Intended Use
Skin cholesterol as measured by PREVU* POC can be used as part of risk assessment for coronary heart disease in persons with a history of myocardial infarction and/or in persons suspected of having significant multi-vessel coronary artery disease (>50% stenosis in >1 vessel as diagnosed by coronary angiography) where further diagnostic evaluation is being considered. Test results, when considered in conjunction with clinical evaluation, blood cholesterol tests and other risk factors identified for coronary artery disease, will aid the physician in focusing diagnostic and patient management options.

Not Found

No
The provided 510(k) summary does not contain any keywords or descriptions indicative of AI or ML technology, such as mentions of algorithms, machine learning, deep learning, training sets, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML models.

No
The device is used for risk assessment of coronary heart disease by measuring skin cholesterol; it does not treat or prevent a disease.

Yes
The device measures skin cholesterol as part of risk assessment and further diagnostic evaluation for coronary heart disease, indicating a diagnostic purpose.

Unknown

The provided 510(k) summary lacks a "Device Description" section, which is crucial for determining if the device is software-only or includes hardware components. The intended use describes a measurement ("Skin cholesterol as measured by PREVU* POC"), implying a physical interaction or data acquisition, but without a device description, it's impossible to confirm if this measurement is performed by software alone or requires dedicated hardware.

Based on the provided information, it is highly unlikely that this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes measuring "skin cholesterol" as part of a risk assessment for coronary heart disease. While this information is used in a diagnostic context, the measurement itself is being taken from the skin, not from a biological sample in vitro (outside the body).
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is listed as "Skin." IVDs typically analyze biological samples like blood, urine, tissue, etc., which are processed in vitro.
  • Lack of IVD Indicators: The description lacks any mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or laboratory procedures, which are hallmarks of IVD devices.

In summary, the device appears to be a non-invasive method for measuring a substance on or within the skin, which is then used in a diagnostic process. This does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Trade/Device Name: PREVU* POC Skin Sterol Test Regulation Number: 21 CFR 862.1475 Regulation Name: Lipoprotein Test System Regulatory Class: Class I, subject to 21 CFR 862.9(c)(4) Product Code: LBS Dated: August 18, 2006 Received: August 18, 2006

Dear Mr. Tsakeris:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act and the limitations described below. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

The Office of In Vitro Diagnostic Device Evaluation and Safety has determined that there is a reasonable likelihood that this device will be used for an intended use not identified in the proposed labeling and that such use could cause harm. Therefore, in accordance with Section 513(i)(1)(E) of the Act, the following limitation must appear in the Warnings section of the device's labeling:

The safety and effectiveness of this device for use in screening the general population for coronary artery disease or for use as a substitute for blood cholesterol tests or a substitute for other risk factors identified for coronary artery disease have not been established.

Please note that the above labeling limitations are required by Section 513(i)(1)(E) of the Act. Therefore, a new 510(k) is required before these limitations are modified in any way or removed from the device's labeling.

1

The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and permits your device to proceed to the market. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification if the limitation statement described above is added to your labeling.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820).

If you desire specific information about the application of other labeling requirements to your device, or questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of In Vitro Diagnostic Device Evaluation and Safety at (301) 594-3084. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification''(21 CFR Part 807.97). You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (240) 276-3150 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html.
