The device description and performance studies focus on chemical reagents and their use with a standard clinical chemistry analyzer. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance evaluation sections. The data analysis methods described (Deming regression, non-parametrical statistics) are standard statistical techniques, not indicative of AI/ML.
No
Explanation: The device is a set of reagents used for in vitro diagnostic measurements of various analytes in serum and urine. It aids in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases by providing quantitative measurements, but it does not directly treat or prevent a disease, injury, or condition in a patient.
Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the measurements provided by these reagents are "used in the diagnosis and treatment of numerous diseases." This directly indicates a diagnostic purpose.
No
The device described is a set of chemical reagents for in vitro diagnostic testing, not a software-only medical device. It is used in conjunction with a clinical chemistry analyzer (hardware).
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that these reagents are for the "quantitative measurement of [analyte] in serum [and/or urine]" and that these measurements are "used in the diagnosis and treatment of numerous diseases". This directly aligns with the definition of an IVD, which is used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
- Device Description: The description further clarifies that these are "test systems for the quantitative measurement of [analytes] in human serum and urine". This confirms they are used to test biological samples.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies described (Method Comparison, Reportable Range, Sensitivity, Interferences, Stability, Precision) are typical studies conducted to validate the performance of an IVD device.
- Predicate Devices: The mention of predicate devices with K numbers indicates that these reagents are being compared to previously cleared IVD devices.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the Medicon Hellas reagents for Albumin, Calcium, Creatinine, Glucose, Direct Bilirubin, Total Bilirubin, and Urea Nitrogen are indeed In Vitro Diagnostic devices.

Device Description
Medicon Hellas Albumin: The BCG method is applied on serum samples, without serum blank. The bi-chromatic photometric determination of albumin is based on albumin binding the anionic dye bromocresol green in mildly acidic pH. The raise in absorbance at 620/750 nm is proportional to the concentration of albumin in the sample. The sample volume used for the assay is 2uL.
Medicon Hellas Calcium: Calcium ions react with Arsenazo III dye in acidic pH, to form a violet complex. The absorbance at 650/750 nm is proportional to the concentration of calcium in serum or urine samples. The analyzer photometer reads the absorbance at time intervals dictated by the method application stored in the analyzer memory, and the change in absorbance is calculated automatically. The sample volume used by the assay is 2uL for serum or urine samples.
Medicon Hellas Creatinine: Creatinine forms a yellow-orange complex with picrate anions in alkaline medium. The rate of change of absorbance of the complex at 505/700 nm is proportional to creatinine concentration in serum or urine samples. The sample volume used by the assay is 22uL for serum and urine samples.
Medicon Hellas Glucose: Glucose (Hexokinase) The determination of glucose is according to the hexokinase method based on the following reactions using 2uL of sample for serum and urine samples. The concentration of glucose is determined bi-chromatically by the absorbance change at 340/380 nm. Hexokinase Glucose + ATP 6-phosphate glucose + ADP 6-phosphate glucose + NAD
Medicon Hellas Direct Bilirubin: The modified Malloy-Evelyn method is applied on serum samples. Direct (conjugated) bilirubin reacts with diazotised sulfanilic acid in acidic pH to form azobilirubin, a colored chromophore. The absorbance of chromophore at 550/650 nm is proportional to the concentration of direct bilirubin in the sample. The free (unbound) bilirubin fraction does not react. The reaction is an end-point type. The sample volume used by the assay is 8uL.
Medicon Hellas Total Bilirubin: The DPD method is applied, whereby 3,5-dichlorophenyldiazonium tetrafluoroborate (DPD) binds directly to total bilirubin in acidic medium, forming azobilirubin, whose rate of absorbance at 550/700 nm is proportional to the concentration of total bilirubin in serum samples. The analyzer photometer reads the absorbance at time intervals dictated by the method application stored in the analyzer memory, and the change in absorbance is calculated automatically. The sample volume used by the assay is 20uL.
