## Indications for Use

The Boehringer Mannheim Elecsys® CalCheck™ Troponin T is used to verify the calibration assignment for the Boehringer Mannheim Elecsys Troponin T assay.

## Device Story

Elecsys CalCheck Troponin T is a calibration verification material used in clinical laboratory settings to ensure accuracy of Elecsys Troponin T assays. The device consists of three levels of solutions (low, mid, high) containing bovine serum albumin, human recombinant Troponin T, stabilizers, and preservatives. The low level is near the assay's lower detection limit; the middle level is at the clinically critical point; the high level is near the upper limit of the measuring range. Laboratory technicians use these solutions to verify that the analyzer's calibration remains within specified parameters. This verification process helps ensure the reliability of Troponin T measurements, which are critical for clinical decision-making regarding cardiac events.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. The device was evaluated for value assignment and stability.

## Technological Characteristics

Calibration verification material composed of bovine serum albumin, human recombinant Troponin T, stabilizers, and preservatives. Formulated into three concentration levels (low, mid, high). Designed for use with Elecsys immunoassay analyzers.

## Regulatory Identification

A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) for clinical chemistry is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to estimate test precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations that may arise from reagent or analytical instrument variation. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys. This generic type of device includes controls (assayed and unassayed) for blood gases, electrolytes, enzymes, multianalytes (all kinds), single (specified) analytes, or urinalysis controls.

Re: K984372 Elecsys CalCheck Troponin T Trade Name: Regulatory Class: I Product Code: JJY Dated: December 3, 1998 Received: December 7, 1998

Dear Ms. Hamill:

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 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). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The qeneral controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listinq 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 Requlations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Requlation (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 regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements 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 regulations.

{3}------------------------------------------------

Paqe 2

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling requlation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4588. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification"(21 CFR 807.97). Other qeneral information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597, or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html".
