Beckman Coulter's Protein Control is intended for use in monitoring the reliability and overall performance of specific protein tests systems in the clinical laboratory. The use of three levels of control allows the laboratorian to monitor change in calibration linearity along with analytical error and imprecision.
The Vigil™ Protein Controls are three level ready-to-use human serum-based liquid controls manufactured by Beckman Coulter, Inc. Each kit contains 4 X 5 mL bottles of a sinale level of control.
The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device called "Vigil™ Protein Controls". This device is a quality control material intended for use in monitoring the reliability and performance of specific protein test systems in a clinical laboratory.
The document does not contain information regarding acceptance criteria, device performance, sample sizes for test or training sets, ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, or comparative effectiveness studies (MRMC or standalone). It is a regulatory submission for a quality control material, not a diagnostic or therapeutic device requiring such performance studies.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the input document.

§ 862.1660 Quality control material (assayed and unassayed).
(a)
Identification. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) for clinical chemistry is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to estimate test precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations that may arise from reagent or analytical instrument variation. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys. This generic type of device includes controls (assayed and unassayed) for blood gases, electrolytes, enzymes, multianalytes (all kinds), single (specified) analytes, or urinalysis controls.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). Except when intended for use in donor screening tests, quality control materials (assayed and unassayed) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.
