Indications for Use
The Randox CSF Controls Levels 2 and Level 3 are intended for in vitro diagnostic use as assayed quality control material to monitor the precision of laboratory testing procedures for Clinical Chemistry systems. This device is intended for prescription use only.
Device Story
Randox CSF Controls Levels 2 and 3 are buffered aqueous solutions containing biological materials, supplied as lyophilized powder. Used in clinical laboratories to monitor the precision of diagnostic methods for CSF analysis on clinical chemistry systems. The controls provide target values and ranges for analytes including chloride, glucose, IgG, lactic acid, sodium, total protein, and electrophoresis protein fractions (albumin, globulins). Laboratory personnel reconstitute the material and run it alongside patient samples; the healthcare provider compares the measured control values against the provided target ranges to verify the accuracy and precision of the testing system. This ensures the reliability of patient CSF test results.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Stability studies confirmed 14-day open-vial stability (reconstituted at 2-8°C) and 37-month shelf life (real-time testing). Value assignment was performed using electrophoresis for protein fractions and comparative analysis against master lots for other analytes, with precision (CV) and recovery error metrics reported for each analyte.
Technological Characteristics
Buffered aqueous solution with biological materials (human serum-derived proteins, synthetic chemicals). Supplied as lyophilized powder in 3ml vials. Analyte traceability to commercial sources. Stability: 14 days reconstituted at 2-8°C; 37 months shelf life at 2-8°C. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for in vitro diagnostic use as assayed quality control material to monitor the precision of diagnostic methods using CSF as a sample on clinical chemistry systems. Intended for 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.
