The Von Willebrand Reagent is intended for the determination of the ristocetin cofactor activity in human plasma.
Device Story
Von Willebrand Reagent consists of lyophilized platelets and ristocetin; used for in vitro diagnostic determination of ristocetin cofactor activity in human plasma. Device functions as a reagent kit for laboratory testing; provides quantitative measurement of cofactor activity. Used in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Results assist clinicians in diagnosing Von Willebrand's disease and other hemorrhagic diatheses, and in pre-operative screening. Benefits include standardized assessment of platelet-related clotting function.
Clinical Evidence
Comparative analysis performed on 70 normal and pathological human plasma samples against the predicate device. Results showed a correlation coefficient of 0.94, slope of 0.97, and y-intercept of -4.4. Precision studies conducted per NCCLS EP5 guidelines; within-run precision ranged from 6.1% to 16.2%, and total precision ranged from 7.6% to 16.9%.
Technological Characteristics
In vitro diagnostic reagent kit containing lyophilized platelets and ristocetin. Operates via ristocetin cofactor activity measurement. Intended for professional use in clinical laboratories.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the determination of ristocetin cofactor activity in human plasma to aid in the diagnosis of Von Willebrand's disease, diagnosis of diseases characterized by changes in ristocetin cofactor, and pre-operative screening of haemorrhagic diatheses.

Dear Mr. Rogers:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. ਸ substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP requlation may result in requlatory In addition, FDA may publish further announcements action. concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal Laws or Requlations.
