AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the provided text, focusing on the acceptance criteria and the studies conducted to meet them for the Total Bilirubin (T BIL) device.

Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Criteria CategoryAcceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Linearity/Reportable RangeDeviation from linearity less than 5% across the analytical range.Linear regression correlation (r) = 0.9999 for the range 0.21 – 26.3 mg/dL. The reported range is 0.21 – 26.3 mg/dL. (Implies linearity within this range was met).
Limit of Detection (LoD)Not explicitly stated as an acceptance criterion for the study, but determined.LoD = 0.08 mg/dL (based on 240 determinations, 4 low-level samples).
Limit of Blank (LoB)Not explicitly stated as an acceptance criterion for the study, but determined.LoB = 0.06 mg/dL.
Limit of Quantitation (LoQ)Not explicitly stated as an acceptance criterion for the study, but determined.LoQ = 0.21 mg/dL (lowest concentration at which precision is still met).
Analytical Specificity (Interference)Recovery within ±10% of the initial value of Total Bilirubin concentration (0.99 mg/dL and 15.03 mg/dL) for specified interferents.Haemoglobin: No significant interference up to 1000 mg/dL. Triglycerides: No significant interference up to 2000 mg/dL. Intralipid®: No significant interference up to 1000 mg/dL. Ascorbic Acid: No significant interference up to 25.0 mg/dL. (All met the ±10% recovery implicitly).
Method Comparison (with predicate device)Not explicitly stated as an acceptance criterion (e.g., a specific agreement or bias limit), but "substantial equivalence" is the overall goal.Linear regression equation: Y = 1.02x - 0.02. Correlation coefficient (r) = 0.9999. (This high correlation supports substantial equivalence).
Matrix Comparison (Serum vs. Plasma)Not explicitly stated as an acceptance criterion, but the goal is for method accuracy with plasma to be equivalent to serum and no interference.Linear regression equation: Y = 0.99x + 0.04. Correlation coefficient (r) = 0.9999. (This high correlation suggests equivalence).
Expected/Reference ValuesVerified using NCCLS C28-A3 guidelines; all values from 30 normal donors fall within the quoted range for healthy individuals (0.3 – 1.2 mg/dL).All values from the 30 normal donors tested on the RX Daytona plus fell within the quoted ranges for Healthy Individuals (0.3 – 1.2 mg/dL).
Precision/ReproducibilityNot explicitly stated as an acceptance criterion (e.g., a maximum CV%), but detailed results are provided.See Table 2 (page 6) for detailed SD and CV values across different concentrations for Within Run, Among Run, Among Day, and Total precision. For example, for a mean of 25.0 mg/dL, Total CV was 1.7%; for 0.3 mg/dL, Total CV was 7.4%. These values are typically considered acceptable for clinical assays.

Study Details

  1. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

    • Precision/Reproducibility: 80 determinations per sample type (LIN Pool, LOQ Pool, QC 1, QC 2, Serum Pool 1-4) across two lots, two RX Daytona plus systems, over 20 non-consecutive days with 2 replicates per run. Data provenance is not specified, but the study design suggests prospective testing of control materials and human serum samples (spiked or diluted).
    • Linearity/Assay Reportable Range: 11 levels, each run in replicates of five across two lots of reagent on one RX Daytona plus system. Data provenance is not specified.
    • Detection Limit: 240 determinations (for LoD) using 4 low-level samples. Data provenance is not specified.
    • Analytical Specificity (Interference): Not explicitly stated how many samples or replicates per interferent. Samples were spiked with interferents and compared to control samples. Data provenance is not specified.
    • Method Comparison: 106 serum patient samples spanning 0.21 to 26.9 mg/dL. Data provenance is not specified, but these are "patient samples," suggesting retrospective or prospective clinical samples.
    • Matrix Comparison: A minimum of 40 matched patient sample pairs (serum and lithium heparin plasma). Data provenance is not specified, but these are "patient samples," suggesting retrospective or prospective clinical samples.
    • Expected values/Reference range: Human serum from 30 normal donors. Data provenance is not specified. The study was prospective in nature, testing new samples.
  2. 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)

