The provided text describes the Thermo Fisher Scientific Calcium Test System (Calcium, sCal, Nortrol, Abtrol) and its substantial equivalence to a predicate device, the Bayer ADVIA Calcium assay. The information largely focuses on comparing performance metrics between the new device and the predicate device.
Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them, based on the provided text, structured according to your requested points:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
-
Method Comparison (Serum):
- Sample Size: N = 112
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but it's a comparison to the Bayer ADVIA 2400. Given the submission is from Thermo Fisher Scientific Oy in Finland, and the clinical chemistry context, it's highly likely to be prospective clinical samples, but the country of origin is not specified. It is an in vitro diagnostic device, so the samples used for this study would be human serum/plasma.
-
Precision Studies:
- Sample Size: Not explicitly stated as "N" for the precision studies, but rather by "levels" (e.g., Level 4.0 mg/dL). Typically, precision studies involve running a sample multiple times within a run and across multiple runs. The 'SD' and 'CV(%)' values are calculated from these repeated measurements. The exact number of replicates is not provided.
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated. Likely laboratory-prepared control samples or spiked patient samples.
-
Limitations (Interference):
- Sample Size: Not explicitly stated. Interference studies typically involve spiking samples with known interferents at various concentrations.
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications
For this type of in vitro diagnostic device (a chemical assay), the "ground truth" is established through analytical reference methods or highly accurate laboratory instruments, not by human experts in the way image analysis or clinical diagnosis might be.
- Method Comparison: The new device was compared to the predicate device (Bayer ADVIA 2400). The predicate device itself would have been validated against a reference method. The text also mentions the Bayer ADVIA Calcium assay's traceability to a NIST atomic absorption reference method.
- Traceability: The new device's value has been assigned by using NIST SRM 909b as a primary reference. This implies that NIST standards and reference methods are the "ground truth" for calibrating and validating the assay.
Therefore, there were no human "experts" establishing ground truth in the sense of clinical reviewers for this device. The ground truth relies on established analytical standards and reference measurement procedures.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable. As this is an in vitro diagnostic assay, adjudication methods such as 2+1 or 3+1 (often used in clinical image interpretation) are not relevant. The "adjudication" is inherent in the analytical process, where results are compared against reference methods or statistically analyzed for agreement.
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 not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool or an imaging device requiring human interpretation. It is a chemical reagent and calibrator system for measuring calcium concentration. Therefore, MRMC studies and "human readers improving with AI" are not relevant to this submission.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
Yes, in a sense, the entire performance evaluation presented is "standalone" for the device itself. The studies on precision, measuring range, and interference demonstrate the performance of the Calcium test system (reagents, calibrators, and the T60 instrument) independently. The method comparison study also assesses the direct output of the new device relative to the predicate without human intervention in result generation.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth used for establishing the performance and enabling substantial equivalence determination includes:
- NIST Standards: NIST SRM 909b for primary reference, and the predicate's traceability to a NIST atomic absorption reference method. (This is a form of highly certified reference measurement procedure/material).
- Predicate Device Output: The Bayer ADVIA 2400 Chemistry System's Calcium assay served as the comparative "ground truth" for the method comparison study. The predicate itself would have been validated against a reference standard.
- Laboratory Control Materials/Spiked Samples: Likely used for precision and interference studies.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. This is not a machine learning or AI-based device that requires a "training set" in the computational sense. It is a chemical reagent-based assay. Its performance is characterized through traditional analytical validation, not by training an algorithm on a dataset.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Not applicable, as there is no "training set" for this chemical assay device.

Dear Päivi Sormunen:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820).
{6}------------------------------------------------
Page 2 -
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific information about the application of labeling requirements to your device, or questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of In Vitro Diagnostic Device Evaluation and Safety at (240) 276-0490.
