Indications for Use
The QuickScreen™ Benzodiazepines Test is a rapid, qualitative immunoassay for the detection of benzodiazepines in urine. The cutoff concentration for this test is 200 ng/ml. This assay is intended for professional use.
Device Story
QuickScreen™ Benzodiazepines Test is a rapid, qualitative, one-step immunoassay for urine drug screening. Device utilizes visual color sandwich immunochemical technology to detect benzodiazepines at a 200 ng/ml cutoff. Professional users perform the test in clinical settings. The assay relies on specific antibody-target analyte-antibody complexes to produce a visual result. Healthcare providers use the qualitative output to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of drug abuse. The device provides a rapid screening tool for clinical decision-making regarding patient drug use status.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical performance evaluated via clinical sample correlation study and blind labeled spiked study. Results showed 97.9% correlation with predicate devices for the qualitative detection of benzodiazepines in urine.
Technological Characteristics
Rapid, qualitative, one-step visual color sandwich immunoassay. Designed for professional use. Detects benzodiazepines at 200 ng/ml cutoff. No electronic components, software, or external energy sources required.
Indications for Use
Indicated for professional use in the qualitative detection of benzodiazepines (and other drugs of abuse including amphetamine, cocaine, methamphetamine, opiates, PCP, barbiturates, methadone, and THC depending on model) in human urine to assist in the diagnosis and treatment of drug abuse.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A benzodiazepine test system is a device intended to measure any of the benzodiazepine compounds, sedative and hypnotic drugs, in blood, plasma, and urine. The benzodiazepine compounds include chlordiazepoxide, diazepam, oxazepam, chlorzepate, flurazepam, and nitrazepam. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of benzodiazepine use or overdose and in monitoring levels of benzodiazepines to ensure appropriate therapy.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A benzodiazepine test system is not exempt if it is intended for any use other than employment or insurance testing or is intended for Federal drug testing programs. The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9, provided the test system is intended for employment and insurance testing and includes a statement in the labeling that the device is intended solely for use in employment and insurance testing, and does not include devices intended for Federal drug testing programs (*e.g.,* programs run by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. military).
