Device Classification

Product Code QOF Multi-target Respiratory Specimen Nucleic Acid Test Including Sars-cov-2 And Other Microbial Agents
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 866.3981
Definition A Device To Detect And Identify Nucleic Acid Targets In Respiratory Specimens From Microbial Agents That Cause The Sars-cov-2 Respiratory Infection And Other Microbial Agents When In A Multi-target Test Is An In Vitro Diagnostic Device Intended For The Detection And Identification Of Sars-cov-2 And Other Microbial Agents When In A Multi-target Test In Human Clinical Respiratory Specimens From Patients Suspected Of Respiratory Infection Who Are At Risk For Exposure Or Who May Have Been Exposed To These Agents. The Device Is Intended To Aid In The Diagnosis Of Respiratory Infection In Conjunction With Other Clinical, Epidemiologic, And Laboratory Data Or Other Risk Factors.
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.
