Intended Use
Each VALIDATE® THY Calibration Verification / Linearity Test Set consists of two sets of bottles, a THY Set and a FT4 Set. The THY set consists of five (5) levels of the following four analytes: triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), human thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), and cortisol, and the FT4 set consists of five (5) levels containing Free T4. VALIDATE® THY Calibration / Linearity Test Set solutions are intended for in vitro diagnostic use in the quantitative determination of linearity, calibration and verification of reportable range in automated, semi automated, and manual chemistry systems.
Device Description
Quality control material (assayed and un-assayed) VALIDATE®THY Calibration Verification Test Sets are human serum based calibration verification / linearity materials containing multiple levels used to establish the relationship between theoretical operation and actual performance of the included analytes. Each test set consists of one bottle each of Levels 1 through 5. One bottle of Base Matrix is also included. There exists a linear relationship among Levels 1 through 5.

No
The document describes a calibration verification/linearity test set for in vitro diagnostic use, which is a quality control material. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) quality control material used for verifying linearity and calibration of chemistry systems, not for directly treating a patient's condition.

No

This device is a calibration verification/linearity test set used for validating the performance of diagnostic chemistry systems, not for directly diagnosing medical conditions in patients. It supports diagnostic devices but is not one itself.

No

The device is a calibration verification/linearity test set consisting of physical bottles of solutions (human serum based materials) intended for in vitro diagnostic use. It is a physical product, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states: "VALIDATE® THY Calibration / Linearity Test Set solutions are intended for in vitro diagnostic use..."
  • Device Description: The "Device Description" section describes it as "Quality control material (assayed and un-assayed)". Quality control materials used in laboratory testing are a type of IVD.
  • Intended User / Care Setting: The "Intended User / Care Setting" section reinforces this by stating it's "Intended for in vitro diagnostic use in automated, semi automated, and manual chemistry systems."

All of these points clearly indicate that the device is designed to be used outside of the body (in vitro) for diagnostic purposes, which is the definition of an IVD.

§ 862.1660 Quality control material (assayed and unassayed).

(a)
Identification. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) for clinical chemistry is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to estimate test precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations that may arise from reagent or analytical instrument variation. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys. This generic type of device includes controls (assayed and unassayed) for blood gases, electrolytes, enzymes, multianalytes (all kinds), single (specified) analytes, or urinalysis controls.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). Except when intended for use in donor screening tests, quality control materials (assayed and unassayed) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.

Dear Ms. Cressman:

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).
