ChemTrak AccuMeter® Cholesterol Test (K905405)
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "non-instrumented, enzymatic assay" with a "direct visual read-out" and "stable, dry chemistry reagents." There is no mention of any computational or algorithmic components that would suggest the use of AI or ML.
No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic test for measuring total cholesterol and is used for screening and monitoring cholesterol levels, not for treating any condition.
Yes
The device is described as an "enzymatic assay intended for the in vitro quantitative determination of total cholesterol in fingerstick whole blood," which is used for "screening and monitoring cholesterol," directly indicating its role in diagnosis and monitoring of health conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "non-instrumented, enzymatic assay" based on "stable, dry chemistry reagents embedded in a flow device with a factory calibrated scale." This describes a physical test kit, not a software-only device.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The description explicitly states the device is intended for "in vitro quantitative determination of total cholesterol in fingerstick whole blood." "In vitro" means "in glass" or "outside the body," which is a key characteristic of IVDs.
- Device Description: The device uses "enzymatic assay" and "dry chemistry reagents embedded in a flow device," which are typical components and methods used in IVD tests to analyze biological samples.
- Sample Type: It uses "fingerstick whole blood," a biological sample taken from the body for analysis.
- Purpose: The purpose is to "screen and monitor cholesterol," which is a diagnostic and monitoring function performed on a biological sample.
The fact that it's a "non-instrumented" test and intended for "physician directed use (PDU) by the patient" doesn't change its classification as an IVD. It's still performing a diagnostic test on a biological sample outside of the body.

Summary of Performance Studies
Analytical and Clinical Testing:
Linear Range:
Results from NCCLS Linearity Protocol testing and from testing 40 normal and abnormal clinical samples demonstrated that the linear range of the ENA C TTM Total Cholesterol Test is 120 mg/dL to 360 mg/dL.
Interfering Substances:
Studies of the recovery of cholesterol in the presence of potentially interfering substances were carried out. No interference was found in samples containing up to 10 mg/dL ascorbic acid, 11 mg/dL uric acid, 250 mg/dL of hemoglobin, 850 mg/dL of triglycerides, or 20 mg/dL bilirubin. Acetaminophen interferes at a level of 1 mg/dL.
Precision:
The precision of the devices has been established by using data for the ENA C T™ device from the clinical studies. Precision was determined by obtaining the differences between self test/self read and professional test/professional read devices for each subject at each site. The CVs were 5.2%, 6.7%, and 8.8% for Site 1, 2, and 3 respectively, with an average CV for all sites of 6.9%. These results demonstrate that the visually read ENA-C-T™ Total Cholesterol Test was reproducible in the hands of patients trained in the use of the device.
Clinical Studies:
A total of 136 paired fingerstick whole blood and venous samples were tested during clinical studies at three POL sites. Fingerstick whole blood samples were assayed at the sites by the ENA.C.T™ Total Cholesterol Test and venous samples were assayed at a Cholesterol Reference Method Network Laboratory (CRMLN) by the Abell-Kendall serum reference method or enzymatic method. For the comparison between the ENA-C-T™ Total Cholesterol Test (PDU) and the CRMLN method, the least squares regression equation for all sites was y = 1.018x + 2.13, with a correlation coefficient of r = 0.917. Bias at 200 mg/dL and at 240 mg/dL was 2.86% and 2.69%, respectively. For the comparison between the ENACT™ Total Cholesterol Test (PDU) and the ENA-C-T™ Total Cholesterol Test (POL), the least squares regression equation for all sites was y = 0.931x + 13.8, with a correlation coefficient of r = 0.899.
Key Metrics
Correlation coefficient (r) = 0.917 (ENA-C-T™ PDU vs. CRMLN method)
Bias at 200 mg/dL = 2.86%
Bias at 240 mg/dL = 2.69%
Correlation coefficient (r) = 0.899 (ENA-C-T™ PDU vs. ENA-C-T™ POL)
Average CV = 6.9% for paired fingerstick whole blood samples.

