Device Description

The CAPILLARYS Hb A1c kit, controls and calibrators are used with the CAPILLARYS 2 FLEX-PIERCING system. The CAPILLARYS 2 FLEX-PIERCING instrument uses the principle of capillary electrophoresis in free solution. With this technique, charged molecules are separated by their electrophoretic mobility in an alkaline buffer with a specific pH. Separation also occurs according to the electrolyte pH and electroosmotic flow. The CAPILLARYS 2 FLEX-PIERCING instrument has silica capillaries functioning in parallel allowing 8 simultaneous analyses for HbA1c quantification from whole blood sample. A sample dilution with hemolysing solution is prepared and injected by aspiration at the anodic end of the capillary. A high voltage protein separation is then performed and direct detection of the hemoglobins is made at the cathodic end of the capillary at 415 nm, which is the absorbance wave length specific to hemoglobins. Before each run, the capillaries are washed with a wash solution and prepared for the next analysis with buffer.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The provided text does not explicitly list "acceptance criteria" in a quantitative format for the CAPILLARYS Hb A1c system's performance. Instead, it describes a "comparison" or "concordance" study against a predicate device to establish substantial equivalence.

The document highlights the following performance aspects through comparison:

The text explicitly states: "The SEBIA CAPILLARYS Hb A1c procedure, performed with the CAPILLARYS 2 FLEX-PIERCING system were found to be substantially equivalent in function, use, safety, effectiveness and the performance to predicate devices described above." This statement implies that the device meets the functional and performance criteria demonstrated by the predicate device. However, specific quantitative acceptance criteria (e.g., precision, accuracy ranges) and their corresponding reported values for the new device are not detailed in the provided excerpt. The comparison table focuses on defining similarities to establish equivalence rather than listing specific performance metrics against pre-defined acceptance limits.

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

The document mentions "performance and comparative studies" were conducted. However, it does not specify the sample size used for the test set or the data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective nature of the data).

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. As this is an in vitro diagnostic device for quantitative measurement, the "ground truth" would typically refer to reference method results or highly accurate measurements, rather than expert consensus on image interpretation. The document indicates standardization against NGSP and IFCC, which are recognized programs for HbA1c measurement, implying traceability to established reference methods, but details on how ground truth was established for this specific study's test set are absent.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This information is not applicable/provided. Adjudication methods (like 2+1, 3+1) are typically used for subjective assessments where multiple experts review cases and resolve discrepancies. For a quantitative in vitro diagnostic device, the ground truth is established through analytical methods, not typically by expert adjudication of diagnoses.

5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

This information is not applicable. The device is an in vitro diagnostic instrument for HbA1c quantification. It is not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for human readers/clinicians, and thus, an MRMC study comparing human reader performance with and without AI assistance is not relevant to this submission.

6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done

The device itself is a standalone in vitro diagnostic instrument. The performance studies mentioned refer to the analytical performance of the instrument system (CAPILLARYS Hb A1c procedure with the CAPILLARYS 2 FLEX-PIERCING instrument) in measuring HbA1c. Therefore, the entire system operates in a standalone capacity for measurement. The document states that the performance studies were performed using SEBIA's commercially available materials and standard procedures, and compared against a predicate device, which inherently implies standalone performance evaluation.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

The ground truth for this type of quantitative diagnostic device for HbA1c is typically established by reference methods traceable to internationally recognized standardization programs (NGSP and IFCC). The document explicitly states: "CAPILLARYS Hb A1c test is standardized according to NGSP and IFCC requirements/guidelines." This means that the accuracy of the device's measurements would be compared against results obtained by these highly accurate, standardized reference methods.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This information is not provided. As this is a laboratory diagnostic assay, there isn't typically a "training set" in the machine learning sense. The assay is developed and validated, and its performance characterized through studies. If there were method development activities, the number of samples used for optimization is not specified.

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

This information is not provided and not directly applicable in the context of a traditional training set for an algorithmic device. For the development and validation of an in vitro diagnostic assay like this, the "ground truth" for calibrators and controls (which are used to ensure accurate measurements) is established through precise analytical methods, typically traceable to reference standards from NGSP and IFCC, as mentioned in the document for the device's standardization.

510(k) SUMMARY 1.

INTENDED USE AND SUMMARY OF THE PROCEDURES

The CAPILLARYS Hb A1c kit is designed for separation and quantification of the HbA1c glycated fraction of hemoglobin in human blood, by capillary electrophoresis in alkaline buffer (pH 9.4) with the CAPILLARYS 2 FLEX-PIERCING instrument. The CAPILLARYS Hb A1c kit is designed for laboratory use. Measurement of the hemoglobin A1c is effective in monitoring long-term glycemic control in individuals with diabetes mellitus. The CAPILLARYS Hb A1c kit is designed for Professional Use Only.

For In Vitro Diagnostic Use.

The CAPILLARYS Hb A1c procedure performed with the CAPILLARYS 2 FLEX-PIERCING instrument has been certified by the National Glycohemoglobin Standardization Program (NGSP).

Electrophoresis is a well established technique routinely used in clinical laboratories for measuring components from body fluids, including HbA1c glycated fraction. The CAPILLARYS 2 FLEX-PIERCING instrument has been developed to provide complete automation of this testing with fast separation and good resolution. In many aspects, the methodology can be considered as an intermediary type of technique between classical zone electrophoresis and liquid chromatography.

The CAPILLARYS 2 FLEX-PIERCING instrument uses the principle of capillary electrophoresis in free solution. With this technique, charged molecules are separated by their electrophoretic mobility in an alkaline buffer with a specific pH. Separation also occurs according to the electrolyte pH and electroosmotic flow.

The CAPILLARYS 2 FLEX-PIERCING instrument has silica capillaries functioning in parallel allowing 8 simultaneous analyses for HbA1c quantification from whole blood sample. A sample dilution with hemolysing solution is prepared and injected by aspiration at the anodic end of the capillary. A high voltage protein separation is then performed and direct detection of the hemoglobins is made at the cathodic end of the capillary at 415 nm, which is the absorbance wave length specific to hemoglobins. Before each run, the capillaries are washed with a wash solution and prepared for the next analysis with buffer.

Direct detection provides accurate relative quantification of individual hemoglobin Arefraction. In addition, the high resolution of CAPILLARYS Hb A1c procedure allows the quantification of HbArc, even in the presence of labile HbAxe, carbamylated hemoglobins, major hemoglobin variants such as HbS, HbC, HbD, HbE and HbF and common interfering factors such as Trialycerides, Bilirubin, Ascorbic Acid, Urea, Rheumatoid factor, and Glybenclamide as outlined in the package insert labeling.

By using alkaline pH buffer, normal and abnormal (or variant) hemoglobins are detected in the following order, from cathode to anode : A2/C, E, S/D, F, A0, other Hb (including minor Hb A1) and then A1c.