    • This is an in vitro diagnostic device for quantitative chemical analysis. The "ground truth" is established by the analytical reference methods or established values of control materials, or comparison to a predicate device. There is no mention of human experts defining ground truth through consensus in the way a radiological study might. For the method comparison, the predicate device (Siemens Healthcare Diagnostic Inc, Total Bilirubin 2 reagent, K063845) serves as the reference, which itself would have undergone rigorous analytical validation.
  3. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

    • Not applicable. This is an analytical chemistry device, not an imaging device requiring human adjudicated interpretations. The performance is assessed by quantitative analytical metrics.
  4. 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

    • Not applicable. This is an analytical chemistry device, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool involving human readers.
  5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

    • This is an in vitro diagnostic assay, which by nature operates "standalone" in terms of measurement. The results are then interpreted by a clinician, but the device itself generates a quantitative result without human-in-the-loop performance influencing the measurement. Performance studies like precision, linearity, and analytical specificity are inherently "standalone" evaluations of the device's analytical function.
  6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

    • Reference Methods/Materials: For linearity and precision, the ground truth is based on gravimetrically prepared samples, known concentrations of control materials, or dilutions with expected values.
    • Predicate Device: For method comparison, the results from the legally marketed predicate device (Siemens Healthcare Diagnostic Inc, Total Bilirubin 2 reagent, K063845) serve as the comparative ground truth.
    • Literature/Guidelines: For reference range verification, established normal ranges from scientific literature (e.g., "Tietz Clinical Guide to laboratory Tests") and guidelines (NCCLS C28-A3) are used.
  7. The sample size for the training set

    • Not applicable. This is an analytical chemistry device, not a machine learning model that requires a training set.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established

    • Not applicable, as there is no training set for this type of device.

8. TEST PRINCIPLE (1)

The bilirubin is oxidised by vanadate at about pH 2.9 to produce biliverdin. In the presence of detergent and vanadate, both coniugate (direct) and unconiuqated bilirubin are oxidised. This oxidation reaction causes a decrease in the optical density of the yellow colour, which is specific to bilirubin. The decrease in optical density at 450/546 nm is proportional to the total bilirubin concentration in the sample. The concentration is measured as an endpoint reaction.

9. PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS

Analytical performance:

a. Precision/Reproducibility:

Precision was evaluated consistent with C.L.S.I documents EP5-A2 Precision studies were performed by two operators on two RX Daytona plus systems using serum based control material and unaltered human serum samples that were spiked with unconjugated Bilirubin or diluted to achieve Total Bilirubin concentrations based on normal ranges 0.3 - 1.2 mg/dL. Testing was conducted for two reagent lots of Total Bilirubin, one lot on each RX Daytona plus system, twice per day for 20 non-consecutive days. Two replicates per run were performed for each sample. The assay was calibrated initially with no further calibration required. The results are summarized in the following tables.

b. Linearity/assay reportable range:

Linearity studies have been carried out in accordance with C.L.S.I. standard EP6-A. Linearity studies were performed at 11 levels to determine the analytical range of an assay - that is the range where the reported result is a linear function to the analyte concentration (or where deviation from linearity is less than 5%).

The linearity samples were prepared at 11 levels. The sponsor set a range from 0.21 mg/dl analyte concentration up to a high concentration approximately 26.3 mg/dl using low and high serum pools. The low and high pools were mixed to make nine intermediate levels. Each level was run in replicates of five on two lots of Total Bilirubin reagent on one RX Daytona plus system. The observed values were compared to the expected values; the linear regression correlation between the expected values and the observed values are summarized in the following table:

Linear Regression$Y = 1.02 + 0.01$
r0.9999
AnalyteLinearityReportable Range
TBIL26.3 mg/dl0.21 – 26.3 mg/dl

The low end of the reportable assay range is based on the Limit of Quantitation. The high end of the reportable assay range is based on the linearity. The Rx Davtona Plus analyzer has an auto-dilution feature that is automatically activated when measuring samples >26.3 mg/dL, which are diluted and remeasured to obtain values within the measuring range.

c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):

Refer to K942458 Randox Assayed Multisera Level 2 and Level 3.

