Intended Use
The Audit™ MicroCV™ Immunoassay Linearity Set consists of five levels in Human and Bovine serum albumin matrix. Each level contains the following analytes: Cortisol, Digoxin, Estradiol, Ferritin, Folate, Free T4, FSH, hCG, LH, Progesterone, Prolactin, Testosterone, Total PSA, Total T3, Total T4, TSH, and Vitamin B12. The five levels demonstrate a linear relationship to each other for their respective analytes, reagents, and instruments. This product may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys and to perform CLIA directed calibration verification for these same analytes with similar reagents on similar instrumentation in accordance with current CLIA-88 guidelines and regulations. In addition, Level A – E of this product may be used as unassayed quality control material for these analytes or as an assayed quality control material for the analyzer systems specified in the package insert. It is not intended to be used as an assayed quality control material for any other analyzer systems.

No
The device description and intended use focus on a linearity set for immunoassay calibration verification and quality control, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data analysis, interpretation, or decision-making.

No
This device is an immunoassay linearity set used for proficiency testing, calibration verification, and quality control of laboratory instruments; it is not intended for the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease.

No

This device is a linearity set and quality control material used for proficiency testing, calibration verification, and quality control of laboratory instruments measuring specific analytes, not for diagnosing patient conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "Human and Bovine serum albumin based, lyophilized, five level set of QC material," indicating it is a physical product (reagents/controls) and not software.

Based on the provided text, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the product is used for "proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys and to perform CLIA directed calibration verification for these same analytes with similar reagents on similar instrumentation". It also mentions use as "unassayed quality control material" and "assayed quality control material for the analyzer systems specified". These are all activities performed in vitro (outside the body) to assess the performance of diagnostic tests and instruments.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces the intended use by stating it's a "QC material" used for "proficiency testing" and "calibration verification".
  • Analytes: The product contains analytes like Cortisol, Digoxin, Estradiol, Ferritin, Folate, etc., which are commonly measured in clinical laboratories using in vitro diagnostic tests.
  • Matrix: The product is in a "Human and Bovine serum albumin matrix", which is a common matrix for in vitro diagnostic controls and calibrators.
  • Predicate Device: The listed predicate device (K042318 Audit™ MicroCV™ General Chemistry Linearity Set) is also a linearity set, which are typically classified as IVDs.

The core function of this device is to evaluate the performance and accuracy of other in vitro diagnostic tests and instruments. This aligns directly with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 862.1660 Quality control material (assayed and unassayed).

(a)
Identification. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) for clinical chemistry is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to estimate test precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations that may arise from reagent or analytical instrument variation. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys. This generic type of device includes controls (assayed and unassayed) for blood gases, electrolytes, enzymes, multianalytes (all kinds), single (specified) analytes, or urinalysis controls.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). Except when intended for use in donor screening tests, quality control materials (assayed and unassayed) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.
