Indications for Use
The ImmuTest Multi-Drug Screen is a one-step immunoassay for the qualitative detection of multiple drugs and drug metabolites in human urine at the following cutoff concentrations: [Table of 17 drug assays with specific cutoffs]. The ImmuTest Multi-Drug Screen consists of three test formats: card, cassette and cup. The configurations of the ImmuTest Multi-Drug Screen consist of any combination of the drugs listed above. The ImmuTest Multi-Drug Screen is used to obtain a visual, qualitative result and is intended for professional use only. This assay provides only a preliminary result. Clinical consideration and professional judgment must be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly in evaluating a preliminary positive result. In order to obtain a confirmed analytical result, a more specific alternate chemical method is needed. Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) and Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (LC/MS) are the preferred confirmation methods.
Device Story
Lateral flow immunoassay for qualitative drug detection in human urine; available as dipcard, cassette, or cup. Device utilizes test strips to detect parent compounds/metabolites; visual readout of test and control lines. Negative result: test and control lines present; positive result: only control line present. Intended for professional use in clinical settings. Provides preliminary results; requires confirmation by GC/MS or LC/MS. Benefits include rapid, point-of-care screening for drugs of abuse.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical studies conducted. Performance characteristics validated in predicate submissions are applicable to this device. Analytical performance verification (bench testing) confirmed equivalent precision, analytical specificity, and interference profiles compared to predicates.
Technological Characteristics
Lateral flow immunoassay; visual readout. Consists of test strips for up to 17 drug assays. Form factors: dipcard, cassette, cup. No electronic components, software, or energy source required.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the qualitative detection of multiple drugs of abuse in human urine.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An amphetamine test system is a device intended to measure amphetamine, a central nervous system stimulating drug, in plasma and urine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of amphetamine use or overdose and in monitoring levels of amphetamine to ensure appropriate therapy.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). An amphetamine test system is not exempt if it is intended for any use other than employment or insurance testing or is intended for Federal drug testing programs. The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9, provided the test system is intended for employment and insurance testing and includes a statement in the labeling that the device is intended solely for use in employment and insurance testing, and does not include devices intended for Federal drug testing programs (*e.g.,* programs run by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. military).
