Eurotrol Hct Control is an assayed hematocrit reference material, to verify the precision and accuracy of the epoc® Blood Analysis System for the measurement of hematocrit. Eurotrol Hct Control is for in vitro diagnostic use only. epoc® Hematocrit Verification Fluids is an assayed hematocrit reference material, to verify the precision and accuracy of the epoc® Blood Analysis System for the measurement of hematocrit. epoc® Hematocrit Verification Fluids is for in vitro diagnostic use only.
Device Story
Eurotrol Hct Control and epoc® Hematocrit Verification Fluids are electrolyte solutions used as quality control materials for the epoc® Blood Analysis System. These fluids simulate clinically relevant hematocrit concentrations via conductivity measurements. The device is used by healthcare professionals to verify the precision and accuracy of the epoc® system's hematocrit channel. The fluids are provided in 2.5 mL glass ampules at multiple concentration levels. The healthcare provider introduces the fluid into the epoc® system; the system measures conductivity and converts it to a hematocrit percentage. This verification process ensures the reliability of patient hematocrit results, supporting clinical decision-making regarding patient blood status.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Precision/reproducibility studies were conducted across multiple sites and epoc® systems using 3 lots of control material over 20 days. Total variance (CV%) ranged from 1.89% to 4.95% across five levels, meeting the acceptance criterion of ≤9.0% CV. Stability was validated for 3 months (closed-vial) and 15 minutes (open-ampule) using measurand drift analysis.
Technological Characteristics
Electrolyte solutions in a physiologically buffered matrix; no red cells or biological materials. Conductivity-based sensing principle. Dimensions: 2.5 mL glass ampules. Storage: 15-30°C. Connectivity: None (manual sample introduction). Sterilization: Not specified. Software: None (device is a chemical reference material).
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as an assayed hematocrit reference material to verify the precision and accuracy of the epoc® Blood Analysis System for the measurement of hematocrit in a clinical setting. For prescription use only.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A hematology quality control mixture is a device used to ascertain the accuracy and precision of manual, semiautomated, and automated determinations of cell parameters such as white cell count (WBC), red cell count (RBC), platelet count (PLT), hemoglobin, hematocrit (HCT), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC).
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). Except when intended for use in blood components, the device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 864.9.
