Comments on Substantial Equivalence:
Models of the Dimension® clinical chemistry systems are designed similarly for the same purpose. They are floor model units that are microprocessor-controlled, integrated instrument systems that use prepackaged. Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Flex® reagent cartridges and integrated ion selective multisensor technology to analyze a variety of analytes in human body fluids. The instruments spectrally analyze processed clinical samples using chemical and immunochemical methodologies. To ensure substantial equivalence with the Operating System change, representative methods were tested on instruments with ONX based software and compared to results of the same samples and methods on instruments updated with the Linux Operating System (revision 10.0 software). The representative methods, Na. K. Cl. GLUC, TSH and AST, were chosen to exercise different detection technologies on the instruments.
Comparative data for Method Comparison and Precision (with in run, within lab) demonstrate equivalent performance in evaluations of the representative methods.
Conclusion:
The Dimension® clinical chemistry systems with the Linux Operating System (revision 10.0 software), are substantially equivalent in principle and performance to Dimension® clinical chemistry systems with QNX operating systems, based on the similarity of system design and comparative data from representative methods.

Dear Lorraine H. Piestrak:
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).
