Intended Use
The CardioChek Plus Test System is a small portable analyzer and test strip system intended for multiple patient use in professional healthcare settings. This system should only be used with single-use, auto-disabling lancing devices. This system is for in vitro diagnostic use only. The tests strips are for the quantitative determination of glucose, total cholesterol, HDL (high density lipoprotein) cholesterol and triglycerides in venous whole blood from the fingertip. A Chol/HDL ratio and estimated values for LDL (low density lipoprotein) cholesterol and non-HDL cholesterol are calculated by the CardioChek Plus analyzer. • Cholesterol measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders involving excess cholesterol in the blood and lipid and lipoprotein metabolism disorders. • HDL (lipoprotein) measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders (such as diabetes mellitus), atherosclerosis, and various liver and renal diseases. • Triglycerides measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with diabetes mellius, nephrosis, liver obstruction, other diseases involving lipid metabolism or various endocrine disorders. • Glucose measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders including diabetes mellitus, neonatal hypoglycemia, and idiopathic hypoglycemia, and of pancreatic islet cell carcinoma.
Device Description
The CardioChek Plus Test System includes the CardioChek Plus professional analyzer and analyte-specific test strips (PTS Panels eGLU test strips, PTS Panels Glucose test strips and PTS Panels Lipid Panel test strips). The CardioChek Plus Test System is modified in this submission by the addition of the CardioChek ChekMate strips. CardioChek ChekMate strips are dry strips that mimic the use of the PTS PANELS test strips to check the CardioChek analyzer system optics, calibration and result handling algorithms. ChekMate strips should not be used as a substitute for liquid quality control materials. There is no change to any of the test strips in any of the above named systems.
More Information

No
The summary describes a portable analyzer and test strip system for quantitative determination of various analytes in blood. It mentions "result handling algorithms" and "system optics, calibration," but there is no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts like image processing, training sets, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML models. The focus is on the analytical performance and stability of the test strips and analyzer.

No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic system used for quantitative determination of various substances in blood, which helps in diagnosis and monitoring, but it does not directly treat or restore health.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "This system is for in vitro diagnostic use only." It also lists the quantitative determination of various substances (glucose, cholesterol, etc.) and their use in the diagnosis and treatment of various disorders.

No

The device description explicitly states it includes a portable analyzer (hardware) and test strips (consumables), in addition to software components.

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

Here's why:

  • Explicit Statement: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states: "This system is for in vitro diagnostic use only."
  • Nature of the Tests: The system performs quantitative determination of analytes (glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides) in biological samples (venous and capillary whole blood). This is a core characteristic of in vitro diagnostics, which are used to examine specimens taken from the human body.
  • Purpose of the Measurements: The intended use describes how the measurements are used in the "diagnosis and treatment" of various diseases and disorders. This aligns with the definition of an IVD, which is used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
