No
The summary describes a calibrator for nephelometer systems and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

No
This device is a calibrator used to establish reference curves for diagnostic tests, not to treat a condition or disease.

No

This device is a calibrator, used to establish reference curves for diagnostic tests performed on a nephelometer. It is not itself a diagnostic device that directly provides diagnostic information about a patient's condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a calibrator prepared from human serum (lyophilized) with stabilizers and preservative, which is a physical substance, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "for the establishment of reference curves" for various protein tests. This directly relates to calibrating diagnostic tests performed in vitro (outside the body) on biological samples (human serum).
  • Device Description: The device is a "calibrator prepared from human serum" and is intended to be used with "Behring Nephelometer Systems" for the "calibration of the following tests: Fibrinogen, Antithrombin II, Prothrombin, Plasminogen, alpha1-Antitrypsin, C1 Inhibitor". These are all common diagnostic tests performed on biological fluids.
  • Context: Calibrators are essential components of many IVD test systems, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the results.

The information provided clearly indicates that this device is used in the process of performing diagnostic tests on biological samples, which is the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

Precision studies using one lot of N Protein Standard PY were run on the Behring Nephelometer. The %CVs ranged from 1.01 to 2.29%.
Stability was run according to in-house protocols and the control was found stable for at least 18 months lyophilized and 14 days once reconstituted.

5. Proposed Device Intended Use:

N Protein Standard PY is intended to be used for the establishment of reference curves.

Medical device to which equivalence is claimed and comparison 6. information.

The N Protein Standard PY is substantially equivalent in intended use to the N Protein Standard SY. Both standards are in vitro diagnostic reagents intended for use as a calibrator for the establishment of reference curves. The N protein Standard PY like the N Protein Standard SY is a multi-constituent standard in a blood based matrix.

The N Protein Standard PY differs from the N Protein Standard SY in that the N Protein Standard PY are intended for the calibration of coagulation assay while the N Protein Standard SY is intended for the calibration of immunology assays.

7. Proposed Device Performance Characteristics:

Precision and reproducibility:

Precision studies using one lot of N Protein Standard PY were run on the Behring Nephelometer. The %CVs ranged from 1.01 to 2.29%.

Stability

Stablity was run according to in-house protocols and the control was found stable for at least 18 months lyophilized and 14 days once reconstituted.
