No
The summary describes a reagent and system for quantitative determination of haptoglobin using rate nephelometry, a standard laboratory technique. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related concepts in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No
The device is described as a reagent for quantitative determination, not as a treatment or therapy.

Yes
The device is described as being used for the "quantitative determination of human haptoglobin concentrations in human serum samples," which is a measurement used to aid in disease diagnosis or monitoring.

No

The device is described as a reagent and calibrator for use with an immunochemistry system, indicating it is a chemical component used in a laboratory instrument, 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 human haptoglobin concentrations in human serum samples". This indicates the device is used to analyze a biological sample (human serum) outside of the body (in vitro) to provide diagnostic information (haptoglobin concentration).
  • Device Description: The description reiterates the intended use, confirming it's for analyzing human serum samples.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies describe method comparison, stability, and imprecision experiments, which are typical evaluations for IVD devices to demonstrate their analytical performance.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device" which is another "Immunochemistry Systems HPT Haptoglobin Reagent" further supports that this device falls under the category of IVDs, as predicate devices are used for comparison in the regulatory process for new IVDs.

The core function of analyzing a biological sample in vitro to provide diagnostic information is the defining characteristic of an IVD.

§ 866.5460 Haptoglobin immunological test system.

(a)
Identification. A haptoglobin immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the haptoglobin (a protein that binds hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying pigment in red blood cells) in serum. Measurement of haptoglobin may aid in the diagnosis of hemolytic diseases (diseases in which the red blood cells rupture and release hemoglobin) related to the formation of hemoglobin-haptoglobin complexes and certain kidney diseases.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 866.9.
