Device Story
Elecsys CK-MB CalCheck 5 is an assayed quality control material used to verify calibration and assay range for CK-MB reagent on Elecsys and cobas e immunoassay analyzers. Used by laboratory professionals in clinical settings to ensure analytical performance of immunoassay systems. Provides a reference point for verifying that the instrument's measurement range remains within established specifications, supporting accurate clinical diagnostic testing for cardiac markers.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Stability testing (real-time and accelerated) confirmed 24-month shelf life at 2-8°C and 4-hour stability post-reconstitution at 20-25°C. Value assignment performed using multiple analyzers (Elecsys 2010/cobas e411 and Modular Analytics E170/cobas e601) with duplicate testing; target values determined by median observed values.
Technological Characteristics
Lyophilized human serum matrix spiked with human CK-MB. Five-level concentration set (Level 1: ≤ 0.3 ng/mL; Level 2: 5 ng/mL; Level 3: 100 ng/mL; Level 4: 400 ng/mL; Level 5: 500 ng/mL). Standardized using internal master calibrators traceable to AACC human recombinant standardization material. Storage: 2-8°C unopened; 20-25°C for 4 hours reconstituted.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as an assayed control for calibration verification and assay range verification of the Elecsys CK-MB reagent on Elecsys and cobas e immunoassay analyzers. Prescription use only.
Regulatory Classification
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.

Traceability and value assignment
Elecsys CK-MB CalCheck 5 is standardized using internally produced master calibrators which are traceable to AACC human recombinant standardization material.
Each of the five CalCheck levels is value assigned using a minimum of three Elecsys 2010/cobas e411 analyzers and Modular Analytics E170/cobas e 601 analyzers. Each sample is tested in duplicate. The target value for each CalCheck is the median of the observed values.
The labeling states that laboratories should establish appropriate acceptance criteria when using this product for its intended use.
Stability
Real time and accelerated stability testing protocols and acceptance criteria were described and found to be adequate. CalCheck 5 is stable for 24 months when stored unopened at 2 – 8°C. Real time testing will continue to support stability for 36 months. The reconstituted vials are stable up to four hours at 20-25°C.
