Intended Use
The Randox Laboratories Limited Bilirubin Test Kit is an in vitro diagnostic reagent for the quantitative determination of total and direct bilirubin in human serum and plasma. This method uses diazotized sulphanilic acid to measure bilirubin. To measure total bilirubin the sample is first incubated with caffeine which releases bilirubin from albumin. Direct (conjugate) bilirubin is determined in the absence of caffeine. Measurements of bilirubin are used in the diagnosis of liver disease, in the detection of haemolytic anaemia and to evaluate jaundice.

No
The summary describes a standard in vitro diagnostic reagent kit for chemical analysis, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No
Explanation: This device is an in vitro diagnostic reagent used for the quantitative determination of bilirubin, which aids in diagnosis. It does not provide therapy or treatment.

Yes
The intended use explicitly states that measurements of bilirubin, which this device determines, are used in the "diagnosis of liver disease, in the detection of haemolytic anaemia and to evaluate jaundice." This clearly indicates its role in diagnosis.

No

The device is an in vitro diagnostic reagent kit, which is a chemical substance used for testing, not a software-only device.

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

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states: "The Randox Laboratories Limited Bilirubin Test Kit is an in vitro diagnostic reagent for the quantitative determination of total and direct bilirubin in human serum and plasma."

The "Device Description" section also confirms this: "The Randox Laboratories Limited Bilirubin Test Kit is an in vitro diagnostic reagent."

These statements clearly indicate that the device is intended for use in vitro (outside the body) to diagnose or aid in the diagnosis of medical conditions by analyzing human samples (serum and plasma).

Dear Dr. Armstrong:

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, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, 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 Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A 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 regulation may result in regulatory In addition, FDA may publish further announcements action. concerning your device in the Federal Reqister. 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 regulations.
