The Randox Liquid Cardiac Controls Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 are liquid controls containing BNP, CK MB Mass, Digoxin, D-Dimer, Homocysteine, hsCRP, Myoglobin, NT-ProBNP, Troponin I, and Troponin T. They have been developed for use in the quality control of BNP, CK MB Mass, Digoxin, D-Dimer, Homocysteine, hsCRP, Myoglobin, NT-ProBNP, Troponin I, and Troponin T assays on various clinical chemistry and immunoassay systems. This in vitro diagnostic device is intended for prescription use only.
Device Story
Randox Liquid Cardiac Controls are multi-analyte quality control materials derived from human plasma, serum, and proteins. The product consists of three levels containing BNP, CK MB Mass, Digoxin, D-Dimer, Homocysteine, hsCRP, Myoglobin, NT-ProBNP, Troponin I, and Troponin T. Used in clinical laboratories to monitor the performance and accuracy of cardiac marker assays on various clinical chemistry and immunoassay systems. Preservative (sodium azide) is included. Human source material is tested and found nonreactive for HIV 1/2, HBsAg, and HCV. Healthcare providers use the controls to verify assay performance; results help ensure the reliability of patient diagnostic testing for cardiac conditions.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Stability testing protocols and acceptance criteria for shelf life (24 months) and open vial stability (30 days) at 2-8°C were reviewed and found acceptable. Expected values are determined via multi-site laboratory analysis.
Technological Characteristics
Liquid, assayed quality control material containing cardiac markers (BNP, CK MB Mass, Digoxin, D-Dimer, Homocysteine, hsCRP, Myoglobin, NT-ProBNP, Troponin I, Troponin T). Designed for use on clinical chemistry and immunoassay systems. No specific materials of construction, energy sources, or software algorithms described.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as quality control material for clinical chemistry and immunoassay systems to monitor the precision of assays for BNP, CK MB Mass, Digoxin, D-Dimer, Homocysteine, hsCRP, Myoglobin, NT-ProBNP, Troponin I, and Troponin T. Intended for prescription use in professional laboratory settings.
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.
