Device Description

The EDAN i15 Blood Gas and Chemistry Analysis System, including the Blood Gas and Chemistry Analyzer, Calibrant Fluid Pack, Test Cartridge, and Quality Controls) is a system for in-vitro analysis of whole blood, delivering quantitative results for panels of tests determined by the Test Cartridge type used in the measurement. The Analyzer incorporates a large graphical user interface with a large color touch screen interfacing the analyzer electronic, Test Cartridge (containing the sensors) and Calibrant Fluid Pack. The sensors, flow path and waste are integrated into a single-use Test Cartridge. The calibration solution is contained in the Calibrant Fluid Pack which is available in versions for 50 or 100 tests. The product, consumables, installation instructions and packaging are designed for easy customer installation and operation.

The EDAN i15 Analyzer accepts lithium- or calcium-balanced heparinized whole blood samples from syringes and capillary tube. The minimum volume for samples from both syringe and capillary tube is 140 µL.

As with the predicate device, the EDAN i15 Blood Gas and Chemistry Analysis System is microprocessor-based and incorporates traditional sensor technology for measurement.

  • pH, pCO2, Na*, K*, Cl , and Ca** (potentiometric measurement) .
  • pO2 (amperometric measurement)
  • Hct (conductivity measurement) ●

The Test Cartridge is available in three (3) versions, with different test panels, but with identical sample paths and calibration fluid:
BG8: pH, pCO2, pO2, Na+, K+, Cl-, Ca++, Hct
BG3: pH, pCO2, pO2
BC4: Na+, K+, Cl-, Ca++, Hct

The Test Cartridge aspirates the sample directly from a syringe, or capillary fitted with an adaptor, and requires a minimum sample volume of 140 µL.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

  • Linearity Studies: 7 levels of modified whole blood samples were used for each measurand. The data provenance is "Whole, venous blood samples collected from healthy volunteers" and samples were modified to achieve different concentration levels.
  • Imprecision in External Controls: 80 replicates for each level of blood gas and electrolyte control, and 80 replicates for each level of hematocrit control.
  • Precision in Whole Blood (Hct): 6 levels, with 10 replicates per level on 3 analyzers (total 30 results per level), from "heparinized venous whole blood samples collected from eight volunteers".
  • Precision in Whole Blood (Other analytes): 3 levels (implicitly, as 3 healthy volunteers mentioned), each run in 10 replicates on each of 3 analyzers (total 30 results). Samples were "venous whole blood collected from 3 healthy volunteers".
  • Comparison of Syringe and Capillary Measurement: 180 samples (derived from 6 levels of blood, each with 10 replicates on 3 instruments), using "Whole blood venous samples from healthy volunteers".
  • Specificity / Interference Testing: 7 replicates of both spiked and unspiked samples were tested.
  • Method Comparison: 488 (pH), 483 (pCO2), 486 (pO2), 486 (Na+), 487 (K+), 484 (Cl-), 485 (Ca++), 487 (Hct) patient samples from 4 Point-of-Care (POC) sites and 3 laboratory sites. Samples were "discarded patient samples collected into either B-D Vacutainer lithium heparin tubes or B-D balanced heparin arterial sampling syringes". This indicates retrospective data. Data provenance (country of origin) is not explicitly stated.
  • Determination of Detection Limits for ionized Calcium: 120 measurements for LoB, and 120 measurements for LoD and LoQ, using zero-level and low-level whole blood samples.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

The document primarily relies on comparisons to reference methods or predicate devices to establish ground truth for the performance of the EDAN i15 system.

  • Linearity studies: Ground truth for linearity was established by various reference methods or comparative measurements:
    • Electrolyte values: "compared to those calculated from serial dilution of high and low concentration blood samples".
    • pCO2 and pO2: "against those determined by tonometry".
    • pH: "compared against parallel measurement on a Radiometer ABL 800".
    • Hematocrit: "compared the PCV% obtained by microhematocrit centrifuge". These are technical reference standards, not human experts.
  • Method Comparison: The predicate device, Siemens RapidPoint 400 System, was used as the comparator for patient samples. The quality control materials used (RNA Medical QC823 and QC900) also have assigned values. These are established reference methods and devices, not human subject matter experts.
  • Clinical Site Testing: The study involved "11 persons fulfilling the minimum requirements for education and training to perform moderately complex testing in accordance with CLIA." These are operators, not experts establishing ground truth via consensus.

