No
The description details standard clinical chemistry and ISE methods, and there is no mention of AI, ML, or related technologies.
No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) clinical chemistry system used for quantitative measurements of certain analytes in patient samples, which aid in diagnosis and treatment, but the device itself does not directly provide therapy.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the system is "intended for in vitro diagnostic use in the quantitative measurement of general chemistry assays for clinical use," and that measurements of sodium, potassium, chloride, and glucose are "used in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases."
No
The device description explicitly states that the system consists of two major components: a chemistry instrument and an integrated Panel PC. The instrument performs physical measurements on samples, indicating the presence of hardware beyond just software.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Explicit Statement: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section clearly states: "The ACE Axcel Clinical Chemistry System is an automated, discrete, bench-top, random access analyzer that is intended for in vitro diagnostic use..." and "For in vitro diagnostic use only." This is the most direct indicator.
- Nature of the Tests: The device performs quantitative measurements of general chemistry assays (sodium, potassium, chloride, glucose) in biological samples (serum). These types of tests are inherently in vitro diagnostics, as they are performed outside of the living body to provide information for diagnosis and treatment.
- Clinical Use: The intended use specifies "for clinical use in physician office laboratories or clinical laboratories," which aligns with the typical use of IVD devices in healthcare settings.
- Diagnostic Purpose: The descriptions of the individual tests (sodium, potassium, chloride, glucose) explicitly state their use in the "diagnosis and treatment of diseases" and "monitoring electrolyte balance." This confirms the diagnostic purpose of the measurements.

Device Description
The ACE Axcel Clinical Chemistry System consists of two major components, the chemistry instrument and an integrated Panel PC. The instrument accepts the physical patient samples, performs the appropriate optical or potentiometric measurements on those samples and communicates that data to an integral Panel PC. The Panel PC uses keyboard or touch screen input to manually enter a variety of data, control and accept data from the instrument, manage and maintain system information and generate reports relative to patient status and instrument performance. The Panel PC also allows remote download of patient requisitions and upload of patient results via a standard interface.
In the ACE Glucose Reagent assay, glucose in serum reacts with adenosine triphosphate in the presence of hexokinase and magnesium with the formation of glucose-6-phosphate and adenosine diphosphate. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase catalyzes the oxidation of glucose-6-phosphate with NAD+ to form 6-phosphogluconate and NADH. NADH absorbs strongly at 340 nm, whereas NAD+ does not. The total amount of NADH formed is proportional to the concentration of glucose in the sample. The increase in absorbance is measured bichromatically at 340 nm/378 nm.
The ACE Ion Selective Electrode (ISE) Module is used with ACE CAL A and CAL B Calibration Solutions in the performance of a two-point calibration in order to measure concentrations of sodium, potassium and chloride in undiluted serum. The ISE module uses a potentiometric method to simultaneously measure sodium, potassium and chloride in undiluted serum. Each electrode uses an ion-specific membrane to measure the difference in ionic concentration between an inner electrolyte solution and the sample. This difference causes an electro-chemical potential to form on the membrane of the active electrode. The connection of the amplifier and ground (reference electrode) to the ion selective electrode forms the measuring system. The two-point calibration with CAL A and CAL B with precisely known ion concentrations (two-point calibration) and the measured voltage difference of the sample and CAL A are used to determine the ion concentration in the sample.

Technological | |
Characteristics: | The following is a description of the major features of the ACE Axcel |
Clinical Chemistry System: System throughput is approximately 160 test results per hour for | |
routine, single reagent chemistries. System throughput will be | |
higher when the test workload includes ISE's. The instrument has a capacity of 40 reagent containers on board. | |
A reagent cooling system maintains the reagents at 12°C during | |
instrument operation. Reagent containers are identified by computer coded labels to | |
simplify system operation. All reagents in the system must | |
include an identification label on the container. Sample and reagent sensing notify the operator of a depleted | |
condition during operation. The system performs analysis at a reaction temperature of 37°C. An electrolyte subsystem capable of measuring sodium, | |
potassium and chloride concentrations is included. Primary draw tubes may be introduced one at a time into the | |
system for closed tube sampling. Positive tube identification can | |
be achieved with an optional barcode scanner. An aliquot volume | |
sufficient for all tests ordered is transferred and stored and the | |
closed tube is returned to the user. | |
• Sample cups are introduced to the system one at a time or by | |
sample ring segment. | |
• Disposable cuvettes are loaded in bulk and then automatically | |
injected as needed by a cuvette hopper system. The ACE Axcel | |
clinical chemistry optical system is capable of monitoring a | |
maximum of 48 cuvettes at one time. | |
• The absorbance optical system is capable of absorbance | |
measurements in a linear range of 0.0 to 2.0 absorbance units (at | |
0.67 cm pathlength). Sixteen wavelengths are measured | |
simultaneously using a photodiode array. | |
The ACE Glucose Reagent consists of a single reagent bottle. The | |
reagent contains nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), adenosine | |
5'-triphosphate (ATP), magnesium, hexokinase and glucose-6- | |
phosphate dehydrogenase. | |
The ACE Ion Selective Electrode (ISE) Module uses a potentiometric | |
