Intended Use
The qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine or serum for the early determination of pregnancy in physician's office and clinical laboratories. The intended use of the Genzyme Diagnostics Contrast® Strip hCG is the early determination of pregnancy by the qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in human serum or urine. Our intent is to market this product for laboratory and professional use.
Device Description
Rapid membrane based immunoassay for the qualitative detection of hCG using mouse monoclonal anti-hCG and sheep anti-alpha hCG polyclonal antibodies.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies describe a standard immunoassay test strip, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
The device is for the detection of hCG for early determination of pregnancy, which is a diagnostic purpose, not a therapeutic one. It does not treat or prevent any condition.

Yes

This device is intended for the "qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine or serum for the early determination of pregnancy," which is a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Rapid membrane based immunoassay," which is a physical test strip, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states "The qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine or serum for the early determination of pregnancy". This involves testing a biological sample (urine or serum) in vitro (outside the body) to obtain diagnostic information.
  • Device Description: It describes a "Rapid membrane based immunoassay for the qualitative detection of hCG using mouse monoclonal anti-hCG and sheep anti-alpha hCG polyclonal antibodies." Immunoassays are a common type of IVD test.
  • Sample Type: The device uses "human serum or urine," which are biological specimens tested in vitro.
  • Care Setting: It is intended for use in "physician's office and clinical laboratories," which are settings where IVD testing is performed.

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

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol

A multicenter clinical study was performed in four physician's offices/clinics (POL). The Genzyme Diagnostics Contrast" Strip hCG was provided to the sites. Each site also used the legally marketed Rapid hCG™ Urine/Serum Test. The Rapid hCG™ Urine/Serum Test is marketed for laboratory and professional use. Urine specimens were tested in four physician's offices using both Genzyme tests. Clinical subjects included female patients seeking confirmation of pregnancy, those who were confirmed pregnant, post-menopausal women and assumed negatives. Three physician's offices performed both Genzyme tests on serum specimens from female patients for either confirmation of pregnancy or non-pregnancy status prior to treatment (e.g. X-ray) for other disease states and post-menopausal women.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

A multicenter clinical study was performed in four physician's offices/clinics (POL). The Genzyme Diagnostics Contrast" Strip hCG was provided to the sites. Each site also used the legally marketed Rapid hCG™ Urine/Serum Test. The Rapid hCG™ Urine/Serum Test is marketed for laboratory and professional use. The results with both urine (209) and serum (177) samples demonstrate that the Genzyme Diagnostics Contrase Strip hCG has 100% agreement with the Rapid hCG™ Urine/Serum Test. At three POLs, eight individuals with various levels of training tested a blind reproducibility and sensitivity panel using the Genzyme Diagnostics Contrast® Strip hCG. The Genzyme Diagnostics Contrast® Strip hCG reproducibly detected hCG in urine at levels as low as 20 mIU/mL and as high as 1,000,000 mIU/mL and serum hCG at levels as low as 10 mIU/mL and as high as 1,000,000 mIU/mL.

Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)

The Genzyme Diagnostics Contras® Strip hCG Test can detect hCG concentrations of 20 mIU/mL in urine and 10 mIU/mL in serum.
