No
The summary describes reagents for quantitative determination of immunoglobulins using standard clinical chemistry analyzers. There is no mention of AI/ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The performance metrics are standard for chemical assays (slope, intercept, r, imprecision, stability).

No
This device is for the quantitative determination of human immunoglobulins, which is a diagnostic purpose, not a therapeutic one.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that the reagents are intended for the "quantitative determination of human immunoglobulin G, A, and M in serum or plasma," which is a diagnostic purpose to measure specific biomarkers in patient samples.

No

The device description explicitly states that the device is a reagent intended for use with clinical chemistry analyzers, which are hardware devices. The performance studies also focus on the analytical performance of the reagent, not software functionality.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states the quantitative determination of human immunoglobulin G, A, and M in serum or plasma. This is a diagnostic test performed on biological samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: It describes reagents used in conjunction with clinical chemistry analyzers, which are instruments used for in vitro diagnostic testing.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies involve method comparison and imprecision experiments, which are standard evaluations for IVD devices to demonstrate their accuracy and reliability in analyzing biological samples.
  • Predicate Devices: The mention of predicate devices with K numbers (K771603) indicates that this device is being compared to previously cleared IVD devices by a regulatory body like the FDA.

All these factors strongly indicate that the SYNCHRON LX Systems Immunoglobulin G, A, and M Reagents are intended for use as In Vitro Diagnostic devices.

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

The data in the Premarket Notification on safety and effectiveness supports a finding of The battline in the receiver test systems already in commercial distribution. Equivalence is demonstrated through method comparison, stability, and imprecision experiments that relate results obtained from the Beckman Immunoglobulin Reagents (IGG, IGA, IGM) to the SYNCHRON LX Systems Immunoglobulin Reagents (Ig-G, Ig-A, lg-M).

Method Comparison Study Results:

  • SYNCHRON LX Immunoglobulin G Reagent (Ig-G): Slope = 0.928, Intercept = 72.7, r = 0.9970, n = 82
  • SYNCHRON LX Immunoglobulin A Reagent (Ig-A): Slope = 0.924, Intercept = 0.68, r = 0.9962, n = 78
  • SYNCHRON LX Immunoglobulin M Reagent (Ig-M): Slope = 1.051, Intercept = -17.19, r = 0.9914, n = 72

Estimated Within-Run Imprecision for Immunoglobulin M (Ig-M) Reagent:

  • Level 1: Mean = 46.6 mg/dL, S.D. = 1.8 mg/dL, %C.V. = 3.9, N = 80
  • Level 2: Mean = 103.5 mg/dL, S.D. = 2.3 mg/dL, %C.V. = 2.2, N = 80

Stability Study Results:

  • Product Claim: 24 month shelf-life, 14 day calibration stability, 60 days on-board stability

§ 866.5510 Immunoglobulins A, G, M, D, and E immunological test system.

(a)
Identification. An immunoglobulins A, G, M, D, and E immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the immunoglobulins A, G, M, D, an E (serum antibodies) in serum. Measurement of these immunoglobulins aids in the diagnosis of abnormal protein metabolism and the body's lack of ability to resist infectious agents.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
