Intended Use
The iQ 200 System is intended for analysis of urine chemistry, specific gravity, and formed sediment elements, which constitutes typical routine urinalysis. Urinalysis is ordered by physicians as a screening procedure for detection of possible abnormal metabolic or systemic disease, indicated by chemical composition of urine, and of potential renal or urinary tract disease or dysfunction, indicated by urine concentration and by the nature and distribution of urinary formed elements. Urine profile testing is commonly employed in the initial clinical evaluation of patients admitted for hospital care or undergoing physical examinations. Routine urinalysis is also indicated in diagnosis of patients with possible renal or urinary tract infection, carcinoma, or other injury, as well as for monitoring the status and effectiveness of drug, radiation, or dietary therapy, and of post-surgical or posttherapeutic recovery. The information produced by the iQ 200 System concerning the composition of patient urines is ordered at the discretion of the physician, and is part of a larger body of laboratory and other test results available to assist the physician in health assessments or differential diagnoses. Routine urinalysis findings are always subject to judgment and interpretation by physicians relative to the patient's overall clinical presentation and history.
Device Description
The iQ 200 System is an in-vitro diagnostic device used to automate the complete urinalysis profile, including urine test strip chemistry panel and microscopic sediment analysis. Optionally, the iQ 200 Analyzer can be used as a stand-alone unit, or the results from the iQ 200 Analyzer can be combined with other urine chemistry results received from an LIS. It produces quantitative or qualitative counts of all formed sediment elements present in urine, including cells, casts, crystals, and organisms. A competent human operator can set criteria for auto-reporting and flagging specimens for review. All instrument analyte image decisions may be reviewed and overridden by a trained technologist. The iQ Lamina Cradle is a new accessory to be used with the iQ Series of Urine Microscopy Analyzers (K022774). The iQ Lamina Cradle is connected to the iQ Series via a 5V DC USB bus, and is under software control of the desktop computer that is part of the iQ Series. The cradle contains a RFID transceiver and antenna. In simple terms, it recognizes a legitimate IRIS RFID tag embedded in the container label of each 7 liter iQ Lamina Bottle. The software tracks the consumption of iQ Lamina. Visual warning and error messages are displayed as flags in the system software. Audio alerts are communicated through the cradle's speaker. The tracking will alert the operator when a bottle is empty or when a bottle not containing an Iris RFID chip is being used.

Unknown
The document mentions an "auto analyte recognition algorithm" for image analysis, which could potentially utilize AI/ML techniques, but it does not explicitly state that AI or ML is used. Without further information or specific mention of AI/ML terms, it's impossible to definitively confirm its presence.

No.
The device is an in-vitro diagnostic device used for analyzing urine composition for diagnostic purposes, not for treating or preventing disease.

Yes

The 'Intended Use / Indications for Use' section explicitly states that the system is used for "screening procedure for detection of possible abnormal metabolic or systemic disease" and "in diagnosis of patients with possible renal or urinary tract infection, carcinoma, or other injury." The 'Device Description' also states that the iQ 200 System is an "in-vitro diagnostic device".

No

The device description explicitly mentions hardware components like the iQ 200 Analyzer, the iQ Lamina Cradle with an RFID transceiver and antenna, and a desktop computer. While software is a critical part of the system, it is not a software-only medical device.

Based on the provided text, the iQ 200 System is indeed an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the system is for the "analysis of urine chemistry, specific gravity, and formed sediment elements," which constitutes "typical routine urinalysis." This analysis is performed on a biological specimen (urine) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The device is described as an "in-vitro diagnostic device used to automate the complete urinalysis profile." This directly identifies it as an IVD.
  • Purpose: The information produced by the system is intended to "assist the physician in health assessments or differential diagnoses." This aligns with the purpose of IVD devices.

The addition of the iQ Lamina Cradle, while an accessory, is designed to be used with the iQ Series of Urine Microscopy Analyzers, which are themselves IVD devices. The cradle's function is to manage a reagent (iQ Lamina) used in the diagnostic process.

Therefore, the iQ 200 System, as described, clearly fits the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

The iQ 200 System provides automatic sample handling for automated intelligent microscopy and automatic analyte classification for improved data reporting, presentation and management. Specimens are aspirated by an auto sampler rather than poured manually. Each image is analyzed and assigned a classification by an auto analyte recognition algorithm. Using these classifications and the known observation volume, microscopic analyte concentrations may be automatically reported. If results from a specimen are not auto reported, microscopic examination results are displayed on an independent computer Workstation. Operators can then confirm or modify analyte classification and release reports off-line for enhanced convenience, obviating the need to process a second aliquot for review. Chemistry results from the companion ARKRAY AUTION MAX AX-4280 are automatically consolidated by the Computer Workstation for display and reporting.
