Device Class Class 1
Indications for Use
The cobas u 411 urine analyzer is a semi-automated, benchtop analyzer which is designed to read the Chemstrip 10 UA (Combur' Test M) test strips for urinalysis for the measurement of bilirubin, blood, glucose, ketone, leukocytes, nitrite, pH, protein, specific gravity, urobilinogen and color (if selected). These measurements are useful in the evaluation of renal, urinary and metabolic disorders. Tests performed using the cobas u411 are intended for prescription, in vitro diagnostic use only.
Device Story
The cobas u 411 is a semi-automated, benchtop urinalysis system operated by healthcare professionals in clinical settings. It processes Chemstrip 10 UA reagent strips after manual immersion in urine samples. The device utilizes reflectance photometry with LED light sources (620nm, 555nm, 470nm) and 11 wide-range photo sensors to measure color changes on the test pads. It includes an intrinsic color compensation feature using a non-impregnated area of the strip. The system provides semi-quantitative results for 10 analytes plus color, which are displayed or output via optional formats. Results assist clinicians in evaluating renal, urinary, and metabolic disorders. Data management includes result memory and USB-based storage.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. The device was validated through comparative performance testing against the predicate Chemstrip Urine Analyzer, confirming equivalent reflectance photometry measurements and analytical performance for all 10 urine analytes.
Technological Characteristics
Reflectance photometry; light source: LEDs (620nm, 555nm, 470nm); detector: 11 wide-range photo sensors. Bench-top form factor. Connectivity: USB for data storage, barcode scanner interface. Calibration: gray plastic calibration strip with known reflectance values. Software: embedded firmware for signal processing and result conversion.
Indications for Use
Indicated for prescription, in vitro diagnostic use in clinical settings to measure urine analytes (bilirubin, blood, glucose, ketone, leukocytes, nitrite, pH, protein, specific gravity, urobilinogen, and color) to aid in the evaluation of renal, urinary, and metabolic disorders.
Regulatory Classification
Identification An automated urinalysis system is a device intended to measure certain of the physical properties and chemical constituents of urine by procedures that duplicate manual urinalysis systems.

L. Test Principle:
Several light emitting diodes (LEDs) use a light pipe to transmit light of a defined wavelength onto the surface of all test pads. The light that hits the test pad is reflected with an intensity that is dependent upon the color of the test pads. A photodiode detector positioned directly above the test pad receives the reflected light. The photodiode detector transmits an analog electrical signal to the analog-to digital convertor, which changes the analog signal to a digital value. The computer then converts the digital value into the semiquantitative result.
M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
1. Analytical performance:
a. Precision/Reproducibility:
Repeatability (within run) precision of the cobas u 411 analyzer was evaluated at 3 clinical sites using two commercially available urine controls over various days. The controls, which were comprised of a normal and an elevated analyte sample, were tested in three individual runs. Each run was comprised of 21 replicates. The samples were split into seven aliquots with 3 measurements. In total, there were 48 runs performed and three analyzers were used in the testing.
Example: 3 runs x 21 replicates (7 aliquots/3 measurements per aliquot) x 3 analyzers= 189 replicates.

b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
Please see the method comparison section 2.a below and detection limit section 1.d. below.
c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
The sponsor recommends using commercially available control materials for use on the cobas u 411 urine analyzer.
Calibration verification is performed using a Calibration Strip which is included with the analyzer. This is a gray strip which checks the reflectance values for each test. The reflectance values are compared with the previous user calibration values and the values of the internal Calibration Strip. Recommendations for calibration verification are included in the operator's manual.
d. Detection limit:
The sensitivity of the Chemstrip 10UA Urine Test Strip on the cobas u411 was evaluated by spiking negative pooled human urine with the appropriate substance to obtain the desired concentrations. Multiple samples were tested for each concentration. The prepared samples were then assayed on the cobas u 411 analyzer. Sensitivity was defined as the cutoff in which 90% of the contrived pooled measurements were positive.

N. Instrument Name:
Cobas u411 Urinalysis Test System
O. System Descriptions:
1. Modes of Operation:
The Cobas Urinalysis Test system is an automated urine analyzer using reflectance photometry for the semi quantitative determination of Specific Gravity, pH, Leukocyte esterase, Nitrite, Protein, Glucose, Ketones, Urobilinogen, Bilirubin and Erythrocytes.
2. Software:
FDA has reviewed applicant’s Hazard Analysis and software development processes for this line of product types:
Yes ☐ X ☐ or No ☐
3. Specimen Identification:
Numerical specimen identification information can be entered manually via the touch screen keyboard on the analyzer. The analyzer is also available for use with a bar code scanner using the BC scanner interface located in the back of the instrument.
4. Specimen Sampling and Handling:
Cobas u 411 Urinalysis Test system can analyze multiple strips. The user dips the test strip into the urine sample and places it on a sample tray. The test strip is then drawn inside the analyzer to begin timing and analysis.

5. Calibration:
Calibration is based on the analysis of a calibration strip with known reflectance values. The calibration strip is initially provided with the device and may also be purchased separately. This internal calibration strip must be replaced at least once a year or in the event that the cobas u 411 analyzer cannot be calibrated. This must only be performed using the Control-Test M calibration strip manufactured by Roche Diagnostics. The calibration strip is made of gray plastic material of constant reflectance characteristics. Labeling recommends that the cobas u411 analyzer be calibrated once every four weeks.
6. Quality Control:
Quality Control is analyzed like the patient samples. The labeling recommends that a positive and a negative external control be assayed daily according to state, federal and local guidelines and 1) when starting a new lot of test strips 2) when starting a new container of test strips 3) when there are questionable results 4) every 30 days to check the storage conditions of the test strips 5) after using the calibration strip 6) after maintenance or service and 7) when changing operators.
P. Other Supportive Instrument Performance Characteristics Data Not Covered In The "Performance Characteristics" Section above:
Q. Proposed Labeling:
The labeling is sufficient and it satisfies the requirements of 21 CFR Part 809.10.
R. Conclusion:
The submitted information in this premarket notification is complete and supports a substantial equivalence decision.
