No
The summary describes a standard immunoassay system and does not mention any AI or ML components.

No

The device is an in vitro diagnostic assay used for quantitative determination of free triiodothyronine levels, aiding in diagnosis rather than providing direct therapy.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that "The Access® Free T3 assay aids in the diagnosis of hyperthyroidism."

No

The device description explicitly states that the system comprises "reagents and the ACCESS® Immunoassay Analyzer," indicating the presence of hardware components (the analyzer) in addition to any potential software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "quantitative determination of free triiodothyronine levels in human serum". This involves testing a biological sample (human serum) outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description: The description mentions "reagents" and an "Immunoassay Analyzer", which are typical components of an in vitro diagnostic system used to perform tests on biological samples.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies describe analytical characteristics like precision, correlation with another assay, and analytical sensitivity, which are relevant to the performance of an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device" which is another immunoassay (Magic® 1-Free T3 Radioimmunoassay) further confirms its classification as an IVD. Predicate devices are used in regulatory submissions for new IVDs to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a legally marketed device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Precision studies: Within run precision ranges from 3.74% CV (high control) to 12.75% CV (low control). Total imprecision ranges from 5.08 % CV (high control) to 13.42 % CV (low control), Correlation: A comparison of Free T3 values from 217 samples run in both the ACCESS® Free T3 assay and the Ciba Coming Magic® 1-Free T3 assay test gives the following statistical data: r = 0.929, y = - 1.09 + 1.33x.
Analytical Sensitivity: The lowest detectable level of Free T3 distinguishable from zero (Free T3 Calibrator $0) with 95% confidence is 0,30 pg/ml.

Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)

Sensitivity: 0.30 pg/ml (analytical)

3. Device Description

The ACCESS® Free T3 reagents and the ACCESS® Immunoassay Analyzer comprise the ACCESS® Immunoassay System for the quantitative determination of free triiodothyronine in human serum.

4. Indications for Use

The ACCESS® Free T3 assay is a paramagnetic particle chemiluminescent immunoassay for the quantitative determination of free triiodothyronine levels in human serum using the ACCESS® Immunoassay System. The Access® Free T3 assay aids in the diagnosis of hyperthyroidism.

5. Comparison of Technological Characteristics

The ACCESS® Free T3 assay and the Ciba Coming Magic® 1-Free T3 assay are intended for the measurement of free triiodothryronine in human serum. The ACCESS® Free T3 assay and the Ciba Corning Magic® 1-Free T3 assay use multi-point calibrators/standards prepared in human serum. The ACCESS® Free T3 assay is non isotopic and uses a dioxetane based chemiluminescent substrate, while the Ciba Corning Magic® 1-Free T3 assay is a radioimmunoassay utilizing 1251 labeled triodothyronine. The ACCESS® Free T3 assay measures light production from a chemiluminescent reaction, while the Ciba Corning Magic® 1-Free T3 assay measures radioactivity. The ACCESS® Free T3 assay binds polyclonal capture antibody to paramagnetic particles, while the Ciba Corning Magic® 1-Free T3 assay binds polyclonal anti-T3 to microparticles. The ACCESS® Free T3 assay is a two step competitive binding immunoenzymatic assay, while the Ciba Corning Magic® 1-Free T3 assay is a one step competitive immunoassay.

6. Summary of Studies

Precision studies: Within run precision ranges from 3.74% CV (high control) to 12.75% CV (low control). Total imprecision ranges from 5.08 % CV (high control) to 13.42 % CV (low control), Correlation: A comparison of Free T3 values from 217 samples run in both the ACCESS® Free T3 assay and the Ciba Coming Magic® 1-Free T3 assay test gives the following statistical data: r = 0.929, y = - 1.09 + 1.33x.
