Intended Use
The Access Ultrasensitive hGH Calibrators are intended to calibrate the Access Ultrasensitive hGH Assay for the quantitative determination of hGH levels in human serum and plasma on the Access Immunoassay Systems.
Device Description
The Access Ultrasensitive hGH calibrators are lyophilized calibrators to be used with the Access Ultrasensitive hGH assay to generate the hGH calibration curve on the Access Immunoassay Systems. The Access Ultrasensitive hGH calibrator kit contains six 2.0 mL vials, one for each calibrator level. The Access Immunoassay Systems utilize a one-step immunoenzymatic ("sandwich") assay for the quantitative measurement of hGH.

No
The summary describes a set of calibrators for an immunoassay system, which is a standard laboratory technique. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No.
The device is a calibrator intended to quantify hGH levels, not to treat or diagnose a condition.

No
The device described, "Access Ultrasensitive hGH Calibrators," is explicitly stated as intended to "calibrate the Access Ultrasensitive hGH Assay." Calibrators are used to ensure the accuracy and reliability of a test, not to perform the diagnostic measurement itself. The diagnostic device would be the "Access Ultrasensitive hGH Assay" and the "Access Immunoassay Systems."

No

The device description clearly states that the device is a kit containing lyophilized calibrators in vials, which are physical components, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states the device is for the "quantitative determination of hGH levels in human serum and plasma". This involves testing biological samples (serum and plasma) outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description: The description details the use of the calibrators with an "Access Ultrasensitive hGH assay" on "Access Immunoassay Systems". Immunoassays are a common method used in IVD testing to measure specific substances in biological samples.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies mention "validation testing" and comparison to "currently commercialized Access Ultrasensitive hGH calibrators", which are typical activities for demonstrating the performance of an IVD.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a predicate device (K003089; Access Ultrasensitive hGH Calibrators) further confirms its classification as an IVD, as predicate devices are used for comparison in the regulatory submission process for new IVDs.

All these points align with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description

The Access Ultrasensitive hGH calibrators are lyophilized calibrators to be used with the Access Ultrasensitive hGH assay to generate the hGH calibration curve on the Access Immunoassay Systems. The Access Ultrasensitive hGH calibrator kit contains six 2.0 mL vials, one for each calibrator level. The Access Immunoassay Systems utilize a one-step immunoenzymatic ("sandwich") assay for the quantitative measurement of hGH.

Intended Use

The Access Ultrasensitive hGH Calibrators are intended to calibrate the Access Ultrasensitive hGH Assay for the quantitative determination of hGH levels in human serum and plasma using the Access Immunoassay Systems.

AttributeAccess Ultrasensitive hGH CalibratorsAccess Ultrasensitive hGH Calibrators (modified)
Intended UseCalibration for quantitative determination of hGH levels in human serum and plasmaCalibration for quantitative determination of hGH levels in human serum and plasma

TraceabilityTraceable to WHO 80/505Traceable to WHO 98/574

Summary of Technological Characteristics

The device modification consists of restandardizing the Access Ultrasensitive hGH Calibrators from the WHO Pituitary hGH 80/505 standard to the second international standard, WHO 98/574. The restandardization involves the use of the new WHO standard as the reference for assigning the calibrator values; there is no change to calibrator materials, functionality, or stability,

Conclusion

The restandardization of the Access Ultrasensitive hGH calibrators does not change the intended use or indications for use, alter the fundamental scientific technology, or affect the safety and efficacy of the device. Performance data generated from validation testing demonstrates that the restandardized Access Ultrasensitive hGH Calibrators on the Access Immunoassay Systems is substantially equivalent to the currently commercialized Access Ultrasensitive hGH calibrators.
