Device Classification

Product Code PCG 21-hydroxylase Antibody (21-ohab)
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 866.5660
Definition For Semi-quantitative Determination Of Antibodies To Steroid 21-hydroxylase (21-oh) In Human Serum. The Assay May Be Useful As An Aid In The Diagnosis Of Autoimmune Adrenal Disease, Whether Expressed As Autoimmune Addison's Disease (isolated) Or Addison's Disease As Part Of More Complex Autoimmune Polyglandular Syndrome (aps), Type I Or Ii. The Assay Result Is To Be Used In Conjunction With Other Clinical And Laboratory Findings And Is Not A Substitute For Functional Testing Required To Diagnose Adrenal Insufficiency.
What this classification means

Class II devices require demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. This pathway does not require clinical trials - it relies on engineering equivalence and performance data. Most Immunology devices follow this clearance model.
