No
The summary describes a calibration verification kit with purified chemicals in a human serum albumin base. There are no mentions of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices. The performance studies focus on linearity and comparison to a predicate device, not on algorithmic performance metrics.

No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic test kit used for calibration verification and linearity testing of analytical instruments, not for treating any medical condition.

No

This device is described as a "Calibration Verification / Linearity Test Kit" intended for "in vitro diagnostic use in the quantitative determination of linearity, calibration verification and verification of reportable range." It establishes the performance of analytes, which means it helps ensure that other diagnostic devices are working correctly, rather than performing a diagnosis itself.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "Test Kit" containing "purified chemicals in a human serum albumin base," indicating it is a physical product, not software.

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

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states:

"VALIDATE® GC3 Calibration Verification / Linearity Test Kit is intended for in vitro diagnostic use in the quantitative determination of linearity, calibration verification and verification of reportable range."

This statement clearly indicates that the device is designed to be used outside of the body (in vitro) for diagnostic purposes.

§ 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.

Dear Ms. Cressman:

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).
