Intended Use
This product permits the quantitative in vitro diagnostic determination of Complement 4 in serum and plasma on the ILab Clinical Chemistry System by turbidimetric immunoassay method. C4 is one of a group of serum proteins which destroy infectious agents. Measurement of this protein aids in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders, especially those associated with deficiencies of C4.

No
The description focuses on a turbidimetric immunoassay method for quantitative determination of Complement 4, which is a standard laboratory technique and does not mention or imply the use of AI/ML.

No

Explanation: This device is an in vitro diagnostic product designed to quantify Complement 4 for diagnostic purposes, not to treat or cure a medical condition.

Yes
This device is intended for the quantitative in vitro diagnostic determination of Complement 4 to aid in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders, which clearly indicates a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description explicitly lists physical components (reagents and buffer) which are not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the product permits the "quantitative in vitro diagnostic determination of Complement 4 in serum and plasma". The term "in vitro diagnostic" is clearly used.
  • Method: The method described is a "turbidimetric immunoassay method", which is a common technique used in in vitro diagnostics to measure substances in biological samples.
  • Sample Type: The device is intended for use with "serum and plasma", which are biological samples analyzed in vitro.
  • Purpose: The purpose is to "aid in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders", which is a diagnostic application.

All of these points align with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

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

A comparative performance study was performed with IL Test™ C4 on a Monarch Clinical Chemistry System and Biokit's quantex C4 on an ILab Clinical Chemistry System. Method comparison studies evaluated C4 levels of thirty-eight serum samples on the respective instruments. The correlation (r) in these studies was 0.9791.

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

The correlation (r) in these studies was 0.9791.

§ 866.5240 Complement components immunological test system.

(a)
Identification. A complement components immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques complement components C1q , C1r , C1s , C2 , C3 , C4 , C5 , C6 , C7 , C8 , and C9 , in serum, other body fluids, and tissues. Complement is a group of serum proteins which destroy infectious agents. Measurements of these proteins aids in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders, especially those associated with deficiencies of complement components.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
