## Indications for Use

Indicated use - Factor deficient plasma, Factor - VII is a human plasma immunodepleted of the specific factor and intended for use in the quantitative determination of the specific factor levels in patients suspected of congenital or acquired deficiency of this specific coagulation protein and is performed by clotting assay.

## Device Story

Factor deficient coagulation plasma - VII is human plasma immunodepleted of Factor VII; used in clinical laboratories for in vitro diagnostic testing. Device functions as a reagent in clotting assays to quantify Factor VII levels in patient plasma samples. Clinicians use results to diagnose or monitor congenital or acquired coagulation protein deficiencies. Product is provided in frozen or lyophilized form; compatible with various coagulation instruments and reagents per manufacturer instructions.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance verified by comparing assay results to known samples. Device confirmed to have <1% Factor VII activity and tested negative for HIV 1/2, HBsAG, HCV, and HIV-1ag using FDA-approved methods.

## Technological Characteristics

Human plasma immunodepleted of Factor VII; includes various buffers. Form factor: frozen or lyophilized. Compatible with standard clinical coagulation instrumentation. No software or electronic components.

## Predicate Devices

- Ortho Diagnostic Systems - Factor VII ([K883692](/device/K883692.md))
