The description focuses on automated photometric analysis and standard chemical reaction measurements, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data processing or interpretation.
No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) device used for quantitative determination of cholesterol and triglycerides in whole blood, which helps in predicting and assessing CHD/CVD risk. It is not designed to directly treat or prevent a disease, but rather to provide diagnostic information.
Yes
The device quantitatively measures cholesterol and triglyceride levels in whole blood, which are used in the prediction and assessment of cardiovascular disease risk and severity. This indicates its role in providing information for diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical instrument (analyzer) with automated components, liquid reagents, and a measurement disk, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states the quantitative determination of analytes (total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides) in whole blood. This is a classic definition of an in vitro diagnostic test, as it involves analyzing a biological sample outside of the body to provide information about a patient's health.
- Device Description: The description details a system that performs chemical reactions on a biological sample (plasma separated from whole blood) using reagents to measure analytes. This process is characteristic of an IVD.
- Clinical Use: The device is intended for clinical use in both central laboratories and point-of-care sites, further indicating its role in diagnosing or monitoring health conditions.
- Performance Studies: The document describes performance studies evaluating imprecision, linearity, interfering substances, and method comparison to FDA cleared comparison methods. These are standard evaluations for IVD devices to demonstrate their accuracy and reliability for clinical use.
- Predicate Devices: The mention of predicate devices (CHOLESTECH LDX) which are known IVD devices, strongly suggests that the APOLOWAKO system is also an IVD.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the APOLOWAKO T-CHO, HDL-C, TG, and the APOLOWAKO Analyzer system are clearly intended and function as In Vitro Diagnostic devices.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The APOLOWAKO T-CHO is for the quantitative determination on the APOLOWAKO analyzer of total cholesterol in whole blood. The APOLOWAKO HDL-C is for the quantitative determination on the APOLOWAKO analyzer of HDL cholesterol in whole blood. The APOLOWAKO TG is for the quantitative determination on the APOLOWAKO analyzer of triglycerides in whole blood. In conjunction with the above values, the APOLOWAKO analyzer also calculates LDL cholesterol for triglyceride values up to 400 mg/dL and T-CHO/HDL-C ratio.
APOLOWAKO Analyzer is a discrete photometric chemistry analyzer for clinical use in both central laboratories and in point of care sites. The device is intended to duplicate manual analytical procedures by automatically performing various steps such as pipetting, mixing and measuring color intensity. This device is intended for use in conjunction with certain materials to measure a variety of analytes of clinical interest in whole blood samples.
The measurements of total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and LDL cholesterol (by calculation for triglyceride values up to 400 mg/dL) when used in conjunction with other biochemical markers and coronary risk factors, is useful in the prediction of CHD/CVD risk and the assessment of CHD/CVD severity.

Device Description
The APOLOWAKO analyzer is a fully-integrated POC test system that can perform up to six analytical tests per individual sample. The analyzer automatically separates plasma from whole blood for testing. Once the plasma has been separated, it is transferred to a cell on a measurement disk where the chemical reactions take place. The analyzer uses liquid reagents which are packaged into kits. Each kit contains 2 reagent units. Each unit is composed of two enzyme color reagents and a lyophilized calibrator. All of the reagents have a reagent information tag applied to the back of each bottle which controls the reagent parameters and conditions such as, calibration, reagent quantity, shelf-life, and lot number. The instrument contains an automated liquid dispenser, temperature controlled reagent carrousel, analysis compartment, and sample holder. The instrument is designed to automatically and constantly monitor the reagents, dispensing system, measurement disk, and measurement process to ensure that no erroneous results are shown. The APOLOWAKO's lipid panel will include, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol (by calculation), and triglycerides in tubed venous whole blood. The test system is designed for professional use and consists of a small table top instrument (31 cm wide x 47.5 cm high x 56 cm deep, weight: 25 kg).

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Non-clinical Data: Evaluations were performed for within-day imprecision, between-day imprecision, linearity, and interfering substances.
Triglyceride: Within-day imprecision (low- 45 mg/dL, intermediate- 139 mg/dL, and high- 1209 mg/dL) ranged from 0.5 % CV to 2.9 % CV. Between-day imprecision (in duplicate over 10 days) ranged 0.9 % CV to 1.8 % CV. Results from linearity studies demonstrated that the triglyceride is linear throughout the reportable range. Interference testing showed triglyceride assay is not affected by high levels of hemoglobin, bilirubin (conjugated or unconjugated) or free glycerol.
Total Cholesterol: Within-day imprecision (low- 122 mg/dL, intermediate- 187 mg/dL, and high- 764 mg/dL) ranged from 0.5 % CV to 1.2 % CV. Between-day imprecision (in duplicate over 10 days) ranged 0.6 % CV to 1.7 % CV. Results from linearity studies demonstrated that the total cholesterol is linear throughout the reportable range. Interference testing showed that the total cholesterol is not affected by high levels of hemoglobin, bilirubin (conjugated or unconjugated), triglycerides, ascorbic acid, EDAT-2Na, or heparin sodium.
HDL-C: Within-day imprecision (low-30.8 mg/dL, intermediate- 51.1 mg/dL, and high- 95.2 mg/dL) ranged from 0.5 % CV to 1.6 % CV. Between assay imprecision (in duplicate over 10 days) ranged 0.5 % CV to 1.6 % CV. Results from linearity studies demonstrated that the HDL-C assay is linear throughout the reportable range. Interference testing showed that the HDL-C is not affected by high levels of hemoglobin, bilirubin (conjugated or unconjugated), triglycerides, ascorbic acid, EDAT-2Na, or heparin sodium.
Clinical Data: The method comparison study shows substantial equivalence to FDA cleared comparison methods for total cholesterol, triglycerides and HDL-cholesterol. For each analyte, 388 (384 for HDL-cholesterol; 4 samples out of the detectable range) broadly distributed samples showed statistically significant correlation with the reference method with slopes approaching 1.0 and y-intercepts approaching zero. APOLOWAKO results were collected under rigorous conditions sufficient to meet the requirements for CLIA Waiver. The results show correlation coefficients of 0.945 or better for each assay.
