The summary describes a standard immunoassay for measuring parathyroid hormone levels and does not mention any AI or ML components. The performance studies focus on method comparison and analytical metrics, not AI/ML model performance.
No
This device is an immunoassay used to measure parathyroid hormone levels for diagnostic purposes and to aid in monitoring therapeutic intervention but does not directly provide therapy.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that "Measurements of parathyroid hormone levels are used in the differential diagnosis of hypercalcemia...and hypocalcemia...resulting from disorders of calcium metabolism." It also mentions its use "as an aid in monitoring therapeutic intervention of secondary hyperparathyroidism." These directly relate to diagnosing and monitoring medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "two-site chemiluminescence assay for use with the Nichols Advantage® Specialty System," indicating it is a physical assay kit used with a hardware system, not a standalone software device.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the device is used to "measure the levels of parathyroid hormone in serum, EDTA plasma and heparinized plasma." It also describes how these measurements are used in the "differential diagnosis of hypercalcemia and hypocalcemia" and as an "aid in monitoring therapeutic intervention." These are all diagnostic purposes performed on biological samples in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: The device is described as a "two-site chemiluminescence assay," which is a common type of laboratory test performed on biological samples.
- Performance Studies: The document includes performance studies comparing the device to another assay using biological samples (serum and renal dialysis samples).
- Predicate Device: The predicate device listed is also an "Immunoassay," further indicating its use in laboratory testing of biological samples.
All of these points align with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Nichols Advantage® Bio-Intact PTH (1-84) immunoassay is intended for use with the Nichols Advantage Specialty System to measure the levels of parathyroid hormone in serum, EDTA plasma and heparinized plasma. Measurements of parathyroid hormone levels are used in the differential diagnosis of hypercalcemia (abnormally high levels of calcium in the blood) and hypocalcemia (abnormally low levels of calcium in the blood) resulting from disorders of calcium metabolism. Measurements of parathyroid hormone levels with the Bio-Intact PTH (1-84) Immunoassay are also used as an aid in monitoring therapeutic intervention of secondary hyperparathyroidism that frequently occurs in chronic kidney disease. Assay results should be used in conjunction with other clinical data to assist the clinician in making individual patient management decisions.
