No
The summary describes a reagent and system for quantitative determination of albumin 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.
This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) reagent used for quantitative determination of albumin, not a therapeutic device designed to treat or cure a disease.

Yes

This device is intended for the quantitative determination of human albumin concentrations, which provides information for diagnosis and monitoring of medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "reagent kit" containing a cartridge of reagent, evaporation caps, and a barcode card, which are physical components, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "quantitative determination of human albumin concentrations in human serum and CSF samples." This involves testing biological samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: It describes a "reagent kit" used for this determination, which is a typical component of an IVD.
  • Method: The method used is "rate nephelometry," which is a laboratory technique for analyzing samples.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies describe method comparison, stability, and imprecision experiments conducted on serum and CSF samples, all of which are standard for evaluating the performance of an IVD.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device" which is also an "Immunochemistry Systems ALB Albumin Reagent" further confirms its classification as an IVD, as predicate devices are used for comparison in the regulatory process for IVDs.

Summary of Performance Studies

The data in the Premarket Notification on safety and effectiveness THE data finding of substantial equivalence to chemistry test systems already in commercial distribution. Equivalence is demonstrated through method comparison, stability, and imprecision experiments that relate results obtained from the Beckman Immunochemistry System ALB Albumin (on ARRAY) Reagent to the IMMAGE System ALB Reagent.
