Intended Use
The Ischemia Albumin Cobalt Binding Test (ACB®) is a quantitative in vitro diagnostic test used on human serum that detects Ischemia Modified Albumin (IMA™) by measuring the cobalt binding capacity of albumin in human serum. IMA is intended for use in conjunction with ECG and cardiac troponin as an aid to the short term risk stratification of patients presenting with chest pain suggestive of cardiac origin. Thus, in patients with chest pain or equivalent symptoms suggestive of cardiac origin, with non-diagnostic ECG and normal troponin, a negative IMA can be used as an aid to rule out Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) in low risk patients. The safety and effectiveness of this device for use in patients with potential Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) with negative ECG; or positive ECG; or positive ECG combined with negative, low, or normal troponin levels; or positive troponin levels also has not been established. IMA results do not correlate with blood flow and in the event of a positive IMA, ECG, or troponin test result, could be misleading as either ruling in or ruling out ACS.
Device Description
The Ischemia ACB® Test measures the cobalt binding capacity of albumin in a serum specimen. Cobalt is added to serum and allowed to react. Dithiothreitol (DTT), a colorimetric indicator, is added to the reacted specimen and the degree of color formation is detected spectrophotometrically on clinical chemistry analyzers. In normal patients, cobalt binds at the N-terminus of albumin leaving little cobalt to react with DTT and form a colored product. In serum of patients with ischemia, cobalt does not bind to the metal binding sites leaving more free cobalt to react with DTT and form a darker color.

No
The device description details a chemical reaction and spectrophotometric detection method. There is no mention of AI/ML algorithms, image processing, or data analysis techniques that would suggest the use of AI/ML. The performance studies focus on analytical validation of the chemical test.

No
The provided text describes an in vitro diagnostic test that aids in risk stratification but does not directly treat a medical condition.

Yes
The device is described as a "quantitative in vitro diagnostic test used on human serum" and its intended use is "as an aid to the short term risk stratification of patients presenting with chest pain suggestive of cardiac origin" and "as an aid to rule out Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS)". These statements clearly indicate its purpose is to diagnose or aid in the diagnosis of a medical condition.

No

The device is an in vitro diagnostic test that involves chemical reactions and spectrophotometric detection on clinical chemistry analyzers, indicating it is a hardware-based device with associated reagents.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is a "quantitative in vitro diagnostic test used on human serum".
  • Device Description: The description details how the test is performed on a biological sample (human serum) outside of the body ("in vitro") to detect a specific substance (Ischemia Modified Albumin).
  • Purpose: The test is intended to provide information about a patient's health status (aid to short term risk stratification of patients presenting with chest pain suggestive of cardiac origin).

These are all key characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

IMA is intended for use in conjunction with ECG and cardiac troponin as an aid to the short term risk stratification of patients presenting with chest pain suggestive of cardiac origin.

The safety and effectiveness of this device for use in patients with potential Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) with negative ECG; or positive ECG; or positive ECG combined with negative, low, or normal troponin levels; or positive troponin levels combined with negative, low, or normal ECG has not been established. IMA results do not correlate with ST segment changes and in the event of a positive IMA, ECG, or troponin test result, could be misleading as either ruling in or ruling out ACS.

§ 862.1215 Creatine phosphokinase/creatine kinase or isoenzymes test system.

(a)
Identification. A creatine phosphokinase/creatine kinase or isoenzymes test system is a device intended to measure the activity of the enzyme creatine phosphokinase or its isoenzymes (a group of enzymes with similar biological activity) in plasma and serum. Measurements of creatine phosphokinase and its isoenzymes are used in the diagnosis and treatment of myocardial infarction and muscle diseases such as progressive, Duchenne-type muscular dystrophy.(b)
Classification. Class II.
