Intended Use
Multichem P is intended for use as a single level assayed quality control material to monitor the precision of laboratory testing procedures for the analytes listed in the package insert.
Device Description
The Multichem P control is prepared from human serum to which purified biochemical material (extracts of human origin), chemicals, drugs/preservatives and stabilizers have been added. The control is used in liquid form for convenience. This control is provided in a single level control only with twelve vials, each vial containing 3 mL.
More Information

No
The summary describes a quality control material for laboratory testing, with no mention of AI or ML in its intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No.
The device is a quality control material used to monitor the precision of laboratory testing procedures, not to treat or diagnose patients.

No

Explanation: The Multichem P is a quality control material used to monitor the precision of laboratory testing procedures, not to diagnose a patient's condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a liquid control material prepared from human serum with added biochemical material, chemicals, drugs/preservatives, and stabilizers, indicating it is a physical substance, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it is "intended for use as a single level assayed quality control material to monitor the precision of laboratory testing procedures for the analytes listed in the package insert." This clearly indicates its use in a laboratory setting for diagnostic testing.
  • Device Description: The description mentions it is "prepared from human serum" and is used in "liquid form for convenience." This aligns with the typical format of IVD controls.
  • Intended User / Care Setting: It specifies "laboratory testing procedures," which is the environment where IVD tests are performed.
  • Performance Studies: The description of performance studies details value assignment testing, stability studies, and testing on a specific clinical chemistry system (Abbott ARCHITECT c8000). This type of testing is standard for IVD devices to demonstrate their performance characteristics.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a predicate device (K022991; Liquichek™ Immunology Control) is a strong indicator that this device is being compared to another legally marketed IVD device, which is a common part of the regulatory process for IVDs.

While the document doesn't mention image processing, AI, DNN, ML, imaging modality, anatomical site, or patient age range, these are not requirements for a device to be classified as an IVD. The core function of being used in a laboratory to monitor the precision of diagnostic tests is the key factor.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Value assignment testing was performed utilizing internal procedures and protocols to determine typical values that would be seen for the product across Abbott ARCHITECT c8000 clinical chemistry systems with the associated reagent test systems. Value assignment ranges were established at the pre-determined criteria of 20%. The values provided in the instructions for use were derived from replicate analyses and are specific for a particular lot of product. Tests were performed by the control manufacturer and/or by independent laboratories, for various methods and instrument systems. Laboratory means may vary from the values listed during the life of the control. Values are provided only as guidelines, each laboratory should establish its own statistical limits.

Stability studies have been performed to determine the open vial stability and shelf-life for this control. For open vial stability, Technopath utilized internal procedures and protocols methods.

Product claims are as follows:

Open Vial Stability:

  • 14 days at 2 to 8°C

A combination of accelerated and preliminary real-time testing was carried out utilizing procedures and protocols in order to support a shelf-life storage claim of -20° to -80°C for 30 months. The accelerated testing utilized three lots of controls and the real-time testing utilized one lot of controls. All data was generated using the Abbott ARCHITECT c8000 Chemistry system with the associated reagent test systems. The Drift Limit was determined to be 10%. These results concluded that the Multichem P control is predicted to be stable for in excess of 30 months when stored at -20℃ to -80℃. The real-time testing is on-going.

§ 862.1660 Quality control material (assayed and unassayed).

(a)
Identification. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) for clinical chemistry is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to estimate test precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations that may arise from reagent or analytical instrument variation. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys. This generic type of device includes controls (assayed and unassayed) for blood gases, electrolytes, enzymes, multianalytes (all kinds), single (specified) analytes, or urinalysis controls.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). Except when intended for use in donor screening tests, quality control materials (assayed and unassayed) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.
