in the positive urine sample react with the hCG-specific antibodies, which were conjugated with colored particles, and form a colored line on the "Test Region" of the membrane. A colored line forms in the test (T) region indicates a positive result; while absence of this colored line indicates a negative result. To serve as a procedural control, a colored line at the control (C) region will always appear, indicating adequate sample volume and proper wicking, regardless of the presence of hCG. Absence of this control line in the C region indicates that the test result is "invalid". The ACON Quik-Check II Home Pregnancy Test Device qualitatively detects hCG in urine with a designated cutoff hCG concentration of 25 mIU/ml. This test has been standardized to the World Health Organization Third International Standard. The addition of hLH (300 mIU/ml), hFSH (1.000 mIU/ml), and hTSH (1,000 uIU/ml) to negative (0 mIU/ml hCG) and positive (25 mIU/ml hCG) urine showed no cross-reactivity.
More Information

No
The device description details a traditional lateral flow immunoassay based on antibody reactions and visual interpretation of colored lines. There is no mention of any computational analysis, algorithms, or learning processes.

No
This device is a diagnostic tool used to determine pregnancy by detecting hCG; it does not provide any treatment or therapy.

Yes

The intended use explicitly states, "The ACON Quik-Check II Home Pregnancy Test Device is for the qualitative detection of human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) in urine to aid in the determination of pregnancy." This indicates that the device is used to detect a biological marker (hCG) to determine a medical condition (pregnancy), which is the definition of a diagnostic device.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical test strip that utilizes chemical reactions and capillary action to produce visible lines, indicating a positive or negative result. This is a hardware-based diagnostic test, 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 detection of human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) in urine to aid in the determination of pregnancy." This is a diagnostic purpose performed on a biological sample (urine).
  • Device Description: The description details how the test works by reacting with components in the urine sample to detect hCG. This is the core function of an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Sample Type: It uses a urine sample, which is a biological specimen.
  • Purpose: The purpose is to aid in the determination of pregnancy, which is a medical condition.

The fact that it's intended for "non-professional, over-the-counter use" doesn't change its classification as an IVD. IVDs can be designed for various user types and settings.

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

Clinical studies were conducted to compare the results of ACON Quik-Check II Home Pregnancy Test Device to the current ACON QUIK-CHECK Home Pregnancy Test Device (K012215). The consumer field study included 113 female participants and demonstrated an accuracy of over 99% correlation between the two hCG tests. The retrospective focus group study on reproducibility and precision included 35 female participants and demonstrated an accuracy of over 99% correlation between the two hCG tests. The results also showed that the vast majority of the participants found ACON Quik-Check II Home Pregnancy Test Device very easy to use, and that they had no trouble understanding the labeling, reading the instructions, or interpreting the results.
Additional laboratory study results on performance include specificity, interference substances, urinary pH, urinary specific gravity, and does hook effect. These results indicate that the ACON Quik-Check II Home Pregnancy Test Device is robust and will give accurate results under many adverse conditions. The should be suited for OTC use.
The overall performance data indicate that ACON Quik-Check II Home Pregnancy Test Device is safe, effective and substantially equivalent to ACON QUIK-CHECK Home Pregnancy Test Device (K012215) currently on the U. S. OTC market.
