    Intended Use

    The Atellica® CH High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein 2 (hCRP2) assay is for in vitro diagnostic use in the quantitative determination of the concentration of C-Reactive Protein (CRP) in human serum and plasma (lithium heparin, sodium heparin or K2 EDTA) on the Atellica® CH Analyzer.

    Measurements from Atellica® CH High Sensitivity C -Reactive Protein 2 (hCRP2) may be used as an aid in identification of individuals at risk for future cardiovascular disease. Measurement of hCRP2, when used in coniunction with traditional clinical laboratory evaluation of acute coronary syndromes, may be useful as an independent marker of prognosis for recurrent events in patients with stable coronary disease or acute coronary syndromes.

    Device Description

    The Atellica CH High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein 2 (hCRP2) assay is used for the quantitative determination of C-Reactive protein in human serum and plasma using the Atellica CH analyzer. This device is two ready-to-use reagent packs consisting of 23.1mL Phosphate buffer, polidocanol (1.9g/L), and sodium azide (0.1%) in Pack 1 and 12.3mL Mouse anti-CRP monoclonal antibodies (13mg/L), polystyrene particles (1g/L), human albumin (0.05%) and sodium azide (<0.1%) in Pack 2. This product consists of two (2) kits consisting of 360 tests each for a total of 720 tests.

    Polystyrene particles coated with monoclonal antibodies specific to human CRP are aggregated when mixed with samples containing CRP. These aggregates scatter a beam of light passed through the sample. The intensity of the scattered light is proportional to the concentration of the respective protein in the sample. The result is evaluated by comparison with a standard of known concentration.

    The system automatically performs the following steps:

      1. For serum/plasma, dispenses 30 µL of primary sample and 90 µL of Atellica CH Diluent into a dilution cuvette.
      1. Dispenses 100 µL of Reagent 1 into a reaction cuvette.
      1. Dispenses 3 µL of pre-diluted sample into a reaction cuvette.
      1. Dispenses 45 µL of Reagent 2 into a reaction cuvette.
      1. Mixes and incubates the mixture at 37°C.
      1. Measures the absorbance after Reagent 2 addition.
      1. Reports results.

    Atellica CH High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein 2 (hCRP2) assay is used in conjunction with the Atellica CH Analyzer and Atellica CH Protein 2 Calibrator (PROT2 CAL)

This indicates the assay correctly identifies concentrations above the measuring interval and avoids a hook effect within the intended range.

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

    • Detection Capability:
      • LoB: 3 reagent lots, 6 blank samples, 5 replicates per sample = 90 determinations.
      • LoD: 495 determinations (270 blank, 225 low-level replicates) using 3 reagent lots.
      • LoQ: 5 native low analyte serum samples, 5 replicates each = 25 determinations.
    • Precision (Repeatability/Within-Lab): 80 replicates per specimen (5 serum samples + 1 QC, total 6 specimens).
    • Reproducibility (Multi-site/Multi-lot): 225 replicates per specimen (5 serum samples + 3 QCs, total 8 specimens).
    • Assay Comparison (Method Comparison): 100 patient samples.
    • Specimen Equivalency: 55 patient samples for each specimen type (Sodium Heparin, Potassium EDTA, Lithium Heparin).
    • Interferences (HIL & Non-interfering Substances): Not explicitly stated, but typically involves a smaller number of samples spiked with interferents at multiple analyte concentrations.

    Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but the sample types are human serum and plasma, diluted with Atellica CH diluent (saline) or enriched as needed. This usually implies a mix of commercially sourced and/or in-house collected human samples. There is no information regarding the country of origin or whether the studies were retrospective or prospective.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts:

    This device is an in vitro diagnostic test for C-Reactive Protein (CRP) concentration. The "ground truth" for a quantitative assay like this is typically established by:

    • Reference methods/standards (e.g., ERM-DA474/IFCC for CRP, as mentioned).
    • Comparative analysis against a legally marketed predicate device (BN ProSpec CardioPhase hsCRP).
    • Standard preparation and gravimetric/volumetric assurance for spiked samples or known concentrations.

    Therefore, "experts" in the sense of clinical reviewers or pathologists establishing a diagnostic ground truth is not applicable here. The accuracy of the measurements is compared against established analytical criteria and methodologies.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

    Not applicable in the context of this type of IVD performance study, as there is no subjective interpretation requiring adjudication of results from different observers. The output is a quantitative value (mg/L).

    5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done:

    No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is relevant for imaging or diagnostic tests where human interpretation plays a significant role and AI assistance might influence reader performance. For a quantitative in vitro diagnostic assay like high-sensitivity CRP, the measurement is automated and objective.

    6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done:

    Yes, the studies described (Detection Capability, Precision, Reproducibility, Assay Comparison, Specimen Equivalency, Interferences, High-Dose Hook Effect) are all standalone performance evaluations of the Atellica CH High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein 2 (hCRP2) assay as an automated laboratory test on the Atellica CH Analyzer. The device is intended for in vitro diagnostic use, meaning it operates without direct human interpretive input beyond running the test and reading the numerical result.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:

    The ground truth for this device is established through:

    • Analytical Standards: The assay is traceable to the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC) reference material ERM-DA474/IFCC, which serves as a primary ground truth for CRP concentration.
    • Predicate Device Comparison: The performance is compared against a legally marketed predicate device (BN ProSpec CardioPhase hsCRP assay), where the predicate's measurements serve as a comparative standard.
    • Reference Intervals: Expected values for cardiovascular risk prediction are based on established clinical guidelines (Pearson TA et al., 2003).
    • Spiked Samples: For interference studies, known concentrations of interfering substances are added to samples, and the known concentration of the analyte is the ground truth.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

    Not explicitly stated in the 510(k) summary. For a device like this, the "training set" would refer to the samples used during the development and optimization phase of the assay (e.g., reagent formulation, calibration curve development), rather than a machine learning training set. The approval document focuses on the validation or test sets.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

    Similar to point 7, the ground truth for potential "training" (development/optimization) would involve analytical standards (like ERM-DA474/IFCC), purified CRP, and well-characterized human serum/plasma samples, often with known CRP concentrations determined by reference methods or gravimetric/volumetric preparation. The goal would be to develop a robust assay that accurately measures CRP across its analytical range.

