Intended Use

The Poly-Chem 90 ISE Module is for the quantitative in vitro measurement of sodium, potassium, and chloride in human serum on the Poly-Chem 90 clinical chemistry analyzer.

Sodium measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of aldosteronism (excessive secretion of the hormone aldosterone), diabetes insipidus (chronic excretion of large amounts of dilute urine, accompanied by extreme thirst), adrenal hypertension, Addison's disease (caused by destruction of the adrenal glands), dehydration, inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion, or other diseases involving electrolyte imbalance.

Potassium measurements are used to monitor electrolyte balance in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases conditions characterized by low or high blood potassium levels.

Chloride measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of electrolyte and metabolic disorders such as cystic fibrosis and diabetic acidosis.

Device Description

Poly-Chem 90 ISE Module is for the quantitative in vitro measurement of the level of sodium, potassium and chloride in human serum on the Poly-Chem 90 clinical chemistry analyzer. The ISE module measures sodium, potassium and chloride using ion selective electrode technology.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the Poly-Chem 90 ISE Module's acceptance criteria and the study proving it meets those criteria, based on the provided text:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria for the Poly-Chem 90 ISE Module appear to be established by demonstrating substantial equivalence to the predicate device (Randox RX Daytona ISE Module) across various performance characteristics. While explicit numerical "acceptance criteria" are not stated as pass/fail thresholds independent of the predicate, the comparison implicitly sets the predicate's performance as the benchmark.

2. Sample Sizes Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The document provides sample sizes for the method comparison studies (where the device is compared to the predicate), which can be considered part of the test set:

  • Sodium (Na): 63 samples
  • Potassium (K): 74 samples
  • Chloride (Cl): 74 samples

The precision, linearity, and sensitivity tests also involved samples, but the exact number of unique patient samples isn't specified in detail beyond "Samples from [range] mmol/L" for precision.

Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin or whether the data was retrospective or prospective. It only mentions the measurement of levels in "human serum."

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

This information is not provided in the document. For an in vitro diagnostic device like this, "ground truth" would typically refer to the reference method (the predicate device in this case, or a gold standard method) rather than expert interpretation of images or clinical data. There is no mention of human experts being involved in establishing the "ground truth" for the performance characteristics of this chemical analyzer.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This is not applicable as the ground truth is established by chemical measurement, not through expert review and adjudication.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

A MRMC comparative effectiveness study is not applicable to this type of device (in vitro diagnostic for chemical analysis). This study design is typically used for imaging diagnostics where human readers interpret results, often with and without AI assistance.

6. Standalone Performance

Yes, a standalone performance evaluation was done. The precision, linearity, and sensitivity studies presented in the "Summary of performance testing" section (pages 3-4) directly demonstrate the performance of the Poly-Chem 90 ISE Module itself, without comparison to the predicate. The method comparison studies (page 4) also provide the device's measurements, which are then compared to the predicate, implicitly showing its standalone output.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for evaluating this device's performance appears to be primarily:

  • Reference measurements/Method comparison: The predicate device (Randox RX Daytona ISE Module) serves as the comparator for method comparison studies, implying that its measurements are considered the "truth" for this comparison.
  • Established analytical methods: For precision, linearity, and sensitivity, the ground truth is based on the inherent principles of analytical chemistry and expected performance characteristics for such assays. For example, linearity is assessed against a theoretical linear response, and precision against statistical variability.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not provide information about a specific "training set" or its sample size. This device is an in vitro diagnostic analyzer, not an AI/ML algorithm that typically undergoes a distinct training phase on a dataset. Its performance is characterized through analytical validation studies (precision, linearity, etc.), not a machine learning training process.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

As there is no mention of a "training set" in the context of an AI/ML algorithm, this question is not applicable. The device's operational parameters and calibration are established through standard analytical chemistry principles and calibration procedures (e.g., using Medica Calibrator A and B, as mentioned) during its manufacturing and setup, not through a data-driven training process.

Dear Ms. Landicho:

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).
