Device Description
Epstein-Barr Early Antigen Diffuse component (EA-D) IgG kit is an Enzyme-Linked The Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) for the qualitative determination of IgG antibodies in human serum to EA-D antigen. The Clark anti-EA-D IgG assay may be used in conjunction with other Epstein-Barr serologies (VCA IgG, VCA IgM, EBNA-1 IgG, EBNA-1 IgM and heterophile) as an aid in the diagnosis of infectious mononucleosis. The EA-D IgG ELISA test is an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay to detect IgG antibodies to Epstein-Barr Early Antigen Diffuse component. Purified recombinant EA-D antigen is attached to a solid phase microtiter well. Diluted test sera is added to each well. If the antibodies are present that recognize the antigen, they will bind to the antigen in the well. After incubation the wells are washed to remove unbound antibody. An enzyme labeled anti-human IgG is added to each well. If antibody is present it will bind to the antibody attached to the antigen on the well. After incubation the wells are washed to remove unbound conjugate. A substrate solution is added to each well. If enzyme is present the substrate will undergo a color change. After an incubation period the reaction is stopped and the color intensity is measured photometrically, producing an indirect measurement of specific antibody in the patient specimen.

No
The device description details a standard ELISA assay, which is a biochemical method for detecting antibodies. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any computational analysis beyond basic photometric measurement and calculation of standard metrics like sensitivity and specificity.

No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) kit used to aid in the diagnosis of infectious mononucleosis by detecting antibodies, not to treat a condition.

Yes.
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device "may be used in conjunction with other Epstein-Barr serologies... as an aid in the diagnosis of infectious mononucleosis." This clearly indicates its role in diagnosing a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical ELISA kit involving reagents, microtiter wells, and photometric measurement, indicating it is a hardware-based in vitro diagnostic device, not software only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The document explicitly states "For In Vitro Diagnostic Use Only." It also describes the device's use in testing human serum to aid in the diagnosis of infectious mononucleosis, which is a diagnostic purpose performed outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description: The description details an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) that analyzes human serum to detect antibodies. This is a common method used in in vitro diagnostics.
  • Performance Studies: The document includes performance characteristics like sensitivity, specificity, and precision, which are standard evaluations for IVD devices to demonstrate their analytical and clinical performance.

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

  1. Sensitivity and Specificity Based on Serum Characterization: One hundred and ninety three selected serum were tested at a clinical lab. The serum from the study were characterized as seronegative ( no serological evidence of past or present EBV infection), early acute (VCA IgM and heterophile antibody present, EBNA IgG absent), late acute or transitional (VCA IgM, EBNA IgG and heterophile antibody present, approximately 4-12 weeks post infection), or seropositive (presence of VCA IgG antibodies and EBNA IgG, no evidence of VCA IgM or heterophile antibody, indicative of past infection). It was assumed that the EA-D IgG response should be negative for seronegative; early acute, and convalescent serum, and positive for transitional serum.
  2. Precision: Seven different sera were assayed ten times each on three different assays at three different sites to determine the precision of the assay.
  3. Cross-Reactivity: Serum containing IgG antibody detectable by ELISA to Herpes Simplex Virus I & II, Cytomegalovirus, and Varicella Zoster Virus were assayed.

Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)

Relative Sensitivity (Late Acute) = 9/9 = 100% (95% Confidence Interval = 67.9%-100%)
Relative Specificity (Seronegative) = 14/14 = 100% (95% Confidence Interval = 79.1%-100%)
Relative Specificity (Early Acute) = 32/33 = 97.0% (95% Confidence Interval = 91.0%-100%)
Relative Sensitivity (Seropositive) = 26/132 = 19.7% (95% Confidence Interval = 12.8%-26.6%)
Relative Specificity (Seropositive) = 106/132 = 80.3% (95% Confidence Interval = 73.4%-87.2%)
Relative Agreement = 161/188 = 85.6% (95% Confidence Interval = 80.5%-90.8%)
Precision: SD and CV for 7 serum samples, HPC, CAL, LPC, NC.

(a)
Identification. Epstein-Barr virus serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in serological tests to identify antibodies to Epstein-Barr virus in serum. The identification aids in the diagnosis of Epstein-Barr virus infections and provides epidemiological information on diseases caused by these viruses. Epstein-Barr viruses are thought to cause infectious mononucleosis and have been associated with Burkitt's lymphoma (a tumor of the jaw in African children and young adults) and postnasal carcinoma (cancer).(b)

Performance Characteristics

1. Sensitivity and Specificity Based on Serum Characterization

One hundred and ninety three selected serum were tested at a clinical lab. The serum from the study were characterized as seronegative ( no serological evidence of past or present EBV infection), early acute (VCA IgM and heterophile antibody present, EBNA IgG absent), late acute or transitional (VCA IgM, EBNA IgG and heterophile antibody present, approximately 4-12 weeks post infection), or seropositive (presence of VCA IgG antibodies and EBNA IgG, no evidence of VCA IgM or heterophile antibody, indicative of past infection). The sensitivity, specificity and agreement of the assay was determined based on this characterization. It was assumed that the EA-D IgG response should be negative for seronegative; early acute, and convalescent serum, and positive for transitional serum. The results are summarized in Table 1.
