Intended Use

The AggreGuide A-100 Aspirin assay is a qualitative system to aid in the detection of platelet dysfunction due to aspirin ingestion by those 18 years of age or older in 3.2% citrated venous whole blood. For professional use. This test is not for use in patients with underlying congenital platelet abnormalities or in patients receiving non-aspirin anti-platelet agents. The test results should be interpreted in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory data available to the clinician.

Device Story

AggreGuide A-100 system comprises stand-alone instrument and single-use cartridge containing freeze-dried arachidonic acid. User adds citrated venous whole blood to cartridge; instrument measures platelet aggregation via laser light scattering. Output reported as Platelet Activity Index (PAI); PAI < 4 indicates platelet dysfunction. Used in professional clinical settings. Healthcare providers interpret PAI alongside other clinical data to assess aspirin-induced platelet dysfunction. Benefits include rapid assessment of aspirin effect on platelet function.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical study of 169 healthy subjects. 138 subjects tested 2-30 hours after 325 mg aspirin dose. Sensitivity for detecting aspirin-induced platelet dysfunction was 83% (95% CI: 76%-89%). Specificity (pre-aspirin) was 90% (95% CI: 85%-94%). False positive rate 10%; false negative rate 17%.

Technological Characteristics

Laser light scattering system; disposable single-use cartridges with freeze-dried arachidonic acid. Measures Platelet Activity Index (PAI) based on aggregate count. Electrical safety and electromagnetic interference testing performed. Software validated against standards.

Indications for Use

Indicated for qualitative detection of platelet dysfunction due to aspirin ingestion in adults (≥18 years) using 3.2% citrated venous whole blood. Contraindicated for patients with congenital platelet abnormalities, non-aspirin induced acquired platelet abnormalities, or those receiving non-aspirin antiplatelet agents.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An automated platelet aggregation system is a device used to determine changes in platelet shape and platelet aggregation following the addition of an aggregating reagent to a platelet-rich plasma.

- 3. Predicate Devices:
The predicate is the Accumetrics VerifyNow-Aspirin Assay [K042423].

- 4. Description of Device:
The AggreGuide A-100 is a laser light scattering system that detects the level of platelet aggregation induced by arachidonic acid agonist in whole blood in motion. The system consists of an instrument and a disposable assay cartridge with pre-loaded freeze dried agonist. A whole blood sample is Page 1 of 4

{1}------------------------------------------------

added to a disposable cartridge that is preloaded with freeze dried arachidonic acid agonist (AA) in a reaction chamber for an individual test. The amount of platelet aggregation is measured by detecting the laser light scattering caused by platelet aggregates. Aspirin is known to inhibit the level of platelet aggregation, or activity, when blood is mixed with arachidonic acid.

- 5. Intended Use Statement:
The AggreGuide A-100 AA Assay is a qualitative system to aid in the detection of platelet dysfunction due to aspirin ingestion by those 18 years of age or older in 3.2% citrated venous whole blood using the AggreGuide A-100 instrument. For professional use. This test is not for use in patients with underlying congenital platelet abnormalities, patients with non-aspirin induced acquired platelet abnormalities or in patients receiving non-aspirin antiplatelet agents. The test results should be interpreted in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory data available to the clinician.

- 6. Summary of the technological characteristics of the device compared to predicate device:
The AgareGuide A-100 and Accumetrics VerifyNow® agaregometers both measure platelet aggregation in response to arachidonic acid (AA). In the presence of AA, platelets may be activated and aggregate. These aggregates occur when activated platelets in motion come into contact with other activated platelets. In both the AggreGuide A-100 and the VerifyNow® the AA is freeze dried and pre-loaded into disposable, single use cartridges. The AgareGuide detects the aggreaates in whole blood as they pass by the optical window by light scattering. The VerifyNow® detects platelet aggregation at its optical window by measuring light transmittance. With the AggreGuide, the more active the platelets, the more aggregates are formed and the higher the Platelet Activity Index (PAI). With the VerifyNow®, the more active the platelets, the more light transmittance and the higher the Aspirin Reactive Units (ARU). Conversely, if the platelets are inhibited by aspirin, they are not activated by AA to form aggregates. Therefore, few, if any, aggregates form and the AggreGuide shows a low PAI, and, similarly, the VerifyNow® shows a low ARU. The AggreGuide's PAI, like the

{2}------------------------------------------------

VerifyNow's® ARU is a function of the number of aggregates that form in the blood.

- 7. Performance Testing:
Non-clinical testing: Non-clinical testing was carried out on the AggreGuide A-100 instrument for electrical safety and electromagnetic interference, as well as software validation against multiple standards. Non-clinical studies were also carried out to assess simple and complex precision, shelf life of the AA reagent, interfering substances, limit of blank (LOB), inter-instrument variability, and lot-to-lot variability. These studies showed that the AggreGuide A-100 System raised no safety concerns when used for the Intended Use.

Clinical testing: One hundred sixty nine (n=169) healthy subjects were screened for study of the sensitivity of the AggreGuide A-100 in identifying platelet dysfunction due to aspirin ingestion. One hundred thirty eight (n=138) subjects were given an aspirin dose of 325 mg (1 adult non-coated fablet) and tested with the AggreGuide for aspirin induced platelet dysfunction within 2 -30 hours. The results shown in the tables below:

| Site | Sensitivity | CI (95%) |
|-----------|---------------|-----------|
| All Sites | 115/138 (83%) | 76% - 89% |

| Aspirin 325 mg Absent | | Total |
