No
The summary describes a standard immunoassay kit and analyzer for measuring ferritin levels, with no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.

No.
The device measures ferritin levels to aid in diagnosis, it does not treat a disease or condition.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that OPUS Ferritin is "an aid in the diagnosis of hemochromatosis (iron overload) and iron deficiency anemia," which clearly indicates its use in diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "set of reagents" intended for use with "OPUS immunoassay analyzers," indicating it is a hardware/reagent-based in vitro diagnostic device, not software only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that OPUS Ferritin is an "in vitro fluorogenic enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) for the quantitative measurement of ferritin in human serum". The term "in vitro" means "in glass" or "outside the body," which is a key characteristic of IVDs.
  • Sample Type: The device measures ferritin in "human serum," which is a biological sample taken from the body and analyzed outside the body.
  • Purpose: The purpose is to aid in the diagnosis of medical conditions ("hemochromatosis (iron overload) and iron deficiency anemia"). This diagnostic purpose is a core function of IVDs.
  • Device Description: The "Device Description" further clarifies that it's a "set of reagents intended to be used together with the OPUS immunoassay analyzers for the quantitative measurement of ferritin in human serum." Reagents used to analyze biological samples outside the body are components of IVDs.

All these points align with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

Precision
Intra-assay precision was determined by the evaluation of three levels of control material in replicates of twenty (20) each. %CV ranged from 5.5% to 7.00%.
Inter-assay precision was determined by the evaluation of three levels of control material in duplicate, assayed over a five day period to total 20 replicates. %CV ranged from 4.60% to 9.00%.

Accuracy by Recovery
Recovery was determined by spiking previously assaved and pooled human serum matrix with different levels of ferritin. The samples were assaved using OPUS Ferritin in triplicate. Percent recovery ranged from 89 to 101%.

Accuracy by Correlation
OPUS Ferritin was compared to a commercially available Ferritin assay by evaluation of 70 serum samples ranging from 2.31 to 807.00 ng/ml. A correlation coefficient of 0.98 was obtained, with a v-intercept value of 11.95 and a slope of 0.92.

§ 866.5340 Ferritin immunological test system.

(a)
Identification. A ferritin immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the ferritin (an iron-storing protein) in serum and other body fluids. Measurements of ferritin aid in the diagnosis of diseases affecting iron metabolism, such as hemochromatosis (iron overload) and iron deficiency amemia.(b)

Medical device to which equivalence is claimed and comparison 6. information:

The OPUS Serum Ferritin assay is substantially equivalent in intended use to results obtained using the Abbott IMX Ferritin. The Abbot IMX Ferritin, like the proposed product, employs the principle of two site or sandwich immunoassay. Both methods use a labeled antibody for the quantitative measurement of ferritin in human serum. The OPUS Serum Ferritin and Abbott IMX Ferritin are both based on a six level calibrator system. Also, both the Abbott IMX Ferritin and the OPUS Serum Ferritin assay include a tri-level control.

The OPUS Serum Ferritin differs from the Abbott IMX Ferritin in that human serum and plasma samples may be used in the Abbott IMX Ferritin and only human serum in the OPUS Serum Ferritin assay.
