The device description details a traditional immunoassay based on antibody reactions and visual interpretation of colored lines. There is no mention of any computational analysis, algorithms, or learning processes that would indicate the use of AI or ML.
No
The device aids in the determination of pregnancy (diagnosis), it does not provide therapy or treatment for any condition.
Yes
The device qualitatively identifies human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine to aid in the determination of pregnancy, which is a diagnostic purpose.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical test strip that utilizes chemical reactions and capillary action to detect hCG in urine, indicating it is a hardware-based device, not software-only.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is the "qualitative identification of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine to aid in the determination of pregnancy." This is a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample (urine) outside of the body (in vitro).
- Device Description: The description details how the test works by detecting a specific substance (hCG) in a biological sample (urine) using chemical reactions (antibody reagents). This is characteristic of an in vitro diagnostic device.
- Performance Studies: The document describes clinical trials where the device was used to test urine samples from participants to assess its performance in determining pregnancy. This further supports its classification as a diagnostic device.
- Key Metrics: The mention of detecting specific concentrations of hCG and assessing cross-reactivity with other hormones are performance characteristics relevant to a diagnostic test.
The fact that it is intended for "non-professional use" (over-the-counter) does not change its classification as an IVD. IVDs can be intended for both professional and non-professional use.

Device Description
The test utilizes a combination of monoclonal and polyclonal antibody reagents to selectively detect elevated levels of hCG. The assay is conducted by dipping the absorbent wick of the test in urine and observing for the formation of colored lines. The specimen migrates via capillary action along the wick and membrane to react with the colored conjugate. Positive specimens react with the specific antibody-hCG-colored conjugate and form a colored line on the Test portion of the membrane. Absence of this colored line suggests a negative result. To serve as a procedural control, a colored line at the Control zone will always appear regardless of the presence or absence of hCG.
The ACON™ One Step Home Pregnancy Test Strip detects hCG concentrations of 25 mIU/ml and greater. The test has been standardized to the World Health Organization Third International Standard. The addition of hLH (300 mIU/ml), hFSH (1000 mIU/ml), and hTSH (1000μIU/ml) to negative (0 mIU/ml hCG) and positive (25 mIU/ml hCG) urine showed no cross-reactivity.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Clinical trials using ACON™ One Step Home Pregnancy Test Strip were conducted which included 73 female participants. The results of the study showed that the majority of the participants found ACON™ One Step Home Pregnancy Test Strip very easy to use, and that they had no trouble understanding the labeling, reading the instructions, or interpreting the results.
The overall results of the clinical trial confirm that ACON™ One Step Home Pregnancy Test Strip is a suitable test for over-the-counter pregnancy testing.
