AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but the provided text does not contain the detailed information necessary to describe the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them, as requested. The document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the "Autostat™ II Rheumatoid Factor IgM ELISA" device, indicating that it has been deemed substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device.

The letter does not include:

  • A table of acceptance criteria or reported device performance.
  • Details about the sample size, data provenance, number of experts, adjudication methods for ground truth, or qualifications of experts.
  • Information on multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness studies.
  • Details about standalone algorithm performance studies.
  • The type of ground truth used for any studies.
  • Information about the training set size or how its ground truth was established.

The document only states the device's trade name, regulatory class, product code, and its intended use: "ENZYME LINKED IMMUNOSORBENT ASSAY METHOD FOR THE SEMI-QUANTITATIVE DETERMINATION OF SPECIFIC IGM RHEUMATOID FACTOR (RF) ANTIBODIES IN HUMAN SERA. USES: THE RESULTS OF THE RF IGM ASSAY CAN BE USED AS AN AID IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS (RA) WHEN SUPPORTED BY OTHER LABORATORY AND CLINICAL INVESTIGATIONS. LEVELS OF THESE AUTOANTIBODIES ARE ONE INDICATION IN A MULTIFACTORIAL DIAGNOSTIC SCHEME. THE ASSAY MAY BE USED ON THE HAAKE HYPOTEC AUTOMATED EIA INSTRUMENT. FOR IN VITRO DIAGNOSTIC USE ONLY."

Dear Ms. Knight:

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.
