No
The summary describes a calibrator set for a diagnostic kit, which is a chemical reagent, not a software-based device. There are no mentions of AI, ML, image processing, or any other indicators of AI/ML technology.

No
This device is intended for use in the quantitative determination of Total Iron-Binding Capacity (TIBC) in human serum, which is a diagnostic test, not a therapeutic treatment.

Yes
The device is a calibrator set used to establish reference points for the quantitative determination of Total Iron-Binding Capacity (TIBC) in human serum, which is a diagnostic measurement.

No

The 510(k) summary describes a "Calibrator Set" and a "Kit," which are physical components used in a laboratory test. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component of the device.

Based on the provided information, yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "quantitative determination of Total Iron-Binding Capacity (TIBC) in human serum." This involves testing a biological sample (human serum) outside of the body to obtain diagnostic information.
  • Purpose: It's used "to establish points of reference that are used in the quantitative determination" with an IVD kit (RDI Direct TIBC Kit). This means it's a component or accessory specifically designed to be used with an IVD test.

The definition of an IVD generally includes reagents, calibrators, control materials, kits, instruments, apparatus, equipment, or systems intended to be used in vitro for the examination of specimens derived from the human body, solely or principally for the purpose of providing information concerning a physiological or pathological state, or a congenital abnormality, or to monitor therapeutic measures.

This calibrator set fits this definition as it's a material used in vitro with an IVD kit to provide information about a physiological state (TIBC levels).

Trade/Device Name: Direct TIBC Calibrator Set Regulation Number: 21 CFR 862.1150 Regulation Name: Calibrator Regulatory Class: Class II Product Code: JIT Dated: October 25, 2005 Received: October 26, 2005

Dear Dr. Lawlor:

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. Iisting 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).
