Device Description
The HEMOCIIRON® Response is an upgrade of the HEMOCHRON® Coagulation Instruments, HFMOCHRON® Model 8000 that was approved under 510(k) K930068 and the HEMOCHRON® Models 401 and 801. The HEMOCHRON® Response performs the same tests as the predicate HEMOCHRON@ Instruments. All test assays are previously 510(k) approved. The IIEMOCIIRON® Response employs the same mechanical clot detection system as the predicate HEMOCHRON® Instruments. Mechanical systems can be used to monitor clotling times in either whole blood or plasma samples.
The HEMOCHRON® employs a mechanical clot detection system. The principle of operation is based on the electrical field generated by a magnet contained within a glass test tube when the magnet is in close proximity to the detector located within the test well.
To perform a test, blood is added to the test tube and placed in the test well. The magnet freely rotates within the tube, in a non-clotted sample. The magnet position is detected by two solid-state Hall effect sensors. When a clot forms the magnet is caught within the clot and is shifted out of the detection area. The electrical change that occurs due to the magnet rotation triggers the timer to stop with an audible beep signaling clot formation to the user.

Summary of Performance Studies
Clinical: Using a split sample design, the data was collected from 42 patients, yielding a total of 242 comparative ACT results. The test results were highly correlated (r = 0.94). y = (),912x +24.77
Laboratory: Four representative assays were selected to demonstrate substantial equivalence. (AC)', APTT, PT(citrate) and HiTT) In all studies split samples were obtained to run on both the HEMOCHRON Response and the predicate HEMOCHRON.
ACT: An in vitro heparin dose response employing normal donor blood demonstrated the comparable sensitivity of the ACT through the entire reportable range (up to 1000 seconds) of the assay. (n = 66, r = 0.96) y=0.95x + 18.00
APTT: An in vitro heparin dose response employing normal donor blood demonstrated the comparable sensitivity of the APTT through the catire reportable range of the assay. (n = 41, r = 0.99) y=1.03x - 4.51
PT (citrate): Comparable PT results using the HEMOCHRON Response and the predicate HEMOCHRON were generated using freshly obtained blood specimens from patients receiving low doses of oral anticoagulant. (n = 22, r = 0.986) y= 1.00x -3.876
HITT: An in vitro heparin dose response employing normal donor blood demonstrated the comparable sensitivity of the HiTT through the reportable range of the assay. (n=29,r=0.91) y=0.89x +20.58

Device Description
The HEMOCIIRON® Response is an upgrade of the HEMOCHRON® Coagulation Instruments, HFMOCHRON® Model 8000 that was approved under 510(k) K930068 and the HEMOCHRON® Models 401 and 801. The HEMOCHRON® Response performs the same tests as the predicate HEMOCHRON@ Instruments. All test assays are previously 510(k) approved. The IIEMOCIIRON® Response employs the same mechanical clot detection system as the predicate HEMOCHRON® Instruments. Mechanical systems can be used to monitor clotling times in either whole blood or plasma samples.
The HEMOCHRON® employs a mechanical clot detection system. The principle of operation is based on the electrical field generated by a magnet contained within a glass test tube when the magnet is in close proximity to the detector located within the test well.

Summary of Technological Characteristics and Performance Data
The HEMOCHRON® Response is a sollware / firmware and mechanical upgrade of the HEMOCHRON® Instruments designed to perform the same tests as the predicate instruments. The upgrade provides the end user with additional quality features not currently available in the predicate HEMOCHRON® Instruments.
The HEMOCHRON@ Response is a modification of the HEMOCHRON® Instruments with improved test well operation and reliability through the use of two Hall Effect solidstate detectors. This provides for full magnet position tracking within the test tube and eliminates the calibration drift of well parameters.
In addition a UPC-E bar code detector has been added to automatically read the affixed bar code label and identify the test assay, expiration date and lot number of the test assay, The instrument provides advanced patient and OC data tracking and streamlined computer interface capabilities which provide essential quality features for the end users.
The following is a summary of Clinical and Laboratory data demonstrating substantial equivalence between the HEMOCHRON Response and the predicate HEMOCHRON instrument.
Clinical
Using a split sample design, the data was collected from 42 patients, yielding a total of 242 comparative ACT results. The test results were highly correlated (r = 0.94). y = (),912x +24.77
Laboratory
Four representative assays were selected to demonstrate substantial equivalence. (AC)', APTT, PT(citrate) and HiTT) In all studies split samples were obtained to run on both the HEMOCHRON Response and the predicate HEMOCHRON.

ACT
An in vitro heparin dose response employing normal donor blood demonstrated the comparable sensitivity of the ACT through the entire reportable range (up to 1000 seconds) of the assay. (n = 66, r = 0.96) y=0.95x + 18.00
APTT
An in vitro heparin dose response employing normal donor blood demonstrated the comparable sensitivity of the APTT through the catire reportable range of the assay. (n = 41, r = 0.99) y=1.03x - 4.51
PT (citrate)
Comparable PT results using the HEMOCHRON Response and the predicate HEMOCHRON were generated using freshly obtained blood specimens from patients receiving low doses of oral anticoagulant. (n = 22, r = 0.986) y= 1.00x -3.876
HITT
An in vitro heparin dose response employing normal donor blood demonstrated the comparable sensitivity of the HiTT through the reportable range of the assay. (n=29,r=0.91) y=0.89x +20.58
Conclusion:
The HEMOCHRON Response is substantially equivalent to the predicate HEMOCHRON instrument. The HEMOCHRON Response system has the same intended use and employs the same assays as the predicate HEMOCHRON.
