A lipoprotein test system is a device intended to measure lipoprotein in serum and plasma. Lipoprotein measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders (such as diabetes mellitus), atherosclerosis, and various liver and renal diseases. A calibrator is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to establish points of reference that are used in the determination of values in the measurement of substances in human specimens.
Device Story
Olympus LDL Cholesterol Reagent and Calibrator; in vitro diagnostic reagents for quantitative determination of LDL cholesterol. Modification involves change in formulation and manufacturing source. Device used in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Output provides quantitative LDL cholesterol levels to assist clinicians in lipid profile assessment and cardiovascular risk management. Fundamental scientific technology remains unchanged from predicate.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence is based on the device's intended use and classification as a lipoprotein test system and calibrator.
Technological Characteristics
In vitro diagnostic reagent and calibrator system. Quantitative measurement of lipoprotein in serum/plasma. Class II device under 21 CFR 862.1150.
Indications for Use
Indicated for measurement of lipoprotein in serum and plasma to assist in diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders (e.g., diabetes mellitus), atherosclerosis, and liver/renal diseases. Intended for prescription use.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
