Intended Use
The Roche Diagnostics, Boehringer Mannheim Liquid Total Bilirubin reagent is intended for use for the quantitative determination of total bilirubin in serum and plasma of adults and neonates. It is for use on automated clinical chemistry analyzers. According to the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21 (Food and Drugs), Part 862.1110, a bilirubin (total or direct) test system is a device intended to measure the levels of bilirubin (total or direct) in plasma or serum. Measurements of the levels of bilirubin, an organic compound formed during the normal and abnormal distruction of red blood cells, if used in the diagnosis and treatment of liver, hemolytic, hematological, and metabolic disorders, including hepatitis and gall bladder block.
Device Description
Total bilirubin, in the presence of a suitable solubilizing agent, is coupled with a diazonium ion in a strongly acid medium (ph 1 - 2). Bilirubin + diazonium ion acid -> Azobilirubin The intensity of the color of the azobilirubin formed is proportional to the total bilirubin concentration and can be measured photometrically.
More Information

No
The device description details a chemical reaction and photometric measurement, with no mention of AI or ML. The performance studies compare the reagent's performance to existing chemical reagent systems.

No
The device is a reagent intended for in vitro diagnostic use to measure total bilirubin levels, which assists in diagnosis and treatment, but does not directly provide therapy.

Yes

The device quantitatively determines total bilirubin, and according to the Code of Federal Regulations, bilirubin level measurements are "used in the diagnosis and treatment of liver, hemolytic, hematological, and metabolic disorders."

No

The device description clearly outlines a chemical reagent and its reaction, which is a physical substance, not software. The device is intended for use on automated clinical chemistry analyzers, which are hardware devices.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "quantitative determination of total bilirubin in serum and plasma of adults and neonates." This involves testing biological samples (serum and plasma) outside of the body.
  • Regulatory Definition: The document references the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21 (Food and Drugs), Part 862.1110, which defines a bilirubin test system as a device intended to measure bilirubin levels in plasma or serum. This aligns perfectly with the device's purpose.
  • Purpose in Diagnosis and Treatment: The regulatory definition also states that measurements of bilirubin levels are used in the "diagnosis and treatment of liver, hemolytic, hematological, and metabolic disorders." This confirms the diagnostic nature of the test.
  • Device Description: The description details a chemical reaction that occurs with the sample (serum or plasma) to produce a measurable result (color intensity). This is characteristic of an in vitro diagnostic test.

Therefore, based on its intended use, the regulatory definition provided, and the description of how it functions, the Roche Diagnostics, Boehringer Mannheim Liquid Total Bilirubin reagent is clearly an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Luann Ochs:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of June 15, 1998.

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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.
