No
The device description explicitly states it uses visual color sandwich one step immunoassay technology, and there are no mentions of AI, ML, or related terms in the summary.

No.
The device is for drug screening and detection, not for treating or preventing disease.

Yes

The device is designed to provide a preliminary result for the detection/presence of drugs of abuse in urine, which directly serves an diagnostic purpose by identifying the presence of a specific substance in a biological sample.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an immunoassay using visual color sandwich one step immunoassay technology, which is a hardware-based test kit.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "A home drug screening... for the detection/presence of... drugs of abuse in urine." This clearly indicates a test performed on a biological sample (urine) to provide information about a person's health status (presence of drugs).
  • Device Description: The description states it's an "Immunoassay for the qualitative detection of PCP in urine." Immunoassays are a common type of in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Anatomical Site: The test is performed on "Urine," which is a biological specimen.
  • Performance Studies: The document describes clinical studies and correlation studies using clinical specimens, which are typical for evaluating the performance of IVD devices.
  • Predicate and Reference Devices: The mention of predicate and reference devices (QuickScreen At Home Drug Test, Applied Biotech SureStep Test, Behring EMIT II) further supports that this device falls within the category of IVDs, as these are likely other drug screening IVDs.

The fact that it's intended for home use by lay users doesn't change its classification as an IVD. IVDs can be designed for various settings and user types.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The At Home Drug Test is a rapid, qualitative immunoassay for the detection of the target drugs/drug metabolites in urine. The cut-off concentration for this test is as follows: PCP:(25 ng/ml). This assay is intended for use in the home to assist in the prevention of drug abuse. This kit is designed to incorporate a mechanism for anonymous confirmation testing to be performed at a certified laboratory.

Device Description

Immunoassay for the qualitative detection of PCP in urine. The At Home Drug Test, like many commercially available drug screening test kits, qualitatively measures the presence of target drugs or their metabolites by visual color sandwich one step immunoassay technology. All of the above devices rely on the basic immunochemical sandwich assay principle of recognition and formation of specific antibody / target drug / antibody / complexes.

Summary of Performance Studies

The product performance characteristics of the At Home Drug Test were evaluated in a clinical sample correlation study and a blind labeled spiked study. The results of these studies demonstrate the Phamatech At Home Drug Test to be substantially equivalent to the reported performance characteristics of other commercially available tests for the qualitative detection of the stated target drugs in urine. Correlations studies, using clinical specimens, produced a >98% correlation when compared to the Behring EMIT II and GC/MS methodology. Clinical studies, performed at two independent laboratories, were also performed. In them the Phamatech QuickScreen™ exhibited excellent overall accuracy (>97%) in the hands of professional users. A consumer study was also performed. The At Home Drug Test exhibited excellent overall accuracy (4557/4715 correct or 96.65%) in the hands of lay users. Consumer interpretation of the PCP test in this study showed accuracy to be 464/499 or 93%.

Key Metrics

PCP test accuracy in consumer study: 464/499 or 93%.
Overall accuracy (consumer study): 4557/4715 correct or 96.65%.
Overall accuracy (professional users): >97%.
Correlation with Behring EMIT II and GC/MS methodology: >98%.

510 (k) SUMMARY AS REQUIRED BY SECTION 807.92(C)

At Home Drug Test (Model 9133) ldentification:

Description: Immunoassay for the qualitative detection of PCP in urine

Name Of Manufacturer:

Phamatech 9265 Activity Road #112 San Diego, California 92126, USA

Intended Use: The At Home Drug Test is a rapid, qualitative immunoassay for the detection of the target drugs/drug metabolites in urine. The cut-off concentration for this test is as follows: PCP:(25 ng/ml). This assay is intended for use in the home to assist in the prevention of drug abuse. This kit is designed to incorporate a mechanism for anonymous confirmation testing to be performed at a certified laboratory.

The At Home Drug Test, like many commercially available drug screening test Technology: kits, qualitatively measures the presence of target drugs or their metabolites by visual color sandwich one step immunoassay technology. Examples of such predicate devices include the QuickScreen At Home Drug Test and the Applied Biotech SureStep Test (San Diego, CA 92121). All of the above devices rely on the basic immunochemical sandwich assay principle of recognition and formation of specific antibody / target drug / antibody / complexes.

Performance: The product performance characteristics of the At Home Drug Test were evaluated in a clinical sample correlation study and a blind labeled spiked study. The results of these studies demonstrate the Phamatech At Home Drug Test to be substantially equivalent to the reported performance characteristics of other commercially available tests for the qualitative detection of the stated target drugs in urine. Correlations studies, using clinical specimens, produced a >98% correlation when compared to the Behring EMIT II (Cupertino, CA 95014) and GC/MS methodology. Clinical studies, performed at two independent laboratories, were also performed. In them the Phamatech QuickScreen™ exhibited excellent overall accuracy (>97%) in the hands of professional users. A comsumer study was also performed. The At Home Drug Test exhibited excellent overall accuracy (4557/4715 correct or 96.65%) in the hands of lay users. Consumer interpretation of the PCP test in this study showed accuracy to be 464/499 or 93%.

For the reasons mentioned above, it may be concluded that the Conclusion: Phamatech At Home Drug Test Model 9133 is substantially equivalent to a variety of detection tests currently in commercial distribution and is safe in the hands of the lay user.
