Intended Use
The ACON® mAMP 500 One Step Methamphetamine Test Strip and Test Device are rapid immunochromatographic assays for the qualitative detection of methamphetamine, a central nervous stimulating drug, in urine. Measurements obtained by these devices are used in the diagnosis and treatment of methamphetamine use or overdose. This assay provides only a preliminary result. In order to obtain a confirmed analytical result, a more specific alternate chemical method is needed. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) is the preferred confirmation method.
Device Description
The ACON mAMP-500 One Step Methamphetamine Test Strip and ACON mAMP-500 One Step Methamphetamine Test Device are competitive binding, lateral flow immunochromatographic assays for the qualitative screening of Methamphetamine in a urine sample. The test is based on the principle of antibody immunochemistry. It utilizes the mouse monoclonal antibody to selectively detect elevated levels of Methamphetamine and its metabolite in urine at a cutoff concentration of 500 ng/mL. These tests can be performed without the use of an instrument. A drug-positive urine specimen will not generate a colored-line in the designated test region, while a negative urine specimen or a urine specimen containing Methamphetamine at the concentration i below the cutoff level will generate a colored-line in the test region. To serve as a procedural control, a colored-line should always appear at the control region, indicating that proper volume of specimen has been added and membrane wicking has occurred.

No
The device description details a simple lateral flow immunochromatographic assay based on antibody binding, which does not involve AI or ML. The performance studies are based on comparisons to existing tests and GC/MS, not on training or testing AI/ML models.

No.
The device is for diagnostic purposes, specifically for the qualitative detection of methamphetamine in urine, which aids in diagnosis and treatment monitoring, but does not directly provide therapy.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that "Measurements obtained by these devices are used in the diagnosis and treatment of methamphetamine use or overdose."

No

The device description clearly states it is a "rapid immunochromatographic assay" and a "competitive binding, lateral flow immunochromatographic assay," which are physical test strips/devices, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states "qualitative detection of methamphetamine... in urine" and that the measurements are "used in the diagnosis and treatment of methamphetamine use or overdose." This clearly indicates a diagnostic purpose performed on a sample taken from the human body.
  • Device Description: The description details a "competitive binding, lateral flow immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative screening of Methamphetamine in a urine sample." This describes a test performed in vitro (outside the body) on a biological specimen (urine).
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies involve testing clinical urine specimens and comparing the results to a reference method (GC/MS) and another FDA-cleared test. This is typical for validating an IVD.

The definition of an IVD generally includes devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body for the purpose of providing information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease or other conditions. This device fits that description.
