No
The summary describes a chemical assay for measuring phosphorus concentration using a dry film cartridge and analyzer. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices. The performance studies focus on standard analytical chemistry metrics.

No
This device is for in vitro diagnostic use, meaning it aids in diagnosis by measuring substances in samples from the body, not for directly treating a disease.

Yes

The device is explicitly stated as being "For in vitro diagnostic use" and is intended "to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of various disorders."

No

The device description explicitly states it is a single-use disposable in vitro diagnostic test cartridge used with an analyzer, indicating it is a hardware component and not software only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The document explicitly states "For in vitro diagnostic use". It also describes the purpose of the device as quantitatively measuring inorganic phosphorus from biological specimens (whole blood, plasma, or serum) to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of various disorders. This aligns perfectly with the definition of an in vitro diagnostic device, which is used to examine specimens taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
  • Device Description: The description refers to the cartridges as "a single use disposable in vitro diagnostic test cartridge".
  • Performance Studies: The document includes performance characteristics like detection limit, reportable range, accuracy, precision, and method comparison, which are typical evaluations for IVD devices.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a predicate device (Vitros PHOS DT) which is also an IVD, further supports the classification of this device as an IVD.

Therefore, based on the provided information, this device is clearly intended and described as an In Vitro Diagnostic.

  • A. General equivalency claim
    The ability to monitor analyte-specific biochemical reactions in dry film and other formats is widely recognized and has gained widespread acceptance for use in chemistry assays.

Phosphorus in vitro diagnostic products, in both dry film and other formats, are already on the U.S. market. These products utilize dry film and other formats. These products utilize either direct complexation of inorganic phosphate or coupled reactions to form a chromogen. For example,

  • complexation of inorganic phosphate with ammonium l. Dry film molybdate coupled to conversion to heteropolymolbydate blue dye by reaction with p-methylaminophenol sulfate.

IV. Device Description

CARESIDE™ Phosphorus cartridges are used with the CARESIDE™ Analyzer to quantitatively measure phosphorus concentration in anti-coagulated whole blood, plasma or serum specimens. The CARESIDE™ Phosphorus cartridge, a single use disposable in vitro diagnostic test cartridge, aids in specimen separation and delivers a measured volume of plasma or serum to a dry film to initiate the measurement of phosphorus concentration. The film cartridge (patent pending) contains all reagents necessary to measure phosphorus concentration.

Explanation of Device Function A.

Each CARESIDE™ Phosphorus cartridge consists of a phosphorus-specific multi-layer reagent film mounted in a plastic base with a hinged lid. The user introduces the anticoagulated whole blood, serum, or plasma specimen into the cartridge sample deposition well, closes the lid and inserts the cartridge into the CARESIDE™ Analyzer.

Once loaded, the CARESIDE™ analyzer scans the cartridge barcode, brings the cartridge and the contained specimen to 37℃, and spins the cartridge to move the sample from the sample deposition well into the cartridge channels and chambers. As the cartridge continues to spin, the blood cells are separated from the plasma/serum and the cells accumulate in the separation well. Approximately ten microliters of plasma (or serum, as applicable) remain in the metering passage. Any excess sample flows into an overflow well.

The plasma (or serum, as applicable) is automatically dispensed onto the multi-layer reagent film. The test specimen is distributed uniformly by the spreading layer. Large molecular components, such as proteins and dye components are filtered out as the specimen passes into the reaction layer. Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) catalyzes the reaction of the inorganic phosphorus (H2PO4, HPO4") reacts with xanthosine to form xanthine and ribose-1-phosphoric acid. Xanthine oxidase (XOD) then catalyzes the oxidation of xanthine in the presence of water and oxygen to produce uric acid and hydrogen peroxide. Peroxidase (POD) then catalyzes the conversion of leuco dye and hydrogen peroxide to produce an imidazole blue dye and water. The intensity of the color as measured by the amount of reflected light at 655 nanometers directly relates to the specimen inorganic phosphorus concentration.

Test Reaction Sequence:

Xanthosine + inorganic phosphate -> Xanthine + Ribose-1-phosphoric acid

Xanthine + H2O + Oxygen -> Uric Acid + Hydrogen Peroxide

Hydrogen Peroxide + Leuco-dye -> Imidazole Blue Dye + 2 H20

As the cartridge spins, a photodiode measures film reflectance of light emitted from a wavelength-specific light emitting diode (LED) at a fixed time. The analyzer uses the reflectance measurements and the lot-specific standard curve to calculate phosphorus concentration.

B. Test Summary

Phosphate is required for generation of bony tissue and functions in the metabolism of glucose and lipids, in the maintenance of acid-base balance, and in the storage and transfer on energy from one site in the body to another. Phosphate enters the cell with glucose and is lowered after carbohydrate ingestion. For these reasons, blood phosphate levels must be controlled within narrow limits.

Determination of whole blood, serum or plasma phosphorus levels is used in the diagnosis and treatment of various disorders including parathyroid gland and kidney diseases, and vitamin D imbalance. Phosphorus levels are always evaluated in relation to calcium levels because there is an inverse relationship between the two. When phosphate rises rapidly and calcium drops, there is a high risk of arrhythmias and muscle twitching. Excess serum levels of one causes the kidneys to excrete the other.

Hypophosphatemia may be seen in hyperparathyroidism, Fanconi's syndrome, vitamin D deficiency in children (rickets) and adults (osteomalacia), chronic use of antacids, chronic alcoholism, malabsorption syndromes, hyperinsulinism and occasionally during hyperalimentation therapy.

Causes of hyperphosphatemia include chronic renal failure, Addison's disease, excessive ingestion of vitamin D. cytotoxic treatment of certain leukemias and lymphomas, metastatic bone tumors, hypocalcemia, diabetic ketoacidosis, and healing bone fractures.
