Intended Use
The evidence® Opiates test has been designed for use only on the evidence® analyser for qualitative detection of opiates in urine, using a cutoff concentration of 300ng/ml. Qualitative results obtained can be utilised in the diagnosis and treatment of opiate use or overdose. This assay provides only a preliminary analytical test result which should be confirmed by a more specific method, such as GC/MS. The Opiates Assay must only be used by suitably qualified laboratory personnel under appropriate laboratory conditions. The evidence® Drugs of Abuse Calibrators. The evidence® Drugs of Abuse Calibrators are liquid Calibrators containing benzoylecgonine, amphetamine, methamphetamine, methadone and morphine sulphate pentahydrate. There are 9 levels of calibrator. They have been developed for use in calibration of the evidence® system. The evidence® Drugs of Abuse Calibrators must only be used by suitably qualified laboratory personnel under appropriate laboratory conditions.

No
The summary describes a qualitative immunoassay for detecting opiates in urine and associated calibrators. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or any other section. The analysis is based on a cutoff concentration, which is a standard immunoassay method, not indicative of AI/ML.

No
The device is described as an assay and calibrators for the qualitative detection of opiates, used in diagnosis, not for treatment or therapy.

Yes

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that "Qualitative results obtained can be utilised in the diagnosis and treatment of opiate use or overdose."

No

The device description explicitly mentions "liquid Calibrators containing benzoylecgonine, amphetamine, methamphetamine, methadone and morphine sulphate pentahydrate," which are physical components, not software. The device is an assay and calibrators used with an "evidence® analyser," implying hardware is involved.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states "for qualitative detection of opiates in urine" and that the results "can be utilised in the diagnosis and treatment of opiate use or overdose." This clearly indicates the device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body (urine) to provide information for diagnostic purposes.
  • Device Description: The device is described as an "evidence® Opiates Assay" and includes "evidence® Drugs Of Abuse Calibrators." Assays and calibrators used for testing biological samples are typical components of IVD systems.
  • Specimen Type: The device is designed for use with "urine," which is a human biological specimen.
  • Purpose: The purpose is to detect the presence of opiates, which is a substance relevant to a person's health status (drug use or overdose).

The definition of an IVD generally includes devices intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens derived from the human body solely or principally for the purpose of providing information concerning a physiological or pathological state, or concerning a congenital abnormality, or to determine the safety or suitability of a potential recipient, or to monitor therapeutic measures. This device fits this definition.

§ 862.3650 Opiate test system.

(a)
Identification. An opiate test system is a device intended to measure any of the addictive narcotic pain-relieving opiate drugs in blood, serum, urine, gastric contents, and saliva. An opiate is any natural or synthetic drug that has morphine-like pharmocological actions. The opiates include drugs such as morphine, morphine glucoronide, heroin, codeine, nalorphine, and meperedine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of opiate use or overdose and in monitoring the levels of opiate administration to ensure appropriate therapy.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). An opiate test system is not exempt if it is intended for any use other than employment or insurance testing or is intended for Federal drug testing programs. The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9, provided the test system is intended for employment and insurance testing and includes a statement in the labeling that the device is intended solely for use in employment and insurance testing, and does not include devices intended for Federal drug testing programs (e.g., programs run by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. military).

Dear Dr. Armstrong:

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.
