Intended Use
The Urine/CSF Protein assay is used for the quantitative determination of protein in human urine or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) on the AEROSET System. Identification of urinary protein is used in the diagnosis and treatment of disease conditions such as renal or heart diseases or thyroid disorders, which are characterized by proteinuria or albuminuria.
Device Description
Urine/CSF Protein is an in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative determination of protein in human urine or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The Urine/CSF Protein assay is a clinical chemistry assay using a turbidimetric procedure in which benzethonium chloride is used as the protein denaturing agent. Proteins present in the urine or CSF are denatured by benzethonium chloride resulting in the formation of a fine suspension which is quantitated turbidimetrically at 405 nm. The reagent has been modified to overcome the problem of high concentration (Hook) effect, where very high concentrations of protein in urine can cause an apparent zero or low reading.

No
The device description and performance studies describe a standard turbidimetric clinical chemistry assay without any mention of AI or ML.

No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic assay used for the quantitative determination of protein in human urine or CSF, which aids in diagnosis. It does not provide treatment or therapy.

Yes

The device is an in vitro diagnostic assay used for the quantitative determination of protein in human urine or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and the output is explicitly stated as being used in the diagnosis and treatment of disease conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "in vitro diagnostic assay" and describes a chemical reaction and turbidimetric procedure, indicating it is a physical reagent or kit, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The description explicitly states the assay is used for the "quantitative determination of protein in human urine or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)". This is a classic definition of an in vitro diagnostic test, as it analyzes biological samples outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis and treatment.
  • Device Description: The description further clarifies that it is an "in vitro diagnostic assay".
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies compare the device to a "predicate device" which is also an IVD (K913615; Boehringer Mannheim® Urinary/CSF Protein assay on the Hitachi® 717 Analyzer). This comparison is a common requirement for demonstrating substantial equivalence for new IVD devices.

The information provided clearly indicates that this device is designed to be used in a laboratory setting to analyze human biological samples for diagnostic purposes, which aligns with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

Comparative performance studies were conducted using the AEROSET™ Analyzer. The Urine/CSF Protein assay method comparison yielded acceptable correlation with the Boehringer Mannheim Urinary/CSF Protein assay on the Hitachi 717 Analyzer. For the urine application, the correlation coefficient = 0.992, slope = 1.065, and Y-intercept = - 0.264 mg/dL. For the CSF application, the correlation coefficient = 0.9965, slope = 0.985, and Y-intercept = 5.762 mg/dL. Precision studies were conducted using the Urine/CSF Protein assay. Within-run, between-run, and between-day studies were performed using two levels of control material. For the urine application, the total %CV for Level 1/Panel 201 is 4.8% and Level 2/Panel 202 is 2.5%. For the CSF application, the total %CV for Level 1/Panel 301 is 2.4% and Level 2/Panel 302 is 1.5%. The Urine/CSF Protein assay is linear up to 200 mg/dL. The limit of quantitation (sensitivity) for the Urine/CSF Protein assay is 4.8 mg/dL. These data demonstrate that the performance of the Urine/CSF Protein assay is substantially equivalent to the performance of the Boehringer Mannheim Urinary/CSF Protein assay on the Hitachi 717 Analyzer.
