No
The summary describes a standard turbidimetric immunoassay for measuring IgM levels and does not mention any AI or ML components.

No

The device is an in vitro diagnostic product used for quantitative determination of Immunoglobulin M, which aids in diagnosis, not treatment.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that the product permits "quantitative in vitro diagnostic determination of Immunoglobulin M in serum and plasma" and that "Measurement of IgM aids in the diagnosis of abnormal protein metabolism and the body's lack of ability to resist infectious agents."

No

The device description explicitly lists physical components (reagents and buffer) and the intended use describes an in vitro diagnostic test performed on a clinical chemistry system, indicating a hardware component is essential.

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 Immunoglobulin M 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 product is intended for use with "serum and plasma," which are biological samples analyzed in vitro.
  • Purpose: The purpose of the measurement is to "aid in the diagnosis of abnormal protein metabolism and the body's lack of ability to resist infectious agents," which is a diagnostic purpose.

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

Summary of Performance Studies

A comparative performance study was performed with IL Test™ IgM on a Monarch Clinical Chemistry System and Biokit's quantex IgM on an ILab Clinical Chemistry System. Method comparison studies evaluated IgM levels of forty-eight serum samples on the respective instruments. The correlation (r) in these studies was 0.9912.

§ 866.5550 Immunoglobulin (light chain specific) immunological test system.

(a)
Identification. An immunoglobulin (light chain specific) immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques both kappa and lambda types of light chain portions of immunoglobulin molecules in serum, other body fluids, and tissues. In some disease states, an excess of light chains are produced by the antibody-forming cells. These free light chains, unassociated with gamma globulin molecules, can be found in a patient's body fluids and tissues. Measurement of the various amounts of the different types of light chains aids in the diagnosis of multiple myeloma (cancer of antibody-forming cells), lymphocytic neoplasms (cancer of lymphoid tissue), Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (increased production of large immunoglobulins), and connective tissue diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
