Intended Use

Shinetell Plus™ Digital Early Pregnancy Test is intended for the qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine, as an aid in early detection of pregnancy, in some cases as early as five (5) days before the expected period, i.e., as early as six (6) days before the day of the missed period.

Device Description

Shinetell Plus™ Digital Early Pregnancy Test is used for in vitro qualitative detection of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) in human urine, and is designed to be tested in dip or midstream mode. The test device consists of a single test strip assembled in a plastic housing, with an absorbent tip. The device is in a ready-to-use format.

Shinetell Plus™ Digital Early Pregnancy Test uses lateral flow immunoassay and light reflection for the detection of the HCG in urine specimens. The test would detect the light intensity by using the LED as the light source. After that, the result can be displayed on the display screen.

AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the Shinetell Plus™ Digital Early Pregnancy Test, based on the provided 510(k) clearance letter:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The FDA clearance letter does not explicitly state "acceptance criteria" as a separate, quantitative table. However, we can infer the acceptance criteria from the performance studies presented, particularly the sensitivity and agreement rates. The primary criterion is demonstrating a sensitivity of 10 mIU/mL and high agreement with professional results and the predicate device.

Performance MetricAcceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
Analytical Sensitivity (LOD)10 mIU/mL (based on predicate and stated sensitivity)Midstream & Dip Testing: 100% positive at 10 mIU/mL hCG.
Cross-ReactivityNo false positives with related hormones (hLH, hFSH, hTSH)No cross-reactivity observed with 1000 mIU/mL hLH, 1000 mIU/mL hFSH, 1000 μIU/mL hTSH. Not affected by hCG β-core fragment up to 500,000 pmol/L.
InterferenceNo interference from common substances or urine propertiesNo interference observed at specified concentrations for various substances (Acetaminophen, Acetylsalicylic acid, Ascorbic acid, Atropine, Caffeine, Gentisic acid, Glucose, Hemoglobin, Tetracycline, Ampicillin, Albumin, β-hydroxybutyrate, Ephedrine, Phenylpropanolamine, Phenothiazine, EDTA, Salicyclic Acid, Benzoylecgonine, Cannabinol, Codeine, Ethanol, Bilirubin, Pregnanediol, Thiophene, Ketone). No effect from urine pH (4-9) or density (1.000-1.035).
Hook EffectNo hook effect up to clinically relevant high concentrationsNo hook effect observed up to 500,000 mIU/mL hCG.
Clinical Agreement (vs. Predicate)High agreement (e.g., >95%) with predicate deviceDip Testing: 100% conformity (49 Pos, 51 Neg vs Predicate). Midstream Testing: 100% conformity (48 Pos, 52 Neg vs Predicate).
Lay Person Readability & InterpretationHigh agreement (e.g., >95%) between lay user and professional results; ease of use; clear labelingIn-Stream Method: 100% positive and 100% negative conformity with professional results (48 Pos, 52 Neg). Dip Method: 100% positive and 100% negative conformity with professional results (49 Pos, 51 Neg). Lay person results for spiked samples showed 98-100% agreement with professional results. Questionnaires indicated ease of use and clear labeling.
Early Detection PerformanceDetect pregnancy early (e.g., 5 days before EMP)Detected 67.7% positive hCG five days before the Expected Menstrual Period (EMP). Detected 100% positive hCG on the day of EMP.
StabilityStable for a reasonable shelf life24 months at 35.6-86°F (based on real-time stability study).

2. Sample Sizes and Data Provenance

  • Analytical Performance (Precision/Reproducibility/Sensitivity):

    • Test Set Sample Size: For each hCG concentration (0, 3, 5, 7.5, 8, 10, 25, 50 mIU/mL), 10 replicates were tested per day for 5 days for each of 3 device lots, by 3 different operators. This sums to (8 concentrations * 10 replicates/day * 5 days * 3 lots) = 1200 tests for Midstream and another 1200 tests for Dip Testing.
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but typically these are laboratory-controlled, prospective studies with spiked samples. The hCG standard is traceable to the 5th WHO.
  • Specificity (Non-pregnant females):

    • Test Set Sample Size: 300 urine samples (100 from pre-menopausal, 100 from peri-menopausal, 100 from post-menopausal women).
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but implies prospectively collected urine samples from healthy non-pregnant females.
  • Method Comparison Study (vs. Predicate):

    • Test Set Sample Size: Urine samples from 200 women suspected to be pregnant in the early stage (<5 weeks).
    • Data Provenance: Collected from women presenting to test for pregnancy, implying a prospective, clinical setting, likely in an unspecified country (as no country of origin is mentioned).
  • Lay Person Study:

    • Test Set Sample Size: 200 women for self-testing. For spiked samples, 200 lay persons tested the samples.
    • Data Provenance: Individuals with varying educational and occupational backgrounds from three sites. This is a prospective, user study.
  • Early Pregnancy Test Study:

    • Test Set Sample Size: 650 urine samples from 65 pregnant women (65 characterized cycle segments of conceptive cycles).
    • Data Provenance: Collected from pregnant women. This is a prospective, clinical study.

