Device Description
Dade Behring Dimension Vista™ Flex® reagent cartridges are prepackaged in-vitro diagnostic test methods (assays) that are specifically designed to be used on the Vade Behring Dimension Vista™ Integrated system, a floor model, fully automated, microprocessor-controlled, integrated instrument system. The Dimension Vista™ system was previously cleared with seven associated test methods (K 051087). This Special 510(k) is submitted for a packaging modification to in-vitro diagnostic devices that have been cleared under the 510(k) process for use on Dimension® clinical chemistry systems. The packaging change is to allow use on the Dimension Vista™ system. The reagents contained in the Dimension Vista™ Flex® reagent cartridges are the same as those contained in the Flex® reagent cartridges manufactured for the Dimension® clinical chemistry systems, another family of Dade Behring analyzers. The packaging modification, does not affect the intended use of the devices, nor does it alter the fundamental scientific technology of the devices.
More Information

K 051087

No
The summary describes a packaging modification for in-vitro diagnostic reagent cartridges used on an automated system. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The focus is on the chemical assays and their performance equivalence to predicate devices.

No
Explanation: The device is described as an "in-vitro diagnostic test method" intended to measure various substances in bodily fluids for diagnosis and treatment monitoring, not to directly treat a disease or condition.

Yes

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the measurements obtained by this device (reagent cartridges for various analytes) are "used in the diagnosis and treatment" of various conditions, such as acetaminophen overdose, pancreatitis, myocardial infarction, liver diseases, diabetes mellitus, lipid disorders, and many others. This directly indicates its role in the diagnostic process. The "Device Description" also refers to the devices as "in-vitro diagnostic test methods (assays)".

No

The device is described as reagent cartridges for an in-vitro diagnostic system, which are physical components containing chemical reagents. The submission is for a packaging modification to these physical cartridges.

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 devices are "intended to measure" various substances (acetaminophen, amylase, creatine kinase, etc.) in human biological samples (serum, plasma, urine, cerebrospinal fluid). It also clearly states that these measurements are "used in the diagnosis and treatment" of various diseases and conditions. This aligns directly with the definition of an in vitro diagnostic device, which is used to examine specimens taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • Device Description: The "Device Description" section refers to the devices as "prepackaged in-vitro diagnostic test methods (assays)". This is a direct declaration that the devices are IVDs.
  • Predicate Devices: The listed predicate devices are all described as "Dimension® [Substance] Flex® reagent cartridge", and the submission is for a packaging modification to these "in-vitro diagnostic devices". This further confirms their IVD status.
