Special controls and performance standards #### III. Substantial Equivalence Claim - A. General equivalency claim The ability to monitor analyte-specific biochemical reactions in dry film and other formats is widely recognized and has gained widespread acceptance for use in chemistry assays. HDL-Cholesterol in vitro diagnostic products, in both dry film and other formats, are already on the U.S. market, including HDL-cholesterol products which utilize enzymatic (cholesterol oxidase) generation of hydrogen peroxide from free and liberated cholesterol which reacts with chromogens in a peroxidase catalyzed reaction to form a dye. #### B. Specific equivalency claim This CARESIDE™ HDL-Cholesterol test is substantially equivalent in principle, intended use, and clinical performance to the currently marketed Vitros slides for the quantitative measurement of HDL-cholesterol on the Vitros DT 60 II. | Name of Predicate Device: | Johnson and Johnson's (formerly Eastman Kodak,<br>Inc.)

Device Description CARESIDE™ HDL-Cholesterol cartridges are used with the Exigent Diagnostics CARESIDE™ Analyzer to measure HDL-cholesterol concentration in pre-treated serum or plasma specimens. The CARESIDE™ HDL-Cholesterol cartridge, a single use disposable in vitro diagnostic test cartridge, delivers a measured volume of pre-treated serum or plasma to a dry film to initiate the measurement of HDL-cholesterol concentration. The film cartridge (patent pending) contains all reagents necessary to measure HDL-cholesterol concentration. #### Explanation of Device Function A. Each Exigent Diagnostics CARESIDE™ HDL-Cholesterol cartridge consists of a HDL-cholesterol-specific multi-layer reagent film mounted in a plastic base with a hinged lid. The user introduces the pre-treated specimen into the cartridge sample deposition well, closes the lid and inserts the cartridge into the Exigent Diagnostics CARESIDE™ Analyzer. Once loaded, the CARESIDE™ analyzer scans the cartridge barcode, brings the cartridge and the contained specimen to 37°C, and spins the cartridge to move the sample from the sample deposition well into the cartridge channels and chambers. Ten microliters of sample remains in the metering passage. Any excess sample flows into an overflow well. The ten microliters of pre-treated sample is automatically dispensed onto the multi-layer reagent film. The spreading layer distributes the sample evenly on the film, and the sample moves through a reflection layer into the detection layer. Cholesterol is dissociated from protein by the action of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and a surfactant. Cholesterol esterase (CHE) hydrolyzes the cholesterol esters (CHOL-ester) to liberated cholesterol. Endogenous cholesterol and the liberated cholesterol react with oxygen and water to produce hydrogen peroxide in a cholesterol oxidase (CO) catalyzed reaction. Peroxidase (POD) then catalyzes the reaction of the hydrogen peroxide with a diarylimidazole leuco dye to produce a blue chromogen. The color intensity of the resulting blue dye, as measured by the amount of reflected light at 615 nanometers directly relates to the HDL-cholesterol concentration of the specimen. Test Reaction Sequence: LPL> CHOL + CHOL-Ester+ Protein HDL-Cholesterol -CHOL-Ester - CHE > CHOL (free) -> H2O2 + Cholesten-3one CHOL + O2 + H2O -POD Fe+2 Blue dye Leuco dye + H2O2 - As the cartridges spin, a photodiode measures reflectance of light emitted by a wavelength-specific light emitting diode (LED) at a fixed time. The analyzer uses the reflectance measurements and the lot-specific standard curve to calculate HDL-cholesterol concentration. {2}------------------------------------------------ #### B. Test Summary HDL-Cholesterol in blood comprises all of the cholesterol found in various lipoproteins. Cholesterol is the major component of the low-density lipoprotein fraction, and a minor component of the very low-density lipoprotein and high-density lipoprotein fractions. Cholesterol measurements are used in classifying patients according to risk of coronary heart disease, in the diagnosis and treatment of various primary or secondary hyperlipidemias, and to monitor changes in cholesterol levels resulting from treatment. Elevated LDLC has consistently been associated with incidence of atherosclerosis. There is also a strong correlation between considerably elevated cholesterol levels and an increased tendency for atherosclerosis. However, HDL- cholesterol concentration and cardiovascular disease risk are inversely related. Measurement of total and HDLcholesterol in serum is useful in evaluating cardiovascular disease risk. #### V. Intended Use - A. Intended Use The CARESIDE™ HDL-Cholesterol cartridge is intended for in vitro diagnostic use in conjunction with the Exigent Diagnostics CARESIDE™ Analyzer to quantitatively measure HDL-cholesterol concentration in pre-treated serum or plasma. - B. Indications for Use This product is indicated for use in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with disorders of lipid and lipoprotein metabolism. {3}------------------------------------------------ ## VI.
