AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study information for the Uric Acid (AOX) device based on the provided 510(k) summary:

This device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) and the criteria and performance metrics are related to analytical performance, not clinical performance metrics typical of AI/ML devices for diagnostic imaging studies. Therefore, many of the requested fields for AI/ML studies are not applicable.

Note: The acceptance criteria for the new device are implicitly demonstrated by showing comparable or better performance relative to the predicate device across the various analytical performance characteristics. The document doesn't explicitly state "acceptance criteria" but rather presents a comparison to the predicate, implying that performance similar to or better than the predicate is considered acceptable.

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

  • Method Comparison (Linearity/Correlation): N = 105 human serum/plasma samples (range 0.3 to 12.6 mg/dL).
  • Precision: Not explicitly stated as "sample size" but rather "levels" tested (e.g., Level 1.2 mg/dL, 2.3 mg/dL, 4.4 mg/dL, 8.9 mg/dL) with corresponding SD and CV values. Typically, precision studies involve multiple replicates of control or patient samples.
  • Limitations (Interference): Specific concentrations of interfering substances (Intralipid, hemoglobin, conjugated bilirubin, unconjugated bilirubin) were tested. The number of samples for each interference test is not explicitly stated.
  • Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin or whether the data was retrospective or prospective. It refers to "human serum or plasma" samples.

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

  • Not applicable. This submission is for an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) device that quantifies a biomarker (uric acid) using chemical reactions on an instrument. The "ground truth" for the test set is established by comparative measurements against a legally marketed predicate device (Bayer ADVIA 2400) and/or reference methods, not by expert interpretation of images or clinical data.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • Not applicable. See explanation for #3. Adjudication methods like '2+1' or '3+1' are typically used in clinical studies where expert consensus is needed to establish a ground truth for diagnostic decisions (e.g., in medical imaging).

5. If a Multi-reader Multi-case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was Done

  • No. This is an IVD device for quantitative measurement, not a diagnostic imaging device that involves human readers interpreting results. Therefore, an MRMC study is not relevant to this submission.

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

  • Yes, effectively. The performance data presented (measuring range, precision, method comparison, limitations) are measurements of the device's analytical performance on its own (algorithm/reagent/instrument combination) without human qualitative interpretation being a variable. The device provides a quantitative measurement, and its accuracy and precision are assessed directly.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

  • Comparative Measurement to a Predicate Device and Traceability to a Primary Reference (NIST SRM 909b).
    • Method Comparison: The device's results were compared to the Bayer ADVIA 2400 Chemistry System, which serves as a widely accepted "ground truth" for method comparison in IVD submissions.
    • Traceability/Standardization: The value of Uric Acid (AOX) is stated to be assigned using NIST SRM 909b as a primary reference. The predicate device also establishes traceability to the CDC candidate reference method, which uses NIST reference materials. This indicates a strong chain of traceability to established analytical standards for ground truth.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

  • Not explicitly stated/applicable in the context of this traditional IVD. Traditional IVDs like this do not typically use "training sets" in the same way machine learning algorithms do. The development process involves optimizing the reagent formulation and instrument parameters, which is an iterative process, but not framed as "training" with a specific data set.

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

  • Not explicitly stated/applicable. As mentioned above, the concept of a "training set" and establishing ground truth for it is not directly transferable to the development of this type of IVD device. The development relies on principles of analytical chemistry, reagent formulation, and instrument engineering to achieve accurate and precise measurements traceable to established standards.

Dear Ms. 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).

{7}------------------------------------------------

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. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97), You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (240) 276-3150 or at its Internet address at http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.
