Intended Use
The Audit™ MicroCV™ Procalcitonin Linearity Set is assayed quality control material consisting of five levels of Procalcitonin analyte in bovine serum albumin. The five levels demonstrate a linear relationship to each other for the Procalcitonin analyte. It is intended to simulate human patient serum samples for the purpose of monitoring the precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations of laboratory testing procedures for Procalcitonin. This product may be used as an assayed quality control material for Procalcitonin analyte.
Device Description
The Audit™ MicroCV™ Procalcitonin Linearity Set is a bovine serum albumin, freeze dried, five level set of QC material, with each level containing one analyte: Procalcitonin. It is used to confirm the proper calibration, linear operating range, and reportable range of Procalcitonin. Level A has concentration near the lower limit level and Level E has concentrations near the upper limit level of instruments. Levels B – D are related by linear dilution of Level A and Level E.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device is a quality control material for laboratory testing and does not involve any computational analysis or algorithms.

No
This device is a quality control material intended to monitor the precision and detect analytical deviations of laboratory testing procedures, not to treat or diagnose patients.

No

Explanation: This device is a quality control material used for monitoring the precision and detecting analytical deviations in laboratory testing procedures for a specific analyte (Procalcitonin). It is not directly used to diagnose a patient's condition.

No

The device is a physical quality control material (freeze-dried bovine serum albumin with Procalcitonin) used in laboratory testing, not a software application.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that it is "intended to simulate human patient serum samples for the purpose of monitoring the precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations of laboratory testing procedures for Procalcitonin." This clearly indicates its use in the in vitro examination of specimens derived from the human body.
  • Device Description: The description further clarifies its use in confirming "the proper calibration, linear operating range, and reportable range of Procalcitonin," which are all activities performed in a laboratory setting on patient samples.
  • Intended User/Care Setting: The intended user is "laboratory testing procedures," reinforcing its use in a clinical laboratory environment.

While it is a quality control material and not a diagnostic test itself, it is an essential component used with diagnostic tests performed in vitro on human specimens. Therefore, it falls under the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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.
