No
The document describes a standard automated chemistry analyzer performing quantitative kinetic and endpoint determinations and electrolyte measurements using indirect potentiometry. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No
The device is described as an automated chemistry analyzer for in vitro diagnostic use, intended to measure analytes and electrolytes in samples. It is used in conjunction with materials to perform quantitative determinations, not to provide therapy.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "an automated chemistry analyzer for in vitro diagnostic use" and performs "quantitative kinetic and endpoint determinations of specific analytes." It also mentions "clinical use" and "measures the concentration of electrolytes... in samples." These functions are characteristic of diagnostic devices, which are used to measure analytes in samples to aid in the diagnosis of diseases or conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "automated open system for quantitative analysis of clinical chemistries" and mentions an optional "Ion-Selective Electrode (ISE) module," indicating it is a physical hardware device with software control, not a software-only device.

Yes, based on the provided text, the ALCYON Analyzer is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Explicit Statement in Intended Use: The very first sentence of the "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section clearly states: "The ALCYON Analyzer is an automated chemistry analyzer for in vitro diagnostic use."
  • Definition of IVD: In vitro diagnostic devices are those intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body for the purpose of diagnosing disease or other conditions, including a determination of the state of health, in order to cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent disease or its sequelae. The ALCYON Analyzer performs quantitative determinations of specific analytes and electrolytes in samples, which aligns with this definition.
  • Clinical Use: The text mentions "clinical use" multiple times, indicating its application in a clinical laboratory setting for diagnostic purposes.
  • Measurement of Analytes and Electrolytes: The device measures various analytes and electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride) in samples, which are common diagnostic tests performed in vitro.

Therefore, the text explicitly identifies the ALCYON Analyzer as an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Anticoagulant studies were performed using Lithium Heparin, Sodium Heparin, Ammonia Heparin, Sodium Citrate, Potassium-EDTA, plastic tubes and baselined against serum specimen tubes.

Less than +/- 10% difference from the serum specimen collection tube baseline was observed for sodium heparin, lithium heparin, ammonium heparin, plastic, and SST collection tubes for the quantitation of sodium, potassium, and chloride.

See tables for specific recovery percentages for sodium, potassium, and chloride with various anticoagulants.

The data demonstrates that the use of plasma specimens is an acceptable specimen type for the quantitative determinations of sodium, potassium, and chloride using indirect potentiometry on the ALCYON 300i Analyzer.

Dear Mr. Littlefield:

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.
