Intended Use
The Sensititre 18 - 24 hour MIC or Breakpoint Susceptibility System is an in vitro diagnostic product for clinical susceptibility testing of non fastidious isolates. This 510(k) is for Ceftazidime/Avibactam the dilution range of 0.015/4-32/4 ug/ml for testing non-fastidious gram negative organisms on the Sensititre 18 - 24 hour MIC panel. The approved primary "Indications for Use" and clinical significance for non-fastidious Gram negative isolates: Enterobacter cloacae Escherichia coli Klebsiella oxytoca Klebsiella pneumoniae Proteus mirabilis Citrobacter freundii Citrobacter koseri Enterobacter aerogenes Proteus spp. Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Device Story
Sensititre 18-24 hour MIC or Breakpoint Susceptibility System is an in vitro diagnostic device for determining antimicrobial susceptibility. It utilizes microbroth dilution panels containing Ceftazidime/Avibactam. Clinical laboratories use the system to test non-fastidious Gram-negative isolates. The device provides Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) results, which assist clinicians in selecting appropriate antibiotic therapy for patients with bacterial infections. The system automates the susceptibility testing process, facilitating standardized results for healthcare providers.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence is based on bench testing of the antimicrobial susceptibility test system performance.
Technological Characteristics
Microbroth dilution susceptibility testing system. Dilution range: 0.015/4-32/4 µg/mL. Designed for non-fastidious Gram-negative organisms. In vitro diagnostic use.
Indications for Use
Indicated for clinical susceptibility testing of non-fastidious Gram-negative organisms (Enterobacter cloacae, E. coli, K. oxytoca, K. pneumoniae, P. mirabilis, C. freundii, C. koseri, E. aerogenes, Proteus spp., P. aeruginosa) using Ceftazidime/Avibactam in the dilution range of 0.015/4-32/4 µg/mL.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An antimicrobial susceptibility test powder is a device that consists of an antimicrobial drug powder packaged in vials in specified amounts and intended for use in clinical laboratories for determining in vitro susceptibility of bacterial pathogens to these therapeutic agents. Test results are used to determine the antimicrobial agent of choice in the treatment of bacterial diseases.
