BD Tritest CD3 FITC/CD4 PE/CD45 PerCP is a three-color direct immunofluorescence reagent for identifying and enumerating percentage of mature human T lymphocytes (CD3+) and T-helper/inducer (CD3+CD4+) cells in erythrocyte-lysed whole blood (LWB).

Device Description

The BD TriTEST™ CD3FITC/CD4PE/CD45 PerCP reagent is a three-color, direct immunofluorescence reagent for identifying and enumerating percentages of T lymphocytes (CD3+) and T-helper/inducer (CD3+CD4+) cells in erythrocyte-lysed whole blood (LWB). If used with Becton Dickinson flow cytometers, the product can be used with MultiSET™ software for analysis as an accessory, or customers may perform analysis using CELLQuest™ , CELLQuest Pro "" or LYSYS™ II software. The reagent vials and counting bead vials are packaged separately. Each vial of this reagent yields 50 tests. Each package of counting bead tubes yields 50 tests.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the BD™ TriTEST CD3/CD4/CD45 reagent. The submission is not for a new device but for a modification to an existing, legally marketed device (BD™ TriTEST CD3/CD4/CD45, K946055/S2). The modification only seeks to extend the sample stability claim for EDTA whole blood from 48 to 72 hours.

Therefore, the provided document does not contain the detailed information required to fully answer all aspects of your request, particularly regarding specific performance metrics, sample sizes for test and training sets, expert qualifications, or ground truth establishment in the way you might expect for a de novo device submission or a study evaluating a complex algorithm.

However, based on the information provided, here's what can be inferred and stated:


Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (Extended Sample Stability Claim)

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

Since the submission is for an extended stability claim, the acceptance criteria would revolve around demonstrating that the device maintains its performance (identifying and enumerating specific cell populations) after 72 hours with EDTA-treated samples, compared to its established performance at 48 hours or earlier time points. The document states "Performance data from validation testing supports equivalency." This implies that the accepted performance for the enumeration of T lymphocytes (CD3+) and T-helper/inducer (CD3+CD4+) cells at 72 hours is equivalent to, or within acceptable limits of, the established performance at shorter stability times.

Acceptance Criteria CategorySpecific Acceptance Criteria (Inferred)Reported Device Performance (Inferred)
Sample StabilityMaintain equivalent enumeration of CD3+ and CD3+CD4+ cells in EDTA whole blood at 72 hours compared to 48 hours or earlier time points."Performance data from validation testing supports equivalency." This suggests the device met the criteria.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):

  • Sample Size: Not specified in the provided text.
  • Data Provenance: Not specified in the provided text.
  • Retrospective or Prospective: Not specified in the provided text.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience):

This information is not applicable in the context of this 510(k) summary. The device is a reagent for flow cytometry, and the "ground truth" for enumerated cell populations is typically established by the inherent physical properties and staining characteristics detected by the flow cytometer itself, rather than by expert consensus on images or pathology. The validation would involve assessing the reagent's ability to consistently and accurately identify markers over time.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

Not applicable. This type of adjudication is typically used for image-based diagnostics where human interpretation is involved.

5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

Not applicable. This is a reagent, not an AI software assisting human readers.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only, without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

The device is a reagent to be used with flow cytometers and software (MultiSET™, CELLQuest™, CELLQuest Pro™ or LYSYS™ II software). The "standalone" performance here refers to the reagent's ability to consistently label cells correctly over time. The document implicitly confirms this standalone performance was evaluated to support the extended stability claim.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):

The "ground truth" for this type of device (flow cytometry reagent for cell enumeration) would be established by the inherent, reproducible measurement of cell populations by flow cytometry, typically validated against established methods or control materials. It's not based on expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data in the traditional sense for diagnostic imaging or disease staging. The validation would verify that the reagent accurately binds to specific cell markers, leading to consistent enumeration results.

8. The sample size for the training set:

Not specified. For a reagent validation, there isn't a "training set" in the machine learning sense. The "training" essentially occurs during the reagent's development and optimization, with verification against known cell populations.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

Not applicable in the machine learning sense. The ground truth for reagent development and validation would involve biochemical characterization of the reagent and its binding specificity, as well as testing against characterized cell lines or human blood samples with known cell population distributions using established flow cytometry protocols.
