No
The summary describes a standard immunoturbidimetric assay for measuring beta-2-microglobulin levels. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any computational methods beyond standard data processing for calibration and result calculation.

No.

The device is an in vitro diagnostic assay used for the quantitative determination of beta-2-microglobulin concentration in human serum or plasma to aid in the diagnosis of certain conditions, not for direct therapy.

Yes

Explanation: The device is intended for the "Quantitative determination of beta-2-microglobulin concentration in human serum or plasma... as an aid in the diagnosis of active rheumatoid arthritis and kidney disease." This statement indicates its use in diagnosing medical conditions, thereby qualifying it as a diagnostic device.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "in vitro quantitative determination" using a "latex particle enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay" and mentions reagents, controls, and standards. It also refers to performance studies conducted on the "Abbott AEROSET® instrument," which is a piece of hardware. This indicates the device is a combination of reagents and likely hardware (the instrument), not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Explicit Statement: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" and "Device Description" sections both explicitly state "For in vitro diagnostic use".
  • Nature of the Assay: The device is a "latex particle enhanced immunoturbidimetric assay for the quantitative determination of beta-2-microglubulin concentration in human serum or plasma". This describes a test performed on biological samples outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis.
  • Intended Use in Diagnosis: The assay is intended "as an aid in the diagnosis of active rheumatoid arthritis and kidney disease". This clearly indicates its role in the diagnostic process.
  • Control and Standard Components: The inclusion of "Quantia PROTEINS Control" and "Quantia Beta-2 Microglobulin Standard" further supports its use as a diagnostic test system, as controls and standards are essential for ensuring the accuracy and reliability of IVD assays.

Summary of Performance Studies

In a method comparison study 105 serum samples with Beta-2 Microglobulin levels ranging from 1.01 to 101.1 mg/L were evaluated on the Abbott AEROSET® instrument. The slope was 0.876 and the correlation coefficient (r) was 0.9986 for the Quantia Beta-2 Microglobulin versus the predicate device.

Within run precision was assessed using the Quantia PROTEINS Controls I and II (low and high) and a third control spiked with pure Beta-2 Microglobulin at 10-15 mg/L, run in duplicate twice a day over twenty days (following the NCCLS EP5-A guideline), on the Abbott AEROSET® instrument. Control I gave a CV of 1.1 % (at a mean of 1.00 mg/L), Control II gave a CV of 0.9 % (at a mean of 5.46 mg/L) and the third control gave a CV of 0.9 % (at a mean of 13.61 mg/L). Total run precision gave a CV of 1.9% for Control I, 1.3% for Control II and 1.1% for the third control.

Linearity was assessed according to NCCLS EP6-A guideline. The assay was found to be linear within the following ranges:

  • 0.25 to 16 mg/L without the automatic rerun capability.
  • 0.02 to 100 mg/l with the automatic rerun capability.

The Limit of Quantification was defined as the minimum quantity of analyte that can be measured with a within-run CV below 20% and an error below ± 20 %. Without the automatic rerun capability, the Limit of Quantification for the Beta-2 Microglobulin assay is 0.25 mg/L and, with the automatic rerun capability, 0.02 mg/L.

The Interference study was assessed using the NCCLS guideline EP7-A. Interference testing is summarized as follows:
No significant interference from lipemia up to sample absorbance of 2.1 AU/cm at 660 nm. No significant interference from triglycerides up to concentrations of 1300 mg/dL. No significant interference from bilirubin up to concentrations of 20 mg/dL. No significant interference from haemoglobin up to concentrations of 480 mg/dL. RF interference is below 10% up to 288 IU/mL.
