Acceptance Criteria (Implicit Summary): The acceptance criteria are based on demonstrating substantial equivalence between the performance of the cobas c 111 analyzer and its reagents for the new point-of-care intended use and its established professional use, primarily by showing comparable precision, analytical sensitivity, measuring range, interference profiles, and method comparison results against a predicate device (Integra 400). The word "Same" is frequently used, indicating that the performance metrics achieved for the professional use are expected to be maintained for the point-of-care use. Significant deviations would require further justification or modification.


2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The "test set" in this context refers to the samples used to evaluate the device's performance for the new point-of-care intended use. These samples are detailed in the "Method Comparison" section:

  • Test Set Sample Sizes:
    • AST: n = 333 (for point-of-care use)
    • Glucose: n = 333 (for point-of-care use)
    • CRP: n = 326 (for point-of-care use)
    • ISE-Cl: n = 280 (for point-of-care use)
    • ISE-K: n = 280 (for point-of-care use)
    • ISE-Na: n = 280 (for point-of-care use)
  • Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin for the data or whether the data was retrospective or prospective. However, the study focuses on in-vitro diagnostic performance using human serum, plasma, and urine samples. The nature of performance studies for in-vitro diagnostics typically involves prospective collection of samples or use of archived, de-identified human biological samples that cover the relevant measuring ranges.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

For in-vitro diagnostic devices like the cobas c 111 analyzer, "ground truth" and "experts" are typically interpreted differently than in imaging or AI-driven diagnostic studies.

  • Ground Truth: The ground truth for this device is established by a reference method or a predicate device with a known and established measurement accuracy. In this case, the Integra 400 system is used as the comparative method. The values obtained from the Integra 400 are considered the reference or "ground truth" for comparison.
  • Experts: The study design does not involve human experts establishing a diagnostic "ground truth" through interpretation. Instead, the "expertise" lies in the established analytical performance characteristics, calibration, and standardization of the Integra 400 and the rigorous laboratory practices followed during the study.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Adjudication methods (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) are typically relevant for studies where human readers or experts are interpreting results and consensus is needed to establish ground truth or resolve discrepancies, particularly in imaging or pathology.

  • No Adjudication Method: For this type of in-vitro diagnostic device performance study, there is no mention or indication of an adjudication method. The comparison is quantitative between the device under test (cobas c 111) and the predicate device (Integra 400), based on measured numerical values. Statistical methods (e.g., Passing-Bablok regression, correlation coefficients) are used to analyze the agreement between the two methods, not an adjudication process.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done

No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done.

MRMC studies are primarily used in diagnostic imaging or other fields where multiple human readers interpret cases, and the study aims to assess how an AI system might affect their performance (e.g., improving accuracy, reducing reading time). This submission is for an in-vitro diagnostic device, which outputs quantitative measurements, and its performance is evaluated through analytical correlation and precision, not human interpretation.


6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Was Done

Yes, a standalone performance evaluation was done.

The data presented directly evaluates the performance of the cobas c 111 analyzer (an automated system performing the "algorithm" of chemical analysis) and its reagents without direct human intervention in the measurement process itself. The "human-in-the-loop" here refers to the operator initiating the test and interpreting the result, but the analytical performance data (precision, method comparison) reflects the device's inherent capability. The expansion to "point-of-care" suggests a different type of operator, but the core analytical engine operates independently for measurement.


7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The type of ground truth used is based on comparison to a legally marketed predicate device (Integra 400) and established reference methods/standards.

  • For method comparison, the results from the Integra 400 are considered the reference.
  • For traceability and standardization, internationally recognized standards and methods are used (e.g., IFCC formulation for AST, ID/MS for Glucose, IRMM - BCR470/CRM470 for CRP, gravimetrically prepared primary calibrators for ISE). These constitute the ultimate "ground truth" for the accuracy of measurements.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not specify a training set sample size.

This is because the cobas c 111 is a clinical chemistry analyzer, not a machine learning or AI algorithm in the contemporary sense that learns from a training dataset. The "training" of such a device involves:

  • Engineering design and optimization
  • Method development for specific reagents
  • Calibration using master calibrators.

The performance characteristics (measuring range, sensitivity, precision, interference) are established through analytical validation studies, not by training a computational model on a large dataset. The reagents themselves have defined formulations and reaction kinetics.


9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

As mentioned above, the concept of a "training set" and associated "ground truth" in the machine learning sense does not apply directly to this in-vitro diagnostic analyzer.

Instead, the analytical "ground truth" is established through:

  • International standards and reference materials: Such as IFCC, ID/MS, and IRMM standards mentioned in the "Traceability/Standardization" section. These provide the accurate values for calibration and control materials.
  • Validated reference methods: The Integra 400 itself is a validated instrument used as a comparison method, implying its results are considered accurate and reliable.

The device is calibrated using these standards and validated against reference instruments to ensure its measurements are accurate and consistent.