    Intended Use

    CardioPhase® hsCRP is an in-vitro diagnostic reagent for the quantitative determination of C-reactive protein (CRP) in human serum, and heparin and EDTA plasma by means of particle enhanced immunonephelometry using the BN II and BN ProSpec® System. In acute phase response, increased levels of plasma proteins, including C-reactive protein, is observed. Measurement of CRP is useful for the detection and evaluation of infection, tissue injury, inflammatory disorders and associated diseases. High sensitivity CRP (hsCRP) measurements may be used as an independent risk marker for the identification of individuals at risk for future cardiovascular disease. Measurements of hsCRP, when used in conjunction with traditional clinical laboratory evaluation of acute coronary syndromes, may be useful as an independent marker of prognosis for recurrent events, in patients with stable coronary disease or acute coronary syndromes.

    Device Description

    The CardioPhase hsCRP assay is an in vitro diagnostic reagent for the quantitative determination C-reactive protein, in human serum, and heparinized and EDTA plasma by means of particle-enhanced immunoassay determination. Polystyrene particles coated with monoclonal antibodies specific to human CRP are aggregated when mixed with samples containing CRP. These aggregates scatter a beam of light passed through the sample. The intensity of the scattered light is proportional to the concentration of the relevant protein in the sample. The result is evaluated by comparison with a standard of known concentration.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document describes the CardioPhase® hsCRP device, a C-reactive protein immunological test system, and a Special 510(k) submission for a change in its reference standard material from ERM-DA470 to ERM-DA474/IFCC.

    Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document doesn't explicitly state numerical acceptance criteria for all performance characteristics, but rather describes the studies performed and their satisfactory outcomes which imply meeting internal acceptance limits. For instance, for linearity, the stated ranges confirm the measuring range, implying that the observed linearity falls within acceptable deviations. For matrix comparison, high correlation coefficients and slopes close to 1 with intercepts close to 0 indicate acceptable equivalence.

    Performance CharacteristicAcceptance Criteria (Implicit/Explicit)Reported Device Performance
    Detection CapabilitiesLimit of Blank (LoB): Values below the respective Limit of Quantitation (LoQ). Limit of Detection (LoD): Greater than LoB and equal to or below LoQ. Limit of Quantitation (LoQ): An imprecision goal of less than 20% CV. (Specific numerical LoB/LoD not provided as acceptance criteria, but derived from the study.)LoB: All results measured on blank samples yielded results below the respective LoQ. LoD: Calculated parametrically, greater than LoB and equal to or below LoQ. LoQ: Set to 0.094 mg/L based on the sample/instrument/reagent lot combination with the highest imprecision observed in the study (<11% CV), meeting the <20% CV goal.
    LinearityDeviation between mean measured value and predicted value of weighted linear regression compared to predefined acceptance criteria. (Specific numerical acceptance criteria not explicitly stated).CRP sensitive (CRP2): Linear range 0.151 - 10.89 mg/L (confirming measuring range of 0.16-10 mg/L). CRP (CRP1): Linear range 1.478 – 224 mg/L (confirming measuring range of 3.1-100 mg/L). This implies that the predefined acceptance criteria were met.
    Method ComparisonThe predicted bias between the predicate and candidate assay should be within acceptable limits for intended use. (Specific numerical acceptance criteria not explicitly stated but implied by the reported bias values).CRP2: Predicted bias of 6.9% at 1 mg/L and 7.5% at 3 mg/L. CRP1: Predicted bias of 8.17% at 10 mg/L. These values are presented as satisfactory for demonstrating substantial equivalence.
    Matrix ComparisonEquivalence for serum vs. EDTA plasma and serum vs. heparin plasma, indicated by slope close to 1, intercept close to 0, and high Pearson Correlation Coefficient (r). (Specific numerical acceptance criteria for slope, intercept, and r not explicitly stated but implied by the conclusion of equivalence).CRP1: Slopes (0.972-1.018), Intercepts (-0.118-0.091), Pearson r (0.995-0.998). CRP2: Slopes (0.962-1.061), Intercepts (-0.132-0.072), Pearson r (0.970-0.983). Conclusion: Confirmed equivalence for serum and EDTA/lithium heparin plasma.
    TraceabilityCalibrator N Rheumatology Standard SL must be traceable to the IFCC European Reference Material ERM-DA474/IFCC.N Rheumatology Standard SL is traceable to Siemens internal Master Calibrator which is directly traceable to ERM-DA474/IFCC.
    Substantial EquivalenceThe modified device's performance should be substantially equivalent to the predicate device in terms of intended use, design, basic scientific principle, and performance, and the change should not affect safety and efficacy.The presented performance data and the conclusion that "The modified device, CardioPhase hsCRP traceable to ERM-DA474/IFCC, is substantially equivalent to the predicate device... based on intended use design, and basic scientific principle and performance."

