EasyStat pH, PCO₂, PO₂, Hct, Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺/Cl⁻ Analyzer
I. Device Description:
The EasyStat (ES) pH, PCO₂, PO₂, Htc, Na, K, Ca/Cl Blood Gas Analyzer is an analyzer that has all the features of the Medica’s EasyStat (ES) pH, PCO₂, PO₂, Htc, Na, K, Ca analyzer, but the Ca ISE sensor may be replaced by a Cl sensor by either a distributor or an end-user. Depending on the operation mode chosen, the EasyStat Ca/Cl will analyze a whole-blood patient sample or a QC material for pH, PCO₂, PO₂, Htc, Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺ or pH, PCO₂, PO₂, Htc, Na⁺, K⁺, Cl⁻.
Both EasyStat analyzers (Ca²⁺ and Cl⁻ versions) utilize the same three aqueous calibrants enclosed in a sealed pack (Reagent Module) along with a waste container. These solutions are used in the calibration and sample analysis modes. The analyzer establishes the mathematical slope of the sensors by means of a two point calibration, and then determines the values of an unknown sample by direct comparison with one of the calibrants. One of the predicate devices for the Medica EasyStat chloride

analyzer is its predecessor the Medica EasyStat ionized calcium analyzer (K021515). The calibrants for both analyzers have identical formulations. In addition, the packaging of the calibrants is identical.

L. Test Principle:
The EasyStat Ca/Cl in this submission utilizes the same basic technologies and software architecture as Medica's EasyElectroLytes Na, K, Cl (for chloride) and EasyStat pH, PCO2, PO2, Htc, Na, K, Ca line of analyzers. The EasyStat analyzer in this submission measures pH, PCO2, PO2, $\mathrm{Na^{+}}$ , $\mathrm{K^{+}}$ , and $\mathrm{Ca^{++}}$ or $\mathrm{Cl^-}$ using ion selective electrode (ISE) technology that measures changes in voltage (a potentiometric measurement). The PO2 electrode measures a change in current (an amperometric measurement). These changes are then compared with those occurring with on-board calibration standards to produce final results. Hct is measured using electrical conductivity, which is a technique used in other currently marketed devices. The hematocrit sensor is also calibrated with standard solutions. The analyzer then measures the impedance of the sample to obtain the Hct value. Next, the Hct value is corrected for the concentration of the sodium ions.

M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
Because the modules used were all previously cleared, the sponsor demonstrated that the new configurations did not change performance through new precision and method comparison studies. All other performance parameters remain as cleared previously in k021515 and k000926.
1. Analytical performance:
a. Precision/Reproducibility:
The precision of the EasyStat Ca/Cl was evaluated following the guidelines of CLSI EP-5. This section provides data on the precision of the EasyStat Ca/Cl operating in the $\mathrm{Ca}^{++}$ and $\mathrm{Cl^-}$ modes for all sensors using both the syringe and capillary sampling modes.
This study incorporated the use of three EasyStat Ca/Cl analyzers operating in the Cl mode (Chloride sensor and software) and three EasyStat Ca/Cl analyzers operating in the $\mathrm{Ca}^{++}$ mode (Calcium sensor and software). Three levels of ampuled aqueous based QC material were analyzed daily (AM & PM) for twenty days according to CLSI EP-5. Since the Hematocrit (Htc) QC material is available in two levels only, there are no precision data for level 3.
The data summaries below are from one analyzer in both the Cl mode and the $\mathrm{Ca}^{++}$ mode. The other two analyzers had comparable precision in both modes.

c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
There were no changes to the existing calibrator cleared under k021515. The Reagent Module value assignment method for pH, PCO2, PO2, Na, K, and Ca remains the same. The chloride (Cl-) value assignment for the EasyStat Calcium/ Chloride calibrants has been established via titration with a primary Silver Nitrate (AgNO3) solution. This standard volumetric method used a potentiometric end-point detection and it was applied to the Master Secondary Primary (MSP) calibrant A and calibrant C. Stability is based on accelerated shelf life study, and supported by a real time study.
Controls were cleared under k021515, k955630 and k880447.
