Intended Use
The Elecsys Cortisol is an immunoassay for the in-vitro quantitative determination of cortisol in serum, plasma, urine and saliva. The determination of cortisol is used for the recognition and treatment of functional disorders of the adrenal gland. The electrochemiluminescence immunoassay "ECLIA" is intended for use on the Roche Elecsys 1010/2010 and MODULAR ANALYTICS E170 (Elecsys module) immunoassay analyzers.
Device Description
The Elecsys Cortisol Assay is a two step sandwich immunoassay with streptavidin microparticles and electrochemiluminescence detection. Results are determined using a calibration curve that is generated specifically on each instrument by a 2 point calibration and a master curve provided with the reagent bar code.
More Information

No
The summary describes a standard immunoassay technology and does not mention any AI or ML components.

No
The device is an in-vitro diagnostic immunoassay used for the quantitative determination of cortisol, which aids in the recognition and treatment of functional disorders, but it does not directly perform a therapeutic function.

Yes

The device is an immunoassay for the quantitative determination of cortisol, which is used for the "recognition and treatment of functional disorders of the adrenal gland." This direct reference to "recognition" of disorders indicates a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device is an immunoassay kit intended for use on specific hardware analyzers (Roche Elecsys 1010/2010 and MODULAR ANALYTICS E170). It involves reagents, microparticles, and electrochemiluminescence detection, which are all hardware components and chemical processes, not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states "for the in-vitro quantitative determination of cortisol in serum, plasma, urine and saliva." The term "in-vitro" is a key indicator of an IVD.
  • Purpose: The determination of cortisol is used for "recognition and treatment of functional disorders of the adrenal gland," which is a diagnostic purpose.
  • Sample Type: The device analyzes biological samples (serum, plasma, urine, and saliva) outside of the body.

These characteristics align with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

| Substantial
equivalence | The Elecsys Cortisol Immunoassay is substantially equivalent to other
devices legally marketed in the United States. We claim equivalence to the
Salimetrics HS (high sensitivity) Salivary Cortisol Enzyme cleared under
K011323. Both products are intended for use in the quantitative
determination of cortisol in human saliva. |
