## IV Device/System Characteristics:
### A Device Description:
The Xprecia Prime Coagulation System is intended to monitor the International Normalized Ratio (INR) of patients undergoing anticoagulation therapy with warfarin (Vitamin K antagonist). It consists of the Xprecia Prime Coagulation Analyzer (meter) and Xprecia Prime PT/INR Strips.
The Xprecia Prime system analyses a blood sample taken from the patient by fingerstick. The sample is transferred from the patient's finger to a test strip that has been inserted in the Xprecia Prime Coagulation Analyzer. The blood is mixed with a reagent contained within the test strip and the analyzer detects when clotting has occurred. The result is then displayed on the analyzer's screen in either units known as INR or in calibrated seconds.
### B Principle of Operation:
The Xprecia Prime Coagulation System uses electrochemical technology with amperometric (electric current) detection of thrombin activity to generate clot time. When a blood sample is transferred from the patient's finger to a test strip that has been inserted in the Xprecia Prime Coagulation Analyzer, thromboplastin activates the coagulation cascade which leads to the formation of thrombin. Thrombin cleaves the thrombin substrate creating an electrochemically active peptide, which generates an electrical signal. The signal is converted to an International Normalized Ratio (INR) value and the result is then displayed on the analyzer's screen in either units known as the INR or in calibrated seconds. The Xprecia Prime Coagulation System has been designed with integrated quality control functions in both the meter and the test strips. The meter performs a check of its electronic components and functions every time it is turned on. During each test, the meter looks for specific features in the strip's response that confirm the
{2}
presence of the reagents in the strips and indicate if the strip has been unacceptably degraded due to exposure to extreme environmental conditions.
## C Instrument Description Information:
1. Instrument Name:
Xprecia Prime Coagulation Analyzer
2. Specimen Identification:
Barcode scanner or onscreen keyboard
3. Specimen Sampling and Handling:
Whole blood samples collected from a fingerstick (capillary). Specimen is applied directly to the test strip after collection.
4. Calibration:
**Xprecia System PT/INR strips:**
Each lot of Xprecia System PT/INR test strips is factory calibrated to a reference lot of human recombinant thromboplastin traceable to the World Health Organization (WHO) International Reference Preparation (IRP). An International Sensitivity Index (ISI) and Mean Normal Prothrombin Time (MNPT) values are assigned by calibration for each lot and embedded on the barcode label on the test strip vial along with the lot number and expiration date.
**Xprecia Prime Coagulation Analyzer:**
When the analyzer is first turned on, the instrument performs a series of electronics, signal, software and memory integrity checks, as well as ensuring there is sufficient battery voltage to operate the Xprecia Prime Coagulation Analyzer. Failure to pass any of these power-on tests will prevent further operation of the analyzer.
5. Quality Control:
**Internal Quality Control**
The Xprecia Prime Coagulation Analyzer has a number of integrated quality-control functions:
- Component and function check is performed every time the analyzer is turned on.
- Barcode information on the strip and vial are read by a scanner inside the Xprecia Prime analyzer. The analyzer then checks:
- the strip’s expiration date and lot information, and
- the strip’s integrity.
- During the test, the strip’s integrity is monitored. The strip’s temperature is also controlled to ensure test results are reproducible.
**External Quality Controls**
The Xprecia Prime Coagulation System is only to be used with the Xprecia Systems PT Controls (Liquid quality control (LQC) solution Level 1 and 2; K151964). External controls should be performed with every new lot, new shipment, or as required by local, state, and federal or national regulations. New operators should perform LQC prior to starting to
K230802 - Page 3 of 13
{3}
perform patient testing. Use of external QC ensures that the Xprecia Prime Coagulation System is working as designed. Each Xprecia Systems PT Controls kit contains two levels of vials of plasma and diluent. The reconstitution of the LQC requires the user to pipette the diluent solution into the plasma vial and let the solution stand for at least 5 minutes. The INR target of the reconstituted LQC 1 will be around 1.0 INR and LQC 2 will be in the therapeutic range of oral anticoagulant therapy, INR of 2.0–4.5.

A Analytical Performance:
1. Precision/Reproducibility:
Intermediate Precision
A single site intermediate precision study was performed by two trained operators over the course of 20 non-consecutive days with two runs per day and two replicates per run. Each operator used three Xprecia Prime PT/INR strips lots, six Xprecia Prime Coagulation Analyzers, and three levels of quality control material (K151964 – Xprecia System PT Control Level 1 and 2 and K771346 Ci-Trol Coagulation Control III). The 20-day precision of the Xprecia Prime Coagulation System has been demonstrated to be within the acceptance criteria at each control level and for each cartridge lot. The results of this study demonstrated acceptable within-laboratory precision for all three control levels.

