Device Description
The Dimension® Drug Calibrator II is a liquid bovine serum-based product. The kit consists of ten vials; two at each of five levels.
More Information

No
The document describes a calibrator for in vitro diagnostic tests, which is a chemical reagent product, and contains no mention of AI or ML technology.

No
The device is described as an "in vitro diagnostic product intended for the calibration of methods packages," not for direct treatment or therapy.

No
Explanation: This device is a calibrator, which is used to calibrate diagnostic devices. It is not a diagnostic device itself as it does not directly diagnose a condition or disease.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "liquid bovine serum-based product" and a "kit consists of ten vials," indicating it is a physical, in vitro diagnostic product, not software.

Yes, based on the provided information, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use / Indications for Use: The very first sentence explicitly states, "The Dimension ®Drug Calibrator II is an in vitro diagnostic product intended for the calibration of the following methods packages..." This is the most direct indicator.
  • Device Description: While the description of the product itself (liquid bovine serum-based) doesn't inherently make it an IVD, it describes a reagent used in laboratory testing, which is typical for IVDs.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a predicate device (K891093; aca® Digitoxin Calibrator) which is also a calibrator for a drug assay strongly suggests that this device falls under the same regulatory category as its predicate, which is an IVD.

The other sections being "Not Found" (like image processing, AI, anatomical site, etc.) are not relevant to determining if a device is an IVD. IVDs are a broad category and don't necessarily involve these technologies or specific patient characteristics.

§ 862.3200 Clinical toxicology calibrator.

(a)
Identification. A 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 determination of values in the measurement of substances in human specimens. A clinical toxicology calibrator can be a mixture of drugs or a specific material for a particular drug (e.g., ethanol, lidocaine, etc.). (See also § 862.2 in this part.)(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.

Dear Ms. Craft:

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 OS 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.
