The ADVIA® 2120 Nucleated Red Blood Cell (nRBC) method is intended to provide an in vitro diagnostic, quantitative determination of nucleated red blood cells in peripheral whole blood.

Device Description

The technological and methodological principles of the ADVIA 2120 with Autoslide used for the quantitative measurement of blood cells in whole blood specimens will be used without change except for the addition of a new methodology to quantitate nucleated red blood cells and correct for white blood cells in peripheral whole blood.

The ADVIA 2120 Nucleated Red Blood Cell (nRBC) method is described below:
a) The ADVIA 2120 nRBC Analysis method uses histogram analysis routines to analyze the unstained region of the Peroxidase channel as well as an arithmetic algorithm that combines counts from the Peroxidase and Basophil/Lobularity channels to enumerate nRBCs.
b) The analysis corrects the White Blood Cell Count for the presence of nRBCs, as well as the WBC Differential. It reports the corrected WBC count and the corrected differential.

The new nRBC method will report the following Red Blood Cell Parameters-

  1. % nucleated Red Blood Cells (% nRBC)
  2. absolute nRBC (# of nRBC per microliter)
AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the ADVIA® 2120 with Autoslide and NRBC Method. However, it does not include detailed acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets specific performance metrics in the format requested.

The text focuses on explaining the new functionality (nRBC analysis) and its technological characteristics compared to the predicate device. It also includes the FDA's 510(k) clearance letter, which confirms substantial equivalence but does not detail the underlying performance studies or acceptance criteria that led to that determination.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested table or answer most of the questions because the information is not present in the provided document.

Here's what can be extracted based on the limited information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

  • Acceptance Criteria: Not explicitly stated in the document.
  • Reported Device Performance:
    • Reports "% nucleated Red Blood Cells (% nRBC)"
    • Reports "absolute nRBC (# of nRBC per microliter)"
    • Reports nRBC counts for whole blood samples with either 200 or more nRBC/uL, or with at least 2% nRBCs with a WBC count of at least 3,000/ uL.
    • Corrects the White Blood Cell Count for the presence of nRBCs.
    • Recalculates the WBC Differential, and recalculates %MN and %PMN.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not provided.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not provided.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not provided.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance: Not applicable. This is a standalone automated analyzer, not an AI-assisted reader system.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done: Yes, the device is described as an "Automated Hematology Analyzer," indicating standalone performance. The document states, "The ADVIA 2120 nRBC method uses histogram analysis routines... as well as an arithmetic algorithm that combines counts... to enumerate nRBCs." This describes the algorithm's standalone operation.

7. The type of ground truth used: The text mentions "nRBC counts are performed by manual methods that are well established as reference methods in clinical laboratories and consistent with NCCLS H-20A." This suggests that manual microscopy (per NCCLS H-20A guidelines) would have been used as the ground truth for validation, likely expert consensus through manual review.

8. The sample size for the training set: Not provided.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not explicitly stated, but likely through manual methods consistent with NCCLS H-20A, as referenced for "reference methods."

The only change between the predicate device and the new device is the introduction of a new method for nucleated red blood cell analysis.

5. Device Description

The technological and methodological principles of the ADVIA 2120 with Autoslide used for the quantitative measurement of blood cells in whole blood specimens will be used without change except for the addition of a new methodology to quantitate nucleated red blood cells and correct for white blood cells in peripheral whole blood.

The ADVIA 2120 Nucleated Red Blood Cell (nRBC) method is described below:

  • a) The ADVIA 2120 nRBC Analysis method uses histogram analysis routines to analyze the unstained region of the Peroxidase channel as well as an arithmetic algorithm that combines counts from the Peroxidase and Basophil/Lobularity channels to enumerate nRBCs.
  • b) The analysis corrects the White Blood Cell Count for the presence of nRBCs, as well as the WBC Differential. It reports the corrected WBC count and the corrected differential.

The new nRBC method will report the following Red Blood Cell Parameters-

    1. % nucleated Red Blood Cells (% nRBC)
    1. absolute nRBC (# of nRBC per microliter)

{2}------------------------------------------------

6. Summary of Technological Characteristics

Nucleated red blood cells (nRBCs, erythroblasts, normoblasts, or normocytes) are immature red blood cells that are normally found only in the bone marrow of healthy adults. Cells of this stage are usually observed in the peripheral blood of newborn infants or in patients with responses to hemolytic crisis.

The presence of nRBCs in peripheral blood can falsely elevate the WBC count in automated hematology analyzers and interfere with the accuracy of the automated WBC differential.

The ADVIA 2120 nRBC method reports nRBC counts for whole blood samples with either 200 or more nRBC/uL, or with at least 2% nRBCs with a WBC count of at least 3,000/ uL.

The method reports both an absolute nRBC count (10°/L) and a percentage count (#NRBC/100 WBC). The software also corrects the WBC count for nRBC, recalculates the WBC differential, and recalculates %MN and %PMN.

The method identifies nRBCs by nuclear size in the peroxidase negative area of the Peroxidase channel, and by nuclear density and volume in the Basophil/Lobularity channel.

In the unstained region of the Peroxidase channel cytogram, nRBC nuclei are located between the noise and lymphocytes. They often form distinct populations that are analyzed to produce counts.

In the Basophil/Lobularity channel cytogram, nRBC nuclei are located in the polymorphonuclear region, rather than the mononuclear region, because they are denser than lymphocyte or monocyte nuclei. Since they are not the nuclei of polymorphonuclear cells, the difference between the number of nuclei in this region and the sum of neutrophils and eosinophils in the Peroxidase channel may equal the nRBC count.

7. Conclusion

The information and performance data provided as part of this submission demonstrate that the nRBC method on the ADVIA 2120 with Autoslide is substantially equivalent to products already in commercial distribution
