Intended Use

The STA® Liatest® Control [N]+[P] kit is intended for use as control plasmas (Normal and Abnormal levels) for von Willebrand Factor (vWF) and D-dimer antigen assays by the immuno-turbidimetric method performed on STA® analyzers (Diagnostica Stago, France: STA® full-size model, K942117; STA® Compact model, K961579).

Device Description

The STA®-Liatest® Control [N]+[P] kit provides two citrated human plasmas intended for use as normal and abnormal controls for von Willebrand Factor (vWF) and D-dimer antigen assays by the immino-turbidimetric method performed on STA® analyzers (Diagnostic Stago, France: STA® full-size model and STA® Compact model).

Each STA®-Liatest® Control [N]+[P] kit provides 12 x 1-ml vials of freeze-dried human plasma containing vWF and D-dimer at normal levels (STA®-Liatest® Control [N]) and 12 x 1-ml vials of freeze-dried human plasma containing vWF and D-dimer at abnormal levels (STA®-Liatest® Control [P]).

Both the normal and abnormal plasmas in the freeze-dried state are stable for 24 months after the date of manufacture, when stored at 2°-8°C; after reconstitution with water, both plasmas are stable for 8 hours on board STA® analyzers.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text does not contain typical acceptance criteria and study results in the format expected for medical device performance evaluation. This document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for a control kit (STA®-Liatest® Control [N]+[P] Kit), which is used to ensure the proper functioning of other assays, specifically for von Willebrand Factor (vWF) and D-dimer antigen.

For a control kit, "acceptance criteria" usually relate to the stability and consistency of the control material itself, rather than performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or AI accuracy that would be expected for a diagnostic device. The provided text describes the product, its intended use, and its stability.

Here's the breakdown of what can be extracted or inferred, and what is missing based on your requested format:

What can be inferred from the provided text:

  • Device: STA®-Liatest® Control [N]+[P] Kit
  • Intended Use: Normal and abnormal controls for vWF and D-dimer antigen assays by the immuno-turbidimetric method performed on STA® analyzers.
  • Purpose of the "Study" mentioned (implicitly): To demonstrate the stability of the control plasmas.

What is present regarding "Acceptance Criteria" (interpreted for a control kit):

Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from text)Reported Device Performance (from text)
Stability (Freeze-dried state): Control plasmas should be stable for a specified duration at a given temperature.24 months after the date of manufacture, when stored at 2°-8°C.
Stability (After reconstitution): Control plasmas should be stable for a specified duration after reconstitution.8 hours on board STA® analyzers.

Missing Information (as per your request, because this is for a control kit, not a diagnostic device with AI):

The following points are not applicable or not provided in the context of this 510(k) submission for a control kit:

  1. Sample size for the test set and data provenance: Not explicitly stated for performance validation. The "study" here is likely internal manufacturing/stability testing, not a clinical trial with a "test set" of patients.
  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and qualifications: Not applicable for a control kit. Ground truth for a control kit refers to the known concentrations of its analytes, established during manufacturing.
  3. Adjudication method for the test set: Not applicable.
  4. Multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study: Not applicable. This kit controls human readers of an assay, it is not an AI algorithm assisting human readers.
  5. Standalone (algorithm-only) performance: Not applicable, as this is a physical control substance, not an algorithm.
  6. Type of ground truth used: For a control, the "ground truth" would be the assayed values of vWF and D-dimer established during manufacturing, possibly against a reference standard. The text doesn't specify how these were established.
  7. Sample size for the training set: Not applicable. Control kits don't have "training sets."
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

In summary: The provided document is a regulatory approval for a control kit, not a performance study of a diagnostic device with AI. Therefore, most of your requested detailed study information is not available and not relevant to this specific type of device. The document primarily focuses on the product description and its stability claims.

Dear Dr. Le:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal Laws or Requlations.
