Indications for Use

AVL OPTI-check assayed control is intended to be used to monitor the measurement of pH, PCO2, PO2, sodium, potassium, total hemoglobin content and oxygen saturation in the AVL OPTI Critical Care Analyzer, as well as other devices measuring the same parameters and ionized calcium and chloride.

Device Story

AVL OPTI-check is an aqueous liquid control solution used for daily quality assurance in clinical laboratories. It contains a stable suspension of polystyrene microbeads that mimic the optical properties of erythrocytes by reflecting and absorbing red and infrared light; this allows the device to simulate whole blood measurements for total hemoglobin (tHb) and oxygen saturation (SO2) on the AVL OPTI Critical Care Analyzer. The solution also contains clinically relevant concentrations of pH, PCO2, PO2, sodium, potassium, ionized calcium, and chloride. Laboratory personnel use the control to verify instrument performance before analyzing patient specimens or after obtaining suspicious results. By ensuring the analyzer is functioning correctly, the device helps clinicians maintain the accuracy of diagnostic data used for patient monitoring and therapeutic decision-making.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Precision was evaluated over 20 days (two runs/day, two replicates/run) on AVL OPTI Critical Care Analyzers. Clinical correlation studies compared the AVL OPTI Critical Care Analyzer to predicate devices using remnant patient whole blood and serum specimens. Results showed no significant difference (P < 0.05) for all analytes evaluated (pH, PCO2, PO2, Na, K, ctHb, SO2). Imprecision was within manufacturer-stated claims.

Technological Characteristics

Aqueous liquid control solution containing pH, PCO2, PO2, sodium, potassium, ionized calcium, chloride, and a stable suspension of polystyrene microbeads. The microbeads act as optical simulators for erythrocytes to enable tHb and SO2 measurement. Designed for use with the AVL OPTI Critical Care Analyzer and other conventional blood gas/electrolyte instrumentation.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use as an in vitro diagnostic quality control material to monitor the accuracy and precision of clinical analyzers measuring pH, PCO2, PO2, electrolytes (sodium, potassium, ionized calcium, chloride), total hemoglobin (tHb), and oxygen saturation (SO2) in patient samples.

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.

#### (3) Substantial Equivalence

A VL OPTI-check is substantially equivalent in function, safety and efficacy to a number of currently marketed devices known as 'Combi' or 'Multi-Analyte' control solutions, namely:

Multi-Function Blood Gas Control, Bionostics, Inc., K880447

Control for Blood Gases, Electrolytes and Glucose, Bionostics, Inc., K911755

#### Description of the new device (4)

OPTI-check is a specially formulated aqueous liquid material intended to for use to monitor all analytes measured by the OPTI. It contains a stable suspension of polystyrene microbeads which reflect and partially absorb red and infrared light similar to erythrocytes, allowing true simulation of the measurement of tHb and SO2 in exactly the same manner as these analytes are determined in whole blood by the AVL OPTI Critical Care Analyzer. The three control levels contain three different concentrations of microbeads to simulate low, medium, and high hematocrit blood samples. OPT-check provides a convenient method of performing daily QC checks for laboratories selecting to measure liquid QC material as a part of their quality assurance program.

While the product is optimized for performance on the AVL OPTI Critical Care Analyzer, it may be used to monitor the measurement of blood gas and electrolyte values in conventional instrumentation. OPTI-check contains clinically relevant quantities of pH, PCO2, PO2, sodium, potassium, ionized calcium and chloride, and suitable concentrations of microbeads to simulate clinically relevant values of tHb and oxygen saturation.

#### Intended use of the device (ર)

AVL OPTI-check assayed control is intended to be used to monitor the measurement of pH, PCO2, PO2, sodium, potassium, total hemoglobin content and oxygen saturation in the AVL OPTI Critical Care Analyzer, as well as other devices measuring the same parameters and ionized calcium and chloride.

#### Technological characteristics of the device. (6)

AVL OPTI-check is technologically equivalent to currently marketed products to which substantial equivalence is claimed. It contains a low concentration, stable suspension of polystyrene microbeads which reflect and partially absorb red and infrared light similar to erythrocytes, allowing true simulation of the measurement of tHb and SO2 in exactly the same manner as these analytes are determined in whole blood by the AVL OPTI Critical Care Analyzer.

### (b) (1) Summary of non-clinical tests submitted with the premarket notification for the device.

Typical Within-Run (Swr), Between-Day (Sdd) and Total (ST) precision were determined from two runs per day with 2 replicates per run for 20 days on two AVL OPTI Critical Care Analyzers.

### (b) (2) Summary of clinical tests submitted with the premarket notification for the device.

Typical Within-Run (Swr), Between-Dav (Sdd) and Total (ST) precision were determined from two runs per day with 2 replicates per run for 20 days on a single AVL OPTI Critical Care Analyzer. Additionally, clinical testing was conducted to demonstrate the correlation of AVL OPTI Critical Care Analyzer to predicate devices in a clinical setting, operated by personnel trained to perform and report these analyses. Specimens analyzed in these tests were remnant from patient specimens of both whole blood and serum collected for routing analysis on existing instrumentation.

### (b) (3) Conclusions drawn from the clinical and non-clinical trials.

All evaluation of measurement imprecision was within manufacturer's stated claims and comparison of measurement between the OPTI Critical Care Analyzer and other instrumentation showed no significant difference (P < 0.05) for all analytes evaluated. Acceptable performance on precision evaluation conducted concurrently to acceptable correlation to predicate devices in measurement of pH, PCO2, PO2, Na, K, ctHb and SO2 supports the use of AVL OPTI-check to monitor the measurement of these analytes, and demonstrates it substantially equivalent to other products with similar intended uses.

### AVL OPTI-check Control Solution Device Name:

AVL OPTI-check assayed control is intended to be used to monitor the measurement of pH, PCO2, PO2, sodium, potassium, total hemoglobin content and oxygen saturation in the AVL OPTI Critical Care Analyzer, as well as other devices measuring the same parameters and ionized calcium and chloride.

For In Vitro Diagnostic Use

### Indications for Use

The determination of acid-base status, and concentration of carbon dioxide, oxygen, electrolytes, total hemoglobin and oxygen saturation is an important adjunct to patient monitoring for a variety of clinical conditions described in the labeling for those devices used for these purposes. Since therapeutic regimes are often determined by the results obtained in patient samples, the instruments used for these analyses must meet stringent requirements for accuracy and precision of measurement. It should be the goal of the quality control program in institutions performing these analyses to determine the instrumentation is working properly before the analysis and report of patient specimens, or after any suspicious results have been obtained.
