Intended Use

The Randox Laboratories Limited Direct HDL - C Test Kit is an in vitro diagnostic reagent for the quantitative determination of HDL - C in serum or plasma. This method measures HDL - C directly without the need for a separate precipitation step. An inverse relationship has been found to exist between HDL - C levels and the incidence of coronary heart disease (CHD). The importance of HDL - C as a risk factor for CHD is now recognised.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the "Boehringer Mannheim Direct HDL-Cholesterol" device (K970735). It establishes substantial equivalence to a predicate device, allowing it to be marketed. However, this document does not contain the specific details of acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets those criteria.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information. The letter only indicates regulatory clearance, not the underlying performance study details.

To answer your request, I would need a different type of document, such as:

  • A summary of safety and effectiveness (SSE) from the 510(k) submission.
  • The actual study report submitted to the FDA.
  • Published literature detailing the validation of the device.
