## Indications for Use

Coamatic® Plasmin Inhibitor is an in vitro diagnostic test for the quantitative determination of plasmin inhibitor activity in human citrated plasma using microplate, test tube and automated methods. Plasmin inhibitor, the major fast-acting inhibitor of the fibrinolytic system, also know as ca-antiplasmin, is an important regulator of the fibrinolytic system. Congenital deficiencies are associated with haemorragic problems. Decreased levels of plasmin inhibitor are observed in liver diseases and DIC. Increased levels have been reported during post-operative episodes.

## Device Story

Coamatic® Plasmin Inhibitor is an in vitro diagnostic reagent kit for measuring plasmin inhibitor (alpha-antiplasmin) activity in human citrated plasma. Used in clinical laboratories by technicians; compatible with microplate, test tube, and automated analyzer platforms (e.g., ACL 300, Cobas Mira, MLA Electra). The assay quantifies fibrinolytic system regulation; results assist clinicians in diagnosing congenital deficiencies, liver disease, or DIC, and monitoring post-operative states. Benefits include identification of hemorrhagic risk factors through standardized activity measurement.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Method comparison studies (n=32 to 61) against predicate Coatest® Antiplasmin showed correlation coefficients (r) ranging from 0.94 to 0.97 across various platforms (ACL 300, Cobas Mira, MLA Electra, test tube, microplate). Precision studies reported CVs of 5.9% at 44.8% mean concentration and 2.7% at 99.3% mean concentration.

## Technological Characteristics

In vitro diagnostic reagent for quantitative plasmin inhibitor activity. Utilizes chromogenic/enzymatic test principle identical to predicate. Compatible with standard clinical laboratory instrumentation (microplate, test tube, automated analyzers).

## Predicate Devices

- Coatest® Antiplasmin ([K833890](/device/K833890.md))

# Section 3 Coamatic® Plasmin Inhibitor - 510(k) SUMMARY (Summary of Safety and Effectiveness)

#### Submitted by:

Carol Marble Senior Regulatory Affairs Specialist Instrumentation Laboratory Company 113 Hartwell Avenue Lexington, MA 02173 Phone: (781) 861-4467 Fax: (781) 861-4464

### Contact Persons:

Carol Marble Phone: (781) 861-4467

#### Summary Prepared:

May 21, 1998

#### Name of the device:

Coamatic® Plasmin Inhibitor

### Classification name(s):

864.7290 Factor Deficiency Test Class II 81GGP Test, Qualitative and Quantitative Factor Deficient

#### Identification of predicate device(s):

K833890 Coatest® Antiplasmin

#### Description of the device/intended use(s):

Coamatic® Plasmin Inhibitor is an in vitro diagnostic test for the quantitative determination of plasmin inhibitor activity in human citrated plasma using microplate, test tube and automated methods. Plasmin inhibitor, the major fast-acting inhibitor of the fibrinolytic system, also know as a - antiplasmin, is an important regulator of the fibrinolytic system. Congenital deficiencies are associated with haemorragic problems. Decreased levels of plasmin inhibitor are observed in liver diseases and DIC. Increased levels have been reported during post-operative episodes.

### Statement of How the Technological Characteristics of the Device Compare to the Predicate device:

Coamatic® Plasmin Inhibitor uses the same test principle as the predicate Coatest® Antiplasmin and is substantially equivalent in performance, intended use, and safety and effectiveness.

#### Summary of Performance Data:

In method comparison studies comparing the new Coamatic® Plasmin Inhibitor to the predicate Coatest® Antiplasmin, the correlation (r) on an ACL 300 (n=61) was 0.95, on a Cobas Mira (n=43) was 0.97, on an MLA Electra (n=43) was 0.97, and using the test tube (n=32) and microplate (n=54) methods was 0.96 and 0.94, respectively.

Within run precision assessed over multiple runs gave a CV of 5.9% (at a mean plasmin inhibitor concentration of 44.8%) and 2.7% (at a mean plasmin inhibitor concentration of 99.3%).

Dear Ms. Marble:

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.
