The Synermed® Total Billirubin reagent is intended for use in the quantitative determination of total bilirubin in serum or plasma. The reagent kit is intended for in vitro diagnostic use only.
Elevated serum biliruhin levels are observed in a variety of conditions including hemolytic disorders, biliary obstruction, cholestasis, hepatitis, cirrhosis and decreased conjugation (e.g. neonatal jaundice).
Total Bilirubin Reagent Kit
I am sorry, but the provided text from the FDA letter for the Synermed Total Bilirubin Reagent Kit (K972716) is a clearance letter and does not contain the detailed information required to describe acceptance criteria and a study proving device effectiveness. The letter confirms substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device but does not provide performance data, study design, or ground truth establishment.
Therefore, I cannot extract the following information from the given text:
- A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
- Sample sizes used for the test set and data provenance
- Number of experts used to establish ground truth and their qualifications
- Adjudication method for the test set
- Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study results or effect size
- Standalone algorithmic performance
- Type of ground truth used
- Sample size for the training set
- How the ground truth for the training set was established

K972716 Re : Synermed Total Bilirubin Reagent Kit Requlatory Class: II Product Code: CIG Dated: July 18, 1997 Received: July 21, 1997
Dear Ms. Arentz:
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 Requlation (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.

Under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA-88), this device may require a CLIA complexity categorization. To determine if it does, you should contact the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) at (770) 488-7655.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as . . described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling requlation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4588. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to
premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsmamain.html".
