The description focuses on standard real-time PCR technology, hardware components (thermal cycler, fluorimeter, CCD camera), and basic data analysis software. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts in the provided text.
No
The device is a diagnostic tool used to measure nucleic acid signals for quantitative readouts, not for treating any condition or disease.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the device is a "real-time nucleic acid amplification and detection system that measures nucleic acid signals from reverse transcribed RNA and converts them to comparative quantitative readouts". Detecting and measuring nucleic acid signals to provide quantitative readouts for analysis aligns with the function of a diagnostic device. While it doesn't explicitly state "diagnosis," the function of measuring and quantifying biological signals for analysis is a key component of diagnostic processes in a laboratory setting.
No
The device description clearly states that the device is an "instrument" that integrates a thermal cycler, a fluorimeter, and application-specific software. It describes hardware components like a thermal block, optics, filters, and a CCD camera. While software is a component, it is not the sole component of the medical device.
Based on the provided information, yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the instrument is a "real-time nucleic acid amplification and detection system that measures nucleic acid signals from reverse transcribed RNA and converts them to comparative quantitative readouts using fluorescent detection of dual-labeled hydrolysis probes." This describes a process performed in vitro (outside the body) on biological samples to obtain diagnostic information.
- Device Description: The description details how the instrument processes samples (tube strips or plates), performs thermal cycling and fluorescent detection, and uses software for data collection and analysis. These are all characteristic components of an IVD system used for analyzing biological samples.
- User: The intended user is "technologists trained in laboratory techniques, procedures and on use of the analyzer," which aligns with the typical users of IVD devices in a laboratory setting.
- Regulatory Compliance: The mention of "Changes to the Dx software are subject to change control in accordance with 21 CFR Part 820.40" indicates that the device is being developed and maintained under regulations applicable to medical devices, including IVDs, in the United States.
While the document doesn't explicitly use the term "In Vitro Diagnostic" in the title or a dedicated section, the description of its function, intended use, and regulatory considerations clearly place it within the definition of an IVD. It is designed to analyze biological samples in vitro to provide information that can be used for diagnostic purposes.

Device Description
The AB 7500 Fast Dx RT-PCR instrument integrates a thermal cycler, a fluorimeter and application specific software. The instrument houses the thermal cycler and the fluorimeter, while the application software is run on a PC that is attached to the instrument. Samples are placed in a tube strip or 96-well low-head space plate that is moved to a Peltier-based thermal block and positioned relative to the optics using a tray loading mechanism. Excitation for all samples is provided by a halogen tungsten white source that passes through 5 switchable excitation filters prior to reaching the sample. Fluorescence emission is then detected through 5 color emissions filter wheel to a charge coupled device (CCD) camera. The instrument is designed to complete quantitative RT-PCR runs in about 40 minutes. The Sequence Detection Software (SDS) version 1.4 for the 7500 Fast Dx Instrument is used for instrument control, data collection and data analysis. The software can measure cycle-by-cycle real-time signals from the sample. The software provides a variety of tools to help the user analyze the data extracted from the samples. The software also provides lamp-life monitoring and other instrument maintenance information. The software runs as an application on Windows XP platform.

Changes to the Dx software are subject to change control in accordance with 21 CFR Part 820.40.
§ 862.2570 Instrumentation for clinical multiplex test systems.
(a)
Identification. Instrumentation for clinical multiplex test systems is a device intended to measure and sort multiple signals generated by an assay from a clinical sample. This instrumentation is used with a specific assay to measure multiple similar analytes that establish a single indicator to aid in diagnosis. Such instrumentation may be compatible with more than one specific assay. The device includes a signal reader unit, and may also integrate reagent handling, hybridization, washing, dedicated instrument control, and other hardware components, as well as raw data storage mechanisms, data acquisition software, and software to process detected signals.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9. The special control is FDA's guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Instrumentation for Clinical Multiplex Test Systems.” See § 862.1(d) for the availability of this guidance document.