Repeatability
The repeatability data was collected from the method comparison study performed at four CLIA-waived sites. Two capillary samples (two fingersticks) collected from each subject were tested by the same untrained operator using the same meter and the same strip lot, resulting into a total of 399 paired tests (132 normal subjects and 267 warfarin subjects). The study was performed by 11 untrained operators using three Xprecia Prime PT/INR test strip lots and 12 Xprecia Prime Coagulation Analyzers. Data analysis was carried out by site, all sites combined and by clinically relevant ranges. The mean, pooled standard deviation, %CV and their respective 95% confidence intervals (CI) for INR were calculated for each subject level. The table below summarizes this data for all sites combined. The results of the study for capillary samples demonstrate the Xprecia Prime Coagulation System repeatability is acceptable.

## Reproducibility
The reproducibility of the Xprecia Prime Coagulation System was performed at three external CLIA-waived sites. Testing at each site was performed over five non-consecutive days in the hands of two untrained operators at each site (n=6 operators). Each operator tested two levels of quality control materials (K151964 – Xprecia System PT Control Level 1 and 2) twice per day with a minimum of two hours between each run. Each quality control level was tested in triplicate (2 operators x 1 run/operator x 3 replicates x 5 days = 30 observations for each site per QC level). All results passed the established acceptance criteria.

2. Linearity:
Not applicable.
3. Analytical Specificity/Interference:
The interference performance of the Xprecia Prime Coagulation System was evaluated in the presence of potentially interfering endogenous or exogenous substances. The effect of each substance at each INR level (normal and therapeutic) was evaluated by comparing the performance of a test sample spiked to a high concentration of the substance and a control sample spiked with an equal volume of solvent. For an identified interferent, a dose-response was performed to determine the degree of interference as a function of the substance concentration. The common exogenous and endogenous interfering substances and their interference results are listed below and showed no significant interference up to the indicated concentration for all samples tested.

