No
The 510(k) summary describes a calibrator product for a clinical chemistry system, which is a standard laboratory reagent. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies sections. The predicate device is also a calibrator, further indicating a non-AI/ML technology.

No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic product used to calibrate a clinical chemistry system, not directly treat a medical condition.

No
Explanation: The device is a calibrator for a diagnostic method, not a diagnostic device itself. Its intended use is to calibrate the Tacrolimus method for a clinical chemistry system.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "stabilized human whole blood hemolysate product" and a "kit consisting of two vials of each calibrator level," indicating it is a physical, in vitro diagnostic product, not software.

Yes, based on the provided information, 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 an "in vitro diagnostic product intended to be used to calibrate the Tacrolimus (TACR) method for the Dimension® clinical chemistry system." This directly aligns with the definition of an IVD, which are used to examine specimens taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
  • Device Description: The description mentions it's a "stabilized human whole blood hemolysate product containing tacrolimus," which is a biological sample used in laboratory testing.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device(s)" with a K number (P970007) indicates that this device has gone through a regulatory process (likely 510(k) clearance in the US) where it was compared to a previously cleared IVD.

Therefore, all the key indicators point to this device being an IVD.

§ 862.3200 Clinical toxicology calibrator.

(a)
Identification. A clinical toxicology calibrator is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to establish points of reference that are used in the determination of values in the measurement of substances in human specimens. A clinical toxicology calibrator can be a mixture of drugs or a specific material for a particular drug (e.g., ethanol, lidocaine, etc.). (See also § 862.2 in this part.)(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.

5. Device Intended Use

The Dimension® TACR Calibrator is an in vitro diagnostic product intended to be used to calibrate the Tacrolimus (TACR) method for the Dimension® clinical chemistry system.

6. Medical device to which equivalence is claimed and comparison information

The Dimension® TACR Calibrators are substantially equivalent in intended use and technological characteristics to the Abbott IMx® Tacrolimus II Calibrators. Both devices are calibrators intended for use as a reference in measuring tacrolimus with their respective assays. The Dimension® TACR Calibrators consist of 5 calibrator levels - 0, 3, 6, 12, 32.5 ng/mL tacrolimus - in whole whole blood hemolysate. The Abbott IMx® Tacrolimus II Calibrators consist of 6 calibrator levels - 0, 3, 6, 12, 20, and 30 ng/mL in whole blood hemolysate.
