No
The description focuses on immunoassay technology and standard performance metrics for a qualitative diagnostic test, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic test used for the qualitative identification of benzodiazepines in urine and is not intended for direct treatment or therapy.

Yes
The device is described as an "in vitro diagnostic test" and its measurements are "used in the diagnosis and treatment of drug abuse."

No

The device is described as an "Immunoassay" and an "in vitro diagnostic test," which are inherently hardware-based technologies for analyzing biological samples. The description of performance studies also refers to a "QuickScreen™ Benzodiazepines Screening Test," implying a physical test kit or device. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's an "in vitro diagnostic test for the qualitative identification of benzodiazepines in urine." This directly aligns with the definition of an IVD, which are tests performed on samples taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's an "Immunoassay for the qualitative detection of benzodiazepines in Urine," which is a common type of IVD test.
  • Anatomical Site: The test is performed on "Urine," which is a biological sample taken from the body.
  • Intended User / Care Setting: The intended users and settings (clinical toxicology laboratories, physicians' offices, and drug of abuse clinics) are typical environments where IVD tests are used.
  • Performance Studies: The document describes performance studies using clinical samples, which is a standard requirement for demonstrating the effectiveness of an IVD.
  • Key Metrics: The inclusion of key metrics like sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy are crucial for evaluating the performance of an IVD.
  • Predicate Device(s): The mention of predicate devices indicates that this device is being compared to other legally marketed IVDs.

All these factors strongly indicate that this device is an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The QuickScreen™ One Step Benzodiazepines Screening Test is a rapid, qualitative immunoassay for the detection of benzodiazepines compounds in urine. The cut-off concentration for this test is 200 ng/mL. This assay is intended for use in clinical toxicology laboratories, physicians' offices and drug of abuse clinics. Benzodiazepines form one of the largest classes of abused pharmaceuticals. These products are sedative and hypnotics, tranquilizers and anti-anxiety drugs which produce a calming effect, thus they are often prescribed as tranquilizers.

The product performance characteristics of the QuickScreen™ Benzodiazepines Screening Test were evaluated in a clinical sample correlation study and a blind labeled spiked study. Correlations studies, using clinical specimens, produced a >99% correlation when compared to the ABI SureStep (San Diego, CA 92121) and the EMIT II Test (San Jose, CA ). A clinical laboratory study was also performed, the Phamatech QuickScreen™ exhibited excellent sensitivity (>99%), specificity (>99%), and accuracy (>99%) in the hands of professional users.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The product performance characteristics of the QuickScreen™ Benzodiazepines Screening Test were evaluated in a clinical sample correlation study and a blind labeled spiked study. The results of these studies demonstrate the Phamatech QuickScreen™ Test to be substantially equivalent to the reported performance characteristics of other commercially available tests for the qualitative detection of benzodiazepines in urine. Correlations studies, using clinical specimens, produced a >99% correlation when compared to the ABI SureStep (San Diego, CA 92121) and the EMIT II Test (San Jose, CA ).

§ 862.3170 Benzodiazepine test system.

(a)
Identification. A benzodiazepine test system is a device intended to measure any of the benzodiazepine compounds, sedative and hypnotic drugs, in blood, plasma, and urine. The benzodiazepine compounds include chlordiazepoxide, diazepam, oxazepam, chlorzepate, flurazepam, and nitrazepam. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of benzodiazepine use or overdose and in monitoring levels of benzodiazepines to ensure appropriate therapy.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). A benzodiazepine test system is not exempt if it is intended for any use other than employment or insurance testing or is intended for Federal drug testing programs. The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9, provided the test system is intended for employment and insurance testing and includes a statement in the labeling that the device is intended solely for use in employment and insurance testing, and does not include devices intended for Federal drug testing programs (e.g., programs run by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. military).

QuickScreen™ Benzodiazepines Screening Test (9025/9026) ldentification:

Description: Immunoassay for the qualitative detection of benzodiazepines in Urine

Name Of Manufacturer: Phamatech 9265 Activity Road #112 San Diego, California 92126, USA

Intended Use: The QuickScreen™ One Step Benzodiazepines Screening Test is a rapid, qualitative immunoassay for the detection of benzodiazepines compounds in urine. The cut-off concentration for this test is 200 ng/mL. This assay is intended for use in clinical toxicology laboratories, physicians' offices and drug of abuse clinics. Benzodiazepines form one of the largest classes of abused pharmaceuticals. These products are sedative and hypnotics, tranquilizers and anti-anxiety drugs which produce a calming effect, thus they are often prescribed as tranquilizers.

The QuickScreen™ Test, like many commercially available drug Technology: screening test kits, qualitatively measures the presence of benzodiazepines by visual color sandwich one step immunoassay technology. Examples of such predicate devices include the ABMC (Ancramdale, NY) and the Applied Biotech SureStep Test (San Diego, CA 92121). All of the above devices rely on the basic immunochemical sandwich assay principle of recognition and formation of specific antibody / benzodiazepines / antibody / complexes.

Performance: The product performance characteristics of the QuickScreen™ Benzodiazepines Screening Test were evaluated in a clinical sample correlation study and a blind labeled spiked study. The results of these studies demonstrate the Phamatech QuickScreen™ Test to be substantially equivalent to the reported performance characteristics of other commercially available tests for the qualitative detection of benzodiazepines in urine. Correlations studies, using clinical specimens, produced a >99% correlation when compared to the ABI SureStep (San Diego, CA 92121) and the EMIT II Test (San Jose, CA ). A clinical laboratory study was also performed, the Phamatech QuickScreen™ exhibited excellent sensitivity (>99%), specificity (>99%), and accuracy (>99%) in the hands of professional users.

Conclusion: For the reasons mentioned above, it may be concluded that the Phamatech QuickScreen™ Benzodiazepines Screening Test is substantially equivalent to a variety of benzodiazepines detection tests currently in commercial distribution.