Therefore, no information on human experts establishing the ground truth for the test set using a consensus approach is provided; instead, instrumental or established reference methods/devices were used.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

No information on an adjudication method involving multiple readers or experts is provided in the document. The ground truth was established by comparison to reference methods or a predicate device.

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

No multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done. This document describes the performance of a blood gas and chemistry analysis system, which is an automated device, not an AI-assisted diagnostic imaging tool that would typically involve human readers.

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

Yes, the device evaluated is a standalone automated blood gas and chemistry analysis system (EDAN i15). The performance metrics provided (linearity, imprecision, interference, method comparison) are indicative of the algorithm's (device's) performance without human interpretation or intervention in the measurement process itself, beyond sample introduction and operation.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

The ground truth used was based on:

  • Reference Methods/Standards: For linearity, this included calculations from serial dilution, tonometry for blood gases, measurement by Radiometer ABL 800 for pH, and microhematocrit centrifuge for Hct.
  • Predicate Device: For method comparison, the Siemens RapidPoint 400 System was used as the comparator, representing an established and cleared device.
  • Assayed Control Materials: For imprecision studies, external quality control materials (EDAN i15 Blood Gas and Electrolyte Control and EDAN i15 Hematocrit Control) with assigned values were used.

8. The sample size for the training set

The document does not explicitly state a "training set" size. As this is a medical device for in-vitro diagnostics and not a machine learning algorithm that undergoes traditional "training," the concept of a training set in the AI sense does not directly apply. The development of such a device involves internal verification and validation, but specific "training set" details are not provided in this regulatory summary.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

As noted in point 8, the concept of a "training set" in the AI sense is not directly applicable here. The device's performance characteristics (e.g., calibration, measurement principles, stability) are established through rigorous engineering, chemical, and biological testing during its development and validation. The "ground truth" for the device's operational parameters and calibration solutions (e.g., Calibrant Fluid Pack) is established by using primary and secondary standards traceable to NIST or other recognized standards (as detailed in the "Traceability" section, page 23). For the EDAN i15 Controls, value assignment is performed by parallel testing against existing, validated lots and applying bias to determine acceptable ranges (page 24-25).

a. Linearity Studies

Whole, venous blood samples collected from healthy volunteers in vacuum blood collection tubes with lithium heparin were modified to obtain a range of values for each measurand approaching their analytical measurement range by the addition of isotonic electrolyte solution for electrolytes, tonometry with various gas mixtures for blood gases and pH, and by mixing with erythrocyte concentrated for depleted plasma to obtain an range of hematocrit. Criteria for acceptance is a slope between 0.95 and 1.05 and r-value ≥ 0.975. Electrolyte values were compared to those calculated from serial dilution of high and low concentration blood samples, pO2 and pCO2 against those determined by tonometry, pH was compared against parallel measurement on a Radiometer ABL 800, while hematocrit was compared the PCV% obtained by microhematocrit centrifuge. The evaluation demonstrated equivalent, linear performance over the analytical measurement range for all measurands in samples from syringes and from glass capillary tubes.

NOTES:

The addition of 50,000 WBC cu/mL to a blood sample with 6.1 x 10° WBC cu/mL causes an increase in Hct %PCV measured by the EDAN i15 relative to spun hematocrit %PCV by 4.43 %PCV (absolute) or 11% (relative) exceeding the Total Allowable Error defined in CLIA'88.

Hemolysis will increase the potassium measurement on i15 system due to release of potassium from the red blood cells. When the amount of hemoglobin in plasma is increased by 500 mg/dL, the increase in K+ measurement tested on i15 system is about 36%; when the amount of hemoglobin in plasma is increased by 100 mg/dL, the increase in K+ measurement tested on i15 system is about 29%.

