The description focuses on an enzyme activity test and does not mention AI or ML.
No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic test used to detect an enzyme associated with bacterial vaginosis, aiding in diagnosis rather than providing direct therapy.
Yes
The device is described as an "aid in the diagnosis of BV infection" and is intended for "in vitro diagnostic use," clearly indicating its role in the diagnostic process.
No
The device description clearly states it is an "enzyme activity test" for detecting sialidase activity in "vaginal fluid specimens." This indicates a chemical or biological test kit, which involves physical reagents and materials, not solely software.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Explicitly Stated: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section clearly states "For In Vitro Diagnostic Use Only."
- Nature of the Test: The device is an "enzyme activity test for use in the detection of vaginal fluid specimens." This involves testing biological samples in vitro (outside of the body) to aid in diagnosis.
- Purpose: The test is intended "as an aid in the diagnosis of BV infection," which is a diagnostic purpose.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
BVBLUE is an enzyme activity test for use in the detection of vaginal fluid specimens for sialidase activity, an enzyme produced by bacterial pathogens such as Gardnerella vaginalis, Bacteroides spp., Prevotella spp., and Mobiluncus spp.
BVBLUE is indicated for use in women suspected of having Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) infection, e.g., women with vaginal discharge typical of BV and/or women with previous history of BV, as an aid in the diagnosis of BV infection. BVBLUE test results should be considered in conjunction with other clinical and patient information (see Limitations of the Procedure).
For In Vitro Diagnostic Use Only. BVBLUE is indicated for professional use only and may be used at the point of care and/or physician's offices. It is not intended for home-use.

Dear Mr. Tsakeris:
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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