    2. Sample Sizes Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    • Detection Capabilities (LoB, LoD, LoQ):

      • LoB: Five (5) independent analyte-free samples. Conducted with one (1) BN ProSpec System, one (1) BNII System, three (3) different reagent lots, one (1) calibrator lot, five (5) individual aliquots of each sample, and determination on three (3) days. This protocol resulted in 75 measurements per reagent lot, a total of 450 measurements (including the two workflows) on each of the two (2) analyzers, resulting in 900 measurements overall.
      • LoD/LoQ: Serum samples with concentrations ranging from approximately 0.05 mg/L to 0.26 mg/L CRP. Five replicates of six patient samples were run once per day for five days using three hsCRP Reagent lots on one BNProSpec and one BN II, totaling 1080 determinations.
      • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated (e.g., country of origin). The samples are referred to as "analyte-free" and "patient samples" (serum), implying clinical relevance and likely of human origin. The study appears to be prospective as it was specifically designed for this evaluation.
    • Linearity:

      • Sample Size: A high CRP serum pool was mixed with a low serum pool to generate 13 concentrations. Each level was tested in four-fold determination.
      • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated (e.g., country of origin). The samples are described as "serum pool," implying human origin. The study appears to be prospective.
    • Method Comparison:

      • Sample Size: Native samples in the range of 0.27 and 11.90 mg/L for CRP2 and native samples in the range of 3.87 and 61.40 mg/L for CRP1. The exact number of samples is not explicitly given, but it implies a sufficient number to perform linear regression and bias calculations across the specified ranges.
      • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated (e.g., country of origin). Native samples imply human origin. The study appears to be prospective for this comparison.
    • Matrix Comparison:

      • Sample Size: For each sample type (EDTA plasma and lithium heparin plasma compared to serum), a total of 60 native samples spanning the measuring range were evaluated.
      • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated (e.g., country of origin). Native samples imply human origin. The study appears to be prospective.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

    For this in-vitro diagnostic device (quantitative determination of C-reactive protein), "ground truth" is typically established by reference methods or gravimetrically prepared standards with known concentrations, or by comparison to a reference standard material.

    • Traceability and Standardization: The ground truth for this device is primarily established by its traceability to the IFCC European Reference Material ERM-DA474/IFCC, which is "certified for C-reactive protein measurements." This reference material serves as the "expert" or definitive standard.
    • No human expert panel for ground truth: Unlike image-based diagnostic devices, this type of immunoassay does not involve human experts establishing a "ground truth" based on interpretations (e.g., radiologists labeling images). The "ground truth" is analytical and defined by international reference standards.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not applicable in the conventional sense. For an in-vitro diagnostic assay that measures a quantitative analyte, the "ground truth" is the certified value assigned to reference materials or the result from a highly accurate reference method. There is no subjective interpretation by multiple human adjudicators in the way there would be for an imaging diagnosis.

    5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

    No. This is an in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) device for quantitative measurement of a biomarker (CRP). MRMC studies are typically performed for devices that involve human interpretation, such as imaging AI applications, to assess how AI assistance impacts human reader performance. This device does not have a "human reader" component in that context.

    6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study

    Yes, entirely. The entire performance evaluation (detection capabilities, linearity, method comparison, matrix comparison) demonstrates the standalone performance of the CardioPhase® hsCRP assay system (reagent and instrument) in measuring CRP levels. The device itself, once calibrated, provides a quantitative result without human-in-the-loop performance influencing the measurement. The human role is in operating the instrument and interpreting the numerical result in a clinical context, but not in directly influencing the measurement itself.

    7. Type of Ground Truth Used

    The ground truth used is primarily certified reference materials (ERM-DA474/IFCC) and comparative analysis against a previously cleared predicate device (which itself was traceable to ERM-DA470) which acts as a well-established reference. The "ground truth" for the calibrator N Rheumatology Standard SL is its traceability to the Siemens internal Master Calibrator, which in turn is directly traceable to ERM-DA474/IFCC.

    8. Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable. This document describes the performance evaluation of a change to an existing in-vitro diagnostic reagent and its calibrator. This is not a machine learning or AI-based device that typically requires a "training set" in the context of model development. The characterization studies described are for analytical performance verification of the assay system, rather than training a computational algorithm.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    Not applicable, as there is no "training set" for this type of IVD device.

    Intended Use

    The ADVIA Chemistry CardioPhase High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein assay is for in vitro diagnostic use in the quantitative determination of the concentration of C-Reactive Protein (CRP) in human serum and plasma (lithium heparin or potassium EDTA) on the ADVIA Chemistry systems. In acute phase response, increased levels of a number of plasma proteins, including CRP, are observed. Measurement of CRP is useful for the detection and evaluation of infection, tissue injury, inflammatory disorders, and associated diseases. High sensitivity CRP (hsCRP) measurements may be used as an independent risk marker for the identification of individuals at risk for future cardiovascular disease. Measurement of hsCRP, when used in conjunction with traditional clinical laboratory evaluation of acute coronary syndromes, may be useful as an independent marker of prognosis for recurrent events in patients with stable coronary disease or acute coronary syndromes.

    The ADVIA Chemistry CardioPhase High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein Calibrators are for in vitro diagnostic use in the calibration of ADVIA Chemistry systems for the CardioPhase High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein method.

    Device Description

    The ADVIA Chemistry CardioPhase™ High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein assay is for in vitro diagnostic use in the quantitative determination of the concentration of C-Reactive Protein (CRP) in human serum and plasma on the ADVIA Chemistry systems. The CardioPhaseTM hsCRP latex reagent is a suspension of uniform polystyrene latex particles coated with anti-CRP antibody. When serum or plasma containing CRP is mixed with the latex reagent, agglutination takes place resulting in an increase in turbidity. This turbidity is measured at 571 nm. The CRP concentration in serum or plasma is determined from a calibration curve that is generated with the calibrators.

    The ADVIA® Chemistry CardioPhase™ High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein Calibrators consist of six (6) levels of protein stabilized matrices containing varying concentrations of recombinant human CRP. The Calibrators have targeted values (lot specific) of 0, 0.53, 1.05, 1.58, 5.25, and 10.50 mg/L.

