## Intended Use

The test is for the semi-quantitative combined detection of IgG, IgM and IgA autoantibodies specific for the Phospholipid Cardiolipin in huma serum or plasma (EDTA, citrate, heparin) The kit is intended to assess total anti-Cardiolipin autoantibody levels in patients where this information is useful in diagnosis, particularly as an aid in the assessment of thrombotic risk in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus or other lupus like disorders. Total anti-Cardiolipin levels represent one parameter in a multi-criterion diagnostic process.

## Device Story

Axis-Shield DIASTAT Total Anti-Cardiolipin is an ELISA-based in vitro diagnostic test. It utilizes human serum or plasma samples to detect IgG, IgM, and IgA autoantibodies against cardiolipin. The assay functions via an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay principle; patient samples are incubated in wells coated with cardiolipin; bound antibodies are detected using enzyme-labeled conjugates and a colorimetric substrate. The resulting optical density is measured to provide a semi-quantitative assessment of antibody levels. The device is intended for use in clinical laboratory settings by trained laboratory personnel. Results are interpreted by clinicians as one parameter within a multi-criterion diagnostic process to evaluate thrombotic risk in patients with SLE or related disorders.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided in the document; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

ELISA-based immunological test system. Analyte: IgG, IgM, and IgA anti-cardiolipin autoantibodies. Sample matrix: human serum or plasma (EDTA, citrate, heparin). Detection method: colorimetric enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

## Regulatory Identification

A multiple autoantibodies immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the autoantibodies (antibodies produced against the body's own tissues) in serum and other body fluids. Measurement of multiple autoantibodies aids in the diagnosis of autoimmune disorders (disease produced when the body's own tissues are injured by autoantibodies).
