The summary describes a reagent kit for a laboratory assay, focusing on chemical reactions and analytical performance metrics like slope, intercept, r-value, and imprecision. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any computational algorithms typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices.
No
The device is a reagent kit used for the quantitative determination of Hemoglobin A1c concentrations to aid in diagnosis or monitoring, not to treat or prevent a disease.
Yes
The device is intended for the quantitative determination of Hemoglobin A1c concentrations in whole blood, which is a common diagnostic test for diabetes and prediabetes. The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states its purpose in conjunction with SYNCHRON Clinical Systems.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "Reagent kit" containing "two reagents, Hb and A1c," which are physical components used in a laboratory setting, not software.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "quantitative determination of Hemoglobin A1c concentrations in whole blood." This involves testing a biological sample (whole blood) in vitro (outside the body) to obtain diagnostic information.
- Device Description: It describes a "Reagent kit" used for determining concentrations in whole blood, which is typical of IVD products.
- Performance Studies: The document includes performance studies like method comparison and imprecision, which are standard for demonstrating the analytical performance of IVD devices.
- Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device" (K934070; Tina-quant® Hemoglobin A1c Assay) is a strong indicator that this device is being compared to an already cleared IVD device, a common practice in regulatory submissions for IVDs.
All these elements align with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The SYNCHRON Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) Reagent kit, in conjunction with the SYNCHRON Hemoglobin A1c Calibrators, is intended for the quantitative determination of hemoglobin A1c concentration as a percentage of total hemoglobin in whole blood on SYNCHRON Systems.

§ 864.7470 Glycosylated hemoglobin assay.
(a)
Identification. A glycosylated hemoglobin assay is a device used to measure the glycosylated hemoglobins (A1a , A1b , and A1c ) in a patient's blood by a column chromatographic procedure. Measurement of glycosylated hemoglobin is used to assess the level of control of a patient's diabetes and to determine the proper insulin dosage for a patient. Elevated levels of glycosylated hemoglobin indicate uncontrolled diabetes in a patient.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