3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth for Test Set

  • Analytical Performance: The ground truth for hCG concentrations was established by spiking negative urine with a known hCG standard (Traceable to the 5th WHO). No human experts were involved in establishing this ground truth, as it's an analytical measurement.
  • Specificity (Non-pregnant females): The ground truth was based on the healthy, non-pregnant status of the female participants. No specific experts or their qualifications for this judgment are mentioned, but it's assumed to be based on medical history or clinical assessment.
  • Method Comparison Study: The ground truth was the result obtained from the predicate device (Wondfo One Step HCG Urine Pregnancy Test Midstream/Strip/Cassette, K150022). No human experts were involved in establishing a separate ground truth.
  • Lay Person Study (vs. Professional Results): The "Professional Result" served as the ground truth. The qualifications of these "professionals" are not specified.
  • Early Pregnancy Test Study: The "Expected Menstrual Period (EMP)" and "pregnant women" served as the ground truth, implying clinical determination of pregnancy and cycle dating. No specific experts or their qualifications for this determination are mentioned.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • No explicit adjudication method (like 2+1, 3+1) is mentioned for any of the studies.
  • For analytical performance, the ground truth was established by precise spiking of known concentrations.
  • For method comparison and lay person studies, direct comparison was made to the predicate device or "professional results" without specifying expert adjudication process if discrepancies arose.
  • For the early pregnancy test study, the ground truth seems to be clinical data (EMP, confirmed pregnancy) rather than expert review of the test results themselves.

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

  • No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done to assess how much human readers improve with AI vs. without AI assistance.
  • This device is an Over-The-Counter (OTC) pregnancy test, where the "reader" is typically the lay user interpreting a digital display. The studies focused on the device's standalone performance, comparison to a predicate, and lay user comprehension/accuracy.

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

  • Yes, a standalone study was done. The entire analytical performance section (sensitivity, hook effect, cross-reactivity, interfering substances) and the early pregnancy test study evaluated the device's technical performance to detect hCG and display a result ("Pregnant" or "Not Pregnant") without human interpretation beyond reading the digital display.
  • The "Professional Results" in the Lay Person study also reflect the device's standalone performance when used by trained individuals.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

  • Analytical Performance: Known concentrations of hCG spiked into negative urine (traceable to WHO International Standard). This is an analytical gold standard.
  • Specificity: Healthy, non-pregnant status of study participants. This is an outcome/status-based ground truth related to the absence of the target analyte.
  • Method Comparison: Results from a legally marketed predicate device.
  • Lay Person Study: "Professional Results" using the Shinetell Plus™ device. This indicates a reference test ground truth, where the "professionals" are presumably highly accurate users.
  • Early Pregnancy Test Study: Clinically determined pregnancy and cycle dating relative to the Expected Menstrual Period (EMP). This is outcomes data/clinical status ground truth.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

  • The document does not explicitly state a training set size or methodology for the Shinetell Plus™ Digital Early Pregnancy Test. This is common for this type of immunoassay device, which relies on established chemical and optical detection principles rather than machine learning algorithms that typically require large training datasets. The device's "learning" is inherent in its design and manufacturing.
  • The testing described is primarily for validation (verification and validation), not for training a predictive model.

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

  • As a training set is not explicitly mentioned or implied for an AI/machine learning model, this question is not directly applicable based on the provided document. The device operates on an immunoassay principle with "light reflection" and "photodiode" detection, suggesting a pre-programmed algorithm based on known HCG detection thresholds, rather than a learned model.

8. Test Principle

Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) is a glycoprotein produced by the placenta during pregnancy. Shinetell Plus™ Digital Early Pregnancy Test uses lateral flow immunoassay and light reflection for the detection of the HCG in urine specimens. After the appropriate urine sample is added to the absorbent tip, the clock symbol will appear and blink on the Display Screen after urine is applied, indicating the test is working. The HCG in urine specimen will react with the anti-β-HCG antibody-colloidal gold conjugate and form a compound. As the liquid flows to the Test area of the test strip, the compound will be captured by the anti-α-HCG antibody immobilized on the Test area, then a colored line will be formed on the Test area.