    The calibrators (1 mL/vial) are liquid and ready to use. Storage is at 2 - 8℃.

    AI/ML Overview

    Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study proving the device meets them, based on the provided text:

    Important Note: The provided document is a 510(k) summary for an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) device, specifically a C-Reactive Protein (CRP) assay. For IVDs, the "device performance" and "acceptance criteria" are typically related to analytical performance (e.g., precision, accuracy, linearity, interference) rather than diagnostic accuracy (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, AUC) in the way a medical imaging AI would be evaluated. The "ground truth" and "experts" mentioned in your request are more relevant to AI/imaging diagnostics. Therefore, I will adapt the answers to fit the context of this IVD device.


    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance for ADVIA® Chemistry CardioPhase High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hsCRP) Assay (K081294)

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    Since this is an IVD device, acceptance criteria are generally established against pre-defined analytical performance targets or by demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device. The document explicitly states that "All of the evaluation studies gave acceptable results compared to the predicate device." While specific numerical acceptance limits aren't always explicitly listed in the summary, the reported performance metrics are presented in comparison to the predicate or against generally accepted analytical standards for such assays.

    Performance CharacteristicAcceptance Criteria (Implied/Compared to Predicate)Reported Device Performance (ADVIA Chemistry CardioPhase hsCRP)
    Imprecision (Within Run CV%)Comparable to predicate device; generally low CV% for IVD assays.Levels (mg/L):- 0.21: 3.2%- 1.04: 1.1%- 3.12: 0.8%- 10.27: 1.4%
    Imprecision (Total CV%)Comparable to predicate device; generally low CV% for IVD assays.Levels (mg/L):- 0.21: 4.2%- 1.04: 1.2%- 3.12: 1.3%- 10.27: 1.6%
    Method Comparison (Correlation with Predicate)Strong linear correlation (e.g., slope near 1, intercept near 0, high r value) with predicate.Regression Equation (Passing Bablok): Y = 1.00x + 0.01Regression Equation (Least Squares): Y = 1.01x - 0.01Correlation Coefficient (r): 0.998
    Interfering Substances (Effect % Change)Minimal interference (e.g., within +/- 10% or pre-defined clinical significance).Effect (Max % Change from listed substances):- Hemoglobin: -9%- Lipids: -7%- Bilirubin, free: 4%- Bilirubin, conjugated: 0%- Rheumatoid Factor: 8%
    Analytical RangeAppropriately wide and clinically relevant range.0.16 to 10 mg/L

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    • Sample Size for Method Comparison (Test Set): 167 (for serum samples comparing the new device to the predicate).
    • Data Provenance: The document does not specify the country of origin or whether the data was retrospective or prospective. Given the nature of laboratory method comparison studies, these are typically prospective evaluations using clinical samples collected for testing.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

    This is not applicable in the typical sense for this IVD assay. For an IVD, the "ground truth" for method comparison is essentially the result obtained from the established, legally marketed predicate device. The analytical validity is determined by how closely the new device's results correlate with the predicate, rather than by expert interpretation of individual cases.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not applicable. There is no adjudication process involving human experts interpreting results to establish a ground truth for a quantitative immunoassay like this. The comparison is purely numerical between two analytical instruments/methods.

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, If So, What Was the Effect Size of How Much Human Readers Improve with AI vs Without AI Assistance

    Not applicable. MRMC studies are relevant for medical imaging diagnostics where human readers (e.g., radiologists) interpret images, and AI might assist in that interpretation. This document describes an automated laboratory assay for measuring a biomarker (CRP), not an imaging AI.

    6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

    Yes, in the context of an IVD, the performance outlined is the "standalone" performance of the assay system itself. The reported imprecision, method correlation, and interference studies describe how the ADVIA Chemistry CardioPhase hsCRP assay performs autonomously on the ADVIA 1650 system. The human involvement is in operating the instrument and interpreting the quantitative results, not in a diagnostic interpretation loop that the device enhances or replaces.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    For the analytical performance studies:

    • Method Comparison: The "ground truth" was established by the results from the predicate device (Siemens Healthcare CardioPhase™ High Sensitivity CRP on the BNII Systems). The objective was to show that the new device's measurements align with those of an already accepted method.
    • Imprecision, Interfering Substances, Analytical Range: These studies used known concentrations of analytes (e.g., controls, spiked samples) as their internal reference ("ground truth") to measure the device's consistency, susceptibility to interference, and operational range.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable in the context of this traditional IVD assay. "Training set" refers to data used to train machine learning algorithms. This device is a biochemical assay, not an AI/ML product, and therefore does not have a "training set" in that sense. Its development involved chemical and engineering optimization, and its performance is demonstrated through analytical studies.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    Not applicable, as there is no training set for this type of device.

    Intended Use

    High Sensitivity Cardiac C-Reactive Protein (CCRP) reagent, when used in conjunction with IMMAGE® 800 Immunochemistry Systems and Calibrator 5 Plus, is intended for the quantitative determination of C-Reactive protein in human serum or plasma by rate turbidimetry.

    Measurement of C-Reactive protein (CRP) aids in evaluation of stress, trauma, infection, inflammation, surgery, and associated diseases. Cardiac CRP assays are indicated for use as an aid in the identification and stratification of individuals at risk for future cardiovascular disease. When used in conjunction with traditional clinical laboratory evaluation of acute coronary syndromes, CRP may be useful as an independent marker of prognosis for recurrent events in patients with stable coronary disease or acute coronary syndrome.

    CAL 5 Plus (Calibrator 5 Plus), when used in conjunction with Beckman Coulter reagents, is intended for use on IMMAGE® Immunochemistry Systems for the calibration of Anti-Streptolysin O (ASO), C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and Rheumatoid Factor (RF).

