No
The summary describes a standard automated chemistry analyzer performing photometric and potentiometric measurements, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No.
This device is described as a discrete photometric chemistry analyzer intended for clinical use to measure a variety of analytes and electrolytes in samples; it provides diagnostic information, not therapy.

Yes

The device is intended to measure a variety of analytes and the concentration of electrolytes in samples, which are used to measure clinical chemistries. This falls under the definition of a diagnostic device as it provides information for diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "discrete photometric chemistry analyzer" and performs physical actions like "pipetting, preparing filtrates, heating, and measuring color intensity," indicating it is a hardware device with integrated software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's a "discrete photometric chemistry analyzer for clinical use" and is intended to "measure a variety of analytes" in "samples." This aligns with the definition of an IVD, which is used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of disease.
  • Device Description: The description further clarifies that it's for "quantitative analysis of clinical chemistries" and measures "electrolytes, sodium, potassium, and chloride, in samples." These are all typical measurements performed by IVD devices on biological samples.
  • Clinical Use: The intended use and description both specify "clinical use," which is a key characteristic of IVD devices used in healthcare settings.
  • Analytes Measured: The specific analytes mentioned (glucose, total protein, GGTP, sodium, potassium, chloride) are commonly measured in clinical laboratories using IVD tests.
  • Comparison to Predicate Devices: The predicate devices listed (Synermed ™ IR 500 Chemistry Analyzer, Roche® Cobas® Mira Plus, IL943™ Automatic Flame Photometer, Buchler Instruments Digital Chloridometer, AVL 9181 Electrolyte Analyzer) are all known IVD devices used for similar purposes.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the ALCYON Analyzer clearly fits the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

and the Roche® Cobas® Mira Plus systems utilize absorbance photometry to perform and output quantitative results for kinetic and endpoint clinical chemistries. For analytes, all three analyzers determine the concentration of unknown samples from a standard curve generated with known analyte concentrations. For enzymes, all three analyzers determine the activity of unknown samples by measuring change in absorbance per unit of time. Substantial equivalence has also been demonstrated between the ALCYON 300i and the IL943™ Automatic Flame Photometer (K823480), the Buchler Instruments Digital Chloridometer (K791312), and the AVL 9181 Electrolyte Analyzer (K972673). All four analyzers are used to analyze for electrolytes. All analyzers are calibrated with known concentration calibrator material. The ALCYON 300i and the AVL 9181 Electrolyte Analyzer both utilize Ion-Selective Electrodes.

Intended Use:

The ALCYON Analyzer is an automated chemistry analyzer for in vitro diagnostic use. The analyzer performs quantitative kinetic and endpoint determinations of specific analytes. The ALCYON 300i Analyzer with the ISE Module additionally measures the concentration of the electrolytes, sodium, potassium, and chloride, in samples, using indirect potentiometry.
