Intended Use

The OPTI® B-Lac cassette is intended to be used for the in vitro measurement of pH, PO2, total hemoglobin (tHb), and % Saturated O2 in sodium heparinized venous blood samples on the OPTI CCA-TS and OPTI CCA-TS2 platform in a clinical laboratory location.
· Measurements of blood gases (pCO2, pO2) and blood pH are used in the diagnosis and treatment of life-threatening acid-base disturbances.

  • · Total hemoglobin (tHb) measurement is used to determine the hemoglobin content of human blood.
    · Oxygen saturation (SO2) measurement is used to determine the oxygen capacity of the hemoglobin.
Device Description

The OPTI CCA-TS/TS2 are portable devices, microprocessor-based instrument using optical fluorescence for the measurement blood gases, electrolytes and enzymes. The OPTI CCA-TS/TS2 utilize a color, graphical touch screen user interface. A disposable, single-use cassette contains all of the elements needed for calibration, sample measurement, and waste containment. Specific calibration from the cassette is scanned into the analyzer by holding the cassette package in front of the bar code scanner. The cassette is then placed into the measurement chamber. The analyzer warms the cassette to 37.0±0.1°C and performs a calibration verification. When calibration is verified, the analyzer aspirates the blood sample into the cassette and across the optode sensors. Fluorescence emission is then measured after equilibrating with the blood sample. After a single measurement, the cassette containing the blood sample is removed from the analyzer and discarded. The analyzer contains no reagents, blood, or waste. The B-Lac cassette is a disposable, single use cassette that contains four (4) sensors for in vitro quantitative measurements of PO2, PCO2, pH. There is an additional laser based measurement of total hemoglobin (tHb) and SO2. The B-Lac cassette is sealed in a foil pouch along with a desiccant and is marked with a barcode label that includes a lot identification number, calibration information, and expiration date.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

This document describes a medical device for in vitro diagnostic measurements. The "ground truth" for the test set is established by:

  • Reference Methods/Predicate Devices:

    • Gravimetric target for PCO2 and PO2 (based on gas concentration).
    • Predicate device ABL90 Flex for pH, PCO2, PO2, and tHb.
    • E series cassettes on the OPTI CCA-TS/TS2 for SO2.
  • No human "experts" (e.g., radiologists) were involved in establishing the ground truth in the way
    this question implies for imaging or subjective interpretation devices. The ground truth is
    based on established analytical methods and reference instruments.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Not applicable. This device provides quantitative measurements, and ground truth is established by reference methods/instruments, not through expert consensus requiring adjudication.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

No. This document does not mention any MRMC comparative effectiveness study where human readers improve with or without AI assistance. This device is an in vitro diagnostic instrument, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for human interpretation.

6. Standalone Performance (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance)

Yes, the studies described are of standalone performance of the device (OPTI® B-Lac Cassette on OPTI CCA-TS/TS2 platforms). The measurements are performed automatically by the instrument and its embedded algorithms. There is no human-in-the-loop performance described or implied for the measurement process itself, although clinical interpretation of the results by healthcare professionals would follow.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth used for performance evaluation includes:

  • Gravimetric targets: For PCO2 and PO2 (based on gas concentration for tonometered samples).
  • Predicate device measurements: Measurements from the Radiometer ABL90 Flex for pH, PCO2, PO2, tHb, and from the OPTI CCA TS2 E-Series Cassettes for SO2.
  • Aqueous quality control solutions and manipulated whole blood samples: Used for precision and linearity studies, where the expected values are known or derived from previous characterization.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not explicitly mention a "training set" in the context of machine learning. The device utilizes "new algorithms utilized to calculate concentrations for these sensors" (specifically for PCO2) and has updated software. However, the data sets described are for performance verification and validation, not for training a new algorithm from scratch in the classical AI sense. If there was an internal dataset used for algorithm development or "training" (e.g., to derive calibration curves or correction factors), that information is not provided. The described studies are primarily for demonstrating post-development performance.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established

As no specific "training set" is described for algorithm development, the method of establishing ground truth for such a set is not provided. The document focuses on the verification and validation of the device's performance against established clinical and analytical standards.

