Intended Use
The BioCheck CRP Rapid Test is intended for the qualitative detection of C-reactive protein (CRP) in human serum. Measurements of CRP can be useful for the detection and evaluation of infection, tissue injury, inflammatory disorders and associated diseases.
Device Description
The BioCheck CRP Rapid Test is a colloidal gold/antibody conjugate-based immunoassay designed for the detection of CRP in human serum samples. To perform the serum CRP test, serum is added to the Sample Well. CRP in the specimen is bound by a gold-antibody conjugate forming a gold-antigen complex. This complex migrates across the membrane by capillary action and reacts with a goat anti-human CRP polyclonal antibody immobilized in the test region to produce a pink color band when the CRP concentration is equal to or greater than 4.0 mg/L. If the CRP concentration is less than 4.0 mg/L, there is no line in the test line area. The gold-conjugate continues to migrate to the control line area and produce a pink color band, indicating a valid test.

Based on the provided text, this device does not contain an AI model.

Here's why:

  • No mention of AI, DNN, or ML: The text explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found".
  • Mechanism of action is described as an immunoassay: The description details a chemical reaction involving antibodies and colloidal gold to detect CRP. This is a standard biological assay technique, not an AI process.
  • No mention of image processing: While some rapid tests might use image processing for interpretation, this description states "Mentions image processing: Not Found". The result is described as a visible pink band.
  • No description of training or test sets: AI models require training and testing data, which are completely absent from the description.
  • Performance metrics are based on agreement with a reference assay: The performance studies compare the results of this rapid test to a commercially available ELISA, which is another type of immunoassay, not an AI system.

The BioCheck CRP Rapid Test is a traditional immunoassay that relies on the specific binding of antibodies to detect the presence of CRP.

No
The device is a diagnostic test for detecting C-reactive protein (CRP) to help evaluate infection, tissue injury, and inflammatory disorders; it does not provide therapeutic treatment.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is for "qualitative detection of C-reactive protein (CRP) in human serum" and that "Measurements of CRP can be useful for the detection and evaluation of infection, tissue injury, inflammatory disorders and associated diseases." This indicates its purpose in diagnosing or aiding in the diagnosis of various medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly indicates it is a physical immunoassay kit utilizing colloidal gold/antibody conjugate and a membrane for detection, which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states "qualitative detection of C-reactive protein (CRP) in human serum." This indicates the device is used to test a biological sample (serum) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health status.
  • Device Description: The description details a laboratory-based immunoassay using human serum samples and a chemical reaction (colloidal gold/antibody conjugate) to detect the presence of CRP. This is a typical characteristic of an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Sample Type: The device uses "human serum," which is a biological specimen.
  • Purpose: The purpose is to aid in the "detection and evaluation of infection, tissue injury, inflammatory disorders and associated diseases," which are medical conditions.

All these factors align with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

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

Precision: Four laboratories were provided with blind serum samples that had been spiked with purified CRP. Five samples containing 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 mg/L of CRP and one negative control were prepared. Five blind replicates of each sample were tested in each laboratory for assay results. The assay results demonstrated 100% agreement between sites.
Interference: The following potentially interfering substances do not appear to interfere with the BioCheck CRP Rapid Test at the levels indicated below: Biotin (200 ng/mL), Bilirubin (10 mg/dL), Hemoglobin (200 mg/dL), Cholesterol (800 mg/dL), Triglyceride (1250 mg/dL). In vitro testing of common-used drugs (~10 µg/ml Final Concentration) also revealed no interference within the normal therapeutic range.
Hook Effect: When CRP standard of 200 mg/L was used for evaluation of hook effect, the test line appeared after 5 minutes. Thus, there is no hook effect if CRP concentration in patient serum sample is equal to or below 200 mg/L.
Recovery Study: Normal human serum was supplemented with purified human CRP to yield concentrations of 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, and 5.0 mg/L. These samples were tested in six replicates using the BioCheck CRP Rapid Test. The data showed 100% agreement between the expected and the observed results at each CRP concentration.
Clinical Comparison: A total of 384 patient serum samples from three separate testing groups were tested with the BioCheck CRP Rapid Test and on a commercially available quantitative assay for CRP (BioCheck hsCRP ELISA).
Group #1 compared both devices on randomly selected patient samples.
Group #2 tested both the two devices on patient samples with elevated CRP values.
Group #3 tested both the two devices on patients with known disease status (e.g., inflammation, infection).

Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)

Based on the clinical cutoff of 4.0 mg/l, the positive agreement of the BioCheck CRP Rapid Test with the BioCheck predicate device was reported as 98.2%, while negative agreement ( 4 mg/L) was reported as 98.2% and overall negative agreement was 96.3%. Individual agreements observed in each group were as follows:

  • Group #1: Positive Agreement = 97.2%, Negative Agreement = 97.1%, Overall Accuracy = 97.1%.
  • Group #2: Positive Agreement = 98.6%, Negative Agreement = 94.7%, Overall Accuracy = 96.6%.
  • Group #3: Positive Agreement = 100%, Negative Agreement = 100%, Overall Accuracy = 100%.
