The assay may also be used to screen for HBV infection in pregnant women to identify neonates who are at risk for acquiring hepatitis B during the perinatal period. Assay results, in conjunction with other laboratory results and clinical information, may be used to provide presumptive evidence of infection with the hepatitis B virus (HBV) (state of infection or associated disease not determined) in persons with signs and symptoms of hepatitis and in persons at risk for hepatitis B infection. Not intended for use in screening blood, plasma, or tissue donors.

Important Safety Information: United States Federal Law restricts this device to sale and distribution by or on the order of a physician, or to a clinical laboratory; and use is restricted to, by, or on the order of a physician. Package insert instructions must be carefully followed. Reliability of assay results cannot be guaranteed if there are any deviations from the instructions in this package insert.

ARCHITECT HBsAg Qualitative Confirmatory

Intended Use: The ARCHITECT HBsAg Qualitative Confirmatory assay is a chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) for the qualitative confirmation of the presence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in human adult and pediatric serum and plasma and neonate serum by means of specific antibody neutralization. Assay results, in conjunction with other laboratory results and clinical information, may be used to provide presumptive evidence of infection with the hepatitis B virus (HBV) (state of infection or associated disease not determined) in persons with signs and symptoms of hepatitis and in persons at risk for hepatitis B infection. Not intended for use in screening blood, plasma, or tissue donors.

ARCHTECT Anti-HBs (AUSAB)

Intended Use: The ARCHITECT AUSAB assay is a chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) for the quantitative determination of antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) in human adult and pediatric serum and plasma (dipotassium EDTA, lithium heparin, and sodium heparin) and neonatal serum. It is intended for quantitative measurement of antibody response following hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccination, determination of HBV immune status, and for the laboratory diagnosis of HBV disease associated with HBV infection when used in conjunction with other laboratory results and clinical information.

WARNING: Not intended for use in screening blood, plasma, or tissue donors. The effectiveness of ARCHITECT AUSAB for use in screening blood, plasma, or tissue donors has not been established. Assay performance characteristics have not been established for immunocompromised or immunosuppressed patients. The user is responsible for establishing their own assay performance characteristics in these populations.
