Intended Use
The SYNCHRON Systems Iron (FE) and Iron Binding Capacity (IBCT) Reagents, in conjunction with SYCNHRONC Systems Iron/TIBC Calibrator, are intended for use in the quantitative determination of iron and total iron binding capacity in human serum and plasma samples. These assays are designed for use with the family of SYNCHRON Systems such as the SYNCHRON CX®4, CX®4CE, CX4 DELTA, CX5, CX5CE, CX5 DELTA, CX7, and CX7 DELTA Systems.
Device Description
The SYNCHRON Systems Iron (FE) and Total Iron Binding Capacity (IBCT) Reagents are modifications of the current SYNCHRON CX Systems Iron (IRON) and Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) Reagents, and are designed for optimal performance on the SYNCHRON Systems. The modifications include formulation changes which allow for the assay of both serum and plasma samples. Additionally, the IBCT assay utilizes an alumina column for the removal of unbound ferric ions as opposed to magnesium carbonate.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes chemical reagents and their performance characteristics, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is described as reagents for quantitative determination of iron and total iron binding capacity in human serum and plasma, which are diagnostic measurements and not therapeutic.

Yes
The device is described as reagents intended for the "quantitative determination of iron and total iron binding capacity in human serum and plasma samples," which is a diagnostic measurement.

No

The device description clearly states it is a reagent, which is a chemical substance used in a chemical reaction, not a software program. It is intended for use with specific hardware systems (SYNCHRON Systems).

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states the device is for the "quantitative determination of iron and total iron binding capacity in human serum and plasma samples." This involves testing biological samples in vitro (outside the body) to provide diagnostic information.
  • Device Description: The description details reagents used for performing these tests on biological samples.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies involve analyzing results obtained from testing samples, which is characteristic of IVD devices.

The core function of the device is to analyze biological samples to measure specific substances (iron and total iron binding capacity) for diagnostic purposes, which is the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

The data In the Premarket Notification on safety and effectiveness supports a finding of substantial equivalence to chemistry test systems already in commercial distribution. Equivalence is demonstrated through method companison, stability, and imprecision experiments that relate results obtained from the SYNCHRON FE and IBCT Reagents to the SYNCHRON CX IRON and TIBC Reagents.
