    i-Stat Alinity System with i-Stat Glucose test

    AI/MLSaMDIVD (In Vitro Diagnostic)TherapeuticDiagnosticis PCCP AuthorizedThirdpartyExpeditedreview
    Intended Use

    The i-STAT Alinity System with i-STAT Glucose test is intended for use or clinical laboratory settings. The i-STAT Alinity System with Glucose test is intended for the quantitative measurement of glucose in arterial and venous whole blood.

    Glucose measurements are used in the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of carbohydrate metabolism disorders including, but not limited to, diabetes mellitus, idiopathic hypoglycemia, and pancreatic islet cell carcinoma. The i-STAT Glucose test with the i-STAT Alinity System has not been evaluated in neonates.

    For in vitro diagnostic use.

    Device Description

    The i-STAT System is a handheld, in vitro diagnostic analytical device designed to run only i-STAT test cartridges. The system is designed for use by trained medical professionals at the patient point of care or in the clinical laboratory and is for prescription use only.

    The i-STAT Alinity System is comprised of the instrument, rechargeable battery, base station, electronic simulator, control material, printer and i-STAT test cartridges. The i-STAT Alinity Instrument features a barcode scanner, user interface with touch screen display and wireless capability. The instrument reports quantitative results within approximately 2 minutes.

    The i-STAT test cartridge contains test reagents which are located on the sensors. The instrument interacts with the cartridge to move fluid across the sensors and generate a quantitative result. Cartridges require two to three drops of whole blood which are typically applied to the cartridge using a syringe.

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document does not explicitly present a table of "acceptance criteria" vs. "reported performance" in a single, consolidated table with specific pass/fail thresholds. Instead, it details various performance characteristics and their observed results, implying that meeting these results demonstrates acceptable performance. I will construct a table reflecting this, drawing from the "Performance Characteristics" section.

    Performance CharacteristicAcceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance and Results
    Precision (Aqueous)Demonstrate acceptable within-laboratory, within-run, between-run, and between-day precision across 5 glucose levels.CV L1 (26.9 mg/dL): ST: 0.42 (1.56%CV), Sr: 0.22 (0.82%CV), Srr: 0.34 (1.26%CV), Sdd: 0.12 (0.45%CV)
    CV L2 (41.0 mg/dL): ST: 0.34 (0.83%CV), Sr: 0.20 (0.49%CV), Srr: 0.18 (0.44%CV), Sdd: 0.21 (0.51%CV)
    CV L3 (125.0 mg/dL): ST: 0.32 (0.26%CV), Sr: 0.21 (0.17%CV), Srr: 0.23 (0.18%CV), Sdd: 0.09 (0.07%CV)
    CV L4 (286.7 mg/dL): ST: 0.77 (0.27%CV), Sr: 0.53 (0.18%CV), Srr: 0.52 (0.18%CV), Sdd: 0.22 (0.08%CV)

    All results fall within typical expectations for precision in diagnostic devices.
    Precision (Whole Blood)Demonstrate acceptable within-instrument and total precision across 6 glucose levels.Concentration (mg/dL) / Total SD / Total %CV:

    2. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance

    This section generally refers to the performance studies.

    • Precision (Aqueous):
      • Sample Size: 80 measurements per level for 5 levels (Total N = 400 test results).
      • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but typically performed in a controlled laboratory setting (likely within the US, given the FDA submission). Retrospective/Prospective not specified, but usually prospective for such evaluations.
    • Precision (Whole Blood):
      • Sample Size: 21 test results per sample (3 tests x 7 instruments) for each of 6 concentration levels, across 3 sites. The total number of unique patient samples is not explicitly stated (the text mentions "venous whole blood (native or altered) samples targeted to six different glucose levels"). If each target level had a unique set of samples across sites, it would be at least 18 distinct sample pools (6 levels x 3 sites), each with 21 replicates.
      • Data Provenance: Performed at 3 point-of-care sites. Likely prospective, collecting fresh whole blood samples. Country of origin not specified, but likely US.
    • Linearity:
      • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated as a number of patient samples. It evaluated a "series of glucose concentration levels in whole blood."
      • Data Provenance: Not specified.
    • Recovery:
      • Sample Size: A "series of glucose concentration levels in whole blood." Not a specific count.
      • Data Provenance: Not specified.
    • Limit of Quantitation (LoQ):
      • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated, involved "whole blood that was altered to low glucose concentrations (
