No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic reagent kit for measuring HDL Cholesterol. The description focuses on the chemical composition of the reagents and standard analytical performance studies. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any computational analysis beyond standard quantitative measurements.
No
Explanation: This device is an in vitro diagnostic device used for the quantitative determination of HDL Cholesterol in serum and plasma, which is for diagnostic purposes, not therapeutic intervention.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "This in vitro diagnostic device is intended for Rx Only." Furthermore, it mentions that the measurements are used "in the diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders (such as diabetes mellitus), atherosclerosis and renal diseases and for the assessment for the risk of developing cardiovascular disease," which are all diagnostic applications.
No
The device is described as a kit assay consisting of ready-to-use reagent solutions, which are chemical components, not software. The performance studies also focus on analytical performance of the chemical reagents.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The document explicitly states "For the quantitative in vitro determination of HDL Cholesterol in serum and plasma." and "This in vitro diagnostic device is intended for Rx Only." This directly aligns with the definition of an IVD, which is a medical device intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens derived from the human body.
- Device Description: The description details a "Direct HDL Cholesterol (HDL) kit assay" consisting of "ready to use reagent solutions." This describes a product designed to perform a diagnostic test on biological samples outside of the body.
- Performance Studies: The document outlines various analytical performance studies (Precision, Linearity, Traceability, Detection limit, Analytical Specificity, Method comparison, Matrix comparison) which are standard evaluations for IVD devices to demonstrate their accuracy and reliability for diagnostic purposes.
- Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device(s)" with a K number (K982341) indicates that this device is being compared to a previously cleared IVD, which is a common regulatory pathway for IVDs.
All these elements strongly indicate that this device is intended for in vitro diagnostic use.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
a. Precision/Reproducibility:
Precision was evaluated consistent with C.L.S.I documents EP5-A2. Studies were performed by two operators on two RX Daytona plus systems using control material and unaltered human serum samples. Testing was conducted for two reagent lots of Direct HDL Cholesterol (HDL), 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 on the first day of the study and no assay re-calibrations were required throughout the duration of the study.

8. TEST PRINCIPLE (1)
The assay consists of 2 distinct reaction steps:
-
- Elimination of chylomicron, VLDL-Cholesterol and LDL-Cholesterol by cholesterol esterase, cholesterol oxidase and subsequently catalase.

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 control material and unaltered human serum samples that were spiked with HDL cholesterol concentrations or diluted to achieve concentrations based on established ranges 129 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 K122126 Direct HDL/LDLCalibrator and K022591 Lipid Controls.
The Direct HDL-C/LDL-C Calibrator is traceable to an internal master reference material. Calibrators are value assigned using one instrument and multiple
9
repetitions. The mean, standard deviation, and % CV are calculated and evaluated against acceptance criteria.
The reagent system has not been tested or certified by the Cholesterol Reference Method Laboratory Network (CRMLN). The labeling contains language that the device has not been certified by the CRMLN.
d. Detection limit:
Sensitivity studies have been carried out in accordance with C.L.S.I. quideline EP17-A2 'Protocols for Determination of Limits of Detection and Limits of Quantification; Approved Guideline'. 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 Davtona Plus system.
The Limit of Detection (LoD) for Direct HDL Cholesterol (HDL) on the RX Daytona Plus is 0.73 mg/dl based on 240 determinations, with 4 low level samples.
The Limit of Blank (LoB) is 0.19 mg/dl.
The Limit of Quantitation (LoQ) is 7.1 mg/dl as determined by the lowest concentration detected with ≤20% imprecision.
e. Analytical Specificity:
Interference studies have been carried out in accordance with C.L.S.I. quideline 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: % of Control ± 10%
The following analytes were tested up to the levels indicated at HDL Cholesterol concentrations of 34.8 mq/dl and 70 mg/dl and found not to interfere:
| Haemoglobin | No significant interference up to 1000mg/dL |
|---|---|
| Total Bilirubin | No significant interference up to 60mg/dL |
| Conjugate Bilirubin | No significant interference up to 60mg/dL |
| Triglycerides | No significant interference up to 500mg/dL |
| Intralipid® | No significant interference up to 2000mg/dL |
| Ascorbic Acid | No significant interference up to 6mg/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'.
103 serum patient samples spanning the range 23 to 118 mg/dl were tested by two operators on two lots of Direct HDL Cholesterol (HDL) reagent on one RX Daytona plus analyzer and one RX Imola system across 3 working days with each sample tested in singlicate. The test method was compared to the predicate device and the following linear regression equation was obtained:
Y = 1.01x - 0.75 Correlation coefficient of r = 0.994
q. Matrix comparison:
Matrix method comparisons for the Direct HDL Cholesterol (HDL) assay was tested by one operator on one RX Daytona plus system and was assessed for two lots of Direct HDL Cholesterol (HDL) 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.
Direct HDL Cholesterol (HDL) 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). 45 matched patient sample pairs were analyzed spanning the 28 to 106 mg/dl and the following linear regression equation was obtained:
Y = 0.99x + 2.18 Correlation coefficient of r = 0.993
