Intended Use
The DSL I-hCG IRMA assay is intended for the quantitative determination of I-hCG in human serum. It is intended for in vitro diagnostic use by professional laboratory personnel as an aid in the detection of pregnancy.
Device Description
The IRMA format is a non-competitive assay in which the analyte to be measured is "sandwiched" between two antibodies. The first antibody is immobilized to the inside wall of the test tube, the other antibody is radiolabelled for detection. The analyte present is bound by both the antibodies to form a "sandwiched" complex. Unbound materials are removed be decanting and washing the tubes. The resultant is analyzed in a gamma counter for bounds counts per minute. The amount of bound hCG is directly proportional to the concentration of the hCG present in the sample.

No
The device description details a traditional immunoassay method (IRMA) and the analysis of results using a gamma counter. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any computational analysis beyond basic proportional calculations. The performance studies involve linear regression and correlation, which are standard statistical methods, not indicative of AI/ML.

No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) assay intended for the quantitative determination of I-hCG in human serum, used as an aid in the detection of pregnancy, and does not directly treat or diagnose a disease state.

Yes
The device is described as an "in vitro diagnostic use" assay and its purpose is to aid "in the detection of pregnancy" by quantitatively determining I-hCG in human serum, which directly falls under the definition of a diagnostic device.

No

The device description clearly outlines a hardware-based assay format (IRMA) involving test tubes, antibodies, radiolabelling, and a gamma counter. This is not a software-only device.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states: "It is intended for in vitro diagnostic use by professional laboratory personnel as an aid in the detection of pregnancy." This is the primary indicator of an IVD.
  • Device Description: The description details a laboratory assay (IRMA) performed on a biological sample (human serum) to measure a specific analyte (I-hCG). This is characteristic of an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Intended User: The intended user is "professional laboratory personnel," which aligns with the use of a laboratory-based diagnostic test.
  • Performance Studies: The document describes a study comparing the device to a reference device using patient samples, which is a standard practice for evaluating the performance of an IVD.

All these elements strongly indicate that the DSL I-hCG IRMA assay is an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

To demonstrate substantial equivalence between the two assays, patient samples (n=53) were collected and assayed using both methods. Samples were chosen based on expected hCG levels so that samples with low, intermediate and high levels would be evaluated.

Summary of Performance Studies

Substantial equivalence study: patient samples (n=53) were collected and assayed using both methods. Linear regression analysis of the results obtained for the comparison gave the equation Y=0.86(X) + 9.5 with a correlation coefficient of (r) = 0.96.

The DSL I-hCG IRMA assay is intended for the quantitative determination of I-hCG in human serum. It is intended for in vitro diagnostic use by professional laboratory personnel as an aid in the detection of pregnancy.

The DSL I-hCG IRMA is substantially equivalent to the DPC hCG IRMA.

To demonstrate substantial equivalence between the two assays, patient samples (n=53) were collected and assayed using both methods. Samples were chosen based on expected hCG levels so that samples with low, intermediate and high levels would be evaluated. Linear regression analysis of the results obtained for the comparison gave the equation Y=0.86(X) + 9.5 with a correlation coefficient of (r) = 0.96.
