K-ASSAY C4 assay on the Hitachi 717 Analyzer
No
The device description and performance studies focus on a standard in vitro diagnostic assay measuring light scattering (turbidity) to quantify C4. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in the provided text.
No.
This device is an in vitro diagnostic assay used for the quantitative determination of C4 in human serum or plasma to aid in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders, not for treating or preventing a disease or condition.
Yes
The 'Intended Use / Indications for Use' section explicitly states that the "Measurement of these proteins aids in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders." This indicates the device is used to help diagnose conditions.
No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic assay that measures light scattering from an immune complex formed in a sample of human serum or plasma. This involves physical reagents and a measurement system (reading turbidity at 604 nm), indicating it is a hardware-based device with associated software, not a software-only medical device.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the C4 assay is used for the quantitation of C4 in human serum or plasma and that measurement of these proteins aids in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders. This clearly indicates a diagnostic purpose performed in vitro (outside the body) using biological samples.
- Device Description: The "Device Description" further clarifies that it is an "in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative determination of C4 in human serum or plasma." It describes the mechanism of action, which involves analyzing a sample (serum or plasma) to measure a specific analyte (C4).
- Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device(s)" with a K number (K964297/S3) is a strong indicator that this device is being compared to a previously cleared IVD by a regulatory body like the FDA.
All these points align with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The C4 assay is used for the quantitation of C4 in human serum or plasma. Complement is a group of serum proteins which destroy infectious agents. Measurement of these proteins aids in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders, especially those associated with deficiencies of complement components.

Device Description
C4 is an in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative determination of C4 in human serum or plasma. Antigen in the sample bonds to the specific antibody in the reagent, forming an immune complex. The immune complex causes an increase in light scattering, measured by reading turbidity at 604 nm, which correlates with the concentration of C4 in the sample.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Comparative performance studies were conducted using the AEROSET™ System. The C4 assay method comparison yielded acceptable correlation with the K-ASSAY C4 assay on the Hitachi 717 Analyzer. The correlation coefficient = 0.9956, slope = 1.003, and Y-intercept = 0.018 mg/dL. Precision studies were conducted using the C4 assay. Within-run, between-run, and between-day studies were performed using two levels of control material. The total %CV for Level 1/Panel 401 is 1.6% and Level 2/Panel 402 is 2.5%. The C4 assay range is up to 82.23 mg/dL. The limit of quantitation (sensitivity) for the C4 assay is 0.471 mg/dL. These data demonstrate that the performance of the C4 assay is substantially equivalent to the performance of the K-ASSAY C4 assay on the Hitachi 717 Analyzer.
