The device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) system used for diagnosis and monitoring of lactic acidosis, tissue hypoxia, and hyperlactatemia based on blood lactate levels. It does not directly provide therapy.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the i-STAT lactate test is useful for "(1) the diagnosis and treatment of lactic acidosis" and "(3) diagnosis of hyperlactatemia." Additionally, the "Device Description" mentions that the system performs "diagnostic tests on whole blood."
No
The device description clearly outlines a system that includes hardware components such as a single-use cartridge with biosensor chips, a portable clinical analyzer (i-STAT Model 200), and an infrared communications link. The software is part of a larger system that relies on these physical components for its function.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for "diagnosis and treatment of lactic acidosis," "monitoring tissue hypoxia," and "diagnosis of hyperlactatemia." These are diagnostic purposes.
- Device Description: The description clearly states it's an "in vitro analytical system" designed to perform "diagnostic tests on whole blood." It analyzes blood samples outside of the body.
- Mechanism: The device uses biosensors and electrochemical analysis to measure the concentration of lactate in a blood sample. This is a typical method for in vitro diagnostic testing.
- Care Setting: It's intended for use by "health-care professionals at the point of patient care," which is a common setting for IVD devices used for rapid diagnostic results.

Device Description
The i-STAT lactate test is contained in a single use cartridge. In use, two to three drops of blood are placed in the cartridge as described below. The cartridge is inserted into the thermally controlled i-STAT Model 200 Portable Clinical Analyzer and all analytical steps are performed automatically. Patient and user information may be entered into the analyzer via a keypad during the automated analysis cycle.
The i-STAT System is an in vitro analytical system comprising a network of one or more portable clinical analyzers designed to be used at the point of patient care. The analyzers employ single-use test cartridges containing biosensor chips to perform diagnostic tests on whole blood. The system further comprises an infrared communications link from the analyzers to auxiliary information management devices such as printers, personal computers, laboratory information systems and hospital information systems.
The i-STAT analyzers, as part of the i-STAT System, are intended for use by health-care professionals for the in vitro analysis of arterial, venous or capillary whole blood at the point of patient care.
Tests with the i-STAT System are carried out in test cartridge. It houses the sensor array, aqueous calibrator, fluid channels, and a waste reservoir). Electrochemical sensors on biosensor chips are housed in cartridges in a variety of sensor test configurations appropriate to clinical needs.
Test panels are identified by name and color code on the cartridge label. In addition, test panel configurations are encoded into the cartridge in a mechanical feature in the cartridge housing. An array of electrical pins in the analyzer recognizes the mechanical feature and automatically identifies the cartridge test panel type.
In use, whole blood is introduced into the sample well of the cartridge at the sample port. After closure, the cartridge is inserted into the cartridge door of the analyzer. Insertion of the cartridge initiates a precisely controlled and monitored sequence of steps performed by the instrument without user intervention. These steps are:
- Electrical contact is made between the analyzer electronic input circuits and the . The analyzer identifies the type of cartridge being used and the tests cartridge. contained in the cartridge.

- . Blood sample is positioned over the sensors.
- . Calculations of sample concentrations are performed and displayed.

In the cartridge containing the test for lactate, the sensors comprise a patterned metallic layer, supported on a silicon/silicon dioxide substrate, coated with a thin membrane containing lactic acid oxidase.

Comparison of the Technological Features to the Predicate Device:
The following technological differences between the i-STAT lactate and the Nova test are noteworthy.
-
- The Nova lactate has to be calibrated daily with a two-point calibration. The i-STAT lactate is automatically calibrated during each sample analysis cycle.
-
- The Nova analyzer is a much larger multi-channel analyzer while the i-STAT system is a handheld device.
-
- The Nova lactate sensor is a multiple-use analytical system and is therefore prone to contamination and carry-over while the i-STAT sensor is single use and free of such interferences.
Summary of Non-Clinical Test Performance in Support of Substantial Equivalence:
Studies using calibration verification solutions at five concentrations of lactic acid, has established that the i-STAT Lactate test is linear over the claimed reportable range of 0.3 to 20 mmol/L. The reportable range of the Nova Stat Profile Plus Ultra lactate test is also 0.3 to 20 mmol/L.
Imprecision of the i-STAT Lactate test was established over 20 days using duplicate aqueous controls. In the normal range the average (N=120) was 0.81 ± 0.03 mmol/L [3.3% c.v.]. In the abnormal range (N=120) was 6.35 ± 0.08 mmol/L [1.2% c.v.]. Within run precision (using control materials) for the Stat Profile Plus Ultra (N = 18-25) is reported to be 0.8 ± 0.05 mmol/L (6.1% c.v) in the normal range and 7.6 ± 0.19 mmol/L (c.v 2.5%) in the abnormal range.
Summary of Clinical Test Performance in Support of Substantial Equivalence:
Studies compared the i-STAT Lactate test (y) was to the predicate device (x) using blood (site 1) and to a standard laboratory instrument (x) using plasma (site 2). The methods were compared using Deming regression analysis. The results summarized in the table below indicate that the i-STAT test performance is similar to the predicate device.

Conclusions:
Based on the non-clinical data, the new i-STAT lactate test is usable over the range of 0.3 to 20 mmol/L. Studies using controls indicate adequate precision at normal and medical decision levels. Clinical data indicates acceptable correlation to plasma and whole blood instruments. Based on data from CAP Surveys, the medically allowable error associated with the new test is within the standards accepted by the medical community. Thus, the safety and effectiveness of the new i-STAT Lactate test is established as substantially equivalent to that of a predicate device previously cleared for distribution and sale.
