Intended Use
STA® - Free PS Calibrator kit is a set of calibrator plasmas intended for use with analyzers of the STA® line suitable to these reagents for the calibration of free protein S assays by the immuno-turbidimetric method, STA® - Liatest® Free PS.
Device Description
The STA® - Free PS Calibrator kit is a set of lyophilized human plasmas used to create the calibration curve on an IVD instrument performing the immunoturbidimetric method for free protein S assays, STA® - Liatest® Free PS. Such IVD instruments being the STA® product line of medical device analyzers such as STA-R® and STA Compact®. In the lyophilized state and uncompromised primary packaging, the product calibrator plasmas remain stable for a period of 18 months from the date of manufacture when stored at 2 - 8°C. In the reconstituted state, STA® - Free PS Calibrator have demonstrated to be stable for 4 hours on board STA-R® and STA Compact®.

No
The summary describes a calibrator kit for an immunoassay, which is a standard laboratory technique. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or the specific sections for AI/ML mentions.

No
The device is a calibrator kit for in vitro diagnostic (IVD) instruments, used to create a calibration curve for free protein S assays. It does not directly treat or diagnose a disease.

No

Explanation: This device is a calibrator kit used to calibrate analyzers for free protein S assays, not a diagnostic device itself. It helps ensure the accuracy of diagnostic tests performed by other instruments.

No

The device is a kit of lyophilized human plasmas, which are physical components, not software. It is intended for use with IVD instruments (analyzers), which are also hardware.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's "intended for use with analyzers of the STA® line suitable to these reagents for the calibration of free protein S assays by the immuno-turbidimetric method, STA® - Liatest® Free PS." This describes a product used in vitro (outside the body) to calibrate a test that measures a substance in a biological sample (plasma).
  • Device Description: The description further clarifies that it's a "set of lyophilized human plasmas used to create the calibration curve on an IVD instrument performing the immunoturbidimetric method for free protein S assays." It also mentions that it's used with "IVD instruments being the STA® product line of medical device analyzers."
  • Predicate Device: The inclusion of a predicate device (K041905; HemosIL™) which is also an IVD, strongly suggests that this device falls under the same regulatory category.

The core function of this device is to calibrate an in vitro diagnostic test, making it an essential component of the IVD testing process itself.

Dear Mr. Parrotta:

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 class II (Special Controls), 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). This letter
