More Information

No
The document describes a quality control material for a laboratory analyzer and does not mention any AI or ML components.

No
This device is for the verification of sensitivity, calibration linearity, and reportable range of a diagnostic system, not for treating any medical condition.

No
This device is described as a "MasterCheck" for verifying sensitivity, calibration linearity, and reportable range on the Abbott Architect i System. It contains human serum and Free T4, suggesting it's a control or calibration product for an analytical system, rather than a diagnostic device itself that directly diagnoses a patient's condition.

No

The device description explicitly states that the device contains human serum, indicating it is a physical reagent, not software.

Based on the provided information, the Architect Free T4 MasterCheck is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "verification of sensitivity, calibration linearity, and reportable range on the Abbott Architect i System". This indicates it's used in vitro (outside the body) to assess the performance of a diagnostic system that measures a substance in a biological sample (Free T4 in human serum).
  • Device Description: The description mentions it contains "human serum" and "Free T4 prepared in human serum". This confirms it's a reagent or control material used with biological samples.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a predicate device (K950469 Casco Standards Document Serum Multi-Analyte Verification Test Set) which is also a verification test set, further supports its classification as an IVD. Predicate devices are typically other legally marketed IVDs.

While the document doesn't explicitly state "In Vitro Diagnostic Device", the intended use, device description, and the presence of a predicate device strongly indicate that it falls under the definition of an IVD. It's a product used in vitro to assess the performance of a diagnostic test.

§ 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.

Dear Ms. Platt:

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 Regulations, 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 regulation (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 regulatory 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.