Refer to K053153 Randox Calibration Serum Level 3.

Randox Calibration Serum Level 3 for Total Bilirubin is traceable to an internal master reference material.

{8}------------------------------------------------

d. Detection limit:

Sensitivity studies have been carried out in accordance with C.L.S.I. guideline EP17-A2 'Evaluation of detection capability for clinical laboratory measurement procedures: Approved Guideline Second Edition'. A Limit of Blank (L.o.B.), a Limit of Detection (L.o.D.) and a Limit of Quantification were performed on two lots of reagents tested by two operators on one RX Daytona Plus system.

The Limit of Detection (LoD) for Total Bilirubin on the RX Daytona Plus is 0.08 mg/dL based on 240 determinations, with 4 low level samples.

The Limit of Blank (LoB) is 0.06 mg/dL.

The Limit of Quantitation (LoQ) is 0.21 mg/dL as determined by the lowest concentration at which precision is still met.

e. Analytical Specificity:

Interference studies have been carried out in accordance with C.L.S.I. guideline EP7-A2 'Interference testing in clinical chemistry; Approved Guideline Second Edition' The effects of potential interferents were determined by calculating the mean value of the spiked interferent with the corresponding control solution. The spiked sample results were compared to control samples prepared without the potential interferents.

Acceptance Criteria:

The criteria for no significant interference is recovery within ±10% of the initial value of Total Bilirubin concentration of 0.99 mg/dL and 15.03 mg/dL

HaemoglobinNo significant interference up to 1000mg/dL
TriglyceridesNo significant interference up to 2000mg/dL
Intralipid®No significant interference up to 1000mg/dL
Ascorbic AcidNo significant interference up to 25.0mg/dL

f. Method comparison with predicate device:

Correlation studies were carried out in accordance with C.L.S.I. guideline EP9-A2 'Method Comparison and Bias Estimation Using Patient Samples: Approved Guideline - Second Edition'.

106 serum patient samples spanning the range 0.21 to 26.9 mg/dL were tested by two operators on two lots of Total Bilirubin reagent on one RX Daytona plus analyzer and the predicate device tested on one ADVIA 1650 system across 3 working days with each sample tested in singlicate.

{9}------------------------------------------------

The test method was compared to the predicate device and the following linear regression equation was obtained:

Y = 1.02x - 0.02 Correlation coefficient of r = 0.9999

q. Matrix comparison:

Matrix method comparisons for Total Bilirubin assay was tested by one operator on one RX Daytona plus system and was assessed for two lots of reagents. Both serum and lithium heparin plasma were tested to determine whether method accuracy with plasma specimens are equivalent to serum results and that lithium heparin plasma does not interfere with either the method or the system.

Total Bilirubin matrix comparison on the RX Daytona plus (Lithium Heparin)

Patient samples were drawn in matched pairs - one sample serum (x) and the second sample lithium heparin plasma (y). A minimum of 40 matched patient sample pairs were analyzed spanning the 0.23 to 23.5 mg/dl and the following linear regression equation was obtained:

Y = 0.99x + 0.04

Correlation coefficient of r = 0.9999

Expected values/Reference range:

Referenced from literature

A reference interval for Total Bilirubin was verified using NCCLS C28-A3 guidelines. In a study, human serum from 30 normal donors were tested in singlicate on the RX daytona plus. The results obtained were ordered from lowest to highest before being examined for outliers using the Dixon test.

Upon confirmation there were no outliers; the values were compared to the quoted ranges for Total Bilirubin. Results of the study indicate that all values reported in the range for Healthy Individuals.
