Device Class
Class 2
Intended Use
The AggreGuide device is intended for patients for whom detecting platelet dysfunction in response to arachidonic acid may be desirable, such as those who are on or are candidates for antiplatelet therapy.
Device Story
AggreGuide A-100 is an instrument for analyzing platelet-aggregation-induced light scattering. Device uses laser diode to generate light; light interacts with platelet samples; scattering signals are measured to assess aggregation. Modifications include replacement of laser diode with QSI QL78165A-L; updated Quality Control (QC2) cartridge using fixed diffuser instead of rotating groove; software revision (v5.10) to support QC2; shelf-life extension for test cartridges to 19 months. QC2 testing uses steady light for optics verification and oscillating light for amplifier verification. Device operates in clinical settings; provides pass/fail results for QC and platelet aggregation data for clinical decision-making.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Verification and validation activities included laser diode performance testing, QC2 implementation verification, software validation, and stability testing (isochronous paradigm) to support 18-month shelf life.
Technological Characteristics
Laser light scattering system. Components: instrument and disposable cartridges. Laser diode: QSI QL7816SA-L. Agonist: 1 mM Arachidonic Acid. Sample: 164 μL 3.2% citrated whole blood. Connectivity: Factory calibrated. Software: Version 5.10. Risk management: ISO 14971:2007.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use with the AggreGuide A-100 Instrument and AggreGuide A-100 AA assay for the analysis of platelet-aggregation-induced light scattering.
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 Device
The predicate device(s) used for the determination of substantial equivalence are the previously-cleared AggreGuide A-100 AA assay and AggreGuide A-100 Instrument, 510(k) document number K122162.
## 4. Device Description
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 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. Indications for Use
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 anti-platelet agents.

## 7. Summary of Performance Data
The risk analysis method used to assess the impact of the modifications was ISO 14971:2007, "Medical devices -- Application of risk management to medical devices".
Additional modification-specific criteria were applied to each modification as necessary and as noted in the body of the 510(k).
The results of the laser diode part replacement verification and validation activities demonstrated acceptable performance.
The results of the QC2 implementation process and verification and validation activities demonstrated acceptable performance.
The results of software and design verification and validation activities demonstrated acceptable performance.
The results from stability testing using an isochronous testing paradigm supported the shelf-life extension to 18 months based on acceptance criteria of ±1 PAI unit.
The results of User's Manual revision activities showed acceptable validation and verification results.
## 8. Conclusions
The modified AggreGuide A-100 AA assay and AggreGuide A-100 Instrument have the following similarities to those which previously received 510(k) clearance:
- have the same indicated use,
- use the same operating principle,
- . incorporate the same basic design,
- . incorporate the same reagents, and
- . are packaged using the same materials and processes.
The modifications did not require collection of clinical performance data. In addition, the results of design verification and validation tests do not raise new issues of safety and effectiveness.
In summary, the AggreGuide A-100 AA assay and AggreGuide A-100 Instrument described in this submission are, in our opinion, substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