1. REASON FOR SUBMISSION

The purpose of this submission is to provide data to demonstrate that the new B-Lac cassette design meets the performance claims included in the previous submission referenced above and that it is substantially equivalent to the referenced predicate device. This submission includes changes to the PCO2 sensor as well as the new algorithms utilized to calculate concentrations for these sensors. No changes have been made to the pH or PQ2 sensors or the measurement of tHb or SO2(Saturated Oxygen). In addition, changes to the software that were made to the OPTI CCA-TS (K984299) and CCA-TS2 (K131126), referred to as OPTI CCA-TS/TS2, to implement the algorithms for the PCO2, sensors are documented.

2. DEVICE DESCRIPTION

2.1. OPTI CCA-TS and OPTI CCA-TS2 Instruments

The OPTI CCA-TS/TS2 are portable devices, microprocessor-based instrument using optical fluorescence for the measurement blood gases, electrolytes and enzymes. The OPTI CCA-TS/TS2utilize a color, graphical touch screen user interface.

A disposable, single-use cassette contains all of the elements needed for calibration, sample measurement, and waste containment. Specific calibration from the cassette is scanned into the analyzer by holding the cassette package in front of the bar code scanner. The cassette is then placed into the measurement chamber.

The analyzer warms the cassette to 37.0±0.1°C and performs a calibration verification. When calibration is verified, the analyzer aspirates the blood sample into the cassette and across the optode sensors. Fluorescence emission is then measured after equilibrating with the blood sample. After a single measurement, the cassette containing the blood sample is removed from the analyzer and discarded. The analyzer contains no reagents, blood, or waste.

No changes to the OPTI CCA-TS/TS2analyzer's hardware have been made to accommodate the addition of the parameters associated with the B-Lac cassette, thus the electromagnetic compatibility remains unchanged from prior claims of the OPTI CCA-TS. The software driving the analyzer has been updated according to internal design control and verification procedures

{5}------------------------------------------------

of the Quality System at OPTI Medical Systems, Inc. to accommodate the addition of the B-Lac cassette.

2.2. OPTI B-LAC Cassette

The B-Lac cassette is a disposable, single use cassette that contains four (4) sensors for in vitro quantitative measurements of PO2, PCO2, pH. There is an additional laser based measurement of total hemoglobin (tHb) and SO2. The B-Lac cassette is sealed in a foil pouch along with a desiccant and is marked with a barcode label that includes a lot identification number, calibration information, and expiration date.

2.2.1. Principle of Measurement

The B-Lac cassette uses fluorescence optodes to measure the intensity of light emitted from fluorescent dyes exposed to specific analytes. The concentration of the analyte is determined by the calculation of the difference in fluorescence measured at a defined calibration point and that measured with the unknown concentration of analyte. The principles of measurement of PO2, PCO2 and pH for the B-Lac cassette are similar to those used with existing cassette styles that are used on the OPTI CCA-TS/TS2.

2.2.2. Calibration

Each lot of B-Lac cassettes is calibrated during the manufacturing process. The process utilizes multi-levels of high precision standard solutions spanning the operating range for pH_. For O2 and CO2 the calibration parameters are determined using specially targeted calibration standards focusing on the clinically critical ranges. Every cassette package has a bar code label containing this calibration information as well as its lot number and expiration date. A onepoint calibration is performed each time a cassette is used. The B-Lac cassette uses a proprietary dry-calibration for the pH sensor. For the Blood Gas sensors PO2 and PCO2, a precision gas mixture similar to that used by conventional blood analyzers is used. The calibration for the tHb and SO2 measurements is factory set for each analyzer.

During the calibration and measurement processes, diagnostic tests are automatically performed to assure correct operation of the instrument and measurement of the cassette. These tests include automatic checks of the cassette for packaging integrity, proper cassette

{6}------------------------------------------------

temperature control, and proper equilibration behavior of the sensors during calibration and measurement, automatic detection of bubbles and short sample during aspiration, and automatic detection of dirty optics.

Three levels of standard control solutions (OPTI Check Level 1, 2 and 3) are supplied by Bionostics Inc., of Acton Massachusetts. Each level of control solution contains a different concentration of PO2, PCO2, pH, K, Na, Ca, Cl.

3. INDICATIONS FOR USE

The OPTI® B-Lac cassette is intended to be used for the in vitro measurement of pH, PO2, PCO2, , total hemoglobin (tHb), and % Saturated O2 in sodium heparinized venous blood samples on the OPTI CCA-TS and OPTI CCA-TS2 platform in a clinical laboratory location.

