## Indications for Use

The Cardiac Troponin I Calibrator (cTnI CalPak) is an in vitro diagnostic product intended to be used for calibration of the cardiac troponin I method on the Stratus® CS analyzer. This calibrator is a device intended to establish a point of reference that is used in the determination of troponin I values.

## Device Story

Stratus® CS Troponin I Calibrator (cTnI CalPak) is a single-use plastic cartridge containing native human troponin complex in a normal human serum matrix. Used in clinical laboratory settings to calibrate the cardiac troponin I assay on the Stratus® CS analyzer. The calibrator provides a known reference point (approx. 40 ng/mL) to ensure accurate quantification of troponin I levels in patient samples. Healthcare professionals use the resulting calibration to validate the analyzer's performance, enabling reliable diagnostic testing for cardiac conditions.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Single-use plastic cartridge containing native human troponin complex in a normal human serum matrix. Target concentration 40 ng/mL. Designed for use with the Stratus® CS analyzer. No electronic or software components.

## Regulatory Identification

A calibrator is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to establish points of reference that are used in the determination of values in the measurement of substances in human specimens. (See also § 862.2 in this part.)

## Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.

Comments On Substantial Equivalence: The Stratus® CS cTnI CalPak (modified) is equivalent to the Stratus® CS TROP CalPak (K983722) currently marketed. The modified Stratus® CS cTnI CalPak has uses with a normal human serum base versus the buffered bovine protein matrix and associated stabilizers used in the currently marketed product. Both products are intended to be used as calibrators for the Stratus® CS Cardiac Troponin I method.

Conclusion: The modified Stratus® CS cTnI CalPak is substantially equivalent to the Stratus® CS TROP CalPak currently marketed by Dade Behring based on the comparison summarized above.
