The device description details a standard enzyme immunoassay based on chemical reactions and optical measurement, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data analysis or interpretation.
No.
The device is used to measure ferritin in human samples, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one. Therapeutic devices are designed to treat or alleviate a medical condition.
Yes
The device quantitatively measures ferritin in human serum and plasma, which aids in the diagnosis and management of conditions related to ferritin levels.
No
The device is a reagent cartridge, which is a physical component used in a clinical chemistry system, not a software-only device.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the device is used to "quantitatively measure ferritin in human serum and plasma." This is a measurement performed on biological samples taken from the human body.
- Device Description: The description details a laboratory test ("one-step enzyme immunoassay") that analyzes a biological sample ("human serum and plasma") to detect and quantify a specific substance ("ferritin").
- Mechanism: The mechanism involves chemical reactions and measurements performed in vitro (outside the living body) on the sample.
These characteristics align directly with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device, which is used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.

Device Description
The FERR Flex™ Reagent Cartridge is a one-step enzyme immunoassay based on the "sandwich" principle. Sample is incubated with chromium dioxide particles, coated with monoclonal anitbodies specific for ferritin and conjugate reagent consisting of B-galactosidase labeled monoclonal antibodies specific for a second binding site on ferritin to form a particle-ferritin-conjugate sandwich. Unbound conjugate and analyte are removed by magnetic separation and washing. The sandwich bound Bgalactosidase is combined with a chromogenic substrate chlorophenl red-b-dgalactopyranoside (CPRG). Hydrolvsis of CPRG releases a chromophore (CPR). The color change at 577 nm is directly proportional to the concentration of ferritin in the original sample.

Summary of Performance Studies
Split sample comparison between the FERR Flex™ reagent cartridge on the Dimension® RxL clinical chemistry system and the Abbott IMx® assay gave a correlation coefficient of 0.983, slope of 0.98, and an intercept of -0.8 ng/mL when tested with 60 clinical patient samples.
Key Metrics
Correlation coefficient of 0.983, slope of 0.98, and an intercept of -0.8 ng/mL.

§ 866.5340 Ferritin immunological test system.
(a)
Identification. A ferritin immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the ferritin (an iron-storing protein) in serum and other body fluids. Measurements of ferritin aid in the diagnosis of diseases affecting iron metabolism, such as hemochromatosis (iron overload) and iron deficiency amemia.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Comments on Substantial
Equivalence: Split sample comparison between the FERR Flex™ reagent cartridge on the Dimension® RxL clinical chemistry system and the Abbott IMx® assay gave a correlation coefficient of 0.983, slope of 0.98, and an intercept of -0.8 ng/mL when tested with 60 clinical patient samples.
Conclusion: The FERR Flex™ Reagent Cartridge is substantially equivalent in principle and performance to the Imx® Ferritin Assay based on the split sample comparison discussed above.
