No
The description explicitly states that the electrophoregrams are interpreted visually and densitometry serves as an aid, with no mention of AI or ML.
No
The device is intended as an aid in the detection and identification of human hemoglobin abnormalities, not for treatment.
Yes
The device is described as an "aid in the detection and identification of human hemoglobin abnormalities" and is used for "screening for clinically important abnormal hemoglobins" and "confirming the identification of hemoglobin variants." These functions directly relate to diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description is not available, but the intended use clearly describes kits utilizing physical components like agarose gels and electrophoretic apparatuses for separating human hemoglobins. This indicates a hardware-based device, not a software-only one.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the devices are "intended as an aid in the detection and identification of human hemoglobin abnormalities." This involves testing biological samples (human hemoglobins) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis or monitoring.
- Method: The devices utilize electrophoretic separation of human hemoglobins on agarose gels, which is a laboratory technique performed on biological samples.
- Interpretation: The results (electrophoregrams) are interpreted visually and can be aided by densitometry, all of which are part of the diagnostic process.
- Clinical Purpose: The kits are indicated for "screening for clinically important abnormal hemoglobins" and "confirming the identity of clinically important abnormal hemoglobins," directly linking their use to clinical diagnosis and management.
The definition of an IVD generally includes 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. This device clearly fits this description.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Sebia's HYDRAGEL HEMOGLOBIN(E) and HYDRAGEL ACID(E) HEMOGLOBIN(E) lines of devices are intended as an aid in the detection and identification of human hemoglobin abnormalities, namely hemoglobinopathies (structural hemoglobin abnormalities) and thalassemias (regulation abnormalities). The uses are indicated as follows:
The HYDRAGEL HEMOGLOBIN(E) and HYDRAGEL MINI HEMOGLOBIN(E) Kits are designed for use in conjunction with a manual electrophoretic apparatus. The HYDRAGEL 7/15 HEMOGLOBIN(E) Kits are designed for use with the semi-automated HYDRASYS electrophoretic apparatus. All these kits utilize alkaline agarose gels for electrophoretic separation of human hemoglobins. The electrophoregrams are interpreted visually for pattern abnormalities. Densitometry can serve as an aid in the interpretation by providing relative concentrations of individual fractions. The kits are intended for the normal hemoglobins (A and A2) and the major hemoglobin variants S or D and C or E. They are indicated for screening for clinically important abnormal hemoglobins. Electrophoresis on acidic gel, e.g., HYDRAGEL ACID(E) HEMOGLOBIN(E), should follow to confirm the identification of hemoglobin variants, in particular, to differentiate hemoglobins S from D and E from C.
The HYDRAGEL ACID(E) HEMOGLOBIN(E) and HYDRAGEL MINI ACID(E) HEMOGLOBIN(E) Kits are designed for use in conjunction with a manual electrophoretic apparatus. The HYDRAGEL 7/15 ACID(E) HEMOGLOBIN(E) Kits are designed for use with the semi-automated HYDRASYS electrophoretic apparatus. All these kits utilize acid buffered agarose gels for electrophoretic separation of human hemoglobins. The electrophoregrams serve for qualitative, visual interpretation of the patterns. The kits are indicated for confirming the identity of clinically important abnormal hemoglobins that have been previously detected on alkaline buffered HYDRAGEL HEMOGLOBIN(E) gels. Primarily, they serve for differentiation of hemoglobins S from D and E from C.

Dear Dr. Janik:
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.
