Intended Use
The Chempaq XBC Analyzer is an in vitro diagnostic method intended for the quantitative determination of the concentration of white blood cells ("WBC"); granulocytes ("GRN"); lymphocytes ("LYM"); monocytes ("MON"); and total hemoglobin ("Hb") in whole-blood samples (finger stick or venous sample). The Chempaq XBC Analyzer is indicated for use in: clinical laboratories, and for point-of-care hematology determinations in doctors' offices or by healthcare professionals in hospital settings to identify and classify one or more of the formed elements of blood.
Device Description
The Chempaq XBC Analyzer consists of a single use cartridge, called the PAQ (Particle Analyzer and Quantifier), and a stationary Reader with a docking station, called a Cradle. The PAQ is connected to the Cradle by a simple push fit. The PAQ includes all required reagents and will, when connected to the Cradle, perform all sample manipulations required for the analysis. The sample manipulation is facilitated by electrical and pneumatic connections between the PAQ and the Cradle. The user is not required to add any reagent to the Reader. The test procedure is very simple, as the user is only required to apply blood to the PAQ and place it into the Cradle. The rest of the test is carried out automatically within 3 minutes. No manipulation of reagents or other materials by the user is required.

The summary describes a standard automated hematology analyzer using a cartridge and reader system. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in the context of analyzing blood samples. The performance studies focus on traditional analytical parameters like precision, accuracy, and linearity.

No

The device is an in vitro diagnostic method for quantitative determination of blood components, not a therapeutic device designed to treat or alleviate a disease or condition.

Yes
The Chempaq XBC Analyzer is an in vitro diagnostic method intended for the quantitative determination of specific blood components, which classifies it as a diagnostic device.

No

The device description clearly states it consists of a single-use cartridge (PAQ) and a stationary Reader with a docking station (Cradle), which are hardware components.

Yes, the Chempaq XBC Analyzer is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is an "in vitro diagnostic method intended for the quantitative determination of the concentration of white blood cells... and total hemoglobin... in whole-blood samples." This directly aligns with the definition of an IVD, which is used to examine specimens taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • Sample Type: The device analyzes "whole-blood samples," which are biological specimens taken from the human body.
  • Purpose: The purpose is to "identify and classify one or more of the formed elements of blood," which provides diagnostic information.
  • Care Setting: The device is indicated for use in "clinical laboratories, and for point-of-care hematology determinations in doctors' offices or by healthcare professionals in hospital settings," all of which are typical settings for IVD use.

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

The performance validation of the Chempaq XBC Analyzer is divided into: 1) general performance studies; and 2) special studies as described below. Testing was performed under two separate situations: 1) laboratory bench testing; and 2) point-of-use clinical testing, including point-of-care and physician office laboratory locations. Test performance was evaluated for the following parameters:

  • Precision and accuracy (general performance); .
  • Venous vs. capillary samples (general performance); .
  • Linearity (special study); .
  • Interferences (special study); .
  • Pre-analytical errors (special study); .
  • Stability studies (general performance); .
  • Batch variability (in-batch and between-batch). .

All performance testing was carried out following approved test protocols. Several National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards ("NCCLS") and International Council for Standardization in Haematology ("ICSH") documents were used as reference and are specifically identified in the 510(k) notice. In all instances, the Chempaq XBC Analyzer functioned as intended. Performance data demonstrate that the Chempaq XBC Analyzer is as safe and r frective as Coulter® ACT™ diff Analyzer.

§ 864.5220 Automated differential cell counter.

(a)
Identification. An automated differential cell counter is a device used to identify one or more of the formed elements of the blood. The device may also have the capability to flag, count, or classify immature or abnormal hematopoietic cells of the blood, bone marrow, or other body fluids. These devices may combine an electronic particle counting method, optical method, or a flow cytometric method utilizing monoclonal CD (cluster designation) markers. The device includes accessory CD markers.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is the FDA document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Premarket Notifications for Automated Differential Cell Counters for Immature or Abnormal Blood Cells; Final Guidance for Industry and FDA.”
