More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a calibration verification test set for immunochemistry systems, which is a standard laboratory control material and does not mention or imply the use of AI or ML.

No.
The device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) product used for calibration and verification of immunochemistry systems, not for treating any medical condition.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the solutions are "intended for in vitro diagnostic use."

No

The device is described as containing "assayed solutions" in "bottles," indicating it is a physical product (reagents) and not solely software.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The document explicitly states the intended use is "for in vitro diagnostic use in the quantitative determination of linearity, calibration verification and verification of reportable range on immunochemistry systems and clinical ana volificalled on the following analytes: Thyroxine (T4), Triiodothyronine (T3) and Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)." This clearly indicates the device is used outside of the body to analyze samples for diagnostic purposes.
  • Device Description: The description details the contents as "assayed solutions" of specific analytes (T4, T3, TSH) in a "serum matrix." This further supports its use in laboratory testing of biological samples.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a predicate device (K950469; DOCUMENT Serum Multianalyte Calibration Verification Test Set) which is also a calibration verification test set, strongly suggests this device falls under the same regulatory category, which is IVD.

The information provided aligns perfectly with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 862.1660 Quality control material (assayed and unassayed).

(a)
Identification. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) for clinical chemistry is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to estimate test precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations that may arise from reagent or analytical instrument variation. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys. This generic type of device includes controls (assayed and unassayed) for blood gases, electrolytes, enzymes, multianalytes (all kinds), single (specified) analytes, or urinalysis controls.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). Except when intended for use in donor screening tests, quality control materials (assayed and unassayed) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.

Dear Ms. Hickey:

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.
