More Information

No
The document describes a traditional in vitro diagnostic device and laboratory testing process, with no mention of AI or ML. The "proprietary algorithm" mentioned likely refers to a standard calculation or data processing method, not an AI/ML model.

No.
The device is described as an "in vitro, quantitative determination" tool, which means it measures substances in a sample outside the body for diagnostic purposes, not for direct treatment or therapy.

Yes.

The device is intended for the "in vitro, quantitative determination of Total Cholesterol, HDL-Cholesterol, Triglycerides and calculated LDL-Cholesterol" which are "used in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders involving excess cholesterol in the blood and lipid and lipoprotein metabolism disorders." This explicit mention of "diagnosis and treatment" aligns it with the definition of a diagnostic device.

No

The device is a kit that includes physical components for sample collection and relies on laboratory analysis using a chemical analyzer and its associated software, not a standalone software application.

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 accessa Cholesterol Panel is intended for "in vitro, quantitative determination of Total Cholesterol, HDL-Cholesterol, Triglycerides and calculated LDL-Cholesterol in dried micro-serum samples". This clearly indicates that the device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body (dried micro-serum samples) for the purpose of providing information for the diagnosis and treatment of disorders.
  • Device Description: The description details a system that includes a collection kit for obtaining a biological sample (fingerstick blood) and subsequent laboratory analysis of that sample. This aligns with the definition of an IVD, which often involves both sample collection and analysis components.
  • Regulatory Information: The description mentions that the Home Access Micro Serum Specimen (MSS) Collection Kit is a "Class I Medical Device listed with the FDA effective February 19, 2003, and manufactured under the Quality System Regulations". While the collection kit itself is a medical device, its intended use is specifically to facilitate in vitro diagnostic laboratory testing. The overall "accessa Cholesterol Panel" is presented as a system for performing these diagnostic tests.
  • Clinical Laboratory Testing: The process described involves sending the collected sample to a certified clinical laboratory for analysis using FDA-cleared reagents and analysis systems. This is a core characteristic of many IVD workflows.

The combination of the intended use for quantitative determination of analytes in a human specimen for diagnostic purposes, the description of the components used for sample collection and analysis, and the regulatory context all strongly indicate that this device is an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol

The accessa Cholesterol Panel was validated using data from bench studies and from the formal clinical study conducted independently by LMARC Research Center in Louisville, KY between March 2006 and May 2006. The formal clinical study included self-collected capillary samples and professionally collected capillary samples using the blood collection/transportation cassette. Additionally, venipuncture samples were collected from each study subject to allow for comparison of serum lipid results with those obtained from capillary samples were expressshipped to the clinical laboratory. Each self-collected and each professionally-collected capillary sample was tested using the proprietary algorithm and results were compared to veniouncture sample results.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Study type: Clinical trials and bench studies.
Key results: The results of clinical trials demonstrated that self-collected capillary samples, tested using the HAHC proprietary testing algorithm, are substantially equivalent to venous (serum) results for Total Cholesterol, HDL-Cholesterol, Triglycerides and calculated LDL-Cholesterol. Analysis of data from both clinical and non-clinical testing shows that the accessa Cholesterol Panel is as safe and effective as the predicate device(s) and has no new indications for use.

Panel is not intended for use on neonates. LDL-Cholesterol cannot be determined where the triglycerides value is greater than 400 mg/dL.

Comparison to Predicate Devices:

The accessa Cholesterol Panel is substantially equivalent to the Safe At Home Cholesterol Profile K012221 manufactured by BIOSAFE Laboratories, Inc, as well as the laboratory methods listed below. Both the accessa Cholesterol Panel and the Safe At Home Cholesterol Profile kits provide the patient a method to collect a sample at home, mail it to a clinical laboratory, and later receive a report showing Total Cholesterol, HDL, Triglycerides, and Calculated LDL-Cholesterol. The only significant difference is the accessa Cholesterol Panel kit separates the serum from the blood whereas the Safe At Home kit collects whole blood.

The accessa Cholesterol Panel has technological characteristics that are substantially equivalent to that of the predicate devices listed above. The accessa Cholesterol Panel provides components that permit collection, storage, and transportation of a dried serum blood sample to a certified clinical laboratory for analysis using FDA-Cleared or Exempt laboratory reagent and analysis systems. All predicate and current kits are intended for the in vitro diagnostic laboratory determination of lipid profile analytes. The laboratory analyses used in conjunction with the accessa Cholesterol Panel utilize these test methods:

Total Cholesterol: Amresco Cholesterol Reagent Assay K891922 HDL Cholesterol: Wako L-Type HDL-C Reagent Assay K801834 Triglycerides: Roche Triglycerides K801298

Results of clinical trials show that self-collected capillary samples onto the accessa Blood Collection Cassette provide results that are substantially equivalent to venous (serum) results for Total Cholesterol, HDL-Cholesterol and Triglycerides when analyzed using Home Access Health Laboratories modified analytical methods.

Performance Studies:

The accessa Cholesterol Panel was validated using data from bench studies and from the formal clinical study conducted independently by LMARC Research Center in Louisville, KY between March 2006 and May 2006. The formal clinical study included self-collected capillary samples and professionally collected capillary samples using the blood collection/transportation cassette. Additionally, venipuncture samples were collected from each study subject to allow for comparison of serum lipid results with those obtained from capillary samples were expressshipped to the clinical laboratory. Each self-collected and each professionally-collected capillary sample was tested using the proprietary algorithm and results were compared to veniouncture sample results.
