Intended Use
The Cholesterol test system is useful in monitoring LDL and HDL cholesterol levels. Patients at risk include males over 45 years and females over 55 years, those with family history of coronary heart disease, strokes, hypertension or diabetes and those who smoke. Depending on a patients' number of risk factors, treatment can be medication or diet restrictions.

Not Found

No
The summary provides no information about the device's internal workings or technology, and there are no mentions of AI, ML, or related concepts.

No.
The device is used for monitoring cholesterol levels, which is a diagnostic purpose, not a therapeutic one. It helps identify risk factors that might lead to treatment, but the device itself does not provide treatment.

Yes
The device is used to monitor LDL and HDL cholesterol levels, which are indicators used to assess a patient's health status and risk for conditions like coronary heart disease, strokes, hypertension, or diabetes. This falls under the definition of a diagnostic device.

Unknown

The provided 510(k) summary lacks a "Device Description" section, which is crucial for determining if the device is software-only. The intended use describes a "Cholesterol test system," which typically involves hardware for sample analysis. Without a description of the system's components, it's impossible to confirm if it's purely software.

Based on the provided information, the device described is likely an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the system is used for "monitoring LDL and HDL cholesterol levels." This involves testing biological samples (likely blood) outside of the body to gain information about a patient's health status. This is a core characteristic of IVDs.
  • Monitoring Cholesterol Levels: Cholesterol testing is a standard in vitro diagnostic procedure used to assess cardiovascular risk and guide treatment decisions.

While the "Device Description" is not found, the intended use strongly points towards an IVD. The other sections being "Not Found" don't negate the primary function described in the intended use.

Dear Ms. Franks:

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 Devices: General requlation (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 regulation may result in regulatory In addition, FDA may publish further announcements action. concerning your device in the Federal Register. 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.
