## Indications for Use

IL Test™ Plasmin Inhibitor is an in vitro diagnostic test for the quantitative determination of plasmin inhibitor in human citrated plasma based on a synthetic chromogenic substrate and plasma inactivation. Plasmin inhibitor, the major fast acting inhibitor of the fibrinolytic system, also known as a -- antiplasmin is an important regulator of the fibrinolytic system. Congenital deficiencies are associated with haemorragic problems. Decreased levels of plasmin inhibitor are observed in liver diseases and DIC. Increased levels have been reported during post-operative episodes.

## Device Story

IL Test™ Plasmin Inhibitor is an in vitro diagnostic reagent kit for quantitative measurement of plasmin inhibitor (α2-antiplasmin) in human citrated plasma. The device utilizes a synthetic chromogenic substrate and plasma inactivation principle to measure inhibitor activity. It is intended for use in clinical laboratory settings by trained laboratory personnel. The assay is performed on automated coagulation analyzers (e.g., ACL 300, ACL Futura). The output is a quantitative value representing plasmin inhibitor activity, which assists clinicians in evaluating fibrinolytic system status, diagnosing congenital deficiencies, or monitoring conditions like liver disease, DIC, and post-operative states. The test provides objective data to support clinical decision-making regarding patient coagulation and fibrinolytic health.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Method comparison studies performed on 46 and 51 plasma samples comparing the subject device to the predicate on ACL 300 and ACL Futura analyzers, respectively. Correlation coefficients (r) were 0.987 and 0.996. Within-run precision (CV) ranged from 1.3% to 4.4% across two levels of plasma activity.

## Technological Characteristics

In vitro diagnostic reagent kit; utilizes synthetic chromogenic substrate and plasma inactivation principle; designed for use on automated coagulation analyzers (ACL 300, ACL Futura).

## Predicate Devices

- IL Test™ α2-Antiplasmin ([K920012](/device/K920012.md)/B)

#### Summary Prepared:

May 13, 1998

#### Name of the device:

IL Test™ Plasmin Inhibitor

#### Classification name(s):

Class II 864.7290 Factor Deficiency Test Test, Qualitative and Quantitative Factor Deficient 81GGP

#### Identification of predicate device(s):

IL Test™ α2-Antiplasmin K920012/B

#### Description of the device/intended use(s):

IL Test™ Plasmin Inhibitor is an in vitro diagnostic test for the quantitative determination of plasmin inhibitor in human citrated plasma based on a synthetic chromogenic substrate and plasma inactivation. Plasmin inhibitor, the major fast acting inhibitor of the fibrinolytic system, also known as a -- antiplasmin is an important regulator of the fibrinolytic system. Congenital deficiencies are associated with haemorragic problems. Decreased levels of plasmin inhibitor are observed in liver diseases and DIC. Increased levels have been reported during post-operative episodes.

### Statement of How the Technological Characteristics of the Device Compare to the Predicate device:

The new IL Test™ Plasmin Inhibitor uses the same test principle as the predicate IL Test™ o2-Antiplasmin and is substantially equivalent in performance, intended use and safety and effectiveness.

#### Summary of Performance Data:

In method comparison studies evaluating normal and abnormal plasma samples, the correlation (r) of the new IL Test™ Plasmin Inhibitor to the predicate IL Test™ x2-Antiplasmin on the ACL 300 was 0.987 (n=46) and on the ACL Futura was 0.996 (n = 51).

On the ACL 300, within run precision assessed over multiple runs using 2 levels of plasma gave a CV of 2.7% (at a mean of 46.6% activity) and 1.3% (at a mean of 95.4% activity). On the ACL Futura, within run precision assessed over multiple runs using 2 levels of plasma gave a CV of 4.4% (at a mean of 51.9% activity) and 2.7% (at a mean of 96.8% activity).

Dear Ms. Marble:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions aqainst misbranding and adulteration.