    Device Description

    High Sensitivity Cardiac C-Reactive Protein (CCRP) reagent is intended for the quantitative determination of C-Reactive protein in human serum or plasma by rate turbidimetry. The IMMAGE® 800 Immunochemistry Systems CCRP reagent is based on the highly sensitive Near Infrared Particle Immunoassay rate methodology. An anti-CRP antibody-coated particle binds to CRP in the patient sample resulting in the formation of insoluble aggregates causing turbidity. The rate of aggregate formation is directly proportional to the concentration of CRP in the sample.

    CAL 5 Plus (Calibrator 5 Plus) is a frozen liquid serum matrix intended for use on IMMAGE® Immunochemistry Systems for the calibration of Anti-Streptolysin O (ASO), C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and Rheumatoid Factor (RF).

    AI/ML Overview

    Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the Immage® 800 Immunochemistry Systems High Sensitivity Cardiac C-Reactive Protein (CCRP) Reagent, based on the provided document:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document does not explicitly state "acceptance criteria" in a quantitative format for method comparison, linearity, or imprecision (e.g., "slope must be between X and Y"). However, it presents the results of these studies, and the FDA's decision to grant substantial equivalence implies that these results met their internal criteria for acceptance.

    For the purpose of this analysis, I will infer the implicit acceptance criteria from the context of standard analytical performance requirements for diagnostic devices and the successful outcome of the 510(k) submission.

    Performance CharacteristicAcceptance Criteria (Inferred)Reported Device Performance (Immage® High Sensitivity Cardiac CCRP Reagent)
    Method Comparison
    Slope (vs. Predicate)Close to 1.00.965 (0.2 to 60 mg/L)
    1.013 (0.2 to 10 mg/L)
    Intercept (vs. Predicate)Close to 00.334 (0.2 to 60 mg/L)
    -0.026 (0.2 to 10 mg/L)
    R (Correlation Coefficient)Close to 1.00.9962 (0.2 to 60 mg/L)
    0.9939 (0.2 to 10 mg/L)
    Imprecision (Within-Run)%CV typically < 5-10%Level 1: 2.8% (Mean 0.807 mg/dL)
    Level 2: 3.0% (Mean 13.56 mg/dL)
    Level 3: 3.3% (Mean 51.538 mg/dL)
    Imprecision (Total)%CV typically < 5-10%Level 1: 3.5% (Mean 0.807 mg/dL)
    Level 2: 3.1% (Mean 13.56 mg/dL)
    Level 3: 4.3% (Mean 51.538 mg/dL)
    Stability (Calibrator)At least 24 monthsPredicted 32-33 months (based on accelerated studies)
    LinearityDevice should demonstrate linearity across its stated analytical range (0.2 to 60.0 mg/L, extended to 1440.0 mg/L).No specific data presented in the summary, but implied to be acceptable for 510(k) submission. Documentation notes "linearity experiments" were performed.

    Note: The "acceptance criteria" are inferred based on typical industry standards for analytical performance. The document itself states that "The data in the Premarket Notification on safety and effectiveness supports a finding of substantial equivalence... Equivalence is demonstrated through method comparison, stability, linearity, and imprecision experiments." This indicates the reported performance met the internal criteria for FDA clearance.


    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    • Method Comparison Test Set:
      • N: 157 samples (for range 0.2 to 60 mg/L) and 98 samples (for range 0.2 to 10 mg/L).
      • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective). However, given it's a clinical diagnostic test, samples would typically be from human serum or plasma. It's common for such studies to use a combination of prospective patient samples and spiked samples to cover the analytical range. The document refers to "the patient sample," suggesting clinical samples were used.
    • Imprecision Test Set:
      • N: 80 replicates per level (three levels tested).
      • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated. These would typically be internal quality control materials or pooled patient samples.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

    • Not Applicable. This device is a diagnostic reagent for quantitative measurement of a biomarker (CRP). The "ground truth" for quantitative assays is established by reference methods or established predicate devices, not by expert consensus in the way image-based or clinical diagnostic (e.g., physician-interpreted) devices use experts.
      • The "ground truth" for the method comparison study was the results obtained from the Dade Behring CardioPhase hsCRP predicate device.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    • Not Applicable. As described above, this is a quantitative measurement device, not one requiring human interpretation and subsequent adjudication of discrepancies. The comparison is statistical against a predicate device.

    5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

    • No. An MRMC study is not relevant for this type of in vitro diagnostic device (reagent for quantitative measurement). MRMC studies are used for devices that involve human interpretation of images or other data, often to assess the impact of AI assistance on diagnostic accuracy.

    6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study

    • Yes. This is a standalone performance study. The Immage® High Sensitivity Cardiac CCRP Reagent, when used with the IMMAGE® 800 Immunochemistry Systems, directly provides a quantitative result. There is no human interpretation of raw data or "human-in-the-loop" decision-making that modifies the final reported CRP concentration from the device. The reported values are the output of the algorithm/reagent system itself.

    7. Type of Ground Truth Used

    • Predicate Device Results (Comparative Ground Truth): For the method comparison, the "ground truth" was effectively the results obtained from the legally marketed Dade Behring CardioPhase hsCRP predicate device. The goal was to show substantial equivalence, meaning the new device's results correlate highly and agree well with the predicate.
    • Quantitative Analytical Targets: For imprecision and linearity studies, the "ground truth" would be established concentrations in quality control materials or spiked samples.

