No
The device is a quality control material for hematology analyzers and does not perform analysis or interpretation using AI/ML. The description focuses on its composition and stability testing.

No
This device is a quality control material used to monitor hematology analyzers, not to treat patients.

No

This device is a quality control material used to monitor the performance of hematology analyzers, not to diagnose a patient's medical condition. It helps ensure the accuracy and precision of diagnostic instruments.

No

The device is a physical quality control material (treated, stabilized human erythrocytes) used to monitor the performance of hematology analyzers, not a software application.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it is a "hematology quality control material used to monitor the performance of COULTER hematology analyzers". This clearly indicates it is used in vitro (outside the body) to assess the performance of a diagnostic device.
  • Device Description: The description details its composition ("treated, stabilized human erythrocytes in an isotonic medium", "stabilized, platelet-sized component", "fixed erythrocytes to simulate leukocytes") and its function ("confirms and monitors instrument accuracy and precision performance by providing measurements for counting, sizing and hemoglobin determination"). These are all characteristics of a material used for in vitro diagnostic purposes.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies described (stability, value assignment, range determination) are typical evaluations performed on in vitro diagnostic devices, particularly quality control materials.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a predicate device (K010064; COULTER® 4C®-ES Cell Control) which is also a hematology quality control material, further supports its classification as an IVD.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the 4C®EX 300 Cell Control is an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 864.8625 Hematology quality control mixture.

(a)
Identification. A hematology quality control mixture is a device used to ascertain the accuracy and precision of manual, semiautomated, and automated determinations of cell parameters such as white cell count (WBC), red cell count (RBC), platelet count (PLT), hemoglobin, hematocrit (HCT), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC).(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). Except when intended for use in blood components, the device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 864.9.

Dear Ms. Coba:

.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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

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
