Intended Use
The Triage BNP test is intended for use with Beckman Coulter Immunoassay Systems (Access, Access 2, Synchron LXi 725 and UniCel Dxl 800) for the in vitro quantitative measurement of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) in plasma specimens using EDTA as the anticoagulant. The test is intended to be used as an aid in the diagnosis and assessment of severity of congestive heart failure (also referred to heart failure). The test is used for the risk stratification of patients with acute coronary syndromes and for the risk stratification of patients with heart failure.
Device Story
Triage BNP Test is an in vitro diagnostic assay for use on Beckman Coulter Immunoassay Systems (Access, Access 2, Synchron LXi 725, UniCel Dxl 800). Device measures B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) in EDTA plasma specimens. Clinicians use quantitative BNP results to aid in diagnosis and severity assessment of congestive heart failure, and for risk stratification of patients with acute coronary syndromes or heart failure. Higher BNP concentrations or lack of decrease during hospitalization indicate increased risk of death or hospitalization. Device operates via automated immunoassay systems in clinical laboratory settings.
Clinical Evidence
No new clinical trials performed. Sponsor provided five peer-reviewed articles demonstrating clinical utility of BNP for risk stratification in heart failure patients. Literature included a systematic review (Doust et al., 2005) of 24 studies confirming BNP as a strong prognostic indicator. Analytical performance, precision, linearity, and method comparison (n=412, r=0.95) were previously established under k033383.
Indicated for in vitro quantitative measurement of BNP in EDTA plasma to aid in diagnosis and severity assessment of congestive heart failure, and for risk stratification of patients with acute coronary syndromes or heart failure.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
The B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) test system is an in vitro diagnostic device intended to measure BNP in whole blood and plasma. Measurements of BNP are used as an aid in the diagnosis of patients with congestive heart failure.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control is “Class II Special Control Guidance Document for B-Type Natriuretic Peptide Premarket Notifications; Final Guidance for Industry and FDA Reviewers.”

### D. Device Description and Intended Use
The Triage BNP test is intended for use with Beckman Coulter Immunoassay Systems (Access, Access 2, Synchron LXi 725 and UniCel Dxl 800) for the In Vitro quantitative measurement of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) in plasma specimens using EDTA as the anticoagulant.

The test also is used for the risk stratification of patients with acute coronary syndromes and for the risk stratification of patients with heart failure.
{1}------------------------------------------------
### E. Summary of Substantial Equivalence
Various peer-reviewed publications have described the utility of BNP measurements as an aid in the risk stratification of patients with heart failure. Higher BNP concentrations or the lack of a decrease in the BNP concentration from hospital admission to discharge indicate an increased risk of hospitalization or death in patients with heart failure.
The device and test method described in this Premarket Notification is identical in principle, reagents and procedure to its predecessor, the currently marketed Triage BNP Test for the Beckman Coulter Immunoassay (K033383).
Moreover, the Triage BNP Test (K051787) serves as the predicate method for the use of a circulating biomarker to provide prognostic information in patients with heart failure. The use of the Triage BNP Test for the Beckman Coulter Immunoassay Systems as an aid in the risk stratification of patients with heart failure is substantially equivalent to the predicate method.
#### F. Conclusion
In conclusion, the data presented in this Premarket Notification demonstrate the substantial equivalence of the Triage BNP Test for the Beckman Coulter Immunoassay Systems to currently marketed devices which have been reviewed and cleared through the 510(k) Premarket Notification process. Such data are a critical element in establishing the fundamental safety and effectiveness of the device and its appropriateness for commercial distribution.

## Dear Ms. Williamson
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls.
