Intended Use
The FIRST RESPONSE® GOLD™ Digital Pregnancy Test is an in vitro diagnostic test device intended for use by the lay user for the early detection of pregnancy prior to the expected menses. The test is indicated for use from four days before the expected period, that is, five days before the missed period. The First Response Gold Digital Pregnancy Test is an in vitro diagnostic test device intended for the early detection of pregnancy by the lay user up to five (5) days sooner than the day of the missed period (four (4) days before the day of the expected period). The test detects human chorionic gonadotropin in urine.
Device Description
The FIRST RESPONSE® GOLD™ Digital Pregnancy Test is a human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) test system. It is a device intended for use by the lay user in the early detection of pregnancy by the detection of hCG, a placental hormone in urine. The device detects the presence of hCG in the urine of a pregnant woman by way of a series of immunochemical reactions on a chromatographic strip contained within a plastic housing, which is integral with the digital component that reads and displays the result of the immunochemical reactions on the Display Screen of the device in a manner similar to the predicate device. The subject 510(k) device and its analog counterpart First Response Early Result Pregnancy Test (K#030258) utilize the identical immunochemical principles for the assay of hCG: an immunochromatographic assay using colloidal gold as a direct label. The subject 510(k) device differs in that it provides a digital display of the test result for the consumer to read in place of the colored lines of the above referenced analog device. The digital version of the device incorporates into the stick housing electronic and optical components along with a microprocessor and specific algorithms capable of determining and correctly interpreting the reaction result and displaying a simple "YES+" or "-NO" on a Display Screen. The digital device is battery powered and will display the result for at least thirty minutes after completion of the reaction. All components are integrated and unitized into the stick housing.
More Information

K#030258

No
The device description mentions a microprocessor and specific algorithms for interpreting the reaction result, but there is no indication of AI or ML being used. The technology described is standard for digital diagnostic tests.

No.
The device is an in vitro diagnostic test for the detection of pregnancy, not a device used for treating or managing a medical condition.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "an in vitro diagnostic test device intended for use by the lay user for the early detection of pregnancy."

No

The device description clearly states that the device is a physical test system with a plastic housing, chromatographic strip, electronic and optical components, a microprocessor, and a battery. While it has a digital display and algorithms, it is not solely software.

Yes, based on the provided text, the FIRST RESPONSE® GOLD™ Digital Pregnancy Test is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Explicit Statement in Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section clearly states: "The FIRST RESPONSE® GOLD™ Digital Pregnancy Test is an in vitro diagnostic test device intended for use by the lay user for the early detection of pregnancy prior to the expected menses."
  • Explicit Statement in Device Description: The "Device Description" section also states: "The First Response Gold Digital Pregnancy Test is an in vitro diagnostic test device intended for the early detection of pregnancy by the lay user..."
  • Nature of the Test: The device performs a test on a biological sample (urine) to detect a specific analyte (human chorionic gonadotropin - hCG) to diagnose a condition (pregnancy). This is the fundamental definition of an in vitro diagnostic test.

The text repeatedly and explicitly identifies the device as an in vitro diagnostic test.
