AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the HiChem® Calibrators 1, 2 and 3, based on the provided document:

Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance

The document doesn't explicitly state "acceptance criteria" in a separate section with numerical targets. Instead, it presents method comparison study results as evidence of effectiveness and substantial equivalence to the predicate device. The implicit acceptance criteria appear to be the demonstration of strong linear correlation (high 'r' value) and minimal bias (slope 'b' close to 1.0 and intercept 'a' close to 0.0) between the HiChem® calibrators and the Beckman® calibrators across various analytes and specimen types.

Table of Performance (derived from the method comparison study):

Summary of Device Performance against Implicit Acceptance Criteria:

The device consistently demonstrates strong linear correlation (r-values generally close to 1.0, with most >0.98 and only a few >0.93) and good agreement with the predicate device (slope 'b' generally close to 1.0 and intercept 'a' close to 0.0) across all tested analytes and specimen types. This performance suggests the device meets the implicit acceptance criteria for substantial equivalence to the predicate.


Study Details:

  1. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • Sample Sizes (n):
      • Serum/Plasma: 159 or 160 for most analytes
      • Urine: 74-81 for most analytes
      • CSF: 44 or 45 for some analytes (Chloride, Glucose)
    • Data Provenance:
      • Country of Origin: Not specified.
      • Retrospective or Prospective: Not explicitly stated, however, the phrase "were collected from adult patients and assayed" suggests a prospective collection for the purpose of this study.
  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
    This information is not applicable to this type of device (calibrators for laboratory instruments). The "ground truth" in this context is the analytical result obtained using the predicate device's calibrators on a controlled laboratory system. There are no human "experts" establishing a diagnostic ground truth.

  3. Adjudication method for the test set:
    Not applicable. This is a quantitative measurement comparison study, not one requiring adjudication of subjective interpretations.

  4. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:
    Not applicable. This is a study comparing analytical calibrators, not an AI-assisted diagnostic device that involves human readers.

  5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:
    Yes, in a sense, this is a standalone performance study of the calibrators. The performance shown directly reflects the analytical capability of the HiChem® calibrators in conjunction with the SYNCHRON CX® DELTA System, without human intervention in the measurement process itself, beyond operating the instrument. The results are compared against the predicate calibrators in the same system configuration.

  6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):
    The "ground truth" for this study is the analytical results obtained using the predicate calibrators (SYNCHRON® CX® Calibrators 1, 2 & 3) on the specified Beckman® SYNCHRON CX® DELTA System. This is a comparative study against an established, legally marketed calibrator.

  7. The sample size for the training set:
    Not applicable. This device is a calibrator, and its evaluation involves method comparison studies, not machine learning or AI models that require a separate training set.

  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
    Not applicable, as there is no training set for this type of device.

Dear Mr. Stocking:

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 (OS) 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.
