The provided text focuses on the device's function in calibrating prothrombin time systems and its advantages over conventional methods, without mentioning any AI or ML technologies.
No
This device is for the calibration of prothrombin time systems, not for treating a disease or condition.
No
The device is described as providing calibration for prothrombin time systems and facilitating serial calibration studies, indicating it is an instrument used to ensure the accuracy of other diagnostic tests, rather than performing a diagnosis itself.
Unknown
The provided 510(k) summary lacks a "Device Description" section, which is crucial for determining if the device is software-only or includes hardware components. The "Intended Use" describes a calibration method, but doesn't specify the nature of the device itself.
Based on the provided information, this device is likely an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device's purpose as being used to calibrate prothrombin time systems. Prothrombin time (PT) is a laboratory test performed on blood samples to measure how long it takes for blood to clot. This test is used to monitor patients on anticoagulant therapy (like warfarin) and to assess liver function and clotting disorders.
- Calibration of a Diagnostic System: The device's function is to calibrate a system that performs a diagnostic test (PT). Calibration is a crucial step in ensuring the accuracy and reliability of diagnostic results.
- In Vitro: The process of calibrating a prothrombin time system involves working with blood samples (or simulated blood samples) outside of the body, which is the definition of "in vitro."
While the "Device Description" is not provided, the "Intended Use" alone strongly indicates that this device is designed to be used in a laboratory setting to ensure the proper functioning of a diagnostic test system.
The other points in the intended use further support this by highlighting the benefits of using this device for calibration, such as avoiding the need for certain materials and techniques typically used in conventional PT calibration, which are all related to the laboratory diagnostic process.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
- A. To provide calibration of local prothrombin time systems to accord with the WHO prothrombin time (PT) standardisation scheme ("the existing device").
- B. To avoid the need for local availability of an international reference preparation (IRP) for thromboplastin. IRP are not normally available except to national control laboratories and manufacturers. . .
- C. To avoid the need for the performance of the manual PT- technique required for conventional WHO calibrations. Most centres have now discarded the manual technique for automated procedures and are no longer skilled in the manual PT technique.
- D. To avoid the requirement for fresh plasma donations from 60 patients stabilised on warfarin treatment required for the conventional WHO calibrations.
- E. To facilitate serial calibration studies to check against drift of automated instruments or the effect of batch changes of commercial thromboplastin reagent.
- F. To provide a rapid result. A PT system calibration with the Calibrants takes about half an hour whereas a conventional WHO calibration requires several days. Five days are recommended by the revised 1999 WHO protocol.

§ 864.5425 Multipurpose system for in vitro coagulation studies.
(a)
Identification. A multipurpose system for in vitro coagulation studies is a device consisting of one automated or semiautomated instrument and its associated reagents and controls. The system is used to perform a series of coagulation studies and coagulation factor assays.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). A control intended for use with a multipurpose system for in vitro coagulation studies is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 864.9.

Re: K991439 Trade Name: Poller Calibrants Regulatory Class: II Product Code: GGN Dated: October 21, 1999 Received: November 1, 1999
Dear Professor Poller:
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.