## Hematocrit
The hematocrit range was evaluated for the Xprecia Prime Coagulation System using capillary samples from 371 patients across four intended use sites in the Method Comparison study. Capillary samples for INR determinations using the Xprecia Prime Coagulation System, citrated plasma samples for the central laboratory INR using the Sysmex Automated Blood Coagulation Analyzer CS-2500 (K172286), and the measured EDTA venous whole blood hematocrit for each test subject were used in the analysis. Hematocrit was determined using Sysmex XN-11 (K141681), Sysmex XN 9000 (K112605), or Sysmex XS-1000i (K081610) analyzers. Data analysis demonstrated that hematocrit range between 25–55% does not significantly affect test results.
## Factor Sensitivity
The factor sensitivity for factors FII, FV, FVII and FX was determined using samples prepared by combining normal plasma, red blood cells, and factor-deficient plasma with various percent (%) factor activity ranging from 0%–100%. Each factor was tested at 11 factor activity levels with three strip lots and eight replicates per lot on 24 Xprecia Prime Coagulation Analyzers. The mean clot time calculated for the normal plasma sample (sample without pooled factor deficient plasma) is the average clot time in 24 Xprecia Prime Coagulation Analyzers (8 analyzers x 3 strip lots). Based on CLSI H47: One-Stage Prothrombin Time (PT) Test and Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) Test; Approved Guideline - Second Edition, factor sensitivity was calculated based on the factor level at which the PT rises above the upper limit of the established reference interval. The sensitivity of the Xprecia Prime Coagulation System has been characterized to Factor II–50%, Factor V–60%, Factor VII–50%, and Factor X–60%.
## 4. Assay Reportable Range:
The assay reportable range of the Xprecia Prime Coagulation System was established through method comparison studies. The reportable range for INR is 0.8–8.0 and for PT in seconds is 9.6–96.0.
## 5. Traceability, Stability, Expected Values (Controls, Calibrators, or Methods):
### Traceability
The traceability of the prothrombin time test on the Xprecia Prime Coagulation System has been established against a reference lot of human recombinant thromboplastin traceable to the World Health Organization (WHO) International Reference Preparation (IRP). Xprecia System PT/INR test strips lots manufactured by Universal Biosensors have been calibrated
K230802 - Page 10 of 13
{10}
using the rTF/16 (WHO 5th International Standard Thromboplastin, Human, Recombinant, Plain).
## Shelf-life Stability for Xprecia Prime PT/INR Strips
A real-time shelf-life stability study was conducted using three lots of Xprecia Prime PT/INR Strip lots at 5°C with ambient relative humidity (RH) and 30°C with 75% RH storage conditions. Three levels of quality control material (K151964–Xprecia System PT Control Level 1 and 2 and K771346–Ci-Trol Coagulation Control III), unaltered whole blood samples to reflect normal INR range and warfarin treated samples to reflect therapeutic INR range were tested at time zero and ten different test events: 4.5, 6, 7, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, and 27 months. The stability results for the Xprecia Prime PT/INR Strip lots support a shelf-life of 24 months at 5°C–30°C with < 75% RH.
## Open Vial Stability
An open vial stability study was conducted using one lot of Xprecia Prime PT/INR Strips. The vials were opened 25 times over a 3-month period at both 5°C with ambient relative humidity (40 ± 20% RH) and 30°C with 75% RH storage conditions. Three levels of quality control material (K151964–Xprecia System PT Control Level 1 and 2 and K771346–Ci-Trol Coagulation Control III), unaltered whole blood samples to reflect normal INR range and warfarin treated samples to reflect therapeutic INR range were tested at time zero and three different test events: 7, 15, and 24 months. The stability results for the Xprecia Prime PT/INR Strip lots support an open vial storage claim of 20 months at 5°C–30°C with < 75% RH.
## In-Use/Out of Vial Stability
An in-use stability study was conducted using one lot of Xprecia Prime PT/INR Strip lots at 5°C with ambient relative humidity (RH) and 30°C with 75% RH storage conditions. Three levels of quality control material (K151964–Xprecia System PT Control Level 1 and 2 and K771346–Ci-Trol Coagulation Control III), unaltered whole blood samples to reflect normal INR range and warfarin treated samples to reflect therapeutic INR range were tested at time zero and ten different test events: 4.5, 6, 7, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, and 27 months. Strips were assessed by exposing strips out of the vial for the following times at each test event: 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, and 12.5 minutes out of the vial. The stability results for the Xprecia Prime PT/INR Strip lots support an in-use or out of vial storage claim of 10 minutes 5°C–30°C with < 75% RH for the entire 24 months of the shelf-life.
## Transport Stability
All the Xprecia Prime PT/INR Test Strips vials tested for real-time shelf-life, open vial, and in-use studies were subjected to the described shipping simulation prior to placing them into their respective storage conditions (5°C / 30°C) to ensure that the stability studies performed would reflect real world performance of the product. Three lots of strip vials were subjected to Pressure Decay Testing and then placed into an environmental chamber for the shipping simulation. The shipping trial consists of a transport simulation followed by a 3-day freeze/thaw cycle to simulate temperature stress as they are transported. Strips have met all acceptance criteria for closed vial, out of vial, and open vial studies, after being subjected to an AR4 temperature profile followed by three freeze-thaw cycles, to represent worst-case transport conditions. Therefore, the transport simulation requirements have been met and the product is appropriate for ambient shipping/ transport.

## B Comparison Studies:
1. Method Comparison:
The method comparison study was performed at four U.S. point-of-care clinical sites with CLIA Waiver certificates. Group 1 consisted of 320 patients on warfarin therapy for at least six weeks prior to enrollment and Group 2 consisted of 130 healthy, normal subjects. The study was conducted with three lots of Xprecia Prime PT/INR strips and 12 Xprecia Prime Coagulation Analyzers by 11 untrained operators. Each patient had two fingerstick samples collected by the untrained operator for testing on the Xprecia Prime Coagulation System and the predicate, Coaguchek XS (K060978). The Xprecia Prime Coagulation System is substantially equivalent to the CoaguChek XS System.
| Method Comparison Results for Xprecia Prime Coagulation System vs. Roche Coaguchek | | | | | | |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Analyte | N | Xprecia Range | CoaguChek Range | Slope (95% CI) | Intercept (95% CI) | (r) |
| INR | 401 | 0.8–7.7 | 0.9–7.9 | 0.96 (0.939, 0.985) | -0.01 (-0.083, 0.065) | 0.97 |
| PT (seconds) | 401 | 9.7–91.5 | 10.5–95.3 | 0.962 (0.940, 0.985) | -1.131 (-0.998, 0.736) | 0.97 |
In addition, a venipuncture was performed for PT and INR determinations on the laboratory method, Sysmex Automated Blood Coagulation Analyzer CS-2500 (K172286). Capillary results from the Xprecia Prime Coagulation System demonstrates acceptable comparison to venous whole blood collected in 3.2% citrated tubes on the Sysmex Automated Blood Coagulation Analyzer CS-2500.

1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