  • f. Determination of Detection Limits for ionized Calcium
    Detection limits were determined by obtaining the standard deviation of sample measurements from repeated measurements of samples with a relevant low concentration. To determine LoB, zero level samples were prepared and measured on two EDAN i15 instruments with different lots of Test Cartridges and Calibrator Fluid Packs to obtain blank measurements (N=120). To determine the LoD and LoQ, whole blood samples with low levels of analyte (approximately 1 to 4 x LoB) were measured on two instruments (N=120). The LoQ was determined based on the inter-assay precision (%CV). The limit of quantitation (LoQ) is based on an accuracy goal of 0.125 mmol/L. The accuracy goal was met and therefore, the LoQ is equal to the LoD of 0.11 mmol/L. Results of the study are presented in the following table:

Summary of Clinical Site Testing

Studies were conducted at 4 Point-of-Care (POC) sites and 3 laboratory sites to demonstrate equivalence of performance of the EDAN i15 System in comparison to previously cleared test systems cleared for the same intended use. The POC sites included a respiratory medical care unit, two medical intensive care units, an anesthesia unit and a rapid-response (STAT) lab, and employed tested by 11 persons fulfilling the minimum requirements for education and training to perform moderately complex testing in accordance with CLIA. Of these 11 persons, 10 had no prior blood gas testing experience. All testing was performed using quality control materials or discarded blood gas specimens.

  • a. Imprecision/Reproducibility in Aqueous Quality Control Materials
    Each clinical site used to collect method comparison data, performed analysis of quality control (Blood Gas and Electrolyte Controls, and Hematocrit Controls) at the beginning and end of each testing day. The summary of imprecision from each site is provided in the table, below and demonstrate equivalence between POC and Laboratory test sites.

b. Method Comparison

In seven clinical sites (four POC and three laboratory) used for the evaluation of bias on patient samples, the protocol in CLSI Document EP09-A3 Method Comparison and Bias Estimation Using Patient Samples was applied in which each sample was measured in duplicate on both the EDAN i15 and its predicate device. All testing was performed using discarded patient samples collected into either B-D Vacutainer lithium heparin tubes or B-D balanced heparin arterial sampling syringes. Four POC sites and all LAB sites utilized the RapidPoint 400 as the comparator device and are combined for presentation below. Up to 4 data pairs for a single measurand were eliminated from this method comparison because values were outside claimed measurement range.

Stability and Value Assignment for Controls and Calibrant Fluid Pack

Stability / Shelf Life:

  • . EDAN i15 Calibrant Fluid Pack – 12 month shelf-life when stored unopened at 2-8°C (35-46°F) (avoid freezing) and 30 days after installation on the instrument or until expiration date is reached.
  • . EDAN i15 Blood Gas and Electrolyte Controls - 36 months when stored at 2-8°C (35-46°F) (avoid freezing) including up to 9 months at 2-25°C (35-77°C) or until expiration date is reached.
  • EDAN i15 Hematocrit Controls – 24 months when stored at 2-25°C (35-77°C) or until expiration date is reached.

Value Assignment

  • EDAN i15 Calibrant Fluid Pack
    Value assignment of the Calibrant Fluid Pack is performed by determination of measurement bias between the test lot and traceable reference standards or methods using reference instrumentation and three Calibrant Fluid Packs from the production batch. The bias for each measurand is applied to the value of the reference standard to determine the value assignment for the test lot.

NOTE: These values are for example only. Actual values for each parameter are programmed in the bar code of a Calibrant Fluid Pack and may vary with the lot number of a Calibrant Fluid Pack.

● EDAN i15 Blood Gas and Electrolyte Control

Value assignment for each new lot of control solution is performed by parallel testing on existing and new lots to determine bias for each measurand. This bias is applied to the value assigned to the existing lot to determine acceptable values for the new lot. Control solution testing is integrated into final release testing for all i15 instruments to ensure consistent performance across Calibrant Fluid Pack and Test Cartridge Lots.
