Intended Use

The iQ200 System is an in-vitro diagnostic device used to automate the complete urinalysis profile, including urine test strip chemistry panel, and microscopic sediment analysis. Optionally, the iQ200 Analyzer can be used as a stand-alone unit, or the results from the iQ200 analyzer can be combined with other urine chemistry results received from an LIS. It produces quantitative or qualitative counts of all formed sediment elements present in urine, including cells, casts, crystals, and organisms. A competent human operator can set criteria for auto-reporting and flagging specimens for review. All instrument analyte image decisions may be reviewed and overridden by a trained technologist.

Device Description

The iQ200 Series Automated Urine Microscopy system utilizes a specimen sandwiched between lamina layers presented to a microscope with a CCD video camera. This ensures the specimen is precisely within the microscope's focus and field of view. The system automates sample handling and analyte classification for improved data reporting and management. Specimens are aspirated by an autosampler, and individual particle images are isolated in each frame. The Auto-Particle Recognition (APR) software classifies images into 12 categories, and more, with 27 additional sub-classifications available. Particle concentration is determined by the number of images and the analyzed volume. Results are checked against user-defined criteria and sent for operator review or directly uploaded to the LIS. Specimen results can be edited, imported, and exported.

V. INTENDED USE/INDICATIONS FOR USE

Page 6

The iQ200 System is an in-vitro diagnostic device used to automate the complete urinalysis profile, including urine test strip chemistry panel, and microscopic sediment analysis. Optionally, the iQ200 Analyzer can be used as a stand-alone unit, or the results from the iQ200 analyzer can be combined with other urine chemistry results received from an LIS. It produces quantitative or qualitative counts of all formed sediment elements present in urine, including cells, casts, crystals, and organisms. A competent human operator can set criteria for auto-reporting and flagging specimens for review. All instrument analyte image decisions may be reviewed and overridden by a trained technologist.

VI INDICATIONS FOR USE COMPARISON

The iQ200 System has the same indications for use as the previously cleared version, with the sole change being the discontinuation of the optional Lamina Cradle accessory (K093861). This modification does not constitute a new intended use, thereby maintaining the existing intended use and claims.

VI. TECHNOLOGICAL COMPARISON

The Lamina Cradle, an optional accessory introduced in K093861, has been discontinued. This discontinuation has no impact on the technological characteristics, such as design, material, chemical composition, principle of operation, and energy source, of the iQ200 Series when compared to predicate devices.

VII. NON-CLINICAL AND/OR CLINICAL TESTS SUMMARY

This section is not applicable since there were no changes to the existing performance section.

VIII. CONCLUSIONS

In summary, the iQ200 System, despite the discontinuation of the Lamina Cradle as described in this submission, is substantially equivalent in terms of safety and effectiveness to the predicate device.

§ 864.5200 Automated cell counter.

(a)
Identification. An automated cell counter is a fully-automated or semi-automated device used to count red blood cells, white blood cells, or blood platelets using a sample of the patient's peripheral blood (blood circulating in one of the body's extremities, such as the arm). These devices may also measure hemoglobin or hematocrit and may also calculate or measure one or more of the red cell indices (the erythrocyte mean corpuscular volume, the mean corpuscular hemoglobin, or the mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration). These devices may use either an electronic particle counting method or an optical counting method.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
