Indications for Use
ZYMUTEST HIA IgG and IgGAM kits are designed as a solid phase enzyme- linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). These products are intended to be used as an in vitro diagnostics kit by Hematology, coagulation or other pathology laboratories to assist in screening patients samples for the presence of heparin- associated antibodies commonly found in patients with heparin induced thrombocytopenia or thrombosis (HIT).
Device Story
ZYMUTEST HIA is a solid-phase ELISA kit for detecting anti-heparin/Platelet Factor 4 (PF4) antibodies in human citrated plasma or serum. Used in clinical laboratories by technicians or pathologists to assist in diagnosing heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) or thrombosis. The assay utilizes a sandwich ELISA technique; patient samples are incubated in wells coated with PF4/heparin complexes; bound antibodies are detected via enzyme-linked secondary antibodies. Results are interpreted by laboratory personnel to aid clinical decision-making regarding heparin therapy management. Benefits include identifying patients at risk for or experiencing HIT, allowing for timely clinical intervention.
Clinical Evidence
Performance evaluated via method comparison studies against predicate devices (Asserachrom, GTI PF4 Enhanced) and SRA. Studies involved 174 to 345 samples. ZYMUTEST IgGAM vs. Asserachrom showed 76% agreement (64% co-positivity, 81% co-negativity). ZYMUTEST IgGAM vs. GTI PF4 Enhanced showed 74% agreement (58% co-positivity, 90% co-negativity). ZYMUTEST IgG vs. Asserachrom showed 76% agreement (44% co-positivity, 90% co-negativity). ZYMUTEST IgG vs. SRA showed 75.3% matching. Precision testing (intra/inter-assay) showed CVs ranging from 3.07% to 7.50%.
Technological Characteristics
Solid-phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using a sandwich technique. Analyte: anti-heparin/PF4 antibodies. Sample type: citrated human plasma or serum. Connectivity: None (manual/standalone laboratory assay). Sterilization: Not applicable (in vitro diagnostic reagent).
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in hematology, coagulation, or pathology laboratories to screen patient samples for heparin-associated antibodies in patients suspected of having heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) or thrombosis.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A platelet factor 4 radioimmunoassay is a device used to measure the level of platelet factor 4, a protein released during platelet activation by radioimmunoassay. This device measures platelet activiation, which may indicate a coagulation disorder, such as myocardial infarction or coronary artery disease.
