Intended Use
The AHDL method for the Dimension® clinical chemistry system is a device used to quantitatively measure High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol in human serum or plasma. AHDL measurements are used as an aid in the diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders.
Device Description
The AHDL method for the Dimension® clinical chemistry system is a homogeneous method for direct measurement of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels without the need for off-line pretreatment or centrifugation steps. The method is in a two-reagent format and depends on the properties of a unique detergent, which solubilizes only the HDL particles, thus releasing HDL cholesterol to react with cholesterol esterase to produce color. In addition to selectively disrupting the HDL particles, this detergent also inhibits the reaction of the cholesterol enzymes with LDL, VLDL and chylomicrons by adsorbing to their surfaces. A polyanion is contained in the first reagent to assist with complexing LDL, VLDL and chylomicrons, further enhancing the selectivity of the detergent and enzymes for HDL cholesterol.
More Information

No
The description focuses on a chemical assay method and does not mention any AI or ML components.

No.
The device measures HDL cholesterol for diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders; it does not directly treat or prevent a disease.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that "AHDL measurements are used as an aid in the diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders." This indicates its role in contributing to a diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly outlines a chemical assay method involving reagents and reactions, indicating a hardware-dependent laboratory test, not a software-only device.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the device is used to "quantitatively measure High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol in human serum or plasma." This involves testing biological samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Indications for Use: The indications for use state that the measurements are used "as an aid in the diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders." This directly aligns with the purpose of IVDs, which are used to provide information for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
  • Device Description: The description details a method for analyzing components of a biological sample (serum or plasma) using chemical reactions and reagents. This is characteristic of an IVD.

The information provided clearly indicates that this device is designed to perform tests on biological samples in vitro to provide information relevant to a patient's health status, which is the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Name: Dimension® Automated High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (AHDL) Flex™ reagent cartridge

Classification Name: Colorimetric Method, Lipoprotein

Predicate Device: Dimension® High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL) Assay

Device Description: The AHDL method for the Dimension® clinical chemistry system is a homogeneous method for direct measurement of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels without the need for off-line pretreatment or centrifugation steps.

The method is in a two-reagent format and depends on the properties of a unique detergent, which solubilizes only the HDL particles, thus releasing HDL cholesterol to react with cholesterol esterase to produce color. In addition to selectively disrupting the HDL particles, this detergent also inhibits the reaction of the cholesterol enzymes with LDL, VLDL and chylomicrons by adsorbing to their surfaces. A polyanion is contained in the first reagent to assist with complexing LDL, VLDL and chylomicrons, further enhancing the selectivity of the detergent and enzymes for HDL cholesterol.

Image /page/0/Figure/13 description: This image shows a series of chemical reactions. LDL, VLDL, and Chylomicrons react with detergent and polyanion to form stable complexes. HDL reacts with detergent to become disrupted. HDL Cholesterol reacts with Cholesterol esterase and Cholesterol oxidase to form Δ' Cholestenone + H₂O₂, and H₂O₂ + DSBmT + 4AA reacts with Peroxidase to produce color development.
