Intended Use
The DPC IMMULITE 2500 analyzer is an automated immunoassay system intended to assay the same broad range of analytes in patient samples as does IMMULITE 2000. The intent of the system is to impart the same automation to the same array of immunoassays in the same hospital and commercial laboratory settings as IMMULITE 2000. Examples of the array of assays to be used with the DPC IMMULITE 2500 are two for which data in support of a claim of substantial equivalence have been submitted to FDA: hCG (product code: DHA) and TSH (JLW). The system is intended to produce safe and effective performance when used by medical laboratory personnel as is the predicate system, IMMULITE 2000.
Device Description
The IMMULITE® 2500 is an Automated Immunoassay Analyzer. It is a discrete photometric chemistry analyzer for clinical use intended to duplicate manual analytical procedures by performing automatically various steps such as pipetting, preparing filtrates, heating, and measuring color intensity. This device is intended for use in conjunction with certain materials to measure a variety of analytes. The IMMULITE 2500 uses ¼ inch polystyrene antibody coated beads and assay specific antibody or antigen labeled with alkaline phosphatase. The chemiluminescent detection system is a phosphate ester stabilized dioxetane. Cleavage of the phosphate ester by alkaline phosphatase results in the decomposition of the dioxetane and the emission of photons, which are quantified by a luminometer and are proportional to the quantity of analyte present.

Not Found

No
The description focuses on automated immunoassay procedures and chemiluminescent detection, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No
The device is an automated immunoassay system intended to measure analytes in patient samples for diagnostic purposes, not for treating any condition or disease.

Yes

The device is an automated immunoassay system that measures analytes in patient samples. This process provides information about a patient's health status, which is used for medical diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "Automated Immunoassay Analyzer" and describes physical processes like pipetting, heating, and measuring color intensity, indicating it is a hardware device with integrated software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is an "automated immunoassay system intended to assay the same broad range of analytes in patient samples". This means it is used to test samples taken from patients (in vitro) to diagnose or monitor medical conditions.
  • Device Description: The description details how the device performs analytical procedures on samples, such as pipetting, heating, and measuring color intensity, to quantify analytes. This is a core function of an IVD.
  • Care Setting and User: The device is intended for use by "medical laboratory personnel in hospital and commercial laboratory settings," which are typical environments for IVD testing.
  • Predicate Device: The predicate device, IMMULITE 2000 (K970227), is also an automated immunoassay analyzer, further confirming the IVD nature of this type of device.

The description explicitly states that it assays analytes in patient samples, which is the defining characteristic of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Dr. Levine:

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).
