Intended Use
The S TEST Reagent Cartridge Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) is intended for the quantitative measurement of alkaline phosphatase activity in serum, lithium heparinized plasma, or sodium citrate plasma using the HITACHI Clinical Analyzer. The S TEST Reagent Cartridge Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) is intended for use in clinical laboratories or physician office laboratories. For in vitro diagnostic use only. Measurements of alkaline phosphatase are used in the diagnosis and treatment of liver, bone, parathyroid, and intestinal diseases.
Device Description
The Hitachi Clinical Analyzer is an automatic, bench-top, wet chemistry system intended for use in clinical laboratories or physician office laboratories. The instrument consists of a desktop analyzer unit, an operations screen that prompts the user for operation input and displays data, a printer, and a unit cover. The analyzer unit includes a single probe, an incubation rotor, carousels for sample cups and reagent cartridges, and a multi-wavelength photometer. The single-use reagent cartridges may be placed in any configuration on the carousel, allowing the user to develop any test panel where the reagent cartridges are available. The S TEST reagent cartridges are made of plastic and include two small reservoirs capable of holding two separate reagents (R1 and R2), separated by a reaction cell/photometric cuvette. The cartridges also include a dot code label that contains all chemistry parameters, calibration factors, and other production-related information, e.g., expiration dating. The dimensions of the reagent cartridges are: 13.5 mm (W) × 28 mm (D) × 20.2 mm (H). System operation: After the sample cup is placed into the carousel, the analyzer pipettes the sample, pipettes the reagent, and mixes (stirs) the sample and reagent together. After the sample and reagent react in the incubator bath, the analyzer measures the absorbance of the sample, and based on the absorbance of the reactions, it calculates the concentration of analyte in the sample. The test system can measure analytes in serum or plasma and results are available in approximately 15 minutes per test. This submission is for Reagent Cartridge ALP. Chemistry reactions: Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in the sample reacts with its substrate, pnitrophenyl phosphate (p-NPP), in ethylaminoethanol (EAE) buffer, to release p-nitrophenol (yellow). The ALP activity is determined by measuring the rate of p-nitrophenol production.
More Information

No
The description details a standard automated wet chemistry analyzer and reagent cartridge, with no mention of AI or ML in the device operation, data analysis, or performance studies.

No.
Explanation: The device is an in-vitro diagnostic instrument and reagent cartridge for measuring alkaline phosphatase activity, which assists in diagnosing diseases but does not provide direct therapy.

Yes

The device, described as "The S TEST Reagent Cartridge Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) is intended for the quantitative measurement of alkaline phosphatase activity in serum, lithium heparinized plasma, or sodium citrate plasma," is explicitly stated to be used for "diagnosis and treatment of liver, bone, parathyroid, and intestinal diseases." This directly aligns with the definition of a diagnostic device.

No

The device described is a reagent cartridge for a wet chemistry analyzer, which is a physical component used in a laboratory instrument. The 510(k) summary focuses on the performance of the reagent and the analyzer system, not on standalone software.

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

Here's why:

  • Explicit Statement: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section clearly states: "For in vitro diagnostic use only."
  • Intended Use: The device is intended for the "quantitative measurement of alkaline phosphatase activity in serum, lithium heparinized plasma, or sodium citrate plasma." This involves testing biological samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Clinical Context: The measurements are used "in the diagnosis and treatment of liver, bone, parathyroid, and intestinal diseases," which is a clear clinical application.
  • Care Setting: The intended users are "clinical laboratories or physician office laboratories," which are settings where IVD testing is performed.

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol

A series of studies were performed that evaluated the following nonclinical performance characteristics for each analytical sensitivity (limits of detection), linearity, 20-day in-house precision, interference testing, in-house method comparisons, and matrices comparison between serum and heparin plasma.
Analytical Sensitivity (Limits of Detection): The study followed CLSI EP17-A, and the limit of detection was found to be 1.8 U/L.
Linearity: The study followed CLSI EP-6A, and the range of linearity was 5 U/L to 1,000 U/L.
20-day In-house Precision: The studies followed CLSI EP5-A2, where three levels of samples were each tested in two runs, twice a day, for 20 days.
Interference Testing: (per CLSI EP7-A2) Two serum pools containing approximately 12 mg/L and 80 U/L ALP.
Method Comparison: A total of 97 clinical specimens spanning the dynamic range (11 to 926 U/L), were assayed in singleton and in a blinded fashion by both the Hitachi system and a standard laboratory system.
Matrices Comparisons: A study was performed to validate the use of two plasma types as an alternative to serum for the Hitachi Clinical Analyzer with S TEST Reagent Cartridge Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP). The plasma types were sodium citrate and lithium heparin. Thirty-eight (38) matched serum/plasma samples that spanned the dynamic range (13 to 967) were assayed in singleton.
