Device Facts

• Record ID: K040920
• Device Name: AMYLASE LIQUID REAGENT, MODEL A532-200
• Applicant: Teco Diagnostics
• Product Code: JFJ · Clinical Chemistry
• Decision Date: May 10, 2004
• Decision: SESE
• Submission Type: Special
• Regulation: 21 CFR 862.1070
• Device Class: Class 2

Intended Use

For the quantitative determination of Amylase in human serum and urine. Amylase measurements are used primarily for the diagnostics and treatment of pancreatitis.

Device Story

Device modification involves transition of reagent formulation from powder to liquid form. Reagents include buffer, sodium chloride, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, alpha-glucosidase, and preservatives. Modification assessed via risk analysis and design control verification/validation activities to ensure fundamental scientific technology remains unchanged from previously cleared device.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

Technological Characteristics

Reagent formulation modified from powder to liquid. Components include buffer, sodium chloride, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, alpha-glucosidase, and preservatives.

Indications for Use

Indicated for the quantitative determination of Amylase in human serum and urine for the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatitis.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An amylase test system is a device intended to measure the activity of the enzyme amylase in serum and urine. Amylase measurements are used primarily for the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas).

SPECIAL 510(k): Device Modification

ODE Review Memorandum (Decision Making Document is Attached)

To: THE FILE

RE: DOCUMENT NUMBER k 040920

This 510(k) submission contains information/data on modifications made to the SUBMITTER'S own Class II, Class III or Class I devices requiring 510(k). The following items are present and acceptable (delete/add items as necessary):

1. The name and 510(k) number of the SUBMITTER'S previously cleared device. (For a preamendments device, a statement to this effect has been provided.)
2. Submitter's statement that the INDICATION/INTENDED USE of the modified device as described in its labeling HAS NOT CHANGED along with the proposed labeling which includes instructions for use, package labeling, and, if available, advertisements or promotional materials (labeling changes are permitted as long as they do not affect the intended use).
3. A description of the device MODIFICATION(S), including clearly labeled diagrams, engineering drawings, photographs, user's and/or service manuals in sufficient detail to demonstrate that the FUNDAMENTAL SCIENTIFIC TECHNOLOGY of the modified device has not changed.

This change was for new reagent formulation from powder to liquid form.

4. Comparison Information (similarities and differences) to applicant's legally marketed predicate device including, labeling, intended use, physical characteristics, and reagent components, including buffer, sodium chloride, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, alpha-glucosidase, and preservatives.
5. A Design Control Activities Summary which includes:

a) Identification of Risk Analysis method(s) used to assess the impact of the modification on the device and its components, and the results of the analysis
b) Based on the Risk Analysis, an identification of the verification and/or validation activities required, including methods or tests used and acceptance criteria to be applied
c) A declaration of conformity with design controls. The declaration of conformity should include:

i) A statement signed by the individual responsible, that, as required by the risk analysis, all verification and validation activities were performed by the designated individual(s) and the results demonstrated that the predetermined acceptance criteria were met, and
ii) A statement signed by the individual responsible, that the manufacturing facility is in conformance with design control procedure requirements as specified in 21 CFR 820.30 and the records are available for review.

6. A Truthful and Accurate Statement, a 510(k) Summary or Statement and the Indications for Use Enclosure (and Class III Summary for Class III devices).

The labeling for this modified subject device has been reviewed to verify that the indication/intended use for the device is unaffected by the modification. In addition, the submitter's description of the particular modification(s) and the comparative information between the modified and unmodified devices demonstrate that the fundamental scientific technology has not changed. The submitter has provided the design control information as specified in The New 510(k) Paradigm and on this basis, I recommend the device be determined substantially equivalent to the previously cleared (or their preamendment) device.