The test would detect the light intensity by using the LED as the light source. The

Page 7

background of the LED lighted zone will be darker due to the color of colloidal gold conjugate, and the intensity of the reflected light received by the photodiode decreases significantly. By detecting the signal parameter of the reflected light intensity, which is decreasing significantly, the test can determine that the sample is added properly. The LED light will irradiate the test strip and then be reflected to the photodiode and the photodiode can respond to the different light intensity value by testing the intensity of reflected light.

In approximately 3 minutes, the result will be shown on the display screen. If test value is over the preset threshold, the test result is positive and "Pregnant" is displayed on the screen. Otherwise, the result is negative and "Not Pregnant" is displayed on the screen.

If the sample is added improperly, the background color of the LED lighted zone does not decrease significantly. By detecting the signal parameter of the reflected light intensity, which isn't decreasing significantly, the test can determine that the sample is added improperly, and the test will be invalid and "?" is displayed on the screen.

9. Performance Characteristics

A. Analytical performance

a. Precision/Reproducibility/Sensitivity

Negative female urine was spiked with hCG standard (Traceable to the 5th WHO) to hCG concentrations of 0, 3, 5, 7.5, 8, 10, 25 and 50 mIU/mL. Each sample was tested by both dip and midstream methods in 10 replicates per day for 5 days for each device lot. Total of three device lots were tested. Tests were performed by three different operators for each sample concentration.

The results are summarized in the table below:

Shinetell Plus™ Digital Early Pregnancy Test exhibited reproducible results. Based on the above results, the sensitivity of Shinetell Plus™ Digital Early Pregnancy Test is demonstrated to be 10 mIU/mL.

b. Linearity/assay reportable range:

Linearity is not applicable since this is a qualitative test.

c. Hook effect test:

Negative urine samples were spiked with varying hCG concentrations (6,250 mIU/mL, 12,500 mIU/mL, 25,000 mIU/mL, 50,000 mIU/mL, 100,000 mIU/mL, 200,000 mIU/mL and 500,000 mIU/mL). All tested concentrations gave a positive result. The results demonstrated that no hook effect was observed at hCG concentration up to 500,000 mIU/mL.

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

Traceability:
Shinetell Plus™ Digital Early Pregnancy Test is calibrated against reference material traceable to WHO International Standard 5th edition, NIBSC code 07/364.

Stability:
Products in sealed foil pouch are stable for 24 months at 35.6-86°F, based on the real time stability study.

e. Specificity and cross reactivity

To evaluate specificity, 300 urine samples were collected from healthy, non-pregnant female in pre-menopausal (ages 1840 years old), peri-menopausal (4155 years old) and post-menopausal (>55 years old) groups. 100 people for each age group. Both dip and midstream testing are evaluated. No false positive results were observed for any of the age groups.

Page 9

To evaluate cross-reactivity, negative and positive urine samples (0, 5 and 10 mIU/mL hCG) were spiked with potential cross reactants (1000 mIU/mL hLH, 1000 mIU/mL hFSH, 1000 μIU/mL hTSH). No cross-reactivity was observed at tested concentration.

To evaluate the effect of the hCG β-core fragment, Negative urine samples (0 and 5 mIU/mL hCG) and positive urine samples (10 and 20,000 mIU/mL hCG) were spiked with hCG β-core fragment (hCGβcf) at concentrations of 50,000 pmol/L, 125,000 pmol/L, 250,000pmol/L and 500,000pmol/L. The performance of Shinetell Plus™ Digital Early Pregnancy Test is not affected by hCG β-core fragment concentrations up to 500,000 pmol/L.

f. Interfering substance

To evaluate potential interferers with Shinetell Plus™ Digital Early Pregnancy Test, urine samples containing 0, 5 and 10 mIU/mL hCG were spiked with the interfering substance to obtain the certain desired test concentration. No interference effect was observed at the tested concentration shown in table below:

D. Early Pregnancy Test Study

In this study, total 650 urine samples from 65 characterized cycle segments of conceptive cycles were collected from 65 pregnant women. All samples were masked and randomized. Each sample was tested both in-stream and dip methods using three lots of the device. The new device detected 67.7% positive hCG five days before the Expected Menstrual Period (EMP), and 100% positive hCG on the day of EMP. No differences were observed between different test methods. The following table is the summary of the data.
