Intended Use

The Fetal D Tection Kit is indicated for use to test blood samples drawn from D negative mothers who have delivered D positive infants. The blood sample should be drawn shortly after all products of conception have been delivered, and then assayed as soon as possible, since RhIg should be administered to the mother within 72 hours of delivery to be effective. Positive result in this qualitative test indicates the need to perform a quantitative test to determine if more than one 300 mg dose of RhIg will adequately protect the mother from being sensitized to the D antigen.

Device Description

Not Found

AI/ML Overview

This looks like a 510(k) clearance letter for the "Fetal D Tection Kit" and does not contain the detailed study information you are requesting. A 510(k) letter primarily indicates that the FDA has found the device to be "substantially equivalent" to a legally marketed predicate device.

The information you are asking for, such as acceptance criteria, reported device performance, sample sizes, expert qualifications, and study designs, would typically be found in the manufacturer's 510(k) submission document itself, or in associated study reports. These details are generally not included in the FDA's clearance letter.

Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request using only the provided text.

Re : K980314 Trade Name: Fetal D Tection Kit Regulatory Class: II Product Code: LIM Dated: January 26, 1998 Received: January 27, 1998

Dear Mr. Minetti:

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 qeneral 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 requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP requlation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements 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.

Under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA-88), this device may require a CLIA complexity categorization. To determine if it does, you should contact the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) at (770)488-7655.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4588. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97).

§ 864.7455 Fetal hemoglobin assay.

(a)
Identification. A fetal hemoglobin assay is a device that is used to determine the presence and distribution of fetal hemoglobin (hemoglobin F) in red cells or to measure the amount of fetal hemoglobin present. The assay may be used to detect fetal red cells in the maternal circulation or to detect the elevated levels of fetal hemoglobin exhibited in cases of hemoglobin abnormalities such as thalassemia (a hereditary hemolytic anemia characterized by a decreased synthesis of one or more types of hemoglobin polypeptide chains). The hemoglobin determination may be made by methods such as electrophoresis, alkali denaturation, column chromatography, or radial immunodiffusion.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). A fetal hemoglobin stain intended for use with a fetal hemoglobin assay is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 864.9.
