Intended Use

For in vitro diagnostic use: Etest is a quantitative technique for the determination of antimicrobial susceptibility of both non-fastidious Gram negative and Gram positive aerobic bacteria, such as Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus and Enterococcus species and fastidious bacteria, such as anaerobes, Pneumococcus and Haemophilus species. The system comprises a predefined antibiotic gradient which is used to determine the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) in µg/ml of individual antibiotics against bacteria as tested on agar media by overnight incubation. This Etest 510(k) application is for MIC determination of Ciprofloxacin in the range of 0.002 - 32 µg/ml with non-fastidious Gram negative and Gram positive aerobic bacteria, and N. gonorrhoeae.

Device Story

Etest is a quantitative antimicrobial susceptibility testing device. It consists of a predefined antibiotic gradient on a carrier strip. The strip is applied to inoculated agar media; following overnight incubation, the antibiotic diffuses into the agar, creating a concentration gradient. The device is used in clinical laboratories by trained personnel. The healthcare provider observes the zone of inhibition to determine the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the antibiotic against the tested bacterial isolate. This result assists clinicians in selecting appropriate antibiotic therapy for patients with bacterial infections.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; device performance is based on established in vitro diagnostic principles for antimicrobial susceptibility testing.

Technological Characteristics

The device utilizes a predefined antibiotic gradient on a carrier strip for diffusion into agar media. It is a manual, in vitro diagnostic test requiring overnight incubation. No electronic components, software, or specific material standards are described.

Indications for Use

Indicated for in vitro diagnostic determination of antimicrobial susceptibility (MIC) of Ciprofloxacin (0.002 - 32 µg/ml) in non-fastidious Gram-negative and Gram-positive aerobic bacteria, and N. gonorrhoeae.

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.

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System = Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations. {1}------------------------------------------------ Page 2 Under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA-88), this device may require a CLIA complexity categorization. To determine if it does, you should contact the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) at (770)488-7655. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market. . .... ............ If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4588. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