    8. Sample Size for the Training Set

    • Not explicitly stated in the summary. This document is a 510(k) summary, which focuses on validation data rather than detailed development or training data. For a reagent (chemical/immunological assay), the "training set" doesn't typically refer to a data set for machine learning in the same way it would for an AI algorithm. Instead, it would refer to the samples and experiments used during the assay development and optimization phase to establish reagents, reaction conditions, and calibration curve parameters. This detailed development data is not usually included in a 510(k) summary.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    • Not explicitly stated in the summary. Similar to point 8, the "ground truth" for developing and optimizing an analytical reagent would involve:
      • Known concentrations: Using reference materials or gravimetrically prepared standards with known CRP concentrations.
      • Comparison to existing methods: Benchmarking against established reference methods or predicate devices during development to refine the assay's performance and ensure it meets desired analytical characteristics (sensitivity, specificity, dynamic range).

    This process is part of the extensive R&D phase that precedes the formal validation studies presented in the 510(k) submission.

SYNCHRON® System(s) CRPH reagent is based on the highly sensitive Near Infrared Particle Immunoassay rate methodology. An anti-CRP antibody-coated particle binds to CRP in the patient sample resulting in the formation of insoluble aggregates causing turbidity.

    AI/ML Overview

    Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the SYNCHRON® Systems High Sensitivity Cardiac C-Reactive Protein (CRPH) Reagent, addressing your specific questions:

    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance Study

    The submission focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices through performance data rather than defining explicit acceptance criteria in the typical sense of a target performance metric (e.g., "sensitivity must be >90%"). Instead, the "acceptance criteria" are implied by the demonstration that the new device performs comparably to the predicate device and meets established analytical performance standards (linearity, imprecision).

    The study that "proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" is the Summary of Performance Data presented in section 8.0.

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and the Reported Device Performance

    ParameterImplied Acceptance Criteria (Demonstrated Equivalence/Analytical Performance)Reported Device Performance (SYNCHRON Cardiac CRPH)
    Method ComparisonStrong correlation with predicate device (Dade Behring CardioPhase hsCRP)0.2 to 80 mg/L range:Slope: 1.048Intercept: 0.024Correlation Coefficient (r): 0.98990.2 to 10 mg/L range:Slope: 1.030Intercept: -0.008Correlation Coefficient (r): 0.9910
    ImprecisionLow variability (e.g., %CV within acceptable clinical laboratory limits)Within-Run Imprecision (N=80 for each level):- Level 1 (Mean 0.063 mg/dL): S.D. 0.0019 mg/dL, %C.V. 3.1- Level 2 (Mean 1.368 mg/dL): S.D. 0.0222 mg/dL, %C.V. 1.6- Level 3 (Mean 5.639 mg/dL): S.D. 0.0907 mg/dL, %C.V. 1.6Total Imprecision (N=80 for each level):- Level 1 (Mean 0.063 mg/dL): S.D. 0.0033 mg/dL, %C.V. 5.3- Level 2 (Mean 1.368 mg/dL): S.D. 0.0381 mg/dL, %C.V. 2.8- Level 3 (Mean 5.639 mg/dL): S.D. 0.1823 mg/dL, %C.V. 3.2
    LinearityNot explicitly detailed in the provided summary, but mentioned as performed
    StabilityNot explicitly detailed in the provided summary, but mentioned as performed

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

    • Sample Size (Method Comparison):
      • 269 samples for the 0.2 to 80 mg/L range comparison.
      • 149 samples for the 0.2 to 10 mg/L range comparison.
    • Sample Size (Imprecision): 80 replicates for each of the 3 levels tested (total 240 measurements for within-run, and 240 for total imprecision).
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated in the provided document (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective). This information is typically found in the full study report, not necessarily in a 510(k) summary. Given the context of clinical laboratory testing, it's highly likely to be a prospective collection of human serum or plasma samples.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

    • Not Applicable. For an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) device like a C-Reactive Protein reagent, the "ground truth" is established by the results of a predicate quantitative assay, not by expert interpretation of images or patient data. The predicate method (Dade Behring CardioPhase hsCRP) serves as the reference standard whose results are compared to the new device.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set

    • Not Applicable. As this is a quantitative chemical assay, there is no "adjudication" in the sense of reconciling differing expert opinions. The comparison is directly between the numerical results of two laboratory methods.

    5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

    • Not Applicable. This is an IVD reagent (a laboratory test kit) for quantitative measurement, not an AI-assisted diagnostic imaging or interpretation device that involves human readers.

    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done

    • Yes, but framed differently. The "standalone performance" is essentially what's demonstrated in the Method Comparison and Imprecision studies. The SYNCHRON® Systems High Sensitivity Cardiac CRPH Reagent, in conjunction with the specified SYNCHRON LX 20 PRO System, UniCel® DxC 600/800 System(s), and SYNCHRON® Systems CAL 5 Plus, provides a quantitative result directly. There is no human intervention in the interpretation of the result to arrive at the CRP concentration, other than the standard laboratory procedures for running the test.

    7. The type of ground truth used

    • The ground truth for the method comparison study was the results obtained from the predicate device, Dade Behring CardioPhase hsCRP.
    • For the imprecision study, the "ground truth" is the true concentration within the assayed samples, which the device aims to measure consistently. The reported mean values serve as the estimate of this truth for assessing variability.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    • Not explicitly stated/Not applicable in the AI sense. For an IVD reagent, there isn't a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI algorithms. The "training" for such reagents involves optimizing the chemical formulation and assay parameters based on extensive laboratory testing and validation during development. The provided document shows the performance verification data.

    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

    • Not applicable in the AI sense. As there's no "training set" for an AI algorithm, there's no ground truth established in that manner. The development and optimization of the reagent formulation and assay procedure would have involved internal validation against known standards and reference materials, but these are part of the reagent's analytical design, rather than a "training set" for an algorithm.

