Intended Use

OPUS hLH Controls are quality control materials intended for use in the clinical laboratory to assess or verify the performance of the OPUS hLH assay, run on the OPUS analyzers.

Device Description

OPUS hLH Controls are intended for use as quality control material to monitor the accuracy and precision of the OPUS hLH assay run on the OPUS analyzers.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) Notification for the OPUS hLH Controls, a quality control material, not an AI/ML powered device. As such, many of the requested categories in the prompt (e.g., sample size for test set, number of experts for ground truth, adjudication method, MRMC study, standalone performance, training set sample size, how ground truth was established for training set) are not applicable to this type of medical device submission.

However, I can extract information related to the device performance characteristics, which serve as the acceptance criteria for this quality control material.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Acceptance Criteria (Performance Metric)Device Performance
Intra-assay Precision (Overall %CV)Ranged from 4.51% to 6.48% (for three levels of control material)
Inter-assay Precision (Overall %CV)Ranged from 2.48% to 6.41% (for three levels of control material)

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

  • Sample Size:
    • Intra-assay precision: 20 replicates for each of the three levels of control material (total of 60 measurements).
    • Inter-assay precision: Duplicate measurements over a five-day period, totaling 20 replicates for each of the three levels of control material (total of 60 measurements).
  • Data Provenance: The document does not specify the country of origin of the data or whether it was retrospective or prospective. It is a submission for a quality control material, and such studies are typically performed in a controlled laboratory setting by the manufacturer (Dade-Behring Inc., located in Westwood, MA, USA).

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

Not applicable. This device is a quality control material. Its "ground truth" (i.e., expected LH levels) is established during its manufacturing and assay process, not by expert review of patient data. The study focuses on the precision of the control material when run on an analyzer.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

Not applicable. There is no expert adjudication for the performance of a quality control material. The performance is assessed purely based on statistical precision metrics.

5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

Not applicable. This device is a quality control material, not an AI/ML-powered diagnostic tool requiring human reader studies.

6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

Not applicable. This device is a quality control material for an immunoassay, not an algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used

For quality control materials, the "ground truth" refers to the target or assigned values for the analytes within the control. These are established through:

  • Manufacturer's internal assays: Batch testing during production to determine the concentration of hLH at each control level.
  • Assigned values: The control material is "assayed," meaning it comes with lot-specific values, likely determined by the manufacturer against a reference method or standard.

The study then assesses how precisely the OPUS hLH assay measures these known levels within the control material.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. Quality control materials do not typically have a "training set" in the context of AI/ML or classification algorithms.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable, as there is no "training set" for this type of device.

OPUS hLH Controls: Classification Number: Quality Control Material Class | (862.1660)

Identification of the legally marketed device: 3 .

OPUS® hCG

Device Description: 4 . Proposed

OPUS hLH Controls are intended for use as quality control material to monitor the accuracy and precision of the OPUS hLH assay run on the OPUS analyzers.

Proposed Device Intended Use: 5 .

OPUS hLH controls are intended for use as an assayed quality control material in the clinical laboratory to assess or verify the performance of the OPUS hLH assay.

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

The OPUS hLH Controls are substantially equivalent in intended use to the OPUS hCG Controls. Both products arein vitro diagnostic reagents intended for use as a quality control material to monitor specific laboratory procedures. The OPUS hLH Controls, like the OPUS hCG Controls, are a tri-level serum-based matrix controls for specific OPUS assays only. Both controls are provided with lot specific values for the Behring OPUS Immunoassay System.

The OPUS hLH Controls differ from the OPUS hCG Controls in that the OPUS hLH Controls are for use with the OPUS hLH assay and contain known levels of LH, while the OPUS hCG Controls are for use with the OPUS hCG assay and contain known levels of hCG.

7. Device Performance Characteristics:

Precision

Intra-assay precision was determined by the evaluation of three levels of control material in replicates of twenty (20) each. %CV ranged from 4.51% to 6.48%.

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 2.48% to 6.41%.
