Intended Use
This enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is indicated for the detection of autoantibodies to the antigen Proteinase 3 in human serum. The presence of PR-3 antibodies, in combination with clinical observations and other serological tests, can aid in the diagnosis of Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) and other conditions associated with elevated anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)
Device Description
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) designed for the detection and measurement of autoantibodies to the antigen Proteinase 3 in human serum. The ELISA methodology is commonly used for serum antibody evaluations. Purified PR3 antigen has been attached to the inner surfaces of the microwell plate. During the initial incubation step, antibodies in patient serum bind specifically to the immobilized antigen and remain in place after a wash step. A second antibody which is conjugated to horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is used to recognize the "heavy + light" chain regions of the patient's antibodies remaining after the wash step. In the wells where the second antibody remains bound, the conjugated HRP catalyzes a color change in the substrate, tetramethyl benzidine (TMB). After the reaction is stopped, the color is read in an EIA Plate reader.

No
The device description and performance studies detail a standard ELISA assay, which is a biochemical test and does not involve AI or ML for its operation or interpretation. The summary explicitly states "Not Found" for mentions of AI, DNN, or ML.

No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic test designed to detect autoantibodies in human serum, which aids in diagnosis rather than providing therapy or treatment.

Yes

This device is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) designed to detect autoantibodies that "can aid in the diagnosis of Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) and other conditions." This directly implies its use in diagnosing health conditions.

No

The device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) test that utilizes an ELISA methodology, which is a laboratory-based assay involving physical reagents and a plate reader, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the device is "indicated for the detection of autoantibodies to the antigen Proteinase 3 in human serum." This is a classic description of an in vitro diagnostic test, as it analyzes a biological sample (human serum) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis.
  • Device Description: The description details an ELISA methodology, which is a common technique used in IVD tests to detect and measure substances in biological samples.
  • Sample Type: The device uses "human serum" as the sample, which is a biological specimen.
  • Purpose: The purpose is to "aid in the diagnosis of Wegener's granulomatosis (WG) and other conditions associated with elevated anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)." This directly relates to providing diagnostic information.
  • Performance Studies: The inclusion of performance studies like precision, comparison testing, interfering substances, and prozone testing are standard for demonstrating the analytical performance of an IVD device.
  • Key Metrics: The reporting of sensitivity and specificity are key metrics used to evaluate the clinical performance of IVD tests.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a predicate device (K954105; Scimedx EIA Kit For the Detection of Anti-PR3 Antibodies) which is also an EIA kit for detecting anti-PR3 antibodies further confirms that this device falls within the category of IVDs.

All of these factors align with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

(a)
Identification. A multiple autoantibodies immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the autoantibodies (antibodies produced against the body's own tissues) in serum and other body fluids. Measurement of multiple autoantibodies aids in the diagnosis of autoimmune disorders (disease produced when the body's own tissues are injured by autoantibodies).(b)
