Intended Use

An indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) for the detection of and semi-quantitation of endomysial antibodies (EMA) in human serum to aid in the diagnosis of Celiac Disease (CD) and Dermatitis Herpetiformis (DH) in combination with other clinical and other laboratory findings.

Device Story

Indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA) for detection/semi-quantitation of endomysial antibodies (EMA) in human serum; aids diagnosis of Celiac Disease and Dermatitis Herpetiformis. Performed in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Input: human serum sample; substrate (monkey esophagus tissue). Process: serum incubated on substrate; EMA binds to endomysium; fluorescein-labeled anti-human IgG conjugate added; visualization via fluorescence microscopy. Output: qualitative/semi-quantitative presence of antibodies. Clinical utility: supports diagnosis when combined with other clinical/laboratory findings.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided in the document; substantial equivalence established via bench testing and comparison to predicate devices.

Technological Characteristics

Indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFA). Utilizes monkey esophagus tissue as substrate. Detection via fluorescein-labeled anti-human IgG conjugate. Manual visualization via fluorescence microscopy. In vitro diagnostic test system.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients suspected of having celiac disease or dermatitis herpetiformis to aid in diagnosis via detection of IgA or IgG endomysial antibodies in human serum.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A multiple autoantibodies immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the autoantibodies (antibodies produced against the body's own tissues) in serum and other body fluids. Measurement of multiple autoantibodies aids in the diagnosis of autoimmune disorders (disease produced when the body's own tissues are injured by autoantibodies).
