Intended Use
The VANC FLEX™ reagent cartridge used on the Dimension® clinical chemistry system is an in vitro diagnostic test intended to measure vancomycin, an antibiotic drug, in plasma and serum. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of vancomycin overdose and in monitoring the level of vancomycin to ensure appropriate therapy.
Device Description
The VANC method is based on a Particle Enhanced Turbidimetric Inhibition Immunoassay (PETINIA) technique which uses a latex particle-vancomycin conjugate and vancomycin-specific monoclonal antibody.

No
The summary describes a standard immunoassay technique (PETINIA) for measuring vancomycin levels. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.

No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic test used to measure vancomycin levels, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one.

Yes

The text explicitly states: "The VANC FLEX™ reagent cartridge...is an in vitro diagnostic test intended to measure vancomycin...Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of vancomycin overdose and in monitoring the level of vancomycin to ensure appropriate therapy."

No

The device is a reagent cartridge used on a clinical chemistry system, which are physical components and not software-only.

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

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states: "The VANC FLEX™ reagent cartridge used on the Dimension® clinical chemistry system is an in vitro diagnostic test intended to measure vancomycin, an antibiotic drug, in plasma and serum."

Vancomycin FLEXTM Reagent Cartridge

Summary of Safety and Effectiveness

The VANC FLEX™ reagent cartridge used on the Dimension® clinical chemistry system is an in vitro diagnostic test intended to measure vancomycin, an antibiotic drug, in plasma and serum. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of vancomycin overdose and in monitoring the level of vancomycin to ensure appropriate therapy.

The VANC method is based on a Particle Enhanced Turbidimetric Inhibition Immunoassay (PETINIA) technique which uses a latex particle-vancomycin conjugate and vancomycinspecific monoclonal antibody.

The VANC FLEX™ reagent cartridge is substantially equivalent to the aca® analytical test pack, which was cleared by the FDA through the 510(k) process. Both tests used prepackaged reagents for the determination of vancomycin in human serum and plasma.

Two hundred thirty-one samples were tested with the VANC FLEX™ reagent cartridge on the Dimension® system and the aca® VANC test pack on the aca® discrete clinical analyzer, with the following results:

slope = 0.95 intercept = - 0.33 correlation coefficient = 0.987 range of samples = 0.1 - 49.8 ug/ mL
