## Indications for Use

The Elecsys® Cortisol CalCheck is intended for use in periodic verification of the calibration of the Elecsys® Cortisol assay.

## Device Story

Elecsys® Cortisol CalCheck is a set of three lyophilized calibration verification solutions (low, mid, high) with defined cortisol concentrations. Used in clinical laboratories to verify the calibration of the Elecsys® Cortisol assay on Elecsys® Immunoassay Analyzers. The low solution is near the assay detection limit; the middle solution is near the lower measuring range; the high solution is near the upper measuring range. Laboratory personnel use these solutions to ensure assay accuracy and performance over the analytical range.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Evaluation focused on value assignment and stability of the calibration verification material.

## Technological Characteristics

Lyophilized product; human serum base; synthetic cortisol; preservative. Three-level concentration set (low, mid, high). Designed for use with Elecsys Immunoassay Analyzers.

## 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.

## Predicate Devices

- Elecsys CalCheck TSH

Trade/Device Name: Elecsys Cortisol CalCheck Regulation Number: 21 CFR 862.1660 Regulation Name: Quality control material (assayed and unassayed) Regulatory Class: Class I, Reserved Product Code: JJX Dated: February 18, 2000 Received: February 22, 2000

Dear Ms. Taylor:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of March 21, 2000.

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act 

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

or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809), please contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 796-7100 or at its Internet address