Intended Use and Indications for Use
The ActiMed ENA-C'T™ Total Cholesterol Test is a noninstrumented, enzymatic assay intended for the in vitro quantitative determination of total cholesterol in fingerstick whole blood. It is indicated for physician directed use (PDU) by the patient for screening and monitoring cholesterol.
In a PDU monitoring application, the patient's physician (or other medical professional under the direction of a physician) initially trains the patient to use the test properly and provides information on the proper interpretation of results and limitations of the test. With the physician directed indication for use, patients on cholesterol lowering therapy can test their own total cholesterol at home and provide the results to their physician or other healthcare organization which works with the physician to maintain compliance on the therapy.
In a PDU screening application, a physician (or other medical professional under the direction of a physician) initially trains a group of individuals to use the test properly and provides information on the proper intervretation of results and limitations of the test. The physician directed use version of the ENA C.T™ Total Cholesterol Test kits are then distributed to the group of individuals who can use the test at home and then communicate their results to the physician or healthcare organization.
Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence
The ENA-C-T™ Total Cholesterol Test is based on stable, dry chemistry reagents embedded in a flow device with a factory calibrated scale. The device provides a direct visual read-out of test results. It has built-in controls to indicate that a sufficient volume of whole blood has been added as sample, to verify that the reagents are functioning, and to confirm when the test has been completed. The test device is self-actuating, requiring neither timing nor handling between addition of the sample and reading the result.
The ENA·C·T™ Total Cholesterol Test - Physicians Directed Use (PDU) is substantially equivalent to the ENA-C-T™ Total Cholesterol Test (POL) in terms of intended use, design, materials, operational features, and performance. Both devices are based upon an enzymatic reaction that occurs when whole blood is added to dry chemistry reagents embedded in a flow device. Both devices are standardized to the National Reference System for Cholesterol (NRS/CHOL). Results from both devices are read visually within approximately 15-20 minutes of addition of sample to the device. For both
2
versions of the ENA.C.T™ Total Cholesterol Test, results in mg/dL are read directly from a lot-specific, factory-calibrated scale printed on the device.
Both the ENA.C.T™ Total Cholesterol Test (PDU) and the ENA.C.T™ Total Cholesterol Test (POL) have built-in controls. Both versions of the ENA·C·T™ Total Cholesterol test have controls to indicate that a sufficient volume of whole blood has been added as sample, to verify that the reagents are functioning, and to confirm when the test has been completed.
Performance characteristics generated during analytical and clinical studies on the ENA.C.T™ Total Cholesterol Test (PDU) are comparable to those generated in the same study for the ENA-C T™ Total Cholesterol Test (POL). The linear range of both versions of the ENA-C-T™ Total Cholesterol Test is 120 mg/dL to 360 mg/dL. The recovery of cholesterol in the presence of potentially interfering substances was determined for the ENA.C.T™ device. No interference was found in samples containing up to 10 mg/dL ascorbic acid. 11 mg/dL uric acid, 250 mg/dL of hemoglobin, 850 mg/dL of triglycerides, or 20 mg/dL bilirubin. Acetaminophen interferes at a level of 1 mg/dL. The test is affected by high concentrations of ascorbic acid.
Precision results for these two visually read tests are comparable, with percent coefficients of variation generally less than 6.9% for paired fingerstick whole blood samples.
In clinical studies at three POL sites, ENA-C-T™ Total Cholesterol Test (PDU), ENA C T™ Total Cholesterol Test (POL), and CRMLN results were generated on 136 paired fingerstick whole blood and venous samples. Correlation's between the ENA-CT™ Total Cholesterol Test (PDU) and the CRMLN methods and between the ENAC TTM Total Cholesterol Test (PDU)and the ENA-C T™ Total Cholesterol Test (POL) were acceptable. Thus, the ENA C T™ Total Cholesterol Test (PDU) is substantially equivalent to the ENA-C.T™ Total Cholesterol Test (POL) in terms of performance characteristics, as well as intended use, design, materials, and operational features.

Precision studies conducted at three POL sites have demonstrated that the visually read ENA-C-T™ Total Cholesterol Test is reproducible, with an average CV of 6.9% for paired fingerstick whole blood samples from a total of 136 subjects. Clinical studies compared the ENA-C-T™ Total Cholesterol Test (PDU) to the CRMLN serum reference method and the ENA CT™ Total Cholesterol Test (PDU) to the ENA-C-T™ Total Cholesterol Test (POL) on samples from 136 patients. Bias of the ENA-C-T™ device (PDU), compared to the CRMLN serum reference method was 2.86% at the 200 mg/dL level and

2.69% at the 240 mg/dL for the combined sites. These figures are well within the recommendation of the Laboratory Standardization Panel (LSP) on Blood Cholesterol Measurement that bias not exceed 3%. Correlations between the ENA-C-T™ device (PDU) and the CRMLN Method and between the ENA C T™ device (PDU) and the ENA C T™ device (POL) were within 10%. Thus, the ENA C TTM Total Cholesterol Test (PDU) has demonstrated acceptable precision, bias and accuracy, and has been shown to be substantially equivalent to the ENA.C.Tmm Total Cholesterol Test (POL).
