Intended Use
The PBNP method is an in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative measurement of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in human serum and plasma on the Dimension Vista® System. In individuals suspected of having congestive heart failure (CHF), measurements of NT-proBNP are used as an aid in the diagnosis and assessment of severity. The test is further indicated for the risk stratification of patients with acute coronary syndrome and heart failure. The PBNP CAL is an in vitro diagnostic product for the calibration of the N-Terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide (PBNP) method for the Dimension Vista® System.
Device Description
The PBNP method is a one-step sandwich chemiluminescent immunoassay based on LOCI® technology. LOCI® reagents include two synthetic bead reagents and a biotinylated monoclonal antibody fragment which recognize an epitope located in the N-terminal part of proBNP. The first bead reagent (Sensibeads) is coated with streptavidin and contains photosensitive dye. The second bead reagent (Chemibeads) is coated with a second antibody specific for a second independent epitope on NT-proBNP and contains chemiluminescent dye. Sample is incubated with Chemibeads and biotinylated antibody to form a particle/NT-proBNP/biotiny|ated antibody sandwich. Sensibeads then are added and bind to the biotin to form a bead-aggregated immunocomplex. Illumination of the complex by light at 680 nm generates singlet oxygen from Sensibeads, which diffuses to the Chemibeads and triggers a chemiluminescent reaction. The resulting chemiluminescent signal is measured at 612 nm and is directly proportional to the concentration of NT-proBNP in the sample. The PBNP Calibrator is a frozen liquid product containing synthetic human Nterminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide in bovine albumin matrix with stabilizers and preservative. The kit consists of ten vials, two vials per level (A, B, C, D, and E), 1.0 mL per vial.

No
The device description details a standard immunoassay based on chemiluminescent technology. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any computational algorithms beyond standard signal processing for quantitative measurement.

No.
The device is an in vitro diagnostic assay used to measure NT-proBNP levels, which aid in the diagnosis and assessment of severity for congestive heart failure. It does not provide therapy.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that "The PBNP method is an in vitro diagnostic assay" and that measurements are "used as an aid in the diagnosis and assessment of severity" for congestive heart failure.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components (reagents, beads, antibodies, calibrator vials) and a chemical reaction process, indicating it is an in vitro diagnostic assay with hardware components, not a software-only device.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The description explicitly states "The PBNP method is an in vitro diagnostic assay..." and "The PBNP CAL is an in vitro diagnostic product...". It also describes the use of the test to measure NT-proBNP in human serum and plasma to aid in the diagnosis and assessment of severity of congestive heart failure, and for risk stratification in patients with acute coronary syndrome and heart failure. These are all typical applications of in vitro diagnostics.
  • Device Description: The description details a laboratory-based assay (chemiluminescent immunoassay) that analyzes biological samples (serum and plasma) outside of the body. This is the core characteristic of an in vitro diagnostic device.
  • Predicate Device(s): The listed predicate devices are also described as "Flex® reagent cartridge" and "Calibrator," which are components of in vitro diagnostic systems.

The information provided clearly indicates that this device is intended to be used in a laboratory setting to analyze biological samples for diagnostic purposes, which aligns with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Carrio:

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).

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.
