Study Information

The provided document describes a Special 510(k): Device Modification submission for the Tina-Quant C-Reactive Protein Gen 3 assay. The core of the "study" is a comparison of the modified device's performance characteristics against its predicate device (Tina-Quant C-Reactive Protein (Latex), K032336), to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

  1. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • Test Set Sample Size: The document does not explicitly state the specific number of samples used for each test (e.g., precision, interference, method comparison). For the "Method Comparison," it refers to a "Scatter plot showing correlation between two methods for measuring C-Reactive Protein," which implies a collection of patient or control samples were run on both methods. However, the exact count is not given.
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated. The studies were conducted by Roche Diagnostics, suggesting internal studies. The country of origin of the data is not mentioned, nor is whether the data was retrospective or prospective.
  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

    • This is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) device for quantitative determination of CRP. For such devices, "ground truth" is typically established by reference methods or highly accurate analytical techniques, not by expert consensus on interpretations like with imaging. The document traces the device's standardization to CRM 470, which is a certified reference material for proteins. There is no mention of experts establishing a ground truth in the context of clinical interpretation, as this device provides a quantitative measurement.
  3. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

    • Not applicable. This is an IVD device for quantitative measurement. Adjudication methods like "2+1" typically apply to diagnostic tasks involving human interpretation or subjective assessments, where disagreements between experts need to be resolved.
  4. 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:

    • No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This device is an automated in vitro diagnostic assay, not a device that assists human readers (like AI for image analysis). Therefore, comparisons of human reader performance with or without AI assistance are not relevant to this submission.
  5. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    • Yes, effectively, this is a standalone device performance evaluation. The device is an automated clinical chemistry analyzer that quantitatively measures CRP. The performance metrics reported (precision, analytical sensitivity, interference, method comparison) are intrinsic to the device's analytical function without direct human intervention in the result generation process, beyond sample loading and general operation.
  6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):

    • Reference material standardization. The device claims traceability to CRM 470 for standardization. This implies that the "ground truth" for the quantitative CRP measurements is established against this internationally recognized reference material, rather than clinical outcomes, pathology, or expert consensus on a diagnostic interpretation.
  7. The sample size for the training set:

    • Not applicable. This document is for a device modification of an in vitro diagnostic assay, not an AI/ML algorithm. Therefore, there isn't a "training set" in the sense of data used to train a machine learning model. The assay's parameters would have been developed and optimized through laboratory experiments, but the concept of a "training set" as commonly understood in AI/ML is not directly relevant here.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • Not applicable. As explained above, there is no "training set" for an AI/ML algorithm. For the initial development and optimization of the assay reagents and methods, ground truth for measuring CRP would typically be established using highly characterized samples with known CRP concentrations (e.g., purified CRP, reference materials like CRM 470, or validated high-accuracy laboratory methods).
