No
The device description and intended use clearly indicate a rapid visual test, which relies on a chemical reaction and visual interpretation, not AI/ML. There are no mentions of AI, ML, image processing, or data sets typically associated with AI/ML devices.

No
Explanation: This device is for diagnostic purposes (detecting pregnancy) and does not treat or cure any condition.

Yes
Explanation: The device is intended for the "qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine to aid in the detection of pregnancy," which falls under the definition of a diagnostic test.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "rapid visual test for the qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine," which implies a physical test strip or similar hardware component is used to perform the test. The 510(k) summary does not mention any software component or function.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine to aid in the detection of pregnancy." This involves testing a biological sample (urine) outside of the body to diagnose a condition (pregnancy).
  • Device Description: The description reinforces that it's a "rapid visual test for the qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine." This further confirms it's a test performed on a biological sample.

IVD devices are defined as reagents, instruments, and systems intended for use in the diagnosis of disease or other conditions, including a determination of the state of health, in order to cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent disease or its sequelae. Testing urine for hCG to detect pregnancy falls squarely within this definition.

§ 862.1155 Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test system.

(a)
Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test system intended for the early detection of pregnancy —(1)Identification. A human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test system is a device intended for the early detection of pregnancy is intended to measure HCG, a placental hormone, in plasma or urine.(2)
Classification. Class II.(b)
Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test system intended for any uses other than early detection of pregnancy —(1)Identification. A human chorionic goadotropin (HCG) test system is a device intended for any uses other than early detection of pregnancy (such as an aid in the diagnosis, prognosis, and management of treatment of persons with certain tumors or carcinomas) is intended to measure HCG, a placental hormone, in plasma or urine.(2)
Classification. Class III.(3)
Date PMA or notice of completion of a PDP is required. As of the enactment date of the amendments, May 28, 1976, an approval under section 515 of the act is required before the device described in paragraph (b)(1) may be commercially distributed. See § 862.3.

Re: K991193 Trade Name: SAS™ hCG-Check Regulatory Class: II Product Code: LCX Dated: April 7, 1999 Received: April 8, 1999

Dear Mr. Wessling:

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).
