Intended Use
This test system is designed for the manual or automated, qualitative detection of IgM antibodies to Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) type 1 and type 2 in human serum. The test system is designed to detect IgM antibody to HSV-1 and/or HSV-2. but can not distinquish between the two IgM antibodies. The test system is intended to evaluate serologic evidence of primary or reactivated infection with HSV-1 and/or HSV-2.

No
The provided text describes a serological test for HSV antibodies and contains no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

No
The device is designed for the detection of antibodies to HSV, indicating infection, rather than providing treatment or therapy. It is a diagnostic tool.

Yes
This device is designed for the "qualitative detection of IgM antibodies" to "evaluate serologic evidence of primary or reactivated infection," which directly indicates its use in diagnosing a medical condition.

No

The provided text describes a test system for detecting antibodies in human serum, which is a laboratory-based diagnostic test involving biological samples and reagents, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the test system is designed for the "qualitative detection of IgM antibodies to Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) type 1 and type 2 in human serum." This involves testing a sample taken from the human body (serum) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a person's health status (presence of HSV antibodies).
  • Sample Type: The test uses "human serum," which is a biological sample taken from a patient.
  • Purpose: The purpose is to "evaluate serologic evidence of primary or reactivated infection with HSV-1 and/or HSV-2," which is a diagnostic purpose.

These characteristics align directly with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 866.3305 Herpes simplex virus serological assays.

(a)
Identification. Herpes simplex virus serological assays are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in various serological tests to identify antibodies to herpes simplex virus in serum. Additionally, some of the assays consist of herpes simplex virus antisera conjugated with a fluorescent dye (immunofluorescent assays) used to identify herpes simplex virus directly from clinical specimens or tissue culture isolates derived from clinical specimens. The identification aids in the diagnosis of diseases caused by herpes simplex viruses and provides epidemiological information on these diseases. Herpes simplex viral infections range from common and mild lesions of the skin and mucous membranes to a severe form of encephalitis (inflammation of the brain). Neonatal herpes virus infections range from a mild infection to a severe generalized disease with a fatal outcome.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II (special controls). The special control for the device is FDA's revised guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Herpes Simplex Virus Types 1 and 2 Serological Assays.” For availability of the guidance revised document, see § 866.1(e).

Dear Mr. Kopnitsky:

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.
