The description focuses on the biochemical and optical detection methods, and there is no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.
No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic system used for monitoring patient anticoagulation therapy, not for directly treating a condition or restoring a function.
Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The AvocetpT is an in vitro diagnostic system..." This directly identifies the device as diagnostic.
No
The device description clearly outlines a hardware system involving a membrane, dry reagents, optical monitoring, and fluorescence kinetics analysis. This is not a software-only device.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the AvocetpT is an "in vitro diagnostic system".
- Device Description: The description details how the device analyzes a biological sample (blood or plasma) outside of the body to provide a diagnostic result (prothrombin time/INR). This is the core function of an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Avocetor is an in vitro diagnostic system that provides a quantitative prothrombin time result, expressed as an International Normalized Ratio (INR). It is intended for use by health care professionals in monitoring patients who are on warfarin-type (coumarin) anticoagulation therapy. The Avocetor is an in vitro diagnostic system that provides a quantitative prothrombin time result, expressed as an International Normalized Ratio (INR). It uses fresh capillary whole blood, citrated venous whole blood or citrated venous plasma samples. It is intended for use by health care professionals in monitoring patients who are on warfarin-type (coumarin) anticoagulation therapy.

Device Description
The Avocetpr is a membrane-based, dry-reagent system for use with fresh capillary or venous whole blood, and citrated venous whole blood or citrated plasma. The system uses an membrane to separate plasma from red cells. The membrane contains calcium and thromboplastin, and permits the reactions of the complete extrinsic pathway to occur with minimal distortion from membrane surface interactions. Thrombin generation is monitored optically using a rhodamine-110-based fluorescent thrombin substrate. Fluorescence kinetics are analyzed to produce a prothrombin-time-equivalent parameter that is converted to an international normalized ratio (INR) value.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The accuracy of the Avocetor was compared to the CoaguChek and a reference method in field studies and found to be equivalent (r>0.95). Precision and linearity evaluations were done on the Avocetor and found to be acceptable. Additional testing of interfering substances, hematocrit, RBC abnormalities and factor deficiencies were performed and the results are reflected in the product labeling.

Intended use: The Avocetor is an in vitro diagnostic system that provides a quantitative prothrombin time result, expressed as an International Normalized Ratio (INR). It is intended for use by health care professionals in monitoring patients who are on warfarin-type (coumarin) anticoagulation therapy.

Comparison to The Avocetor is substantially equivalent in materials, design and intended use to other products that measure predicate device Prothrombin Time INR in human blood. Most notably, it is substantially equivalent to the CoaguChek™, manufactured by the Boehringer Mannheim Corporation. Both products are prothrombin time devices, have the same intended use and serve the same professional, point-of-care market. The AvocetpT and the CoaguChek both measure the extrinsic coagulation pathway, expressed as an International Normalized Ratio. Both products measure the elapsed time between the start of the reaction and the formation of thrombin using a dry reagent thromboplastin. While CoaguChek measures this formation as expressed through the conversion of fibrinogen (a thrombin substrate) to fibrin via the motion of magnetic particles, the AvocetpT measures this formation as expressed through the conversion of (Tos-Gly-Pro-Arg)2-Rhodamine 110 (a thrombin substrate) to free Rhodamine via a change in fluorescence.

Summary of The accuracy of the Avocetor was compared to the performance data CoaguChek and a reference method in field studies and found to be equivalent (r>0.95). Precision and linearity evaluations were done on the Avocetor and found to be acceptable.