    Device Description

    The IMMULITE 2500 High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein Immunoassav is a solid-phase, two-site, chemiluminescent immunometric assay for use with the IMMULITE 2500 Automated Analyzer,

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the IMMULITE® 2500 High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein Immunoassay. It describes the device, its intended use, and its substantial equivalence to a predicate device. However, it does not contain the detailed study information needed to fill out all requested sections about acceptance criteria, device performance, ground truth establishment, or sample sizes for testing and training.

    Therefore, I can only provide limited information based on the text provided.

    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance

    The provided document does not explicitly state specific acceptance criteria in terms of precision, accuracy, or correlation coefficients, nor does it present detailed study results proving the device meets particular thresholds. It asserts substantial equivalence to a predicate device, which inherently means its performance should align with the predicate's established performance for the intended uses. Without specific study data from the document, I cannot create a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance.

    Study Information Based on Provided Text:

    Here's what can be inferred or explicitly stated from the given text:

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

      • Acceptance Criteria: Not explicitly stated in the provided document. The 510(k) process relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device rather than meeting specific performance thresholds presented in the summary.
      • Reported Device Performance: Not detailed in the provided document. The document describes the device and its intended use but does not present the results of performance studies (e.g., accuracy, precision, linearity).
    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):

      • Sample Size for Test Set: Not specified in the provided document.
      • Data Provenance: Not specified in the provided document.
    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience):

      • Number of Experts: Not applicable or specified. This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) immunoassay. The "ground truth" for such devices typically refers to a reference method or validated standard, not expert consensus as in imaging studies.
      • Qualifications of Experts: Not applicable or specified.
    4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

      • Adjudication Method: Not applicable or specified. This is relevant for studies involving human interpretation (e.g., radiology), not typically for automated immunoassay performance evaluation.
    5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

      • MRMC Comparative Effectiveness Study: Not applicable. This device is an automated immunoassay for quantitative measurement of C-reactive protein, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for human interpretation.
    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

      • Standalone Performance: The IMMULITE® 2500 High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein Immunoassay is an automated, standalone diagnostic test. Its performance is evaluated intrinsically through analytical studies (e.g., precision, accuracy, linearity) against reference methods, rather than in conjunction with human-in-the-loop scenarios. The summary does not provide details of these studies or their results.
    7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):

      • Type of Ground Truth: For an immunoassay, the "ground truth" for performance studies would typically be established using a reference method, a comparative method deemed accurate, or certified reference materials/calibrators with known concentrations of C-reactive protein. The specific method used is not detailed in this summary.
    8. The sample size for the training set:

      • Sample Size for Training Set: Not applicable or specified. This device is a traditional immunoassay, not a machine learning or AI algorithm that requires a "training set" in the computational sense. Its reagents and calibration curves are developed and optimized through laboratory procedures, not by training on a dataset.
    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

      • Ground Truth for Training Set: Not applicable. As explained above, this is not an AI/ML device that uses a training set with established ground truth labels in the typical sense. Reagent and assay development involves standard chemical and biological validation processes.

    Intended Use

    The Stratus® CS Acute Care™ CardioPhase® hsCRP method is an in vitro diagnostic reagent for the quantitative determination of C-reactive protein (CRP) in lithium and sodium heparin plasma. This method is for use by trained health care professionals in the clinical laboratory and point of care (POC) settings.

    In acute phase response, increased levels of a number of plasma proteins, including C-reactive protein, is observed. Measurement of CRP is useful for the detection and evaluation of infection, tissue injury, inflammatory disorders and associated diseases. High sensitivity CRP (hsCRP) measurements may be used as an independent risk marker for the identification of individuals at risk for future cardiovascular disease. Measurements of hsCRP, when used in conjunction with traditional clinical laboratory evaluation of acute coronary syndromes, may be useful as an independent marker of prognosis for recurrent events, in patients with stable coronary disease or acute coronary syndromes.

    Device Description

    The Stratus® CS Acute Care™ CardioPhase® hsCRP method is a two-site sandwich assay based upon solid phase Radial Partition Immunoassay (RPIA) technology.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for the "Stratus® CS Acute Care™ CardioPhase® hsCRP TestPak". This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device for an in vitro diagnostic reagent and is not an AI/ML device.

    Therefore, many of the requested categories (such as sample size for test set, data provenance, number of experts, adjudication method, MRMC study, standalone performance, training set sample size, and ground truth for training set) are not applicable or not detailed in the context of an IVD reagent submission for an expanded indication of use (Point of Care settings). The study described is a comparison of performance between laboratory and non-laboratory personnel to support the expanded use.

    Here's the information that can be extracted from the provided text, adapted to the nature of this submission:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document states that "Precision and accuracy data generated by 'non-laboratory' personnel is comparable to precision and accuracy data generated by 'laboratory' personnel." This implies the acceptance criteria was likely "comparability" of performance.

    Acceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
    Precision and Accuracy Data from Non-Laboratory Personnel is Comparable to Laboratory PersonnelPrecision and accuracy data generated by "non-laboratory" personnel is comparable to precision and accuracy data generated by "laboratory" personnel.

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for specific test sets but referred to as "Method comparison and precision analyses."
    • Data Provenance: The study was conducted at "three different locations (clinical laboratory (LAB), Emergency Department (ED) and Cardiac Care Unit (CCU) within one external evaluation site)." This suggests prospective data collection at these clinical sites. The country of origin is not specified, but the manufacturer is Dade Behring Inc. in Newark, DE (USA).

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of those Experts

    This is not applicable to a submission for an in vitro diagnostic reagent where performance is assessed through analytical studies (precision, accuracy, method comparison) rather than expert interpretation of images or other subjective data. The "ground truth" would be the established reference method or comparative device's results.

    4. Adjudication Method

    Not applicable for an in vitro diagnostic reagent performance study. Results are quantitative measurements compared against a reference.

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

    This is not an AI/ML device, so an MRMC study is not applicable. The study involved different operators (laboratory vs. non-laboratory personnel) to assess performance in different settings.