Medicon Hellas Urea Nitrogen: Medicon Hellas Urea Nitrogen is an in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative determination of urea nitrogen in human serum and urine. Urea Nitrogen is determined according to the following reactions, using 7uL of sample for serum and urine samples: Urease Urea Nitrogen + H2O ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ 2NH3 + CO2 GLDH 2NH4+ + 2-a-Ketoglutarate + 2NADH -2-L-Glutamate + 2NAD+ 2H2O 1 The rate of absorbance change at 340/380 nm is proportional to the urea nitrogen concentration in the sample. For all assays the analyzer photometer reads the absorbances at time intervals dictated by the method application stored in the analyzer memory, and the change in absorbance is calculated automatically.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Method Comparison: Accuracy testing was run simultaneously in blind fashion with the candidate and predicate devices. A minimum of 70 clinical specimens, spanning the dynamic ranges, were assayed in singleton and in a blinded fashion on at least three lots of each candidate system and on a representative lot of each predicate device. Results were tabulated and evaluated using Analyse-it software to generate Deming regression statistics. Key Results: Accuracy studies completed on at least three lots of each candidate reagent confirm that Medicon albumin, calcium, creatinine, glucose, total bilirubin and urea nitrogen are substantially equivalent to the related predicate devices - Beckman Coulter AU reagents used on the AU2700 analyzer. Medicon direct bilirubin reagent used with a Diatron Pictus 500 analyzer is substantially equivalent to its predicate device - Abbott Architect c8000 direct bilirubin used with the Architect c8000 analyzer.
Reportable Range (Linearity): Statistical analysis is performed at a 5% level of significance and the evaluation is according to CLSI EP06-A. At least nine levels of each sample type were tested with at least three lots of the corresponding Medicon reagents. The samples were assigned their reference values arithmetically from serial dilutions of the high-level sample. Each level was tested N=4 on the Pictus P500. Results from each level were averaged. All statistics were calculated using Analyse-it Software. Key Results: The combined data from various lots of each of the Medicon candidate reagents used with the Pictus 500 chemistry analyzers met statistical acceptance criteria. Reportable ranges were comparable to the predicate device reportable ranges.
Sensitivity (LOD/LOQ): Medicon completed sensitivity studies following CLSI EP17-A2. LoB was calculated using non-parametrical statistics and LoD was calculated from LoB following equation LoD = LoB+1.654*SD. LoB/LoD were determined using: 5 Blank samples and 5 Low Levels samples respectively which were measured 4 times each day for a total of 60 measurements in 3 days. LoQ: 10 samples that span the low end of linearity were measured 5 times each day for a total of 150 measurements in 3 days. LoQ was calculated until a specific concentration generated a CV of

807.92 (b)(1,2): Brief Description of Nonclinical and Clinical Data
Medicon Hellas (Medicon) has performed a series of studies to confirm the substantial equivalence of their test systems to the predicate devices. Results from each candidate test system were found to be substantially equivalent to their related predicate device. The predicate device used for Medicon Albumin, Medicon Calcium, Medicon Creatinine, Medicon Total Bilirubin and Medicon Urea Nitrogen (BUN) was the Beckman Coulter (BC) AU 2700 analyzer using the corresponding AU reagents. The predicate device for Medicon Direct Bilirubin was the Abbott Diagnostics Architect c8000 analyzer using its corresponding reagent.
Two to three lots of each candidate device were used for the studies. Testing confirmed equivalent performance of the candidate systems to the corresponding predicate devices.
Studies included accuracy (method comparison), reportable range (linearity), sensitivity (limit of quantification), precision including: repeatability, within run, between run and within lab (total), interfering endogenous and exogenous substances, reagent on-board stability and calibration frequency. The following provide performance summary information from the studies for each candidate reagent. The following summarize the type and scope of testing completed for each candidate device. Following this section, the data for each of the candidate devices is provided.
Method Comparison- The protocol followed was according to CLSI EP09c: accuracy testing was run simultaneously in blind fashion with the candidate and the predicate devices. A minimum of 70 clinical specimens, spanning the dynamic ranges, were assayed in singleton and in a blinded fashion on the at least three lots of each candidate system and on a representative lot of each predicate device. Results were tabulated and evaluated using Analyse-it software to generate Deming regression statistics.
Summary: Accuracy studies completed on at least three lots of each candidate reagent confirm that Medicon albumin, calcium, creatinine, glucose, total bilirubin and urea nitrogen are substantially equivalent to the related predicate devices - Beckman Coulter AU reagents used on the AU2700 analyzer. Medicon direct bilirubin reagent used with a Diatron Pictus 500 analyzer is substantially equivalent to its predicate device - Abbott Architect c8000 direct bilirubin used with the Architect c8000 analyzer.
Reportable Range - Linearity - Statistical analysis is performed at a 5% level of significance and the evaluation is according to CLSI EP06-A. At least nine levels of each sample types were tested with at least three lots of the corresponding Medicon reagents. The samples were assigned their reference values arithmetically from serial dilutions of the high-level sample. Each level was tested N=4 on the Pictus P500. results from each level were averaged. All statistics were calculated using Analyse-it Software.
Summary: the combined data from various lots of each of the Medicon candidate reagents used with the Pictus 500 chemistry analyzers met statistical acceptance criteria. Reportable ranges were comparable to the predicate device reportable ranges.
