Intended Use
The INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Assay System is an in vitro diagnostic device intended for the quantitative determination of total Phenobarbital in serum for therapeutic drug monitoring by fluorescence polarization immunoassay. The assay system is for use on the Abbott TDx® or the TDxFLx® analyzer. The INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Reagent Set is intended for the quantitative determination of total phenobarbital in serum for therapeutic drug monitoring. The reagent set is intended for use in the INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Assay System. The INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Calibrator Set is intended for use in the calibration of the INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Assay System.
Device Description
The INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Assay System is an in vitro diagnostic device used to monitor serum levels of the therapeutic, anticonvulsant drug, phenobarbital. It is a fluorescence polarization immunoassay based on the competitive binding principle. The system consists of two products: the INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Reagent Set (containing Phenobarbital Antibody, Phenobarbital fluorescein TRACER, and PRE TREATMENT BUFFER) and the INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Calibrator Set (containing human serum with added phenobarbital at various concentrations). The system is for use on the Abbott TDx® or TDxFLx® analyzer.

No
The description focuses on a fluorescence polarization immunoassay for therapeutic drug monitoring, a standard in vitro diagnostic technique. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No.
This device is an in vitro diagnostic device used to measure the concentration of phenobarbital in serum for therapeutic drug monitoring, not to provide therapy itself.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Assay System is an in vitro diagnostic device..."

No

The device is an in vitro diagnostic assay system consisting of reagent sets and calibrator sets, which are physical components used with a specific analyzer. It is not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The document explicitly states "The INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Assay System is an in vitro diagnostic device intended for the quantitative determination of total Phenobarbital in serum for therapeutic drug monitoring..." This directly identifies it as an IVD.
  • Device Description: The description further reinforces this by stating "The INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Assay System is an in vitro diagnostic device used to monitor serum levels of the therapeutic, anticonvulsant drug, phenobarbital."
  • Nature of the Test: The assay is performed on serum samples (biological material) to measure a substance (phenobarbital) for medical purposes (therapeutic drug monitoring). This is a hallmark of an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Components: The system includes reagents and calibrators, which are typical components of IVD kits used for laboratory testing.

The information provided clearly indicates that this device is designed to be used outside of the body (in vitro) to examine specimens (serum) for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes (monitoring drug levels).

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Assay System is an in vitro diagnostic device intended for the quantitative determination of total Phenobarbital in serum for therapeutic drug monitoring by fluorescence polarization immunoassay. The assay system is for use on the Abbott TDx® or the TDxFLx® analyzer.

The INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Reagent Set is intended for the quantitative determination of total phenobarbital in serum for therapeutic drug monitoring. The reagent set is intended for use in the INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Assay System.

The INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Calibrator Set is intended for use in the calibration of the INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Assay System.

The INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Reagent Set and Calibrator Set are used together to generate the calibration curve on the TDx®/TDxFLx® analyzer. The calibration curve must be established prior to assaying unknown samples. Prior to performing the calibration procedure, the correct analyzer operating parameters must be set by following the instructions provided in the Product Insert Supplement, which is included with every INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Reagent Set.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION

THE INNOFLUOR PHENOBARBITAL ASSAY SYSTEM:

The INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Assay System is an in vitro diagnostic device used to monitor serum levels of the therapeutic, anticonvulsant drug, phenobarbital.

Phenobarbital is a barbiturate that has been used extensively as an anticonvulsant since 1912 (1.2). It is generally administered to epileptic patients in oral doses, often in conjunction with other anticonvulsant drugs. Oral absorption of phenobarbital is complete but slow, with peak plasma concentration reached several hours after intake.(1) Approximately 50% of the drug is bound to plasma proteins, with binding to a similar extent in tissue.(1) After dosing, 25-50% is excreted unchanged in the urine.(3) The remainder is metabolized almost exclusively in the liver to inactive metabolites, mainly the parahydroxyphenyl and N-glucoside derivatives.(1,4,5)

Monitoring serum concentrations of phenobarbital has been recommended for effective patient therapy because of the narrow therapeutic index and wide interindividual variability in the rate of metabolism and clearance of phenobarbital.(6.7) Immunoassays using a fluorescence polarization technique for phenobarbital have been published.(8,9) (See Attachment C, the INNOFLUOR® Phenobarbital Assay System package insert, Bibliography, for references.)
