Device Classification

Product Code PCH Gastrointestinal Pathogen Panel Multiplex Nucleic Acid-based Assay System
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 866.3990
Definition A Gastrointestinal Pathogen Panel Multiplex Nucleic Acid Assay Is A Qualitative In Vitro Diagnostic Device Intended To Simultaneously Detect And Identify Multiple Gastrointestinal Microbial Nucleic Acids Extracted From Human Stool Specimens. The Detection And Identification Of A Specific Gastrointestinal Microbial Nucleic Acid From Individuals Exhibiting Signs And/or Symptoms Of Gastrointestinal Infection Aids In The Diagnosis Of Gastrointestinal Infection When Used In Conjunction With Clinical Evaluation And Other Laboratory Findings.
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 Microbiology devices follow this clearance model.
