Intended Use
For the in vitro quantitative determination of N-terminal proBrain natriuretic peptide in human serum and plasma. Elecsys proBNP is used as an aid in the diagnosis of individuals suspected of having congestive heart failure. The test is further indicated for the risk stratification of patients with acute coronary syndrome or congestive heart failure. The test may also serve as an aid in the assessment of increased risk of cardiovascular events and mortality in patients at risk for heart failure who have stable coronary artery disease. The electrochemiluminescence immunoassay "ECLIA" is intended for use on the Roche Elecsys 1010, Elecsys 2010 and MODULAR ANALYTICS E170 immunoassay analyzers.
Device Description
A device for the measurement of human proBNP in serum or plasma.

No
The summary describes a standard immunoassay for measuring a specific biomarker and does not mention any AI or ML components in the device description or performance studies.

No
The device is used for in vitro quantitative determination of proBNP to aid in diagnosis and risk stratification, not for treating a condition.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that "Elecsys proBNP is used as an aid in the diagnosis of individuals suspected of having congestive heart failure."

No

The device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) assay kit intended for use on specific immunoassay analyzers (hardware). The description focuses on the performance characteristics of the assay itself, not on software functionality.

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 N-terminal proBrain natriuretic peptide in human serum and plasma." The term "in vitro" means "in glass" or "outside the body," which is a key characteristic of IVDs.
  • Device Description: The "Device Description" confirms it's a "device for the measurement of human proBNP in serum or plasma," which are biological samples taken from the body and analyzed outside the body.
  • Test Method: The description mentions the use of an "electrochemiluminescence immunoassay 'ECLIA'," which is a laboratory-based test method performed on biological samples.
  • Analyzers: The test is intended for use on specific laboratory analyzers (Roche Elecsys 1010, Elecsys 2010, and MODULAR ANALYTICS E170), further indicating a laboratory-based diagnostic test.
  • Clinical Use: The intended use describes how the test is used as an aid in diagnosis, risk stratification, and assessment of cardiovascular events, all of which are clinical applications of diagnostic testing.

All these points align with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Dr. Ambrose:

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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820).
