Intended Use
The Distinct® Digital Pregnancy Test is an over-the-counter chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine. It is intended for use as an aid for the early detection of pregnancy. This test can help determine if you are pregnant as early as 6 days before the day of the missed period (5 days before the day of your expected period).
Device Story
Distinct® Digital Pregnancy Test; lateral flow immunoassay for qualitative hCG detection in urine. Device consists of plastic-housed test stick with immunochromatographic strip, electronic/optical components, and microprogrammed control unit. User applies urine via midstream or dip method; optical system uses two red LEDs and photo sensor to detect color change in test line zone. Device processes signal via internal algorithms to display 'PREGNANT', 'NOT PREGNANT', or '?' (error) on LCD. Used OTC by lay users; results read after 3 minutes. Provides early pregnancy detection; aids clinical decision-making regarding pregnancy status.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided in the document; substantial equivalence is based on technological characteristics and performance testing.
Technological Characteristics
Lateral flow immunochromatographic assay; monoclonal antibodies; optical detection system with two red LEDs and photo sensor. Microprogrammed control unit for digital display. Sensitivity: 10 mIU/mL. Calibrated to WHO 5th International Standard (NIBSC 07/364). Urine specimen; midstream or dip sampling. Standalone device; LCD output.
Indications for Use
Indicated for qualitative detection of hCG in urine to aid early pregnancy detection in women aged 18-45. Can be used as early as 6 days before missed period.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test system is a device intended for the early detection of pregnancy is intended to measure HCG, a placental hormone, in plasma or urine. A human chorionic goadotropin (HCG) test system is a device intended for any uses other than early detection of pregnancy (such as an aid in the diagnosis, prognosis, and management of treatment of persons with certain tumors or carcinomas) is intended to measure HCG, a placental hormone, in plasma or urine.
