No
The document describes a calibrator for a laboratory test system and does not mention any AI or ML components.
No
The device is a calibrator for prealbumin test systems, which is used for diagnostic purposes (calibration) and not for treating or preventing disease.
No
Explanation: This device is a calibrator used to calibrate prealbumin test systems, not a diagnostic device itself. It helps ensure the accuracy of diagnostic tests but does not directly diagnose a medical condition.
No
The device is a physical calibrator (human serum-based liquid) and not a software-only medical device.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "calibration of prealbumin test systems" used on SYNCHRON LX Systems. Calibration is a crucial step in ensuring the accuracy of in vitro diagnostic tests.
- Device Description: It's a "human serum-based liquid calibrator." Calibrators are used to establish a known relationship between the signal measured by an instrument and the concentration of an analyte in a sample, which is fundamental to quantitative in vitro diagnostic testing.
- Context: The device is used "in conjunction with SYNCHRON® Systems Prealbumin reagent," which is itself an IVD used to measure prealbumin in patient samples. Calibrators are essential components of many IVD test systems.
- Predicate Device: The predicate device listed (K854811; Beckman Immunochemistry Systems CAL 3) is also a calibrator for an immunochemistry system, further indicating that this type of product falls under the IVD category.
Based on the provided information, the SYNCHRON® LX Systems Prealbumin Calibrator is clearly intended to be used in an in vitro diagnostic process to ensure the accuracy of a prealbumin test.
