The summary describes a quantitative immunoassay for TSH, which is a standard laboratory test method and does not mention any AI or ML components.
No
The device is for diagnostic determination of TSH levels, not for treating a condition.
Yes
The intended use statement explicitly states that "The assay is useful in the diagnosis of thyroid or pituitary disorders," which is a key characteristic of a diagnostic device.
No
The device is described as an assay for determining TSH in human serum, which implies a laboratory test involving physical reagents and equipment, not solely software.
Based on the provided information, the BioCheck TSH EIA is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "quantitative determination of thyrotropin, or thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) in human serum." This involves testing a sample taken from the human body (serum) outside of the body (in vitro) to provide diagnostic information.
- Diagnostic Purpose: The assay is stated to be "useful in the diagnosis of thyroid or pituitary disorders." This clearly indicates a diagnostic purpose.
The definition of an IVD is a medical device that is used to examine specimens, such as blood, tissue, or urine, taken from the human body to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. The BioCheck TSH EIA fits this definition perfectly.

Dear Ms. Hellen:
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.

Under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA-88), this device may require a CLIA complexity categorization. To determine if it does, you should contact the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) at (770) 488-7655.
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 regulation (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).
