No
The document explicitly states "Not Found" for mentions of AI, DNN, or ML, and the device description and intended use do not suggest the use of such technologies.

No
This device is an unassayed chemistry control used in clinical laboratories for quality control purposes, not for treating any medical condition.

No

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the device is a control used for monitoring test system performance in clinical laboratories performing chemistry assays. It is not used to diagnose a patient's condition.

No

The device description clearly identifies the device as "QUIKCHECK Unassayed Chemistry Control Levels 1 and 2," which are physical control materials used in clinical chemistry assays, not software.

Based on the provided information, yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the controls are used in "Clinical laboratories performing chemistry assays" for "estimating precision and monitoring test system performance." This aligns perfectly with the definition of an IVD, which are reagents, instruments, and systems intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions, including a determination of the state of health, in order to cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent disease or its sequelae.
  • Device Description: The device is described as "QUIKCHECK Unassayed Chemistry Control Levels 1 and 2." Controls used in clinical chemistry assays are a type of IVD.
  • Intended User / Care Setting: The intended user is "Clinical laboratories," which is a typical setting for the use of IVDs.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device" (CONFORMANCE MCC-LiquiChem Unassayed Chemistry Control) strongly suggests that this device is being compared to another legally marketed IVD, further supporting its classification as an IVD.

The fact that it's an "Unassayed Chemistry Control" means it's a material with known characteristics used to verify the performance of a test, which is a fundamental component of quality control in IVD testing.

§ 862.1660 Quality control material (assayed and unassayed).

(a)
Identification. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) for clinical chemistry is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to estimate test precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations that may arise from reagent or analytical instrument variation. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys. This generic type of device includes controls (assayed and unassayed) for blood gases, electrolytes, enzymes, multianalytes (all kinds), single (specified) analytes, or urinalysis controls.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). Except when intended for use in donor screening tests, quality control materials (assayed and unassayed) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.

Dear Vipin D. Shah:

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, Druq, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions The general controls provisions of the Act of the Act. include requirements for annual reqistration, 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 Requlations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. ਕੇ substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical General requlation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, Devices: through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP requlation may result in requlatory 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.
