Intended Use
The DSL FSH IRMA assay is intended for the quantitative determination of FSH in human serum. The measurement of FSH is used as a diagnostic aid in the diagnosis and treatment of pituitary gland and gonadal disorders.
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 FSH is directly proportional to the concentration of the FSH present in the sample.
More Information

K/DEN number: Not Found

No
The device description details a standard immunoassay technique (IRMA) and analysis using a gamma counter, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data processing or interpretation.

No
The device is described as a diagnostic aid for quantitative determination of FSH, not for treatment.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The measurement of FSH is used as a diagnostic aid in the diagnosis and treatment of pituitary gland and gonadal disorders," indicating its use for diagnostic purposes.

No

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

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states "quantitative determination of FSH in human serum" and "used as a diagnostic aid in the diagnosis and treatment of pituitary gland and gonadal disorders." This clearly indicates the device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body for the purpose of providing information for diagnosis.
  • Device Description: The description details a laboratory assay (IRMA) performed on a human sample (serum) to measure an analyte (FSH). This is a typical description of an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies involve testing "patient samples" to compare the results of this assay with a predicate device. This further supports its use in a diagnostic context.

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

To demonstrate substantial equivalence between the two assays, patient samples (n=81) were collected and assayed using both methods. Samples were chosen based on expected FSH 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 =0.66(X) + 1.26 with a correlation coefficient of (r) = 0.98.
