The summary describes a standard in vitro diagnostic test using prepackaged reagents and a clinical chemistry system, with no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.
No.
Explanation: This device is an in vitro diagnostic test for measuring iron levels, which is used for diagnosis and treatment monitoring, not for direct therapeutic intervention.
Yes.
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" and "Device Description" sections explicitly state that the device is an "in vitro diagnostic test" and an "in vitro diagnostic device" respectively, used for the "diagnosis and treatment of diseases".
No
The device description explicitly states it is an "in vitro diagnostic device that consists of prepackaged reagents in a plastic eight well cartridge". This describes a physical hardware component (reagent cartridge) and not a software-only device.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: Explicitly states it is an "in vitro diagnostic test intended to quantitatively measure iron in human serum and plasma." It also mentions its use in the "diagnosis and treatment of diseases."
- Device Description: Clearly identifies the device as an "in vitro diagnostic device."
- Nature of the Test: The test measures a substance (iron) in a biological sample (serum and plasma) outside of the body, which is the definition of an in vitro test.
- Clinical Application: The results are used for diagnosis and treatment decisions, which is a key characteristic of an IVD.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
1. Precision/Reproducibility:
Reproducibility testing was done in accordance with the CLSI/NCCLS Approved Guideline for Evaluation of Precision Performance of Clinical Chemistry Devices (EPS-A2). Commercial controls and serum and plasma pools were analyzed in duplicate twice a day for 20 days. The repeatability and within-lab standard deviations were calculated by analysis of variance method.
2. Linearity/assay reportable range:
Solutions of NIST SRM 937 were prepared by sequential mixing to create equally spaced samples ranging from 0 to 2000 µg/dL iron. The linearity of iron on the Dimension® RxL by the Dimension® IRON assay was evaluated by comparing observed versus expected values across the expected range. A linear regression analysis was performed on the data and plotted. The observed linearity across the reportable range has a correlation coefficient of 0.999 (using Pearson correlation calculation), slope of 0.999, and an intercept of 0.178. The assay range claim is 5.0 µg/dL to 1000 µg/dL.
3. Traceability (controls, calibrators, or method):
The recommended reference material for the Dimension® IRON method is the Dimension® IRON Calibrator (Cat. No. DC85). The assigned values of this product are standardized to SRM NIST 937 Iron Metal Clinical Standard which is a Standard Reference Material of the National Institute of Standards & Technology.
4. Detection limit:
The analytical sensitivity of Dimension® IRON is 5 µg/dL [0.9 µmol/L]. This sensitivity is defined as the mean value (n=20) plus two standard deviations of the low level (0 ug/dL [0 umol/L] IRON Calibrator.
5. Analytical specificity:
Interference testing was performed according to the CLSI/NCCLS Protocol EP-7A. Systematic inaccuracies (bias) due to these substances are less than 10% at an iron concentration of 26 to 38 µg/dL [4.7 to 6.8 µmol/L] and 118 to 136 µg/dL [21.1 to 24.3 umol/L].
6. Method comparison with predicate device:
A total of 147 samples were tested using the Dimension® IRON and IRN assays on a Dimension® RxL clinical chemistry system. 99 individual patient serum samples and 48 individual patient serum samples that were spiked with various amounts of NIST-937 reference iron material were tested. Linear regression analysis was performed using the SAS® System. The range of IRON values in the correlation study was: 9 to 963 ug/dL.
7. Matrix comparison:
129 matched specimens of serum and heparinized plasma were drawn and processed by the IRON method on the Dimension® clinical chemistry system. Linear regression analysis showed excellent agreement between serum, lithium heparin plasma and sodium heparin plasma specimens. No clinically significant difference was observed between serum and plasma samples.

K. Test Principle:
The automated Dimension® IRON method is an adaptation of direct iron assays using the chromophore Ferene ® . Under acidic conditions, iron (Fe+++) bound to the protein transferrin is released. In the presence of the reducing agent ascorbic acid, (Fe+++) is reduced to (Fe++). (Fe ++) forms a blue complex with 3-(2-pyridyl)-5,6-bis-2-(5-furyl sulfonic acid)-1,2,4-triazine, disodium salt (Ferene®). The absorbance of the complex, measured using a bichromatic (600, 700 nm) endpoint technique, is directly proportional to the concentration of transferrin-bound iron in the serum.
L . Performance Characteristics:
- Precision/Reproducibility:
