## Indications for Use

Immunoassay for the in vitro quantitative determination of procainamide in human serum and plasma.

## Device Story

CEDIA® Procainamide Assay is a homogeneous enzyme immunoassay for quantitative measurement of procainamide in human serum and plasma. Input: patient serum or plasma sample. Principle: competitive binding assay using genetically engineered β-galactosidase fragments; procainamide in sample competes with analyte-conjugated enzyme fragment for antibody binding sites; reassociation of inactive fragments forms active enzyme proportional to analyte concentration; color change measured spectrophotometrically at 570 nm. Used in clinical laboratory settings on automated analyzers (e.g., Hitachi 911). Output: quantitative procainamide concentration. Healthcare providers use results to monitor therapeutic drug levels and adjust dosage, aiding in patient management and toxicity prevention.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance evaluated via precision studies (N=120 per level), linearity (0.4–20 μg/mL), and method comparison against the predicate (N=122, y=1.04x+0.03, r=0.9914). Interference testing performed for bilirubin, hemoglobin, lipemia, protein, and rheumatoid factor. Specificity evaluated via cross-reactivity studies with N-acetyl-procainamide and other metabolites.

## Technological Characteristics

Homogeneous enzyme immunoassay using genetically engineered β-galactosidase fragments. Detection method: spectrophotometric (570 nm). Form factor: reagent kit for use on automated clinical chemistry analyzers (e.g., Hitachi 911).

## Regulatory Identification

A digoxin test system is a device intended to measure digoxin, a cardiovascular drug, in serum and plasma. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of digoxin overdose and in monitoring levels of digoxin to ensure appropriate therapy.

## Predicate Devices

- Abbott TDx® Procainamide Assay ([K834464](/device/K834464.md))

## 4. Device Description

The CEDIA® Procainamide Assay is based on the bacterial enzyme β-galactosidase, which has been genetically engineered into two inactive fragments. These fragments spontaneously reassociate to form fully active enzyme that, in the assay format, cleaves a substrate, generating a color change that can be measured spectrophotometrically.

In the assay, procainamide in the sample competes with analyte conjugated to one inactive fragment of β-galactosidase for antibody binding site. If analyte is present in the sample, it binds to antibody, leaving the inactive enzyme fragments free to form active enzyme. If analyte is not present in the sample, antibody binds to analyte conjugated on the inactive fragment, inhibiting the reassociation of inactive β-galactosidase fragments, and no active enzyme is formed.