    6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

    This is an in vitro diagnostic reagent, not an algorithm. The device itself (reagent and instrument) is a standalone measurement system. The study compares its performance when operated by different types of users (laboratory vs. point-of-care personnel).

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    The "ground truth" for the performance evaluation would be the results obtained by the predicate device (Dade Behring Stratus® CS CardioPhase® hsCRP TestPak, K060369) or a reference method, as the study is a method comparison and precision analysis.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable. This is an in vitro diagnostic reagent for which performance is analytically validated, not an AI/ML model that requires training data.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    Not applicable, as it is not an AI/ML device requiring a training set.

High sensitivity CRP (hsCRP) measurements when used in conjunction with traditional clinical laboratory evaluation of acute coronary syndrome may be useful as an independent marker for recurrent events in patients with stable coronary disease or acute coronary syndrome.

    Device Description

    The IMMULITE/IMMULITE 1000 and IMMULITE 2000 High Sensitivity CRP is a solid-phase, chemiluminescent immunometric assay. The assay utilizes a 14-inch polystyrene bead coated with anti-ligand. The bead is co-incubated with sample, murine monoclonal anti-CRP, and alkaline phosphatase (bovine calf intestine)-conjugated to rabbit polyclonal anti-CRP in buffer for 30 minutes on each IMMULITE/IMMULITE 1000 and IMMULITE 2000 platform. Unbound enzyme conjugate is removed by a centrifugal wash procedure. Substrate is added and the resulting chemiluminescence is read in the luminometer.

    2. Sample Sizes Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

    The available document describes performance studies, clinical comparisons, and assay characteristics for both the IMMULITE/IMMULITE 1000 and the IMMULITE 2000 assays.

    • Method Comparison (Test Set):

      • IMMULITE/IMMULITE 1000 vs. Dade Behring N HSCRP:
        • Full range (0.3 to 22.9 mg/L): N=175 samples
        • Range < 10 mg/L (0.3 to 9.4 mg/L): N=165 samples (a subset of the full range)
      • IMMULITE 2000 vs. Dade Behring N HSCRP:
        • Full range (0.2 to 22.9 mg/L): N=185 samples
        • Range < 10 mg/L (0.2 to 9.4 mg/L): N=175 samples (a subset of the full range)
    • Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin for the samples used in the method comparison or whether the data was retrospective or prospective. Given the nature of a 510(k) submission and the context of comparing a new device to an existing predicate, it's highly probable that these were prospective studies conducted using patient samples in a clinical laboratory setting. However, this is not definitively stated.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts:

    This information is not applicable to the provided document. The "ground truth" for the method comparison studies was established by the measurement results from the legally marketed predicate device, the Dade Behring N High Sensitivity CRP assay. There were no human experts or diagnosticians establishing ground truth for these quantitative measurements.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

    This information is not applicable to the provided document. Adjudication methods are typically used in clinical studies where subjective interpretations (e.g., image readings, clinical assessments) are made by multiple experts, and disagreements need to be resolved. In this context of quantitative laboratory assays, the comparison is directly between the numerical results of two different analytical methods, not subjective expert interpretations.

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

    This information is not applicable to the provided document. The device is an in vitro diagnostic assay (a laboratory test) that provides a quantitative measurement. It is not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool that human readers would interpret or use to improve their performance. Therefore, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study involving human readers and AI assistance is not relevant to this device.

    6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    This information is partially applicable to the provided document. The performance characteristics described (Working Range, Analytical Sensitivity, Functional Sensitivity, Precision, Linearity, Spiked Recovery, Interfering Substances, Cross-Reactivity, High Dose Hook Effect) represent the "standalone" performance of the IMMULITE/IMMULITE 1000 and IMMULITE 2000 assays. These are objective measurements of the device's analytical capabilities without human interpretation influencing the numerical result. The method comparison study also assesses the standalone numerical output against a predicate. While a human initiates the test and reviews the result, the core performance reported is the algorithm/assay's ability to accurately quantify CRP.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):

    The ground truth for the performance studies and method comparison was primarily:

    • Reference Standards: The assays are standardized to WHO IS 85/506 and CRM 470 reference standards.
    • Predicate Device Measurements: For the method comparison, the measurements obtained from the legally marketed Dade Behring N High Sensitivity CRP assay served as the comparator or "ground truth" to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
    • Established Analytical Methods: For other performance characteristics (e.g., precision, linearity), standard analytical methodologies and established quality control practices define the expected performance against internal standards or known concentrations.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

    The document describes a 510(k) submission for an in vitro diagnostic assay, which typically does not involve machine learning algorithms that require "training sets" in the conventional sense. The performance characteristics and comparison studies are analogous to "test sets" for verifying the analytical performance of the assay.

    However, the "Expected Values" section mentions: "A study performed on 100 apparently healthy volunteers yielded a median of 1.4 mg/L and an upper 97.5th percentile of 11 mg/L." This could be considered a reference range study, but it's not a "training set" for an algorithm.

    The document states that assay reagents, components, and performance characteristics "remain as previously established in 510(k) K003372." This implies that the current submission builds upon previous extensive validation data, which would have involved numerous samples (calibrators, controls, patient samples) used in the development and initial validation of the original IMMULITE hsCRP assays. The sample sizes for those earlier studies are not detailed in this specific document.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

    As there is no "training set" for a machine learning algorithm described, this question is not directly applicable. If considering the development and validation of the original assays (from K003372), the "ground truth" for calibrators and controls would be established through highly characterized reference materials (like WHO IS 85/506 and CRM 470) and rigorous analytical chemistry methods. For patient samples used in method development, the "ground truth" would be the measurements obtained from an established, clinically accepted reference method or comparison to other well-validated commercial assays.
