Intended Use
CR-E reagent, when used in conjunction with SYNCHRON® Systems, UniCel® DxC Systems and SYNCHRON® Systems AQUA CAL 1 and 2 and SYNCHRON CX® Calibrator Level 1 and 2, is intended for the quantitative determination of creatinine (CR-E) concentration in human serum, plasma or urine (urine is not available on the SYNCHRON CX® PRO Systems). Creatinine measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of renal diseases, in monitoring renal dialysis, and as a calculation basis for measuring other urine analytes.
Device Description
CR-E reagent is used to measure the creatinine concentration by an enzymatic method. This enzymatic creatinine method utilizes a multi-step approach ending with a photometric end-point reaction. The SYNCHRON Enzymatic Creatinine (CR-E) Reagent is designed for optimal performance on the SYNCHRON LX®, UniCel® DxC 600/800, and SYNCHRON CX® PRO Clinical Systems. The reagent kit contains two 200-test cartridges that are packaged separately from the associated calibrator.

No
The summary describes a chemical reagent and its performance in standard laboratory tests, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is a reagent for the quantitative determination of creatinine concentration, used for diagnosis and monitoring of renal diseases, but it does not directly treat or prevent a disease.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that "Creatinine measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of renal diseases". This indicates the device aids in diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "reagent kit" containing "two 200-test cartridges," which are physical components, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the reagent is for the "quantitative determination of creatinine (CR-E) concentration in human serum, plasma or urine." This is a measurement performed in vitro (outside the body) on biological samples.
  • Purpose: The creatinine measurements are used "in the diagnosis and treatment of renal diseases, in monitoring renal dialysis, and as a calculation basis for measuring other urine analytes." This directly relates to providing information for medical diagnosis and treatment, which is a key characteristic of an IVD.
  • Device Description: The description details a "reagent" used to measure a substance in biological samples using an "enzymatic method" with a "photometric end-point reaction." This is a typical description of an IVD reagent used in a laboratory setting.
  • Performance Studies: The document includes performance studies like method comparison and precision, which are standard evaluations for IVD devices to demonstrate their accuracy and reliability for clinical use.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device" with a K number (K071283) indicates that this device is being compared to a previously cleared IVD, further confirming its classification as an IVD.

All these factors align with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The data in the Premarket Notification on safety and effectiveness supports a finding of substantial equivalence to chemistry test systems already in commercial distribution. Equivalence is demonstrated through method comparison, stability, linearity, and imprecision experiments.

Dear Ms. Boyajian:

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); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820).