  • Measurements of blood gases (pCO2, pO2) and blood pH are used in the diagnosis and ● treatment of life-threatening acid-base disturbances.
  • Total hemoglobin (tHb) measurement is used to determine the hemoglobin content of human blood.
  • Oxygen saturation (SO2) measurement is used to determine the oxygen capacity of the hemoglobin.

4. TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The primary technological characteristics and intended use of the OPTI® B-Lac Cassette used with the OPTI CCA-TS/TS2 Analyzers are substantially equivalent to other legally marketed devices used for the quantitative measurement of blood gases, pH, and metabolites (lactate).

As indicated in Table 1 the OPTI B-Lac Cassette is substantially equivalent to significant characteristics of the identified predicate device, the Radiometer ABL90 Flex (K092686) and the OPTI CCA TS2 E-Series Cassettes (K131126).

The results were compared to the gravimetric target for PCO2 and PO2 based on the gas concentration and to the predicate device ABL90 Flex for pH, PCO2 , PQ2, and tHb and the E series cassettes on the OPTI CCA-TS/TS2 for SO2. The performance of the redesigned B-Lac cassette was determined to meet the performance claims included in the previous 510(K) submission K093280 for all analytes.

4.1.5. OPTI Medical B-Lac – In-House Interference Testing

Interference testing was performed for the PCO2, PCO2, ph, sensors and measured tHb and SO2 for the B-Lac cassette following the CLSI guideline EP07-A, volume 22, Number 27 (2002). In all 16 interferents were tested for PCO2, PCO2, ph, tHb, and SQ2. There were several interferents found for tHb, and SO2, no interferents for PCO2 and only one interferent for PO2 and pH.

Altitude testing 4.1.6.

To evaluate the performance of the B-Lac cassette PCO2, PO2, pH, sensors at a range of altitudes, method comparison studies were performed on whole blood and ampuled aqueous control materials at the following sites:

  • Westbrook, Maine, USA, 75 feet (Aqueous) .
  • Roswell, Georgia, USA, 1080 feet (Aqueous and Whole Blood) .
  • Beech Mountain, North Caroling, USA, 5560 feet (Aqueous) .
  • Leadville, Colorado, USA, 10151 feet (Aqueous and Whole Blood) .

Testing for the B-Lac cassette was performed on the OPTI CCA TS and OPTI CCA-TS platforms against the predicate device (ABL90 Flex - K092686) for whole blood. Whole blood samples were tonometered to obtain samples that span the range for PCO2, PO2, and pH, and spiked or diluted for tHb at both 1180 ft. and 10,151 ft. Aqueous solutions were measured for PCO2, pH, tHb and Saturate O2 at all sites and the results compared to the reference site in Roswell, Georgia. Analysis of the data for linearity and bias at the critical limits was calculated. The performance of the B-Lac cassette with redesigned PCO2 sensors was demonstrated to meet the performance claims included in the previous 510(K) submission K093280 when tested with whole blood samples at 1180 feet and 10151 feet (PCO2, PO2, pH, tHb) and aqueous samples at all altitudes tested (PCO2, PO2, pH, tHb, and SO2).

4.1.7. OPTI Medical B-Lac – Stability Testing

Stability testing was performed to establish the shelf life for the redesigned B-Lac cassette. The purpose of this test was to collect aqueous control data to evaluate the stability of pH, PO2, PCO2, tHb, and SO2 on the redesigned B-Lac cassette. The redesigned B-Lac cassette includes

improvements to the PCO2 sensors while keeping the pH, PO2, tHb, and SO2 the same. The study includes an evaluation of cassettes that have been subjected to 2 cycles of simulated shipping temperature extremes prior to refrigeration. Three Lots of B-Lac cassettes were tested with one Lot being subjected to two cycles of elevated and frozen temperatures cycles. Performance of the B-Lac cassette has been demonstrated to meet the performance claims for up to 6 months shelf life. Real time testing will continue for 13 months to demonstrate that the shelf life for the new cassette is equivalent to the shelf life (12 mos.) for the B-Lac cassette included in the previous 510(K) submission K093280.

5. CONCLUSION

Analysis of the data collected during performance testing studies for the OPTI B-Lac Cassette using the OPTI CCA-TS/TS2 analyzers demonstrates that the redesigned B-Lac Cassette performance in venous whole blood in clinical laboratory setting is substantially equivalent for all analytes.
