Device Description

Abuscreen ONLINE BENZ 300 Calibrators are designed for the calibration of the Roche assays for Benzodiazepines. This clinical toxicology calibrator is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to establish points of reference that are used in the measurement of substances in human specimens.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) submission for "Abuscreen ONLINE® BENZ 300 Calibrators". However, the document explicitly states: "No clinical or nonclinical tests were necessary to establish substantial equivalence."

Therefore, based on the provided text, there is no study described that proves the device meets specific acceptance criteria. The submission establishes equivalence to a predicate device ("Abuscreen ONLINE Calibration Pack," K951595) based on technological characteristics rather than performance data from a new study.

Here's a breakdown of why I cannot fulfill your request for performance data and study details:

  • Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance: No acceptance criteria or reported device performance for the new device are mentioned in the text. The only performance-related information provided is a comparison of benzodiazepine levels (ng/mL) for calibration, which are simply the concentrations offered by the calibrators, not performance metrics.
  • Sample Size for Test Set and Data Provenance: Not applicable as no new test set or study was conducted.
  • Number of Experts and Qualifications: Not applicable.
  • Adjudication Method: Not applicable.
  • MRMC Comparative Effectiveness Study: Not applicable.
  • Standalone Performance: Not applicable.
  • Type of Ground Truth: Not applicable.
  • Sample Size for Training Set: Not applicable.
  • How Ground Truth for Training Set was Established: Not applicable.

The submission focuses solely on establishing substantial equivalence to a previously cleared device by comparing characteristics like matrix, intended use, and the levels of benzodiazepines in the calibrators.

Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

FeatureAcceptance Criteria (Not explicitly stated as performance criteria but as characteristics for equivalence)Reported Device Performance (Characteristics of the new device)
MatrixMust be urine (implied by predicate)urine
Intended UseFor calibration of Roche assays for benzodiazepines (implied by predicate functionality for benzodiazepines)for the calibration of Roche assays for benzodiazepines
Levels of Benzodiazepines (ng/mL)Specific levels (0, 50, 100, 200) for calibration (from predicate)0, 150, 300, 600

Explanation of Study (or lack thereof):

The document explicitly states in Section VI: "Brief discussion of the clinical and nonclinical tests relied on for a determination of substantial equivalence: No clinical or nonclinical tests were necessary to establish substantial equivalence."

This means that a new study as you describe (with test sets, ground truth, expert review, etc.) was not performed for this 510(k) submission. Substantial equivalence was determined based on a comparison of the new device's characteristics (matrix, intended use, and calibration levels) with those of an already legally marketed predicate device (Abuscreen ONLINE Calibration Pack, K951595). The changes in the benzodiazepine levels (0, 150, 300, 600 ng/mL for the new device versus 0, 50, 100, 200 ng/mL for the predicate) are presented as a characteristic difference, not as a result of performance testing in this specific 510(k).

Dear Ms. Feijoo:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Requlations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General requlation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in requlatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

{4}------------------------------------------------

Page 2

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling requlation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4588. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification"(21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597, or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html".
