No
The description focuses on the chemical reagents and the physical instrument for performing a standard coagulation test. There is no mention of any computational algorithms, data analysis, or learning processes that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
No
The device is described as an "in vitro diagnostic use" device for performing a prothrombin time test, which is a diagnostic measurement, not a therapeutic intervention.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The Hemochron Jr. Citrated PT is a unitized microcoagulation test intended for in vitro diagnostic use in performing a quantitative, one-stage prothrombin time."
No
The device description explicitly mentions a "self-contained disposable test cuvette" and the use of the "Hemochron® Jr. Whole Blood Microcoagulation System" and "ITC Microcoagulation analyzers," which are hardware components. The 510(k) describes a test kit and an analyzer, not a software-only device.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The document explicitly states "intended for in vitro diagnostic use".
- Device Description: It describes a "unitized microcoagulation test" and a "self-contained disposable test cuvette, prefilled with dried reagents required to perform a PT using citrated whole blood". This clearly indicates a test performed on a biological sample (whole blood) outside of the body to diagnose or monitor a condition (prothrombin time).
- "For in vitro Diagnostic Use" statement: This phrase is present in the Intended Use section, which is a strong indicator of an IVD.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Hemochron® Jr. Microcoagulation Citrated PT is a unitized microcoagulation test intended for in-vitro diagnostic use in performing a quantitative, one-stage prothrombin time for the monitoring of patient receiving oral anticoagulant therapy. The Citrated PT test is performed using a citrated whole blood sample on the Hemochron® Microcoagulation system. The instrument is portable and is intended for point-of-care testing. The instrument is not intended for home use.

Device Description
The Hemochron® Jr. Microcoagulation Citrated PT test is a self-contained disposable test cuvette, prefilled with dried reagents required to perform a PT using citrated whole blood with the Hemochron® Jr. Whole Blood Microcoagulation System.
The thromboplastin employed in the Hemochron® Jr. Microcoagulation Citrated PT test is identical to that used in the predicate device, the ITC Microcoagulation Prothrombin Time Test. The difference between the current assay and the predicate is a reagent modification to include calcium salt such that citrated whole blood may be used as the test substrate. The predicate device uses only fresh, non-citrated whole blood. In addition to the calcium salt, the preparation contains rabbit brain thromboplastin, stabilizers and buffers, similar to the reagents contained in the predicate device. The Hemochron® Jr. Microcoagulation Citrated PT and the predicate ITC Microcoagulation Prothrombin Time Test are both intended for point-of-care use. Both assays are performed using the ITC Microcoagulation analyzers.
The Hemochron® Jr. Microcoagulation Citrated PT and the predicate ITC Microcoagulation ProTime® test are both also substantially equivalent to the standard laboratory plasma PT assay. The results of the Hemochron® Jr. citrated PT are displayed as INR (International Normalized ration). Based on the clinical correlation studies presented in this submission, a conversion of the whole blood PT to the plasma PT is programmed into the instrument and the plasma PT (in seconds) also displayed at the conclusion of the test. In this way. PT results are available to the clinician in familiar plasma equivalent clotting times. The displayed plasma equivalent is at an assumed plasma PT reagent ISI of 1.0.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The Hemochron® Jr. Microcoagulation Citrated PT test was evaluated in laboratory studies to establish sensitivity to vitamin K depending coagulation factors. Dose-response curves were obtained for the factors which were highly correlated to the laboratory (plasma-based) assay. As the coagulant factor level decreased below 40% the Citrated PT result began to prolong above normal range. Clinical comparisons to the laboratory assay were conducted at the three university medical centers. These tests demonstrated a high degree of correlation of the Hemochron Jr. Citrated PT-INR result and laboratory PT-INR results. Precision of the assay measured using whole blood controls was between 1% and 7% across different operators and test days.
